As promised, this week’s report takes a brief look at the various tables as they stand but there is very little valuable information to be gained after only three rounds have been played. Most competitions are so close that anything could happen and it probably will!
As promised, this week’s report takes a brief look at the various tables as they stand but there is very little valuable information to be gained after only three rounds have been played. Most competitions are so close that anything could happen and it probably will!
The Big Wet during the preseason period has meant that many teams have played only a few trial matches and others have missed out altogether on this vital preparation period. As a result, it is almost impossible to predict what might happen by looking at the tables at this very early stage.
Club Championship
Mt Druitt Town Rangers and St George are locked together at the top of the table and separated by goal difference and then there is a break of seven points to third placed Stanmore Hawks.
Seven points further away is a group of three clubs - Hills Brumbies, Gladesville Ryde Magic and Southern Branch - with Schofields Scorpions two points further adrift.
Camden Tigers are only two points behind the Scorpions and then Hakoah are two points behind the Tigers while the gap to Mountains United is four points. Nepean are a point further back and Northbridge are bringing up the rear, two points behind Nepean.
Grade 13
Mt Druitt Town Rangers are the competition front-runners by a single point over Southern Branch and then a group of three teams - St George, Gladesville Ryde Magic and Stanmore Hawks – is just two points away.
