Round 7 - Korumburra Blowflys vs Staghorn Flat Bulls

The Blowflys (10th) are on the road again this week, leaving lush Gippsland to travel North towards the NSW border to take on the Bulls (5th). The Flys have been worked over on the track this week after dropping another winnable game in Gisborne. They will need to bring their A game to beat Staghorn Flat who have an imposing 3-0 all time record against Korumburra.

Only the one change at this stage with Jarrad McVeigh making a welcome return (providing he passes a final fitness test tomorrow). Billy Hartung makes way but is still a possible late call up with Menegola carrying a niggle.

OUT : B. Hartung (rested)

M - R. Sloane, M. Barlow, L. Picken, S. Menegola (EMG B. Hartung)

F - M. Walters, S. Johnson, M. Kennedy N. Cockatoo (EMG P. Puopolo)
IC - J. Redden, J. McVeigh (EMG A. McDonald-Tipungwuti)

 

Just the one change for the Buffaloes this week as we travel to Banchang to take on the 'other' overseas team. Thankfully the scheduling boffins have been kind to the club and we have been able to save our pennies during the recent 3 game homestand so we are taking a full compliment of players on the overseas adventure.

Just the one change from last weeks team though that upset the Bunyips with Nick Haynes going out with an unfortunate long term injury that has forced the rushed return of defensive enforcer Steven May. Tom Hickey will also travel with the squad in his bid to overcome his recent mental health problems as he begins to come to terms with the clubs new winning culture.

IN: May
OUT: Haynes

D: Jarrod Harbrow, Steven May, Jasper Pittard, Martin Gleeson (Smith)
M: Patrick Dangerfield, Zac Merrett, Josh Kelly, Jack Steven (Aish)
R: Billy Longer (Hickey)
F: Charlie Dixon, Sam Reid, Jack Riewoldt, Joe Daniher (Matera)
I: Jared Polec, Jamie Elliott

 

Your Round 7 Southern Cross Sandgropers for the trip to Pakenham to take on @ddsaints Parasites in the Battle of the Bugs IV.

DEF: M.Hibberd, J.McGovern, M.Hurley, H.Taylor (H.Crozier)
MID: M.Duncan, N.Fyfe, B.Crouch, B.Cunnington
RUC: P.Ryder
FWD: W.Hoskin-Elliott, D.Smith, J.Stringer, J.Darling (W.Milera)
INT: D.Sheed, C.Rioli (M.Paparone)

A win for either team would see them move to 4-3 and likely into the top 8. There's a lot at stake for both sides with the head to head currently sitting 2-1 in the Sandgroper's favour. Go Gropers!

 

Christmas Island Round 7

In: D. Menzel
Out: D. Beams (Quad)

D: S. Hurn (c), H. Hartlett, M. Williams, M. Johnson

More carnage at the Bunyips sees us going around again without enough players to fill a full team (2 x OOP). 2017 has been a tough year so far, management are hoping the MSD will help get us back on track. It's 6 V 7 this round as we host @YAD69 Barracudas. It's going to take a miracle to get over the line, but one can only hope!

DEF: Laird, Marchbank, Geary, Atley
MID: Pendles, R Gray, S Mitchell, Ziebell (Langford)
RUC: Jacobs
FWD: Cameron, Lambert, J Kelly (OOP), Stanton (OOP)
