THE MAGPIES have just two games to play, with a must-win clash against the Redlegs this weekend, we take a look at the form of the club's upcoming SANFL opponents.
Magpies' form: LLWWW
Current ranking: 2
Percentage: 59.13
Premiership points: 22
Round 17 v Norwood
Sunday 20 August, Alberton Oval, 2.10pm
Redlegs' form: WWWWL
Current ranking: 4
Percentage: 52.27
Premiership points: 40
Who they played before this game: Central District
Belted by Central last week, Norwood will be out firing this week. Having diced with Port and Sturt against the rest of the competition to try and wrest that double chance, the Redlegs were the first to falter. They have two chances left to jump back into the three. The first is against Port this Sunday, and then against the Double Blues in the final round. Expect a return to form from the Redlegs this weekend.
Round 18 v North Adelaide
Prospect Oval, Date TBC (Weekend of 26-27 August)
Roosters' form: LLLLL
Current ranking: 10
Percentage: 43.61
Premiership points: 6
Who they play before this game: Glenelg
The Roosters are ranked 10th, and will be looking to finish their season with a boilover in front of a home crowd. Prospect has traditionally been an inhospitable ground for the Maggies in the past, so this should be a tough contest for Port.
