Our Opponents
Sydney Uni are on a high, coming into this match on the back of an 8-game winning streak and sitting top of the ladder. But so close is the Sydney AFL ladder that should our Premier Division team get up, they will move ahead of the Students – the Bombers are one game behind but with a better percentage.
History is on our side. Since Sydney Uni were promoted to Premier Division in 2007, they have never beaten North Shore – and that’s a record we’ll be hoping stays intact on Saturday.
Our reserves also have a tough contest against the Students. Under the divisional structure, North Shore and Sydney Uni are the only teams that have their reserves team in the top 5 in First Division – so this game becomes an unofficial reserves grand final.
Online Coverage
Score updates from both the First Division and Premier Division matches will be posted on the website during Saturday. After the game, another photo gallery from Joe Ziino will be uploaded – follow the Media Gallery link above. Scorecards will also be available online.
And for next week......
Only one week to go till the Red And Black Ball, North Shore's big gala event. We've kept the RSVP window open, so if you haven't RSVP'd yet, it's not too late; but get in quick.
