NC V IGS
Ipswich Lord Mayor Paul Pissalle is the guest bus driver this week for IGS and the boys will be frothing at the mouth when they get off the bus at Boondall after listening to his drivel for an hour and a half. The red & white forwards will be chocko-block full of angry pills and the new Paul Gallen range of peptides too, (now available at Coles Ipswich btw).
I'd rather be on a Kontiki Tour of Syria than in the first few rucks on Saturday afternoon. It's going to be ugly up front and that will be where the game is won and lost. The Nudgee boys will survive a scare but get away with it.

BSHS v GT
Terrace losing 6 in a row will go down like a cup of cold sick in the corridors of power, a top of Gregory Terrace, so the Red/Black will be more fired up than Bert Newton on the way to a spray tan appointment. State High have basically had enough this season and will lose interest in the second half as Terrace bore them to death with a series of up-and-unders and grubber kicks, leading to a couple of soft tries and a relatively easy win. State High won't even open the tuckshop (thankfully).

ACGS v BGS
Churchie will be cockier than Sonny Bill Williams in the girls toilets at Zuri Nightclub. Most of the Churchie team will have spent last weekend in the house of mirrors getting to know themselves, but will ultimately be fresh and rested. Grammar have decided that a composite 15 made up of the Volleyball team, the Tennis First V and the 3 quickest mums from last weeks tuckshop roster could be what's needed to roll the 2014 Champions. The strategy will work for the first 45 seconds, but the cream will rise to the top quicker than a Churchie mum whipping up a strong punch at a fundraiser.

TSS v TGS
The Southport coaching staff won't be at the game - they'll watch the 16A match and then head over to Skilled Stadium at Robina to sign a few Pumas for next years season. With attention well and truly turned to next season down at the Port, the T-ba boys might just sneak off with this one, putting them equal third on the table at the end of the round.
