WESTS vs SUNNYBANK| LIVE STREAM – Sci-Fleet Stadium, 3:20 pm
The Bulldogs welcome the Dragons to the Kennel this weekend in a highly anticipated match. Sunnybank became the closest team to defeating the University of Queensland this year when they fell short by only four points in Round 12. Wests have fallen out of form in recent fixtures recording three straight losses and will be determined to get their season back on track by securing an upset. The first time the two teams met, Wests defeated Sunnybank 23-19. Fans can expect running Rugby with both teams eager to unleash their backlines.

BROTHERS vs BOND UNIVERSITY – Crosby Park, 3:20 pm
The Brethren have fallen to the seventh spot on the ladder after suffering three consecutive losses to UQ, GPS, and Easts. Sensing an opportunity, Bond will be looking for their second win of the season when they travel to Crosby Park. The last time the two teams met it resulted in a hard fought 14-all draw. Brothers will be desperate to get their season back on track and need a bonus point victory to be any chance of a possible finals berth.
Brothers: Dustin Hannigan, Tom Sayer, Garrath Ryan, Ted Postal, Emmanuel Latu, Harry Symes, Fraser McReight, Criff Tupou, Reuben Wall, Dallan Murphy, Will Shipperley, Nathanuel Gendle, Kris Larosa, Mitch Felsman, Patrick James

Coach: Sean Hedger
GPS vs SOUTHS – Yoku Road, 3:20 pm
The Galloper’s are currently in second place on the ladder with Souths sitting outside the top four in the sixth position. GPS will enter the clash as favorites but should be cautious of the Magpies who have defeated Wests and Norths in their last two games, both of which GPS have lost to. The first time the two met in Round 3, GPS-dominated the game through their set piece and secured a 33-10 victory. The Gallopers will be desperate to finish in the top two at the end of the season and a loss to Souths on Saturday could prove costly.
GPS: Laione Mulikihaamea, Troy Simkin, Fred Burke, Daniel Byrne, Daniel Gorman, Jay Havelu, Enzo Mutoti, Michael Richards, Nick Frisby, AJ Alatimu, Eric Vasukicakau, Maaaloga Konelio, Chris Kuridrani, Pat Nicholson, Todd Winkley
Coach: Anthony Mathison
Souths: Alex Casey, Maile Ngauamo, Jake Simeon, Dylan Rowe, Stuart Williamson, Simana Halaifonua, Loveni Enari, Michael Tafili, Scott Malolua, Paul Brown, Chris Feauai-Sautia, Emori Waqavulagi, Liam Roberts, Niko Bueta
Coach: Elia Tuqiri
