SHEPPARTON UNITED V SEYMOUR
Seymour Football club has it all to play when it comes to the home football to take on the bottom of the ladder Shepparton United.
The Lions must win and then wait to see how other results fall to see if it jumps into the top six.
I think, the Lions get the job comfortably and I do believe they will qualify for the September action.
Tip: Seymour.

BENALLA V EUROA
Euroa will be looking to round of its home and away season and sew-up third spot on the ladder when it makes the short trip down the road to Benalla.
The Pies come into the contest in good form having knocked over Mooroopna at home, while the Saints were beaten by Shepparton last Sunday.
Tip: Euroa.

TATURA V MANSFIELD
Mansfield will be on a mission to round out what has been a fantastic home-and-away season when it takes on Tatura. The Eagles have been in strong form of late, scoring two important wins over Mooroopna and Kyabram in the past fortnight to put themselves in the box seat to win the all-important double chance.
Tip: Mansfield.

MOOROOPNA V ECHUCA
Mooroopna is in danger of slipping out of the top six if it can’t overcome premiership favourite Echuca at home today. The Murray Bombers win, meaning the Cats will most likely drop out of the top six.
Tip: Echuca.

KYABRAM V SHEPPARTON SWANS
This is a danger game for the sixth placed Kyabram. In the end, I think the Bombers have too much to play for and should win. And, they will have to wait for other results to drop to see if they have kept their place in the top six.
Tip: Kyabram.

ROCHESTER V SHEPPARTON
Rochester will be looking to ensure it wins to sew-up its place in the finals. They can still miss out if they lost and any results went against them. The key to them doing that will be Jayden Dhosi, Jed Warrin, Jordan McGregor, Lachlan Rumbiolo and Tyler Larkin.But with the Tigers having so much to play for they should win to qualify for the September action.
Tip: Rochester
