The Vics are going have a depleted bowling attack and If Harwood is out, that will be a massive blow
The Bananas will miss Harris and if Noffas does not play, thier bowling is depleted as well
The Vics will welcolme back Hussey and White for the final

The Vics top5 will be the difference
quinney
rogers
hodge

Qld rely too much on Carseldine and Hopes to score thier runs [can Roy do something this season for qld if plays?]
Qld will have a good chance now that the Vics are short of bowlers [and especially if Harwood is an out]
However that top5 should win the game for the Vics
Suggest we follow Dutchys lead and back the Vics, but not too much
