Finals Week 2: Preview

28 Aug 2015 by Wembley Magpies

COLTS: Semi Final 2 v Collegians – 10:40am @ Millington Reserve

Previous Meetings –
2015, Round 17: Wembley 8-12-60 defeated Collegians 4-3-27.
2015, Round 8: Wembley 9-11-65 defeated Collegians 8-7-55.

The Colts will be fresh after a week off and will be looking to make it three-from-three against Collegians for 2015 with the winner going straight into the Grand Final.

B RESERVES: Semi Final 1 v Swan Athletic – 12:35pm @ Wanneroo Showgrounds.

Previous Meetings –
2015, Round 16: Wembley 8-7-55 defeated Swan Athletic 5-11-41.
2015, Round 7: Wembley 10-6-66 defeated Swan Athletic 9-8-62.

After going down to Whitford in the Qualifying Final last week the Seconds will need to bounce back against Swan Athletic at what will no doubt be a mud pit out at Wanneroo Showgrounds if they are to keep their season alive for 2015.

B Grade: Semi Final 2 v Scarborough – 2:30pm @ Millington Reserve.

Previous Meetings -
2015, Round 18: Wembley 13-3-81 defeated Scarborough 10-9-69.
2015, Round 9: Wembley 8-10-58 defeated by Scarborough 10-9-69.

A resounding victory over Wanneroo in the Qualifying Final last week means that the Firsts are now just one win away from the Grand Final and also a place in A Grade for 2016. While it is not do or die just yet the Firsts will be looking to make sure it doesn’t come to this and will be looking to book their place in the decider this weekend.

D2 RESERVES: Semi Final 2 v Hamersley Carine – 12:35pm at MacDonald Reserve.

Previous Meetings –
2015, Round 12: Wembley 11-5-71 defeated Hamersley Carine 3-4-22.
2015, Round 5: Wembley 10-10-70 defeated Hamersley Carine 0-6-6.

Going undefeated through the regular season will count for nothing if they are not able to carry this form right through until the final game of 2015. A win here will send either side straight through to the Grand Final while the loser will take on either Whitford or Kalamunda the following week.

D2 GRADE: Semi Final 2 v Whitford – 2:30pm @ MacDonald Reserve

Previous Meetings –
2015, Round 10: Wembley 8-10-58 defeated by Whitford 9-6-60.
2015, Round 3: Wembley 8-8-56 defeated by Whitford 8-9-57.

If the previous two encounters between these two sides are anything to go by then the Thirds will be in for another close and nail-biting match. The winner will progress straight into the D2 Grand Final while for the loser a second chance awaits the following week against either Kingsley or Kalamunda.
