The Roosters will be very keen to bounce back against the top-of-the-table Bloods, especially after they were shown up by the Magpiess, last week. The home side will have George Thring face the tribunal for an alleged striking charge as well...

Westies are now 2 games clear on top and are still finding ways to win, despite not playing their best football, yet. These 2 sides have a bit of feeling at Prospect over the years, this will be another good one, I'd suspect...

North by 1 goal.

On last weeks form, West, on North's last few years form losing to bottom sides and beating top sides, North to win by enough

North will get up this week.

Best way to beat North is to be out of the 5 ...

North to kick 2 goals for the game then

West would need to lift their form to beat the Roosters, our last 5 weeks have been pretty ordinary even though we have won 4 out of the 5. Our skills need to lift. Both Birss and Ezard should come back into the team.

What AFL listed players will line up in both camps? Might be the difference.

I think West will only have Crouch

It's a Sunday game, Norths history over the years for wins on Sunday isnt great

Will wait till I see North's side before I pick a loser

Really feel for Ezard, a Magarey Medalist playing in the 2's again. I worry his speed may be keeping him out of the line up at the moment.

For me, Jimmy is vying for one spot with Dean and Hill. Maybe when/if Crouch gets called up there may be a spot for him.

Ezard is my favourite player but his form has been down this year but he will be back. I think his shoulder is still a little sore

North to break the Sunday hoodoo and win by 28 points

At Prospect you would always pick North.
Should be a good game and would expect some fireworks too !

If North turn up and play anything like last Sunday we will be beaten easily and the only fireworks will be those coming from our own supporters!

Bloods to win by 15 points.

Just finished reading Zac Milbank's match preview and I found the following quote from Andy Collins very interesting?

"You want to play these games. There were some actions from the last time we played North Adelaide that we didn’t appreciate as a playing group. You’ve got to have a video to have a look at them.’’

What does he exactly mean by that? He was not happy with his own players or with North's players and some off ball action that I must admit I didn't see from either team?

That is interesting. I didn't see any off the ball incidents either
