Round 14
Rosewater vs Marion: The battle for 5th place.
Ingle Farm vs Elizabeth
St Pauls OS vs Mawson Lakes
Trinity OS vs Blackfriars
Battle for 5th:
Marion - ROS (A), ML (A), PH (H), BOS (A), ELZ (H)
Rosewater - MAR (H), PH (A), BOS (H), ELZ (H), SPOS (A)
Para Hills - BYE, ROS (H), MAR (A), ML (A), BOS (H)
Para Hills wont win enough, they'd have to win their next 3 after the bye (possible, but unlikely), and make up 4%.
Marion look well placed with matches to Mawson Lakes and Para Hills at home to come, finish with two tough games which may impact percentage. This week's game vs Rosewater could well be the decider on who gets 5th.
Rosewater have a very hard finish, need to win this week at home, and then account for Para Hills.. even then, percentage behind Marion, would need to ensure they're competitive at the least in the remaining 3 games.
Relegation:
Mawson Lakes take one spot, Ingle Farm and Para Hills battling desperately to avoid the second.
Farmers face 2x top 3 sides in the next fortnight, that alone might see the wheels totally fall off, then have Mawson Lakes before hosting another top 5 side in Trinity OS. The bye in the last round ruins any further chance to gain points.
One win might be enough to get ahead of Para Hills, should they only win one more also. Not a lot in the percentage at the moment - Saturday's loss for Ingle Farm badly hurt them.
Could well come down to Round 18, and the Farmers cheering on the Hounds to do a serious number on the Roos to keep themselves in this grade.
