How are all teams shaping up coming into finals ? And who are the Leo graham chanches from each club this year ?

Final Round this weekend 4th Williams play Boddington 1st, Wickepin 5th play Narrogin 3rd, with just 0.6 % difference, a spot in Finals will go down to the wire for the 45th & 5th sides. Katanning still a chance to grab top spot, play struggling Kukerin Dumbleyung, and Brookton/Pingelly play Wagin for the Cellar Dwellars Cup.

Should be a great Finals series, will be four good sides. Boddington maybe not playing at their peak at the moment, Katanning when good are good, but have a habit of going missing, Narrogin, have been the quiet achievers all year. Williams if they make it, are the smokies on past history, Wickepin, if play at there top can beat anyone, but known to have off days.

Leo Graham, will be tightest contest for years I am thinking, no stand out.

My tip James Laurino Katanning.

Williams 4th, Wickepin 5th, beat Boddington 2nd & Narrogin 3rd, but Wickepin missed Finals on %, most probably best team to miss playing in Finals for sometime. Williams have come good at the right time, and Narrogin will be worried going into 1st Semi at Wagin Sunday, Williams should have too much experience and get the job done.

Season has ended for Wickepin as we said, and they have the neucleus of a good side going forward if they can retain players. Kukerin Dumbleyung struggled all season after big player losses from 2016 and be interesting to see where they are at over the next few years. Brookton Pingelly need to back to square one and rebuild around some good local talent, with the right recruits. Wagin, also are in a bad spot with plenty of work to be done to be competitive again

a wet few weeks

Mid Season 2018, and Katanning who proved far too good last year to break a long Premiership drought & their first in Uppers, if anything are far stronger this year, with the basis of last years side adding Kade Stewart from Hawthorn, Billy Collier (SF), an injury free Adam Carter, it is hard on results so far seeing anyone get close to them.

Boddington, Wickepin & Williams are going along steadily and up to last weekend looked the likely top 4 teams, until Narrogin threw their hat into the ring beating Williams. Narrogin who were runners up last year, lost a heap of players in the off season, and are just starting to get some good team footy going, so the final 3 Finals positions may play out right to the final Round behind Katanning.

Kukerin-Dumbleyung are a bit off the pace, though competitive have no chance of making finals, and Brookton-Pingelly & Wagin have not improved on last year, and have their own Mini Finals series over 3 matches to see who will be Wooden Spooners.

Any updates on the UGS , can Katanning be beaten? Leo Graham Medal chances?

Leo on tonight have not seen as many games this season, but Bravington chance to go back to back, Simon Panizza may get votes off him. Katanning have many good players who will share many votes between them. Will not be many games where they do not get the 3,2 & the 1. Kade Stewart been very good since returning from Hawthorn.

Williams got home in 1st Semi over Narrogin after a tough battle. Katanning should be too good for Boddington this Sunday 2nd Semi. Not sure Williams can beat a full strength Boddington in a Prelim Final the week after.

Winner of Leo Graham!!!

Kade Stewart- Katanning

Runner up
Simon Panizza- Williams

Third-
Jye Depane- Boddington
Nathan Bravington- Williams

Cheers Kirbs - some good players in that lot.

Katanning through to the GF as expected though Boddington had the lead early and were close enough at 3/4 but could not go with them in the last.

This Sunday Bodd v Williams will be close but I think Bodd will just get home with their bottom 6 better than Williams
