All four favourites won in Round 21 so if you stuck with them on the weekend you ended up going pretty well. A number of tipsters got four after sticking with the fancied teams with myself picking up the bonus point to finish with five points for the round.

Altogether it's still gaskin in the lead on 58 points, remaining three ahead of Monocle who stays in second place on 55. Kram81 and myself are tied for third on 54 whilst Spanna_ rounds out the top five another point back with 53 points overall.


Round 22 Fixtures

East Fremantle vs Claremont at ATOM Stadium
East Perth vs South Fremantle at Medibank Stadium (margin)
Peel Thunder vs Subiaco at Bendigo Bank Stadium
Swan Districts vs Perth at Steel Blue Oval
Bye: West Perth

For the second week in a row, all games are on Saturday this week at 2:15pm. The penultimate round looks like the most anticipated one yet with three big games which will shape the make up of the top five for 2016. East Fremantle's finals hopes go on the line as they host Claremont, Peel Thunder could book themselves a second straight finals appearance as they take on Subiaco down in Mandurah while Swan Districts will battle with Perth at Steel Blue Oval. Unfortunately there is no TV game for the third week running but I've decided to go with East Perth vs South Fremantle as the margin game with both clubs having big things to play for.

There's no changes in the other grades with the Colts and Reserves as per usual this week.

After such a nice weekend last week, this Saturday isn't looking that great at the moment with a high chance of showers predicted in the morning and the afternoon. It isn't forecast to be too wet though with the showers expected to clear throughout the day. Hopefully the rain clears quicker than expected and we can get a great round of footy in this weekend. Happy tipping!!

Round 22 didn't prove to be too difficult if you followed the favourites although Claremont demolished East Fremantle costing many of us the perfect round. Carbine Chaos, Spanna_ and Military_man saw it coming though, tipping the Tigers and the rest to keep a clean card this week. Military_man also secured the bonus point to finish with five points for the weekend.

There isn't much change at the top with gaskin still in the lead on 61 points, remaining three ahead of Monocle who is in second place on 58 points. Spanna has joined Kram81 and myself in a three way tie for third place on 57 points.


Round 23 Fixtures

East Fremantle vs East Perth at ATOM Stadium (1:40pm, margin)
Claremont vs Peel Thunder at Claremont Showgrounds (2:15pm)
Perth vs South Fremantle at Lathlain Park (2:15pm)
West Perth vs Swan Districts at HBF Arena (2:15pm)
Bye: Subiaco


Well it's hard to believe but Round 23 is here, the last home and away round of the season with all four games on Saturday once again. Claremont will play its final game at Claremont Showgrounds for the forseeable future as they host Peel Thunder, Perth will battle South Fremantle at Lathlain while West Perth is fresh off the bye and takes on Swan Districts up at Joondalup. After three rounds with no TV coverage, we have a televised game this week which sees East Fremantle play East Perth at ATOM Stadium, this match being a virtual elimination final as the winner will take fifth place which is the last spot in the finals series. That match leads into Channel 7's AFL coverage in the evening.

In the other grades there isn't much movement although the East Fremantle vs East Perth Colts and Reserves games have been pushed forward, beginning at 8:25am and 10:55am respectively.

As has been the case in the past couple of months, the weather forecast for Saturday is wet again with showers expected on Saturday and a chance of some hail too. It's also expected to be quite cool with only 15 degrees expected. I hope everyone enjoys the final round as we gear up for another great finals series. By the way, we will be tipping finals in all three grades so still plenty of time to catch up! Happy tipping!!
