Round 17 1B - In the home straight - 5 Horse Race.
Great excitment in the 1B league. 5 teams can still win the championship.
1st - Sacred Heart 31pts - Grads Red (A) Rostrevor (H)
2nd - Mercedes 30pts - Rostrevor (H) Grads Red (A)
3rd - Unley 29pts - Pembroke (H) Uni White (H)
4th - Rostrevor 27pts - Mercedes (A) Sacred Heart (A)
5th - Grads Red 27pts - Sacred Heart (H) Mercedes (H)
Very difficult to pick the winner at this late stage as many of these teams are also playing each other. Unley sits in the middle of the pack and is the only team not to play any of the other 4.
Grads Red & Sacred Heart still fighting for the 1A title so they will need their strongest 1A sides out. Other clubs can tweek it if needed.
Great to see half the Div still in a chance with 2 to play.
Wont write much more in case the moderators get excited.

Re: Round 17 1B - 5 Horse Race - Thats excitement
After a slow start to the season with many draws Mercedes have it in their control to win 1B.
2 horse race now.
A Win or a draw for Mercedes will give them the title. Their superior goal difference will keep them top if they end up with the same amount of points as Grads Red or Sacred Heart.
Mercedes 33pts - 25GD
Sacred Heart 31pts - 5GD
Grads Red 30pts - 5GD
Mercedes play Grads Red Away.
Sacred Heart play Rostrevor at home.
Sacred Heart need to win and need Grads Red to do them a favour and beat Mercedes.
Mercedes lose and they will be hoping that Rostrevor get something from their game.
Funny how it all works. Only the other week teams were playing each other for titles and now they will be hoping thse teams can do something for them.
Good luck to the last 2.

Well a brilliant season in 1B completed yesterday with a massive turn of events.
We did what we had to do by beating Rostrevor 2-0 & received confirmation just after the final whistle that Grads Red had done us the favour by beating Mercedes 2-1 to give us the title by 1 point! A amazing result considering a draw would've been enough for Mercedes due their massive goal difference.
In the end a great result to cap off a great season which delivered our first reserves title!
