Round 10 Preview

Hooders (7) vs Keatsters (1)
Hooders have been struggling recently, losing their last 3 matches, while Keatsters has gone largely unchallenged all season. Hooders expecting new recruits to assist in a number of areas, Keatsters Coach Yong dissapointed in the suspension of Glenn Archer, and wont help his defensive stats. Expect both teams trends to continue.
Tip: Keatsters by 10

Farts (6) vs Alex (5)
Alex had a close win in a high scoring match last week. This week he comes up against a resurgent Farts, fighting for the last place in the final 5. Only percentage separates these two teams, so this looms as an '8 point' match for the two comepting sides. With Hooders expected to lose, and Tendulkars playing Larry, the winner can keep in touch with the top four, and the loser will have to fight to make finals this year.
Tip: Alex by 15

Losers (10) vs Tendulkars (4)
Tendulkars expected to win this match easily. If Larry suprises all and actually picks a team, he might have a chance of breaking 100 this week. Even with his best side in, he's unlikely to trouble a Tendulkars team strengthened by some good drafting.
Tip: Tendulkars by 45

Ducklings (2) vs Black and Blue (3)
Match of the round. Ducklings have been on fire for the past 4 weeks, with some very high scores. Black and Blue coming off back to back wins, are primed to take it up to coach Tan. Even with inclusions for both teams, Black and Blue will struggle to outscore Ducklings this week.
Tip: Ducklings by 25

Crunchers (8) vs Curly (9)
Season defining efforts required by Curly players this week. A loss will all but snuff out their chance of finals action, Crunchers are also struggling, nearly 15% beneath the team above them. With a percentage like this, a win (and a big one) is a must.
Tip: Crunchers by 4
