Premier League Finals

Elimination Finals; Women, North Adelaide v. Forestville. The Rockets have been thereabouts for most of this season. They won the title from a similar position in 2014, but seem a little lighter on talent this year. Forestville started slowly but worked themselves into a finals spot and have covered the loss quite well of some key players over the past few years. Hillcrest and their passionate supporters will provide the Rockets with an opportunity to advance, but it will be one that slips through their fingers. The Eagles in a 2pt thriller, maybe even going into overtime.

Men; Woodville v. Forestville. What a match up. After a 3 point nail-biting win at the Showground in July, the Eagles will go in with confidence. Who will gain the vital ascendency to propel them to the Semi Final? This game has the potential to go right down to the wire, but I think the margin will be a comfortable 18 points. The Warriors have a bit to prove and Forestville might have spent everything they had when they triumphed last time. Woodville will travel next weekend, while the Eagles make end of season arrangements with a Travel Agent.

Qualifying Finals; Women, Southern Tigers and West Adelaide. After a lengthy period of ordinary years, the Tigers have finally found their mojo and look real hungry. The Bearcats made it to the Semi Finals last year and have finished two spots higher this time. West will give this a good shake, but look to be a player short of really matching it in Morphett Vale. After a tense first half, Southern will run away with it by 25 points. West will need its 2nd chance and next week at Port Adelaide, they might even live to fight another day.

Men; Norwood v. Sturt. A classic for all ages in the SANFL, and in the BSA Premier League too. The Flames have as good a top four players as anyone, well drilled and experienced. Sturt has a great opportunity for redemption and if they can quell the influence of two of the big four, they will give themselves a huge chance of heading South next week for the Big Cat battle. Pencil the Sabres in for this one by 8 points.

This post is just my thoughts, and you may agree or disagree. Anything can happen on game night. Get along to one of these games and witness some high quality Basketball. Show your support and enjoy the contests.

Week 1:

Women: Norwood with a break.
Tigers v Bearcats @ Morphett Vale: Cats haven't beaten the Tigresses all season, unlikely to start now.
Rockets v Eagles @ Hillcrest. Bye, bye birdie.

Men: Tigers with a break
Norwood v Sturt: Grab your popcorn and get ready for some argy bargy. Sturt grow an extra leg in finals, but the Norwood old timers are too crafty and will control the game like the CIA control anti-government rebels.
Warriors v Eagles: Eagles are too old and too slow for the faster, younger Warriors, who should squeeze past the Eagles if they keep their heads in the game.

Week 2:
Women:
Norwood v Tigers: Barring all ISIS action, Norwood's fresh legs will be just one of the factors going their way.
Bearcats v North: These teams are evenly matched and this will be like two cousins fighting over a toy at their grandparents. I'm thinking Norf might just sneak this one.

Men:
Tigers v Flames: If week 1 was good, this should be great. I'm thinking Tigers will maul the Flames. No soup for J Diddy this week.
Sturt v Warriors: Sturt won't lose two in a row. Like having to pay tax, you'll have to say a Sturt win should be certain. Warriors needs a clever accountant or else finish their tax return early.

Boti's Darwin preview only mentions Sobey and Teys missing their final game in NT:

Nathan Sobey and Brendan Teys will miss the third match due to previous commitments.

Kings have just defeated the sharks by about a 50 point margin. Jarrod Weeks was most impressive aswell as good performances from khazzouh and janev and some highlight reel dunks from McCollough. Just wondering does anyone know where damien ryan is? Im sure he signed with the kings.

Wildcats game starts in about ten minutes, taking on the ducks 7'9 sun ming ming. Goodluck matty knight.
