MetrO League's first foray to William Howe Reserve near Mt Annan has just about decided our finalists with a round still to go.
It was steep in parts, it was spiky in parts, it was open in parts - and setter Dean Williamson got the course lengths pretty much spot on. With kangaroos and wallabies darting across the wooded slopes, it was a gorgeous winter morning.
As the whiteboard filled with times, the strong teams got stronger.
Big Foot in Division 1 are almost certain to retain the Frank Assenza Trophy after Garingal suffered a shock loss to a three-man WHO outfit.
Uringa-Central Coast and Big Foot (Divn 2), Garingal Monitors (Divn 4), and UR-CC (Divn 5) also maintained their perfect records to book their places in the August 26 decider at Boggabilla.
Division 3 is where things are really interesting: SHOO-IKO are on 8 points and have a 'goal difference' of 49. Bennelong, KNOX and WHO are all on 6 points. In the last round at Lapstone next month, KNOX have a double header against the other two - so anything is mathematically possible among those top four teams.
In Division 4, the second-placed Garingal Molochs - due to a strong for/against - look set for an intra-club final even if they lose their last round.
In Division 5, WHO must knock over the unbeaten UR-CC or risk being pipped by KNOX or the Garingal Blue Tongues.
We liked seeing the young newcomers having a go as practice for the Sydney South West primary schools champs this week.

Thanks SHOO.
