2008 ABL Finals Week One - Prediction

Ladies first...

Sturt to beat North this week
Forestville will beat South
Norwood will eliminate West
Southern v Eastern result won't matter, the Tigers will be 4th

THAT MEANS

Sturt through to 2nd chance semi

North (13-5) vs Forestville (13-5) @ Hillcrest (North have the split)
Southern (11-7 or 12-6) vs Norwood (10-8) @ Morphett Vale

Now the blokes...

North will beat Sturt, even though the Sabres have a crack at 4th seeing South will lose to Forestville.

THAT MEANS

Forestville through to 2nd chance semi

North (15-3) vs Norwood (15-3) @ Hillcrest (North have the split)
South (9-9) vs Sturt (9-9) @ Marion (South have the split)

Thoughts?

I see the first week of finals going like this....

Women

North v Forestville
Rockets on home floor and genuine defence will mean they get the win. Rockets by 8

Southern v Norwood
I see an upset here, Flames have been good in recent weeks and will continue that form and upset the Tigers. Flames by 12

Men

North v Norwood
Sapwell himself said in the paper the flames hate playing north at Hillcrest and it will show. Rockets by 15

South v Sturt
Home court is the only difference between these two sides. Panthers by 6

That's right, Eastern women can't make it.

They have the split on West, but if West lose that means Norwood win.

And Norwood would have the split on both Eastern and West.

If West win, West are in, one game ahead of Eastern.

This is providing Eastern beat Southern.

eastern wont beat southern... although if leaver continues to sub the way he does and keep key players off the floor like he has in recent games, mavs will take it.
