Bengalat start with the ball this time. Bengalat and Dan Dan Nook have been playing for a while now and still no one has gotten a goal since Erin.

Davis vs McLeod
The game on Thursday 14th of September between Davis and McLeod was a tight game with Davis coming out on top by one goal. It started off with McLeod winning for the most of the first half by one goal until Davis scored close to the end of the half. Then McLeod were winning after the end of the first half 2-1. The second half started off with Davis scoring three goals all scored by Jess. After Jess’ hot streak McLeod scored two goals to make it even. With one minute left Luke G scored a goal from the edge of the yellow half circle. Then Shannon missed an unlucky shot with ten seconds left. The ending scores were 5-4 to Davis. That puts Davis into equal second place overall with McLeod. To make the grand final, Mcleod now have to beat Bengalat, who are currently undefeated. If McLeod lose and Davis beat Dan Dan Nook, Davis will make the grand final. The make up of the grand final all depends on next week’s results and scores.
