Jim Beam Cup - Australian Rugby league News
Back
globalrugbyleague - Fri, 03 Aug 2007 11:37:00 GMTViewing rugby league live and exclusive from nearby roof-tops appears to be a growing trend amongst the tens of thousands of Jim Beam Cup supporters.
With only four weeks to go before the contenders and pretenders head their separate ways come finals time, fans of this great competition will do almost anything not to miss a clash.
Sources close to GRL’s investigative reporter, Danny Whistleblower, have exclusively revealed that the GRL Traitor was spotted watching a round 19 game in a tree because of the lack of seating available.
This lack of seating was not due to the infrastructure of the venue but rather the excitement and popularity of the game which resulted in overflowing crowds turning up.
Only two teams outside the current top five remain hopeful of edging their way into the elite finals club. They are Wentworthville (6th) and Mounties (7th).
But for Mounties, the challenge couldn’t be any tougher. On 18 competition points, they must win at least 3 of their last four clashes against Windsor, Belrose, Erina and Chester Hill.
For Seven Hills, Asquith, Shellharbour, Chester Hill and Erina, the only way they could possibly make the finals this late in the season is if the competition table was turned upside down.
The match of the round will pit Wentworthville up against Cabramatta at Ringrose Park on Sunday afternoon. Both sides scored over 40-points last weekend, so expect a tight, low-scoring contest. I can't wait to see the battle of the forwards in this one.
With their finals hopes on the line, I’m going to narrowly tip the Magpies to edge out the Two Blues at home.
An unforeseen loss by Belrose to Chester Hill would then make the remaining rounds very interesting.
Friday night footy in the Jim Beam Cup kicks off at the Crest Stadium at 7:30pm when the Sydney Bulls go hunting for win number two over Erina in season 2007.
