A&EHCA A Grade kicks off next Saturday with 3 of the 4 opening round matches played on Turf
Langhorne Creek v Woodside
Strathalbyn v Nairne
Ashbourne v Hahndorf
Wistow v Lobethal
Hard to make too many confident predictions coming into a new season but here goes.
Creeks are looking to break an opening round drought that extends back to 2003/04 season apparently.
There was nothing between them in the Prelim Final last year and one could expect this game to either way as well. Ive tossed the coin and its come down ..................... a TIE
Strath after winning 6 of their 1st 7 games last season then went on to lose their last 9
They are better than that and would be eager to get off on the right note but run into Nairne 1st up who again would undoubtedly be favorite to win the Flag again. Tip - Nairne
Ashbourne v Hahndorf i have no idea. No idea who or if Ashbourne have recruited from overseas again and with Hahndorf being out of A Grade for the last 3 seasons its hard to judge how they wil handle the return. Tip - Ashbourne
Wistow v Lobethal. Wistow coming off a winless season will again start underdog in most games they play tho one would expect they'd snag a few wins this year at least surely? Lobethal would be a short price to finish Top 4 so to do that they cant be losing this one 1st up. Tip - Lobethal
