AFL North West: The Finals podcast Ep Seven | Photos
What a difference living a couple hours down the road makes.
While Inverell and Gunnedah slugged it out in the wet at Varley Oval, New England and the Tamworth Kangaroos clashed in much more pleasant conditions at Bellevue Oval.
The difference showed in the scoring with 48 scoring shots in the match at Bellevue and 32 in the game at Varley.
Billy Jupp – who is still drying out from his match with the Dogs – and Ben Jaffrey will discuss the two senior games which saw the Nomads keep their season alive and the Saints book a home grand final.
The pair will also delve into the women’s and juniors’ games along with this weekend’s do-or-die clash between Gunnedah and New England in first grade.
