Great match here. The young guns will fancy their chances against Morley and are well deserved favourites in this match. Morley have been very solid at home and know their greens and the relentless wind So well. I have to tip Joondalup to win in what will be a very close game.
Joondalup 6-2

What a game this us going to be , Yokine shooting for 4 straight wins and full of confidence whilst my Mounters will be livid after last weeks loss and will want to make amends. I still see Mt Lawley as the benchmark so a great test for Yokine should they be able to win this game they will shoot to the new favourites for promotion. Mt Lawley just pack to many punches for mine and at home you’d be a brave man to tip against them. I’m not known for my bravery so Its my Mounters to bounce back for me.
Mt Lawley 7-1

Welcome home Swannies I hope they have been Practicing on their greens because its been a while. The last time they played their they lost a tight game to Sorrento by 5 or so shots. Doubleview have been great and should start favourites here only due the ladder positions and shots for and against but I’m going for an upset here and am going to tip Swan to get back in the winners list in a tight one.
Swan 6-2

Mundaring so good at home the last two weeks have kick started their season and Manning have poached their leading skip in Piggot to there blue South rink so that will hurt them. We know Mundaring struggle on the grass and Manning would be well aware of that hence the loading up of their top side. I just find it very hard to tip Mundaring away from home as they have let me down to many times but I must congratulate then on fielding there sides for us to see its appreciated. Manning to strong at home for mine.
Manning 7-1

Great game this one and a chance for Sorrento to get back on track. Anything under 25 seconds will see North beach struggle as they just love speedy greens and are giant killers at home but away from home they do struggle. I still rate Sorrento very highly and they will be looking to bounce back hard here and I think they will.
