    With Coolgardie likely missing O Wines and B Ebert from the midfield, while already missing D Astbury and J Short from the backline, and question marks over O Fantasia and B Parfitt up forward (plus still missing W Rioli and J Watts, and not even giving J Waterman a chance), we're going to just hand the next game to our opponents on a silver platter.
    So, congratulations Cow Bay @fresh on the upcoming win!

    King Island 1090 def by Ararat 1271
    @insider

    It was never really a contest as the Armadillos continue their strong start to the season, again looking like flag contenders, while the Monarchs struggle to stay in touch with the main pack.

    As has been the case all year, it was the dominance of the Armadillo backline that set up the win for the visitors with 3 tons, including a best-on-ground 145 from Luke Ryan. The midfield was solid, fed by an unopposed Max Gawn (127) after Hickey yet again decided not to front up. For the home side, new recruit Haynes (132) was a shining light in a depleted Monarchs backline and Macrae (107) and the rejuvenated Boak (102) tried hard as usual but it was another story of too much left to too few.

    As always Ararat are just doing enough each week to get the wins and keep themselves at the pointy end of the ladder whilst King Island look forward to the returns of Broadbent and Natainui to help them return to relevance.

    3 Ryan
    2 Haynes

    Top notch review!

    Fitting for what must be one of the greatest matches in ORFFU history!

    Even worked in a Madonna reference!

    Great work @YAD69

    I just hope we can come away from Xmas Island without catching whatever is going around out there.

    Close-ish affair out at The Swamp with a few disappointing scores being posted. The home side holds a 135 point lead at the moment

    Cow Bay 623 / 8 / 77.9
    Coolgardie 488 / 7 / 69.7

    Callum Brown (126) and De Goey (114) the only 2 to ton up so far.

    At the Dino Dome, the home side Is in the lead:-

    Hughenden 988/12/82
    Panthers 786/10/78

    Can Hughenden hang on for a win or will they choke again for another loss.

    Heading into the last 3/9th's, it's the Blowflys holding a handy 96 point lead on home soil over the visiting Barcrawlers.

    KB 869 / 10 / 87
    BB 773 / 9 / 86

    Still to come -
    KB - Tuohy, Ablett, Goldstein, Mundy, and Walters
    BB - Impey, A. Kennedy, Cunnington, E. Langdon, Dahlhaus, S. Higgins

    The Blowflys Menegola is a very late out, which brings young Gallucci in up forward for cover. This could be a tight finish!...

    Isaac Smith and Marley Williams have decided to stay and have tea with their mums, so the Smugglers are down to nine. Very high likelihood of setting our lowest score for the third time this season!

    The Barcrawlers are finishing strongly at the Terrordome. Only 30 points behind now with 1 extra player in rotation as we hit 7.5/9th's time. The home side will need to dig deep to hold them off!...

    The Barcrawlers have stuck there heads in front at 8.5/9th's time. With a 2-1 rotational advantage its the Blowflys who are making a barnstorming finish!

    After an exhillariting 4 point nail-biting win last week, Korumburra are aiming to do it back to back! Gonna be another bob of the head at the line that decides this horse race!
