Chance to draw line through weeks of woes

IT’S been a tough month for Boort - injuries, a draw pitting the enthusiastic Pies against better-oiled North Central sides and scoreboards highlighting their challenges in front of goal.
This Saturday’s North Central assignment is no less demanding but comes with hope.
The Pies played out a thriller against Wycheproof Narraport back in round three. It was a game Boort should have won but for two erratic quarters and, yes, struggling to convert in the goal square.
There’s a chance ruckman Nathan Twigg will be back in the team and his presence will lift the Pies and give them a chance to deny Wycheproof Narraport a second Loddon scalp in as many rounds.
Boort has shown its defence can match anything in the league. Now, it’s time to step up in the forward zone.
Donald comes back from the bye to take on Wedderburn. The Royals were basically a one goal a term better side against Wedderburn back in round three and have worked their way into the four after a toppsy-turvey season start.
Wedderburn has picked up the more than handy Jackson McEwen and club icon Adam Postle could be back from injury.
Wiping off the Redbacks would be a grave mistake for the Donald.
