SOUTH Barwon and Bell Park are set to face off in a finals-defining clash tomorrow (Saturday, July 26) in the GFL seniors, with the winner to take fifth spot on the ladder.<\/p>\n
The Dragons presently hold that fifth spot on 32 points, while the Swans sit just two points behind.<\/p>\n
South Barwon is coming off a draw against Leopold – the first in two years – which puts the Swans in sixth with five rounds to play.<\/p>\n
An inaccurate Bell Park outfit only pulled away in the last quarter to beat the struggling Geelong West Giants in a match the Dragons will want to put behind them as the side chases back-to-back final appearances.<\/p>\n
Colac will host St Josephs this weekend and be looking to solidify its spot in the top four and add to its three-game winning streak.<\/p>\n
St Josephs was well beaten by St Mary’s in Round 13, and will look to regain the strong form that sees it atop the ladder. But, a loss against the Tigers could see Joeys drop to as low as fourth.<\/p>\n
Leopold face the ninth-placed Giants at home in a clash the side must win to remain in check with the top six and keep the Lions’ chances of a three-peat alive.<\/p>\n
North Shore will hunt for its second win of the year against an improved St Albans side at Windsor Park. A win for the Supersaints would be the club’s second in three matches.<\/p>\n
Surprise packet Newtown & Chilwell will continue its strong run home, hosting 10th-placed Grovedale at Jardon Oval.<\/p>\n
St Mary’s will aim for its tenth win of the year against Lara, who begin a challenging month which sees the Cats face five finals fancies in a row.<\/p>\n
