Match of the round.

I'm guessing this will be a hotly contested affair.

I reckon Wedgie will get BOG.

Tough to tip.

North by a goal.

Eagles by 5 goals, have Norths measure

I do think the winner of this loses the grand final.

eags by 20pts

So that would mean the loser of this game wins the Grand Final?

I’d like to see if the Eagles have any ins this week
Still think it will be a hard fought close game .

You can deflect better than that.

Former Power forward Aaron Young returns to play across half-forward while premiership defender Tanner Smith is on the extended interchange.

Impressive tall Dyson Hilder joins him along with pacy wingman Billy Hartung, who has recovered from his latest hamstring setback.

Veteran ruckman James Craig has been sent back to the Reserves.

ADELAIDE

Keen to see how the Roosters stack up against a top tier outfit, having won four on the trot against sides outside the top five. Reckon the Eagles might just shade us, but it'll be a close one either way - the last clash at Woody Oval was only decided at the death (and that day North had a number of chances to seal the win and didn't).

Interested also to see if Hartung plays, and if he does, whether he can survive the full match without suffering an injury.

Who's Simpson?

I think that shield is reserved for North v West matches.

What, and deprive us of some comedy relief?

You've got my vote to say on the island as a fellow punster.

Dillon-Dietrich Cup.

Nice one.

Or, for the perfect swap in terms of timing and playing position, the Roberts-Dietrich cup.

I'd go for Trevor Hill, Max Parker or Barrie Barbary.
Looking forward to the day, I'm treating a Woodville past player and life member to the President's Lunch.
Peter Scwartz is the guest speaker and will get a nice surprise when he gets heckled from a former team mate.

O'Hara-Grocke Cup seeing as though they were traded for each other.

Can we just call it "who will Robbie Young get Involved with cup". Wait, that will be any match he plays in.

Would pay for someone to knock robbie youngs head off - hes the most hated player in the SANFL - work with a few guys who play against him & everyone dispises the bloke
