Round 13: South v West - Sunday 30 June @ Hickinbotham Oval

South v West

Sunday 30 June
Hickinbotham Oval

Reserves: 11:25am
League: 2:10pm

South are coming off another hammering, this time to Norwood, while West hammered Glenelg.  Will South manage to notch up a win at home, or will West make it another big win?

unfortuneately another 100 point thumping coming up

I don't think it'll be that bad.  I'm going to tip West here, but only by 5-6 goals.

League
F: N. Daniel, Shaw, C. Daniel

League
F: Slattery, Moran, Fielke
HF: Silverlock, Webb, Beech
C: Birss, Schmidt, R. Anderson
HB: Bricknell, Ferguson, Hill

R: P. Nelson, Macreadie, Tuck
INT: Ezard, Crouch, Still, Homburg, Rankine
IN: Ezard, Homburg, Still, Rankine
OUT: Keough (soreness), Green (soreness)

Crouch named in crows 21 so he'll be out. Rankine the other out for mine.

David Mackay could be late in for South. Out of crows team. Not sure if omitted or injured.

McKay was dropped and is not the travelling emergency

Stribling leaving is a big blow in the short-term, but you're better off without players who leave because of the coach.

Westies by a lot. 10+ goals

This might sound crazy but I am concerned for this game. South will turn the corner at some stage and with David MacKay in this might be the day. Could it be a line in the sand day?

Is McKernan an in for South too?

He plays for Glenelg

Ah yes, forgot that, cheers.

We have had a couple of those this season. Westies are winning but not convincing. South are a chance but I am not convinced. We are missing Rolfe so much, have no one pushing up to take his role.

I'm a bit the same, Brodlach. Reckon they may come out and show a bit of ticker this week and show something. A bit like Melbourne last night.

Snook is of similar build and trying to fill the void but just hasn't delivered after showing glimpses at the start of the year.

Nothing to worry about today Westies' fans. Seriously.

West easily 10+ goals. They are the real deal.

I hope we are wrong BloodnTars

Late change to the Blouds I am hearing

Unfortunately we were right. You could tell early on that we weren't interested.

Ive done fairly well in my tipping this year but have made some shocking predictions about individual games. Like this one. Might be the kick in the pants the Bloods need. Still like them to salute this year.
