UWA’s finals aspirations took a massive hit last round as the defending champions were outmatched by third-placed Kalamunda 25-6. The Students will look to inject some energy into their attack in hope of bouncing back to topple the competition leaders in front of their loyal home crowd.
Nedlands proved yet again why they are team to beat in 2015 with a ruthless 52-point triumph over Perth Bayswater. ‘Neddies’ ran in a massive ten tries against ‘Baysie’ to claim their tenth four-try bonus-point of the season and will be keen to bring the same intensity to McGillivray Oval this weekend.

Cottesloe (4) v Wests Scarborough (2) at Harvey Field, Cottesloe.
Round 6: Wests Scarborough 20 defeated Cottesloe 13 at Bennett Park, Doubleview.
Cottesloe will be keen to consolidate their place in the four when they take on fellow top four side, Wests Scarborough.
Cottesloe have been in a rich vein of form recently, earning bonus-point victories in their last three outings including 32-point rout of Joondalup last round, 65-33. The Gulls ran in nine tries against the Brothers including a hat-trick to Ivan Wright and will be looking for more of the same against the steadfast defence of West Scarborough.
Wests Scarborough are sitting comfortably in second place after 14 rounds of the 2015 Pindan Premier Grade season and will look to continue to apply pressure to table-topping. The Boars will take plenty of confidence into the contest coming off the back of 38-point win over Wanneroo last round in with 20-points coming from flyhalf AJ Alatimu who scored two tries and kicked five conversions.
Cottesloe: 1. John Monk, 2. Urbain Lawrence, 3. Kaisa Reidy, 4. Damien Carley, 5. Kieran Stringer, 6. Dylan Pearce7. Tobias Hoskins/ Angus Duckett, 8. Adrian Hall, 9. Charl Nieuwenhuis, 10. Antini Brown, 11. Ivan Wright, 12. Sean Martin, 13. Sam Parker, 14. Nili Afeaki, 15. Kevin Smith

Associates (5) v Kalamunda (3) at Allen Park, Swanbourne.
Round 6: Kalamunda 15 defeated Associates 14 at Hartfield Park, Forrestfield.
Associates will look to return to the winners list when they play host to third-placed Kalamunda at Allen Park.
The Swanbourne club has dropped its last four matches after going down to Palmyra in a tight encounter, 29-25. Despite a lack of recent victories, ‘Soaks’ sit just a game outside the four and will be keen to turn things around in hope of cracking back into the top four by season’s end.
Kalamunda continued their hot form in Round 14 and consolidated their place in the top four with a commanding 25-6 victory over UWA. The Bulls ran in four tries against ‘Uni’ to notch up their ninth four-try bonus-point of the season and will be intent on maintaining their attacking prowess when they travel to Allen Park. Apineru Faamanatu continues to terrorise his opposition tallying his 18th try of the season last round to lead the competition.

Palmyra (6) v Perth Bayswater (10) at Tompkins Park, Alfred Cove.
Round 6: Palmyra 30 defeated Perth Bayswater 7 at Pat O’Hara Reserve, Morley.
Palmyra will look to accelerate their late season charge towards the four when they take on Perth Bayswater at Tompkins Park.
Palmyra currently sit in sixth place just five points outside of the four and are perfectly poised to launch an attack on top four in the last four rounds of the season. ‘Paly’ claimed an important win over Associates in Round 14, grinding their way to a 29-25 victory. With bonus-points likely to be a huge factor in the race of third and fourth Paly will look to be at the attacking best against ‘Baysie’.
Perth Bayswater are still on the hunt for their first victory of the 2015 season and will look to cause an upset when they travel to Tompkins Park. ‘Baysie’ went down to Palmyra by 23-points when the sides last met in Round 6 and will look to show how much they’ve improved since May.
Palmyra: 1. Joe Savage (c), 2. Michael Tui, 3. Tuhoe Mahaki, 4. James Simpson, 5. Jarrod Menary, 6. Josh Everett, 7. Gavin Armstrong, 8. Onehunga Havilli, 9. Brian Jurisich, 10. Sam Jurisich, 11. Panashe Kamhata, 12. Michael Fotu, 13. Josh Tatupu, 14. Tommy Foster, 15. Tutere Waenga.

Wanneroo (9) v Joondalup (8) at Kingsway Reserve, Landsdale.
Wanneroo 17 defeated Joondalup 13 HBF Arena Sportsplex, Joondalup.
Wanneroo and Joondalup will both be looking to bounce back after heavy defeats last round when the Roodogs host the Brothers for the club’s Harmony Day.
Wanneroo will be intent on strengthening their defence when they play host to Joondalup. The Roodogs conceded seven tries in last round’s loss to Wests Scarborough and will be focused on regaining the defensive intensity that saw them overcome Joondalup back in the Round Six.
Joondalup will also be focused on the defence this weekend, after leaking 65-points in Round 14 despite scoring 33-points against Cottesloe. After going down to the Roodogs earlier in the season the team will need to be at their best against a confident Wanneroo outfit.
Wanneroo: 1. Owen Italiano, 2. Scott Cornell, 3. Andre Roux, 4. Timothy Iro, 5. Bradley Campbell, 6. Mark Cornell, 7. Benjamin Stimson, 8. Nathan Iro (c), 9. Bryce Watkins, 10. Byron Hutchinson, 11. Aiden Guenole, 12. Andrew King, 13. Kyle Bowie, 14. Michael Wilson, 15. Alistair Lawrie.
