I only really know about VYCW and I believe there are only 4 real contenders: Ballarat, Bendigo, Dandenong and Knox (alphabetically ordered).
Corio Bay, back to back in V men champs by the looks of it!
Ringwood hawks in champ men. They have Corio covered

What has happened to Diamond Valley in SCM???
Looks Warren Escort has again driven his players into the ground.
Too tough to call the champions in SCM at this stage but you would think Corio Bay and Waverley would happily allow Ringwood to be the outright favorites.
The expectation form all around is that Ringwood has it in the bag... that team is very questionable in a series IMO and Ruh is a bust, just bigs up on shit opposition games.

For the Men's Championship this year I think Ringwood and Corio Bay will again meet in the final series.
Should Stingrays stay top and win through for two home finals, that will make it very hard for the Hawks IMO, so it kind of depends on the rest of the season for me.
They are one win each from two games this season so far, nothing much between these two sides, very much about confidence and form on the night...
Ma'alo is finding form and the CB imports appear to be a nice fit especially Scooter with his high assist rate, any injury to a key player on either team would tip the balance a long way though!
Ruh is a fine scorer for the Hawks and Dougher is always dangerous but if they share the load Ringwood is still very much in the hunt for sure.
We will see soon enough, cheers...
Ringwood, Bulleen and Waverley are a league above everyone else. Tough call to make. I am tipping Ringwood. Too many weapons from outside the 3.
What division anon^ are you refering to? Men, women? Youth League, Div2? Just a random comment really!

YLCW has to be Dandenong, they are trashing most teams and not even getting out of second gear
CB expecting a crowd of 1,000 plus for Game 2 and 3 if needed. Facebook page is going off with excitement after their OT win at Ringwood last night.
^Anon, they can't fit over 1,000 at CB without spending coms cash to instal temporary seating. If they do this, great but at the moment there isn't the infrustructure there at the stadium to support such a crowd.
The game is being moved to the Arena, will be the first sell out for that venue in many years.
^That's funny, LOL, anyhoo if you are the poor buggers standing sixteen deep on a flat surface like a bball court good luck if you get to see jack sh-t!
Stingrays would fill the Arena. No problems at all. Ringwood also have a great fan base too. Council would finally make some money off the venue.
Corio won't play anywhere else but the Chook Shed. Oh, sorry, what's it called now, the Aquarium, cool name!
Dougher out for Ringwood with a broken collarbone. Big loss for the Hawks. Sad news as he was lighting it up in Game 1 with 27 pts.
Anon #724 if true that's tragic! Then I can't see them winning the next game away from Ringwood, very tough ask has just become near impossible I think.
