A month ago, Echuca looked on track to live up to the pre-season expectations of qualifying for the finals.
Despite still having a healthy percentage, three straight losses have seen the Murray Bombers slip a game out of the top six.
The month of July did not prove fruitful for the Murray Bombers and coach, Andrew Briggs will be hoping a new month can bring a change in fortunes for his team.
Echuca faces an uphill battle with games against Seymour (away) today followed by a home match against United and then a tough away trip to Kyabram.
The Murray Bombers would have earnt the right to play finals if they qualify, but they must account for a very good Seymour outfit first to be even thinking finals.
Lions’ coach Brent Colbert will be eager to see the response he gets from his troops after slipping up against Benalla.
