There is only one game to really talk about.
The Blue and White army vs the team with the most premierships in history. It's incredible how the stars have aligned for this match. Not only has the Rugby boys, got the chance of a lifetime to all but lock up the AAGPS Premiership, which if they were to win it outright would be the 1st time since 1969. An eternity between drinks. But the Football boys have an oppertunity to snap up the prem as well. Plus old boys day, and pure factor it is Joeys, sets this game alight, more than any other in recent memory. Let's talk about the teams:
SHORE- 2 seasons in 1. They struggled to get off the ground. But in saying that they lost all their games within a try. Boy, did they get hot quick. Winning 4 on the trot, last week's game quite poetically was like their season, started snail slow, but got hot quicker than the local chinese's wok. Rex Bassingwaighte, and Henry Conick took over, with Jai Callaghan playing a rare side act. That is without talking about the sheer brilliance of Marshall Le Maitre, and some other forwards like Ethan Hamilton who had a day out against Kings. This SHORE side is young, fearless and ready for this matchup.
Joeys- It has to be said, they are Joeys. They are clutch. There is no doubt they will show up for this game. They are capable of winning anytime and anywhere. The loss of Johannes Logan, will be major. He is a force in defence, and with their defence in a bit of trouble, it compounds the issue. They could be in real strife in defense, with one of the best attcks in the GPS staring them down. Joeys' chance comes from starting super quick, and by scoring so much that SHORE cannot catch up, because they are going to get in multiple times.
No one in the right mind would ever count Joeys out. But for me, SHORE are peaking perfectly, and are going to be a beyond tough ask to beat. Being at the Bridge, which is a new AAGPS fortress, I find it hard to see Joeys winning this.
My Tip: SHORE +12
This is going to be fun
