The Round Ball Game of the Week this week sees league leaders Apollo take
on The Sharks at Webb St. home of Apollo Soccer Club. These sides could not be any
further apart on recent form. Apollo have rested players, played good
football and cruised to easy victories. The Sharks on the other hand have
lost a wide range of players due to a wide range of reasons and as a
result have struggled on the park. In last weeks must win fixture against
Gambier Centrals they fell apart in the second half conceding four goals
to a young and more energetic side.
The Sharks are well and truly on the ropes and with only a few fixtures
remaining in what could have been their year it could all fall apart for
John Bruttomesso and his boys.
This week is the litmus test that Bruttomesso would be dreading. In the
first half of the season The Sharks recording a stirring win against
Apollo at home and they sat perched at the top of the table ready to take
the next step, three months later they have dropped off the pace and the
big three have re-established their dominance.
It is not the end of the road for The Sharks if they lose on Sunday,
however with a make or break final against Gambier Centrals less than a
month away a poor performance will see their confidence continue to drop.
the win is not vital a good performance is.
In other games Gambier Centrals should continue their winning ways against
Naracoorte United at home, Inter will rack up another win against an ever
improving Portland outfit and Millicent's poor form looks set to continue
when they host Blue Lake in Millicent on Sunday.
