Round 11 is upon us, and the whips are cracking in C3. There are still two sides fighting out the battle for relegation, and there is still time for SNEZA to get back into the top 5 if they can continue on from last weeks result and continue to beat sides above them. My thoughts for this week are as follows

Swan View v Secret Harbour - Careful what you say Tony, the boys from secret Harbour may drop this game by heaps if they can get a few freebies for the long drive home. Hopefully they can get 2 sides on the park, however me thinks that driving 80Km round trip for a tough game may be to much for Secret Harbour. bring your EFTPOS card Tony your gonna need to put your money where your mouth is champ. Swan View by heaps to move into the top 4

Ellenbrook v Manning - Ellenbrook are slipping nicely into top gear now and the results last week mean they hold second spot outright. They will be keen to win here to stay firmly entrenched in the top three. Manning were touched up last week and depth may be an issue in the colder part of the season. I expect Ellenbrook to easily account for them this week.

Ballajura v Dianella Morley MOTR in my opinion - Third v Fourth Interesting situation here, both sides have lost two of their last three after looking like the teams to beat after the first 6 rounds. With one of the Garlett boys not playing forward recently DM have had trouble kicking a winning score, can they turn this around this week? Ballajura have stumbled recently but I think they are a decent side and have a good set up. This will be a cracking game, the winner keeps alive the chance of a double spot, the looser will drop to fifth and could only be 1 game ahead of 6th spot by Saturday night. DM have some big bodies around the ball but Ballajura have a setter structure to get the ball forward if and when they win it. I think Ballajura at home in a close game, but it really depends who turns up for these sides. Ballajura just

Piara Waters v Cockburn lakes - This game was close in round 2, and I expect the return game to be just as close. Cockburn have proven recently by getting so close to Ballajura that when they play their way they can compete with any side in this grade. Piara had a big win last week and will need to not be complacent. Inaccurate kicking last time these sides met allowed Piara to win the game at the end of the day, I expect this to be close but I expect Piara Waters to run away in the end of the day

Swan Valley v SNESA - The Valley had a good win last week against Cockburn, and they have some big strong bodies. SNESA has a good side with a band of runners and if allowed the space to move they will beat sides easily, just ask Balla boys from last week. SNESA won round 1 by about 6 goals, and if given space to run will be to good here. The Valley will need to keep this game in close and make it physical, if they do that they will win, however I expect SNEZA to win and keep alive their hopes of pinching 5th spot.

Some big games coming up this weekend that will go along way towards shaping the season. have fun as the weather looks like being kind to everyone, enjoy the game and enjoy the beers afterwards.

Good write up PH,your best of the season!

There is no way in hell that if Fat Tony is the man I think he is,will put $500 on the bar for the lads. However I've no doubt that he will be adding to his forever growing wasteline! I reckon he hasn't been able to see his dick while pissing for some 25 years he's that fat haha

thanks Maddog, looking forward to your thoughts.

FYI your being kind with your comments on 25 years.......

Some very important games coming up this Saturday!

SWAN VIEW vs SECRET HARBOUR - This may seem to many as a game where Swan View get it done with ease and no doubt they should but this game is as important as any in The Views season! With the current trend being 100+ point floggings and even 200 points last week,it is imperative that The View put the foot on the throat from the start and do not relent!!! Percentage could be the only thing between 5th/6th after 18 rounds and it could also be the difference between a home final or not. First time around the margin was only 3-4 goals so The View missed a trick early when Secrets were competitive.
What I think you'll find is that the League team for Secrets will be more competitive when the Ressies forfeit as they won't have guys doubling up. That being said I really do hope they can get enough for 2 games. Surely they'll get enough together for 1!
Because they'll only get the 1 team Fat Tony will save himself $500 as the margin will be below 150.
The View by 17 goals.

EELENBROOK vs MANNING - The corresponding fixture early in the season was close with Manning giving the Eels a run at home. I don't think that will be the case this time around! While a couple of teams are faltering mid season The Eels will wait till crunch time before they have their common slip up and in the mean time will continue to build expectation and ego. Manning have had their bit of improvement and will again start to find things tough before a late season resurgence against lowly teams.
The Eels by 10 goals at least.

Ballajura vs Dianella - 3-4 weeks ago we'd be saying this is a huge game between 2 contenders. Now it's a huge game for either team to get out of a mid season hole! The loser,as stated by PH,could be vulnerable in the 5!
Amazing how Dianella's League team are in decline but the Ressies knocked off the top team?! Balla got pumped by a team coming off a 12 goal hiding?! Don't really see any lads from either club on here to give us an insight but I'm sure there's some excuse!
Anyway,the same reasons I've used several times this year in that Balla should have good depth I'll pick them but who knows what either team will deliver.
Balla by 2 goals.

PIARA WATERS vs COCKBURN - PH don't give too much credit to the Warriors,they aren't any good! You'll flog em at home if you aren't resting half your side!
Piara by 10+ goals.

SWAN VALLEY vs SNESA - This should be a good contest! The Valley have improved with a couple of decent ins and would take some confidence from last week. They are always a tougher opponent at home in front of the shed!! Snesa hit back hard last week to stay in contention and if they are to make the 5 they can't drop games to teams below them. They too would be up and about.
I'm tempted to tip The Valley at home but Snesa have too much to play for.
Snesa by 2 goals.

I wasn't sure if it was because I was so fat or because I had a really small penis.

Hey mad dog!
I'm from balla bud. Just a few off weeks for us. Slow starts have hurt us past two games hoping to bounce back strong this week
Cheers
