Rowbottom in for Prestia.

Update after Saturday Night  (* Indicates Captain has played)

Premier Division
North 1340/9 played v South 696/3 played - South should win from here with all three players exceeding 200. North will need big games from remaining players including Captain Oliver.

Reserve Division
North 305/3 played v South * 1467/8 played.  North were hampered by injury to Hunter Clark and just missing the automatic replacement cut off. Hard to see North catching up but stranger things have happened.

Colts Division
North * 1310/8 played v South 719/6 played. North may pull the surprise here and get over South despite cattle remaining. Underperforming by South Key forwards has allowed North in.

Further updates to come but it would appear Shield is returning South on initial scores.

Update after Monday  (* Indicates Captain has played)

Premier Division
North * 2043/ 12 played v South 2290/13 South with Captain Macrae still to come should win this.

Reserve Division
North1389/11 v South * 2054/12 Will be a comfortable win to South following Norths injury.

Colts Division
North * 1928/12 v South * 2352/14  Think deficit too much for North to overcome here but stranger things can happen.
South look like having a clean sweep this year,

So the Challenge over for another year:

Results
Premier Division
South 2818 defeated North 2446
Changes North Dom Sheed replaced Nathan Fyfe
Best Players (Scoring 200+)
South - Steele, Laird, Miller, Hall, Macrae
North - Crouch, Redden

Reserve Division
South 2491 defeated North 2235
No Changes
Best Players

North - Lyons

Colts Division
South 2590 defeated North 2439
Changes -
North Ryder replaced Marshall
Best Players
South - Kelly, Bontempelli, Cunnington

South with a clean sweep claim the Brave Heart Shield
