That's a significantly different Brisbane City side - no Cooper, Douglas or Kerevi. By contrast the Country starting side is 70% Reds and most of the rest are Australian U20s reps.
City are fairly strong favourites with the bookies but on both the strength of the team sheets and last week's form (where City were very average in the last 20 minutes against a team in their first game) I'm tipping Country as well.
On the other hand, I did a double take to see who's playing 6 for City. I was supposed to be meeting some mates at 2:30pm tomorrow but I'm going to have to postpone that to 3:30pm now, cause there is no way I'm missing Big Deeks!

The under in this one is the best of the first week of the finals. There are some huge under angles at play in this one. There is a long history of under clashes between the two teams. Port are a big under side at the Adelaide Oval. West Coast are a huge under side at night. The under is a chips-in play.
