Round Two Preview

prove to be a stern test. Looking for their first win expect the Lions to come out fast in this clash.

MUGC Royals v Bendigo Dragons: This game will be a cracker. Both teams lost after a great showing in round 1 and
will be looking to bounce back and get that first win on the board.

Division 1:
Northern Raiders v South Eastern Predators: The Raiders will be keen to show they can hold their own in the new
GV format and will want to impress in front of a home crowd. The Predators will be looking to keep their strong
defensive start and get some points on the board through their offence. Should be a physical game.
Kick off: 1:30pm @ LE Cotchin Reserve, Massey Avenue, Reservoir.
Monash Barbarians v Geelong Buccaneers: Having just played the Warriors the Buccaneers will be keen to do the
double over the Monash teams. Like the Raiders, the Barbarians will be looking to show the league they can hang
with the old ‘Division 1’ sides.
Kick off: 10:30am @ Sidney Pargeter Reserve, Endeavour Hills.
Berwick Miners v Monash Warriors: Fresh off their last gasp win the Miners will be full of confidence going into this
home game. The Warriors will be looking to bounce back after their defeat at the hands of the Buccaneers. This
could be game of the round.
Kick off: 1:30pm @ Sidney Pargeter Reserve, Endeavour Hills
Division 2:
Gippsland Gladiators v Pakenham Silverbacks: Gladiators will be kicking themselves for giving up a 14-0 lead against
the Falcons in Round One and with it being a home game should have good numbers. The Silverbacks played well
in their opening game. If they can get some cohesion on offence they’ll be a very competitive side. This will be a
close one.
Kick off: 10:30am @ Maryvale Reserve,
Morwell.
