You'd say that all the sides that played only 1 game in the last 3 or 4 weeks are going to have the upper hand having the fresh legs and all

But then again, only playing 1 game in 4 weeks can also be a downfall too ;)

How many blokes are left in the side from EP's Grand final appearance a couple of years back? ( I call it an appearance because they didn't do much else ;) )

Fair enough I was just going on what I had read here that EP were pretty highly rated from day dot and perhaps PHOS not so. Didn't take in to account recent events.

From D2-D7, the only team who played in a Prelim that I think will win will be Eastern Park. In every other division, I think the team who won the Second Semi will win the flag.

Admittedly, I don't know a lot about PHOS, but I know alot about EP's midfield and forward line, they are a quality unit and they'll take some beating.
