INGREDIENTS for a potential round of upsets have been mixed.

The injury-hit Pyramid Hill is at home to buoyant Mitiamo. The Bulldogs are likely to be without Bailey George now taking his spot in the growing line being treated in the trainers’ room.

George’s ability to win the hard ball across midfield may have been tempered a little this year but his on-field influence has continued undiminished. With a cloud over his selection this week

SENIORS and Mitiamo injecting life into the final month of home and away games like the Superoos of old, that 24-goal thumping back in round six could be reversed.

The tip is with Bridgewater to take the points against Calivil. On paper, that’s a given.

However, the young Bridgewater team could be without regular best Symons. His loss will add to the challenges of rebuilding and up against a gritty Calivil back from the bye, will put another layer

Bears Lagoon Serpentine won the third quarter when it last met Marong. The Bears have continued improvement while Marong is, well, cruising.

Expect more fight from the Bears this time even though Marong looks too strong.

The final match of the round should see Newbridge crack its fourth win of the season over the patchy and disappointing Maiden Gully.
