Ex Students v CATS
THE all conquering Ex Students go into its final TDCA match knowing it has secured top spot on the ladder.
On the other hand CATS is in a sudden death elimination contest; a win will secure a final four spot and a loss will see them ousted.
Ex Students will be hard to beat, and has form across the board.
Lee Stockdale and Michael Warne have been first rate, while Jimmy Pryde could be vital come finals time.
Dan Nicholls, Stan Grazotis and Brett Chapman will need to make big scores.
Gormandale v Churchill
AFTER a two week bye the Tigers will enter this game fully rejuvinated.
In a boost for the Tigers, Grantley Switzer and Adam Brady will be back in the side and Shaun Barbour, after more than a month off bowling, is fit and ready to go. Churchill put up a good effort last week and will be out to spoil the Tigers’ party.
