Getting in just a little bit earlier to build some hype for the game this week. Our boys are undefeated in the Harold Matthews this year and now take on the Tigers in an elimination final for a spot in the Grand Final.
While their eye-catching attack dominates my highlight videos (and justfiably so!) it is their steelclad defence that has surprised onlookers this year. Defending with resolution and aggression that you would only really expect in the senior grades, they average somewhere around just 8pts conceded per game. Jesse Cronin, Josh Curran and Tui Afualo form three of the pillars here, laying on stinging shots with terrifying consistency.
Hopefully I haven't put the mockers on them as they have been a marvel to watch this year!
Kickoff is at 10:30am tomorrow out at Pepper Stadium St Marys.
As always you can find the stream on my YouTube channel.

Hey mate, I was thinking I might have been able to get out there as the junior round has been washed out, but appears I've got to shuttle another of my boys around. Timing is quite nice - drop him off at 10, then I can find a nice quiet place and tune into your stream!
You're a good man, Forty. Thank you.
Yeah it is, hopefully Forty doesn't turn up to Pepper stadium.
Haha, I swear I knew it but when typing it out on my tablet my brain thought otherwise - will update the OP!
Updated the OP with a direct link to the livestream. Just over two hours to kick off for those that are planning to watch the game today!
Oh I'm planning Forty
All set up! Unfortunately I have had some issues with my overlay system so no scoreboard on the stream itself this week. I will try to post updates in this thread as teams score though.
Alex Seve is out, no official replacement announced but I believe Dallas Patterson will take his place.
