Some very interesting match ups this week.:
Werewolves v Badgers shapes as the match of the Round and will probably decide whether badgers make the Top four.
Steins v Giants has some interest for positions in the Bottom 4 Chance to lift above for one of these teams.
Hedgehogs v Owls in a must win game for both especially the Owls if they are to keep their chances of a final 8 position alive.
Hoods v Hurricanes 2nd v 4th so may have a bearing on the make up of top 4 as well.
If both Hoods and Werewolves are beaten we my see 6 teams on top of the ladder separated only by %

First - I'd like to thank my co-coach Jukes and my time at the Swindon Swaggers has been a learning experience!

I'm also excited about taking on the Crosby Cruisers!... And to find they have just as many injury concerns as the Swaggers had lol. Finals look beyond us, but are optimistic for next year.

Am looking for an assistant coach during trade period...

@Ringo - I notice on the list of 45 that Gilbert is listed twice? Is there a player I don't know about somewhere? A forward or ruck would be nice!

M: M Boyd, Jack Redden, T Boak, K Simpson

F: S Johnson, D Hale, Jordan Murdoch, K Mitchell (OOP)
I: J McVeigh, D Jackson
