Vital game for the Blues

Andrew Rogers

KERANG comes up against Swan Hill at Riverside Park on Saturday in a vital game that will help shape the top five.

If the Blues lose the Central Murray Football Netball League’s A grade match of the round — and Tyntynder downs Cohuna — it will see the Bulldogs jump ahead of the Blues.

It would not be inconceivable for the Blues to then turn the tables on the Bulldogs in the last fortnight of the season, but it would take a big effort.

Important players will include Ingrid Condely for Swan Hill and Courtney Wright for Kerang.

Both have had strong seasons in attack with 442 and 346 goals respectively. They are also first and second in the league MVP, with Swans Kelsey McCoy, Madeleine Foott and Blue Katelyn Wright also in the top 10.
