ROUND 6 REVIEWS
Francas Vs Mainland
This match was vital for Francas to grip after losing to Faarknn and losing their top spot on the ladder last round. They won the match, but not by as much as expected, winning by 39 points after taking the foot off the accelerator in the last 15 minutes. J. Stevens from Francas prooved that they have other goalkickers in the side besides R. Francis kicking 8 goals straight and speaking of R. Francis, he also managed to put through 5 goals. Mainland had very few possesions which cost them the game, they need to get more of the ball, and when they get the ball to use it well.

3- J. Stevens (Francas), 2- R. Francis (Francas), 1- Chris Sluth (Mainland)
Barossa Vs Faarknn Buutty
Coming into the game raging hot favorites, Faarknn dissapointed fans losing the game to Barossa and top spot back to Francas. Coach Adam Collins was fuming after the game and when questioned why his players lost this relatively easy game he responded with "Get f***ed you creten." One can only imagine the heavy drinking after last weeks magnificent win may have had something to do with it. Barossa pulled out their best game of the season to win though, Malcolm Blight staring from the centre with 35 touches and 4 goals straight. If the Panthers cankeep this form up, they will be hard to stop from this point forward.

The Wolves Vs Pines
I picked an upset in Pines knocking off Wolves this week, and it nearley came off The Wolves just keeping Pines from steeling the match with a strong last term comeback by 2 points. This is a great sign for Pines that they can at least match it with the best even if they look of paper as if they are undermanned, they have a lot of ticker. Scott Bamford for the Wolves was instrumental picking up 50 possesions and kicking 2 goals roving, and Craig Black his opponent also had a sensational game kicking 3 goals and collecting 41 touches.

3- Scott Bamford (TW), 2- Craig Black (Pines) 1- Andrew Kelleway (Pines)
Manchester United Vs Lucifer
A very even looking contest on paper before the game, but many thought the talent of Manchester United would beat the hard yakka of Lucifer and Manchester United were at home, but they were prooven wrong with Lucifer notching up another win and keeping themselves in the top 5 winning by a comfortable 25 points. This will surley be a character building win for the boys down at Lucifer and if they can keep this sought of form up consistently they will be a real contender to take out the flag. Troy Longmuir, Danny Dickfos and Matthew Clarke were the starts for the Lucifer outfit scoring 6,6 and 5 goals respectivley in a star studded forward line for the Devils. Matthew Febey was also outstanding with 34 touches and 3 goals.

Dromana Vs San Fransisco
In a one sided affair, San Fransisco stunned the Dromana faithful giving them a 118 point pulverising in a game Dromana expected to be at least competitive in. Robert Harvey was incredible for San Fransisco picking up 51 touches, kicking 12 goals and taking 27 grabs in a Best on Ground performance with great support from Full Forward Jerry Rice who made goalkicking look easy booting 9 goals straight. San Fransisco are still an outside chance of making the finals, but will have to perform like this under pressure, not just against the likes of Dromana.

3- Robert Harvey (SF), 2- Jerry Rice (SF), 1- David Jorden (Dromana)
