Selected teams: August 31 and September 1


Published on Friday, August 30, 2013

Here are the teams for this weekend’s senior matches.

Heidelberg has made just one change ahead of its qualifying final with Bundoora on Saturday. Fabian Dorbolo comes into the Tigers’ line-up at the expense of Caleb Tiller.

Bundoora has named four ins to an extended line-up, with no outs named from the side that claimed a 41-point last weekend.

Northcote Park has added Mitch Papas, Will Debruin and Jai Middleton to an extended list for its elimination final on Sunday. However, the Cougars will be without injured star Paul Scanlon and suspended tall Joe Woonton.

Eltham has named two ins with Paul Currie and Brendan O’Sullivan set to return from injury.

Fitzroy Stars have regained a host of important players for their Division 2 second semi final against Whittlesea.

The Stars have named Jye Brennan, Kaelun Brown, Jai Burns, James Dau and Malcolm Dow. Meantime, the Eagles have recalled Scott McAuliffe and Laurence Umali.

North Heidelberg and Diamond Creek have both made three changes for their first semi final.

The Doggies regain Dave Florance, Jason Dean and Casey Brown, while the Creeks have included skipper Jedd McQueen but have lost Luke Simpson to suspension.

Finally, Watsonia has named both Daley Bear and Brody Ricardi despite both being under injury clouds. The Saints’ preliminary final opponent, Thomastown, have made just one change from the side that beat Reservoir by 29 points last week.
