Was going to say not a typo but it probably is as there is one most weeks.

Sturt lost badly to a depleted North last week whilst Glenelg thrashed Centrals by a point.

Sturt to farewell a couple whilst Glenelgs season will continue.

Glenelg should while Sturt might,

Kirkwood gone for the year with his back apparently based on SANFL medical report.
He would have got votes last game at the Bay.

This result will depend on who we rest to freshen up for the finals. If you're thinking of having a wager on this game, don't.

Third straight season Glenelg have faced Sturt in a dead rubber in the last minor round game.
I would expect McBean & Proud will definitely be rested. As posted elsewhere, giving Snook the week off may possibly cost him the Magarey.

McBean a hot chance at the Ken Farmer trophy. If he's rested I hope the Eags do the same with Jimmy Rowe.

Ken Farmer the last thing on the Bays’ mind currently.

If Glenelg rest McBean, then it doesn't matter what the Eagles do with Rowe as he is already two ahead : so JR would be the KF medalist.

By the way, when is this year's Magarey Medal count? Also, I wonder how will it be run, given current COVID restrictions?
