Preview:

Last week was a thriller for our Fifths A side, getting over Southern Power by six points in a tight and low-scoring encounter. The win sees the Bombers playing off for spot in the Grand Final.

In a weird quirk of the draw, this is the first time this team will be playing Camden this year, having avoided them throughout the home and away season. The Cats finished minor premiers, but this is the first time the top two sides will play off.

There’s some quality players in this team, and they have the skill and the ability to hold their nerve when the game gets tight and to get the job done. It served them well last week; and with a Grand Final berth on the line, now is the time to stand and deliver.

Our Fifths A team will be hoping to sing the song again this week. If they do, they are into the Grand Final
