Nhill look to rebound from loss, face Saints
As their coach, Jake McQueen couldn't be happier with how Nhill is travelling mid way through the season.
In second, with a record of 6-2, his side has dropped games only to Ararat and Dimboola this season, and this Saturday will again meet their Round One opponent in the Horsham Saints.
Nhill were too good for the Saints on April 12 this year, defeating their opposition 13.8 86 to 6.9 45.
The Saints are currently in seventh, with a record of 4-4.
The Horsham side does have one of the league's best players on their side, according to Play HQ, with Mitch Martin in outstanding form this season.
In the eight games he has played this season, Martin has been amongst the best on ground in every match.
Keegan Mellington has also been a brilliant contributor, named in the best on ground in all but one of his games this season.
But Nhill also has its talent, and Darcy Reid has led the way for his side this year, along with Liam Albrecht.
And while the Saints are coming off the bye last week, Nhill will be keen to rebound after being defeated by Ararat, but, as this season's results have shown, games can be full of surprises, so who will win is anyone's guess.
