Well here we are at Round 7.... and it's back to me doing the write up. So, should it be JetsBet, LenBet, VROTip??? No it's another crappy bookmaker trying to get something out of a season in which he realised he can't coach - it's DockShocks! Pomona Wood Nymphs @anthak 4-2 v Como Comets @FreoDockers 1-5 The Comets finally got their first win last week (hey Chloe!!) but still find themselves buried at the foot of the ladder. Which unfortunately is where they will stay as the Nymphs will treat this as a training exercise and percentage booster. DockShocks - Nymphs by about 250 depending on whether they even bother to turn up Junee Jets @Chloe 3-3 v Bathurst Belles @Len 3-3 The classic 8 point game, in which the winner will still only get four points.... A win either way could help a back end run to the finals. DockShocks - With the Jets losing last week, they just might lose again. Belles by 100 Manildra Mystix @Batfink 1-5 v Glenbrook Galahs @ver_redit_optatum 6-0 Gulp. Sorry Batfink, but geez the Galahs have been ridiculously good so far this year with an unbeaten run unlikely to change this weekend. This business of being a jetsetting coach is clearly working! DockShocks - Galahs by, I dunno, lots I think Eastern Park Dragons @YAD69 1-5 v Scone Sirens @Tracey 2-4 I smell something brewing here... and apologise for it in advance. I think the Dragons might just cause a little upset here in what will be the closest game of the weekend DockShocks - Dragons by 6 Timboon Trailblazers @Peter W 3-3 v Lake St Clair Devils @dmandrews 3-3 Another game that the 4 points means so much for one of these teams. The Trailblazers have hit some form in the last few weeks and my really ordinary tipping skills thinks they may do enough this week to notch the win against a long time experienced opponent. DockShocks - Trailblazers by 25 Vivonne Bay Valkeries @That KI Guy 5-1 v Wongan Hills Wallabies @Schmitty 4-2 The Valkeries find a way to keep winning but this will be one of their toughest matchups yet. The Wallabies are ready to hop up the ladder (get it? hop? oh well) so they will need a big team effort to get this win. DockShocks - Absolutely no idea how this one will go. So let's pick a draw. THURSDAY START!! THURSDAY START!!! Its AFL grand final weekend so we all have less than 24 hours to get our teams in for Round 7, so get them in before bouncedown 5.15EST TOMORROW!
The Como Comets team to be belted by the Wood Nymphs is: Def: Rylie Wilcox, Jess Rentsch, Lucy Cronin (Hannah Priest) Mid: Jaimee Lambert, Dayna Finn, Mimi Hill, Hayley Miller (Zippy Fish) Ruc: Lauren Bella (Piper Dunlop) Fwd: Katie Brennan, Taylah Levy, Aishling Moloney (MacKenzie Eardley) IC: Eilish Sheerin, Jordyn Allen (Lucia Painter)

I despise locked teams on a Thursday before we know what the rest of the round looks like, so will be proposing a rule change that works in all the AFL leagues I am in for next year That said I think the Belles are lucky to have options on each line in case of a no show. This weeks team to face one of three Junee teams, but the only only one baring the name Def: Emily Pease, Maeve Chaplin, Molly Brooksby - Laura Hausegger Mid: Keeley Sherar, Mikayla Bowen, Ellie McKenzie, Laura Gardiner - Sarah Howley Ruck: Eilish O'Dowd - Jess Allan Fwd: Ella Maurer, Tarni Evans, Eliane Grigg - Paige Scott IC: Erone Fitzpatrick, Megan Fitzsimon - Madison Brazendale Changes: Out Mullins (inj) In Maurer
