TOPIC:

Once again results were reasonably predictable but perhaps not the margins. Hamersley Carine belted Coolbinia, Kwinana did likewise to the hapless Raiders, Gosnells over Kenwick, High Wycombe disposed of Swan Valley and Mosman Park took care of SNESA.

The Bulldogs Valley game was good to watch and better than the margin suggested. High Wycombe got off to a fast start, by the time The Valley got going it was always going to be a struggle to peg them back. The bulldogs were far more efficient going forward and the margin steadily increased. Lewis Jetta pulled the boots on with his brothers, he showed a bit of razzle dazzle on occasion and it will be interesting to see if he stays with the Bulldogs for the rest of the season.

We're at the half way mark with some big games this weekend. 

Coolbinia v Mosman Park

The Falcons have obviously lost players and Mossies should handle them comfortably to keep their distance from the pack chasing the top five.

Dianella Morley v Gosnells

Its the Hawks turn to rack up some percentage.

High Wycombe v Hamersely Carine

1 v 2 and the only game the Hawks dropped in the first half of the season was this one. The Bulldogs are taking all before them and I cant see them dropping one at home. 

SNESA v Kwinana

I don't know if it's injuries or FIFO or something else but the ex-Scholars have struggled of late and need to rebound to stay in touch with the top five. Hard to see that happening against the knights on current form, even at home.

Swan Valley v Kenwick

The Valley were not disgraced against the top side on Saturday despite the margin and will be looking to boost percentage at home against a struggling Royals outfit. Kenwick are a proud club though and The Valley boys would not want to take them lightly. it'll be a big day at The Valley with Sponsors Day and the Past Players for the 1971-78 teams that won 7 premierships in 8 seasons.

Good luck to all.
 

Hey dingo, thoughts on how your end of season ladder will look like?

My tips for Round 10:

Round 10 Tips:
Coolbinia  v Mosman Park
- Mosman Park to have a significant win here, based off their round one win.

Dianella Morley v Gosnells.
 - Gosnells...

High Wycombe v Hammersley
- This should be a cracker, potential grand final preview! Im going with High Wycombe by 4 points

Snesa v Kwinana
- Kwinana, given Snesas recent form slump

Valley v Kenwick
- Valley by a lot.

Its hard to see the ladder changing too much but with 9 games to go 2 games is obviously possible to make up. The Valley missing out on the big percentage boost against DM in the cancelled round 3 could hurt them if they drop some games they shouldn't.

Heading into the back end now. I can’t see the ladder changing too much, maybe valley and mossy could change places pending on there games. If High Wycombe win this week I can’t see them dropping any games and they will hold top spot.

first time round seen mossy get up by about 10 goals, should be same result once again also.

gossy by a lot!!!

snesa really need to pull there finger out and get a move on, only went down by a goal last time they met kwinana, unfortunately I think they are going backwards and are probably more focused on how many they can qualify for there twos.
kwinana by 6 goals 

high wycombe I think will get the edge over the hawks, well drilled and led by Jetta, plenty of doggies that like to get in and get there hands dirty
to get up by 3 goals 

valley should get the job done over kenwick by 5 goals 

good luck everyone, let’s enjoy Saturday as it looks like it’s going to be wet and cold for the next few days.
