The Run Home

1ST – KERANG

RECORD – 13 wins, 0 losses

PERCENTAGE – 232.04

Round 15 – Cohuna Kangas (A)

Round 16 – BYE

Round 17 – Balranald (A)

Round 18 – Woorinen (H)

RUN HOME

Tough run home for the reigning premiers, starting with a grand final replay tomorrow. Still need to win two of their final three matches to be guaranteed top spot, but may have dodged a bullet after last Saturday’s one-point win over NNW United.

PREDICTED FINISH – 1st


2ND – BALRANALD

RECORD – 11 wins, 1 loss

PERCENTAGE – 176.60

Round 15 – Koondrook-Barham (H)

Round 16 – Lake Boga (A)

Round 17 – Kerang (H)

Round 18 – Swan Hill (A)

RUN HOME

Locked away a top three spot with last weekend’s win over Woorinen. Need to beat Kerang in round 17 to be any chance of claiming top spot, along with other results going their way, too.

PREDICTED FINISH – 2nd


3RD – WOORINEN

RECORD – 10 wins, 3 losses

PERCENTAGE – 182.76

Round 15 – BYE

Round 16 – Koondrook-Barham (A)

Round 17 – Lake Boga (H)

Round 18 – Kerang (A)

RUN HOME

This week’s bye has come at the perfect time for the Tigers, giving them the chance to freshen up after last Saturday’s loss to Balranald. Still need one more win to lock away a top three spot, which should come next weekend against the Raiders.

PREDICTED FINISH – 3rd


4TH – LAKE BOGA

RECORD – 7 wins, 5 losses

PERCENTAGE – 118.69

Round 15 – Tyntynder (A)

Round 16 – Balranald (H)

Round 17 – Woorinen (A)

Round 18 – Koondrook-Barham (H)

RUN HOME

A tough run home makes tomorrow’s game against Tyntynder a must-win. If all results go as expected, will most likely finish the season on 36 points, along with NNW United and Swan Hill, so an upset win against either of Balranald or Woorinen could be needed.

PREDICTED FINISH – 6th


5TH – COHUNA KANGAS

RECORD – 7 wins, 5 losses

PERCENTAGE – 115.21

Round 15 – Kerang (H)

Round 16 – Swan Hill (A)

Round 17 – Tooleybuc-Manangatang (H)

Round 18 – Mallee Eagles (A)

RUN HOME

Win against Kerang tomorrow and the Kangas are as good as playing finals. Next Saturday’s match against Swan Hill will be the one that defines their season, with very winnable games against the Saints and Eagles to come.

PREDICTED FINISH – 4th

6TH – SWAN HILL

RECORD – 7 wins, 5 losses

PERCENTAGE – 96.70

Round 15 – NNW United (A)

Round 16 – Cohuna (H)

Round 17 – Tyntynder (A)

Round 18 – Balranald (H)

RUN HOME

Win both games against NNW United and Cohuna in the fortnight and the Swans will play finals, lose and its all over. Are as good as a game behind Lake Boga and Cohuna thanks to their poor percentage, so will need to win three of their last four to be any chance.

PREDICTED FINISH – 7th


7TH – NNW UNITED

RECORD – 6 wins, 7 losses

PERCENTAGE – 129.82

Round 15 – Swan Hill (H)

Round 16 – Tooleybuc-Manangatang (A)

Round 17 – Mallee Eagles (H)

Round 18 – BYE

RUN HOME

Could well rue their missed opportunity against Kerang last week, with the Demons now needing to win their last three games and have other results go their way, with the bye in the final round only going to make their job harder.

PREDICTED FINISH – 5th
