TSS v Ipswich
No escaping Ipswich is in for a flogging. TSS was in cruise mode against Terrace, they just wanted to make it a little more exciting given it was Old Boys Day. Not that they needed to make any of those boys more excitable, they were all remarkably fired up. Hayfever? I guess it is spring and there is a lot of pollen in the air because there was a lot of nose rubbing, sniffing and red eyes amongst them. Anyhow the TSS boys sailed past Terrace without any issue whatsoever and they will do the same to Ipswich this weekend. However it won't worry the swich at all, they will happily trade a flogging for a Yatala pie on the way home. TSS by 35.
BBC v Nudgee
Ok so this is interesting, and whilst my heart says that Nudgee is the sure things, my head would suggest that BBC could be a chance and they would certainly think they are, after last weekend against TGS. Although I expect, Nudgee will have to much power up front, however, there will be a lightning show between the outside backs and I think BBC has a little more up their sleeve in that area ( also big fan of that Ranga in the backline- I have liked him since trials) this will be a cracking storm to watch.

TGS v Churchie
This is the game that the Churchie Dad’s look forward to the most every 2 years. Gives them a chance to put on their shiny new RM’s and hopefully given the dry weather they might be able to get some dust on the Range Rover as they “go bush” to take on the Farmers. Although dust film aside, how good would it be if it was overcast and drizzling, leave the wood handled umbrella in the car because that drizabone hasn’t seen the light of day since the Brookfield pony club gala day in 2007. Now Churchie is starting to hit their straps and from what I have seen of them I don't see how the Farmers will trouble them. I am a fan of the farmers however they think that defense is four strands of barbed wire. They are switching up outside backs like a gypsy at a card table, which is causing some confusion. BBC played them like the bagpipes on the weekend and I am sorry Farmers, but lock up your women because the Vikings are going to ruck ( ? doesn’t sound right) and pilage. Churchie by 25
BGS v BSHS
BGS performed well against the Nudge, however it was a case of a handy little feather weight up against a heavy weight, all style and technique but no bang. BSHS will be more their weight class. BGS will have more structure than BSHS, and though the street kids will be hard to handle it wont be a major issue. Too well drilled and too much skill, BGS by 7
