SHEPPARTON V EUROA
What a match-up this promises to be!
Both are undefeated and staking their claims for this year’s premiership.
Shepparton kept its undefeated run in-tact when it accounted for Seymour at Kings Park in what was a fantastic game of netball.
On the other hand, Euroa got some redemption from losing the 2023 decider by accounting for its conquer in Echuca.
The match-ups right across the court is worth the entry fee to get along and watch what is sure to be a cracking game of netball.
Whoever has the better of these match-ups will go a long to deciding who remains undefeated.
I am going to go with Shepparton in a close one. Tip: Shepparton.
TATURA V MOOROOPNA
This is another game that promises to be one to get along to watch two great teams in action.
Mooroopna is undefeated after the opening month of the season while Tatura has a 3-1 record after only dropping its round two game at Euroa.
Tatura has claimed some scalps in those wins, defeating Seymour on the opening day and the improved Rochester last round.
The Cats have had some strong performances across the opening month, including a big win against reigning premier Echuca in round three.
This will be a really tight affair and the team that can capitalise when they have momentum will win the four points.
And, with that I think it will be the Cats who win and remain undefeated. Tip: Mooroopna.
ECHUCA V ROCHESTER
This will be another great game of netball and one that Rochester will see as a real opportunity to defeat its neighbouring rival.
The reigning premier is just going at the moment, following a changing of the guard in the off-season.
I think the Murray Bombers get the win. Tip: Echuca.
BENALLA V SEYMOUR
Benalla will be looking to break its duck in 2024 while Seymour will be looking to get its season back on track after one win from its opening three matches.
The Saints were competitive last round but went down by 10 goals to Mansfield while the Lions lost at home by 15 goals to the undefeated Bears.
In the wash-up, I think the experience and depth of the Lions is what will prove the difference. Tip: Seymour
SHEPPARTON SWANS V SHEPPARTON UNITED
This is another of the games that is worth a watch.
Both have been going well – the Swans may have won one game this year against Mansfield in round two but they have been really competitive, averaging 50 goals per game.
The worry for coach Jana Riordan is the scores against.
United has been going along nicely without setting the world on fire.
That said they are 3-1 after four rounds, losing only to cross-town rival Shepparton.
If they can continue that form, then I think the Demons can consolidate its place in the top six. Tip: Shepparton United.
KYABRAM V MANSFIELD
This should be a really good contest between two of the teams at the lower end of the ladder.
Mansfield was rejoicing after its first win of 2024 when it defeated Benalla by 10 goals.
Jemma Hall was Kyabram best in the loss to Shepparton United.
She will have a big job in trying to steer her young team and at the same time marshal the defence to try and restrict the visitors to a losing total. Tip: Mansfield.
