2006 ABL FINALS - Week One Tips

I think it's time to get people's tips for this weekend's match up's.

MEN:

Forestville vs Eastern

The Eagles will be out for revenge after the Mavs brilliant come from behind win last week minus Holmes.

Eastern will be confident after knocking off last years runners up twice this season and could be heading to face the Sabres.

EASTERN by 9

North Adelaide vs Norwood

Webber vs Zorich will be the main match-up that will decide this one. North, back in the playoffs after last season disappointment will not go down without a fight and will continue on in 2006.

NORTH by 13

WOMEN

North Adelaide vs Forestville

The Rockets will be confident after knocking the Eagles off only a couple of weeks back on the same court but everyone should take into consideration the Eagles effort minus a couple of stars to claim last year's title.

FORESTVILLE by 6

West Adelaide vs Southern Tigers

The Bearcats limp in to the finals after a less than impressive overtime loss to Norwood on the road last round.

For John GIllies' girls the plan is simple, stop Beatty and move on to the semi's.

WEST ADELAIDE by 7

Why the confidence in Forestville Women over North? They have played 3 times this year with North winning all 3!

Totally agree! Forestville haven't even come close to North in all 3 games. If anything, Forestville would have no confidence. North Women with the win!

same can be said for Norwood over North in the men, North have dominated Norwood all year and that isnt about to change.
