The Round 5 TAFL Match of the Round is undoubtably the Inverell Saints travelling to take on the Tamworth Kangaroos under lights at Number One Oval this Saturday night. The match pits the only two undefeated teams in this years TAFL and the winner has sole custody of top spot for the next 7 days at least. Adding to the atmosphere will be the fact that the Number One lights will be used for only the second game in match conditions.
The Saints will enter the match as underdogs given the Roos have encountered cross town rivals the Swans, as well as taking down the Dogs in Gunnedah and the Cats at Muswellbrook. The Saints will face the Roos after defeating the Eagles at home and the also the Dogs in Gunnedah, but this will be the biggest acid test for the Saints in 2010.
The Saints have along list missing this weekend, but welcome the return of Jason Gobbert to the ruck and Stewart Walker to the forward line. Both bring plenty of experience to the lineup and much needed strength to replace some missing stars.
This match promises to be a big one and a huge test for the Saints.
