ALHAMBRA-UNION HARBOUR

A string of heart breaking losses came to an end for Alhambra-Union in round 6 when they became the heartbreakers with a last minute try to defeat Kaikorai. After the morale boosting win AU now set their sights on Harbour who are on a four match winning streak and playing with a high degree of confidence. Alhambra-Union will be asking their forwards to put in a big shift against an intimidating Harbour forward pack and will look for their X-Factor coated backline to break the game open. Harbour on the other hand will look to attain dominance with their big ball runners upfront and when the timing is right they will look to their elusive backline to ensure they leave the North Ground with a win and the Ross Godman Memorial. Expect this game to be a high scoring thriller.

Players to Watch: Poasa Cama (Alhambra-Union) looked upon as the King of X-factor at AU, he creates something out of nothing and when Alhambra- Union need him the most he delivers. Poasa named at second five will often pop up at various positions around the field where his first and second options are to attack! Poasa will play a big part if AU go on to win. Ewan Brumwell (Harbour) the ‘angry’ Scottish midfielder is having a standout season in 2017 both on attack and defence. Ewan often gets Harbour on the front foot with ball in hand and defensively quote unquote hasn’t missed a tackle in two seasons of club footy. He will be crucial in ensuring Harbour make it 5 on the bounce
