Canning --> GF

Quinns (1st) vs Mosman Park (3rd) @ Ridgewood Park
Well the mighty Quinns empire has fallen to the hands of Canning, who have earnt their right to play off in the C2 Grand Final. Not much written about the game, but I am sure it would have been a cracker. Quinns will be out with a vengeance and may be treating that loss as the wake up call they needed... it was better to lose that game than the grandy. Mosman Park it seems somewhat controversially have made it through another week of finals - in the end that is all that matters. They are a highly skilled and fast side, maybe just lack a few big bodies and older heads like the Quinns and Canning sides. I can't see Quinns losing again, and think although Mossie will fight to the end, they will have their Mad Monday in 4-days time.
Quinns by 5-goals.

Quinns --> GF

Canning (3rd) vs Warnbro (2nd) @ Ridgewood Park
A re-match of the finals fixture two weeks ago at the MudPit... On that day I was lucky enough to see the game and as mentioned, it was clear the Tigers wanted to win more than the Warnbro guys. Canning already have their League side in the final dance, and would be a massive effort for the club if the Two's can follow. Warnbro clearly fought back after a disappointing effort two weeks ago to beat a spirited Swan Valley side. The question begs, whether Warnbro have qualified a few guys in the two's now their Legaue side is out, and the same must be asked whether a few of the Canning fringe players will play this week with the League having a rest. Will be a cracker of a game. I am going to tip a reverse of the result two weeks ago and a Warnbro win.
Warnbro by 3-goals.

Canning Vale --> GF (Fantastic effort from our Colts and big deal for the club as we chase our third flag in our first three seasons)

Swan View (1st) vs Bassendean (5th) @ Brown Park
Interesting to note MadDog said Swan View didn't play their best side last week, not sure what the go is there but it sounded like sour grapes. Swan View are a very good side and have a few tasty players running around selling candy! They will be hurting as a club after three losses last week and the day starts with the Colts, theywill be hoping to come out with a bang. Bassendean will be hurting after a heart-breaking and controversial loss in the League game last week. The Colts have done well to get this far coming from 5th on the ladder. There is no doubt they have talent in this side and another interesting point will be whether Yarran and a few of the other Colts age League players will play this week. I would expect them to, which adds another dimension to an already intriguing contest. Can Yarran fire and pick his team up to overcome a very slick and vengeful Swan View side?? Honestly tough for me to pick a winner here, but simply because Swan View were the team to beat all year, I will pick them - but wouldn't be surprised if Yarran kicks a bag for a Basso win.
Swan View by 3-goals.

As always gentlemen, good luck to all.

Quinns to SMASH Mossie
Canning to win
Basso to win with more than Yarran included, not a 1 man side! A massive help but so are the existing players and other few who should drop down. Should be a good game, only seen the one colts game this year so looking fwd to it.

Wasn't saying he was a one-man team, mate. But he pretty much beat our League side off his own boot, so imagine he could do the same in a Colts fixture.

I agree though, we had a few players drop back to the Colts for the finals and in all honesty, they have helped but its the lift from players around them that has been the biggest positive. It's like they grow another leg simply because a few extra guys are in the side. As you said, should be a cracker!!
