The Wolves Vs Barossa
In a match which was vital for both teams, Barossa were unbackable favorites, but they just did not show the goods this time around coping a 62 point shalacking at the hands of The Wolves. Joel McKay was deadly for The Wolves snagging 11 straight through the big sticks with rover Scott Bamford in support winning the ball out of the midfield time and time again which set up the win early. It looks as it Barossa will hit the track hard this week to find some reasons why they have been so dissapointing thus far, and The Wolves will be working hard to keep their spot in the top 5 after 2 strong wins out of the first 3 games.

San Fransisco Vs Pines
Coach Luke Jamieson is trying to put a cap on the recent attention over his sides Pines 'rags to riches' story so far this season after another gutsy win against last year division 1 finalists San Fransisco. After getting the jump early, Pines never looked back winning by a comfortable 27 points. Trent Hopper stared for Pines picking up 59 possesions with Colin Hayes lethal in front of goals snagging another 6. Pines look to be the suprise packet of Signature Division so far winning 2 out of their first 3 games with a list that most expected to finish last in the division. If they can keep up this for they will lose the tag of easy beats without much trouble.

Dromana Vs Faarknn Buutty
The Faarknn train rolls on after an 81 point enialation of the pittiful Dromana at Dromana. Faarknn dominated all over the ground with established star Damien Lock continuing his consistent form slotting 7 goals and Marcus Picken dominating out of the centre with 57 touches and 3 goals. Now that Faarkn have hit their straps, KOD suspects that they will be stop and could well go all the way in Signature Division. Dromana will have to lift a great deal after this performance to be considered real contenders this season.

3- Marcus Picken (Faarknn), 2- Damien Lock (R) (Faarknn), 1- Alister Lynch (Faarknn)
Lucifer Vs Mainland
In a hard slog for 4 quarters, possesions were hard to come by in this hard fought contest which saw the much improved Lucifer take the points against Mainland. Only one player, Craig Sholl, picked up more than 25 touches, but Lucifer proved themselves as one of the better man on man sides in the league never giving their opponent an inch. The word around the traps is that after a hard pre season, Lucifer are looking good for a top 5 finish and Mainland will be looking down the barrel or relegation if they can't start winning some games.
The Votes
3- Craig Sholl (Lucifer), 2- Brett Burton (Mainland), 1- Troy Longmuir (Lucifer)
