While the Blues have been solid since the long weekend, the Sea Hawks have not played since June 30, with consecutive forfeits to Eastlake and ADFA. They are third at 9-2. The Blues (4-7) are in seventh.

The Blues will look to star onballer Jimmy Finicane and coach Luke Webb, while Joel Pearson, Blake Basham and Liam Frilay are doing good work down back. Sandy Maskell Knight has dominated up front, bagging six last week, and has a handy lead in the league goal kicking. 

The Blues girls face a tough assignment on Saturday, hosting the Riverina Lions. The Wagga team has had a solid season and is undeafeated on top of the ladder. The women start the day’s proceedings at noon; the mens’ first bounce is at 2pm.
