They are just starting to show what they can deliver. New blokes have taken some of the pressure off the Clonans and Smiths and Challens. i don't think they will lose more than one more game for the year.......

How is Scotty Challen going this year a forma Shoe Boy.

I think Gaza will come strong finals time.. i think Henley and Sals North will fight out the 5th spot.. I think this year is one of the hardest years to tip the premier.. Form has been up and down with un-expected results all over the place. In an earlier post I tipped a Goodwood Henley GF. This is getting more and more unlikely but if Henley regain there touch come finals who knows. Gepps Cross have improved immensley but whats to say they wont get finals jitters being a relatively young side and not much div 1 finals history in recent times. Many sides have peaked early and stumbled at the final hurdle. People have to remember Gaza are a well experienced side who have played alot of finals and sadly this may be what finds Gepps Cross out.

Barring injuries I think Goodwood will be there on the day and a fight for the contender will be Gaza and outsider Salisbury north.

I play in the BL&G league but went to watch the gaza/gepps game on the weekend and gaza just had an off day. I've seen a number of gaza games this year and when their midfield fires like redetti & butler & co. they look unstoppable. I reckon Gaza/Goodwood grand final.

That same midfield didn't look too good on Sat but you obviously won't give any credit to the Gepps midfield, just put it down to an "off day". Campbell, Smith etc killed them, just because you play in the Barossa, you can still give credit where it's due or don't you believe in that theory?

hello, he feels Gaza had a bad day.. Is he not free to his opinion?? He at no stage said Gepps dont have a good midfield. My OPINION is Gaza'z midfield is classier then Gepps. Not by alot but on the day its whos midfield fires that really counts and Gaza's didnt. Credit must go to your boys but I dont think he was implying Gepps midfield are below par. And what exactly does it matter what league his from. I bet if he said a float ya boat comment about Gepps you'd think his a marvelous human being.

Definitely not taking anything away from gepps i also saw the last encounter the two teams had earlier in the year. Gepps looked pretty good on both occasions but Gaza when on song look really dangerous. I also watched a salisbury north game they are pretty good defensively they tackle harder than any team i've seen.!

this a not a big call BH, it's a huge one. a few games to go yet and i think it might come down to where each team finishes in the 5.

On any given day, any of the top six teams could take the flag. Gaza were put under enormous pressure at the centre bounces against Gepps and got smashed in the clearances, something thier not used to and I strongly doubt that they will allow it to happen again. Gaza were also very sluggish in ruck apart from No 25 who always gives a good account of himself. Gepps are travelling along quite nicely and Jason has a lid on things, and agree with you C.C, still a fair bit of improvement to be had.

Number 25 for GAZA is that Kapelle? Heard a lot about him the past couple of seasons, how is he going this year?
