All 3 are good sides. Wendouree the best team (on paper) and have good depth. Point beaten badly in semi last two years. (for what that's worth) and Naps are chronic underachievers and most likely will fall over in the semi.

Looking at the list of point and naps, I would say the better chance of knocking a side over cheaply is with Point. Simply because they have a lot of inexperienced players with only 2 real threats with the bat (White & Steve O).

Moore bowls 4 overs at good pace and then drops off if you can get into him. He most likely then feign an injury, typically the right shoulder or back and gets carted off the field.

Whereas Naps have maybe 1 or 2 more better players.

When it all boils down to it, runs on the board and tight bowling will win the day.

A bit tough on Pete Moore their, Chief. He has been bowling sustained pace this year for long spells and has over 20 wickets. Nobody has taken to him all year. And that back injury he got a few years ago had him taken to the hospital in an ambulance.

Re: Ballarat Cricket Association

I see the Golden Boy didnt make many this week. I hope all the fame and fortune isnt going to his head. The thought of winning the Cleary could be costly for him.

i wouldn't rule out naps yet. Faulkhead is just starting to bowl again and should be firing by finals time. he bowls at good pace (not his top pace) and importantly bowls with the wrong arm.

Wendouree are always tough but considering their form over the last three semi finals (they were favourites in each one of those) i don't think you can jump down points throat about it.

Point, to win a finals game will need big scores from Sven and White to have any hope, and a fantastic 40 over spell from Pete Appleton. the bowling will be their biggest issue without moore with Swardsy having to carry the load, he is not quite up to it yet.

East are proven performers in the finals over the last few years and are well balanced all round, Jezza missing up until finals means he may be a little underdone but his heart wont allow that to stop him contributing.

Mt Clear, same issue with Blake not playing at the moment and with the exception of Jeffo and Fletch the talented other batsmen don't really dig in when the going gets tough. They only needed on to hang around with Jeffo on Saturday to win this week but they couldn't do it.

Any team can win it but my tip would have to be East

fair assessments?

Im not entirely sure how the senario would pan out but having read back through the pages it has become apparent that the pointie heads have taken the term 'tight unit' to a new level... Love is a beautiful thing however the way Josh appears to be head over heels for yourself should be kept under wraps... Does the mardi gras clash with finals time for point???
