PREVIEW

A return to form for the Roos last weekend against the Demons at North Hobart, it was an arm wrestle for most of the day. But the dual reigning premiers showed there was still some fight left in them just yet and managed to silence some of it's critics with a 17-point win over North Hobart, for South Launceston they were under injured veteran Mitch Hills after the shock departure of Dale Chugg. But it was the same old story for South, an embarrassing 67-point loss to North Launceston and South Launceston left to wonder, what to do next?


Clarence can clearly thank Cameron Thurley for their comeback against the Demons, with the vultures circling after a lackluster performance against WAFL team Claremont, and then the Launceston lost. They were due to bounce back, of course against Lauderdale they weren't probably the best side on the day but got the points.

Thurley booted himself five goals before the Demons were looking to fight back, but a fine left-foot snap from the veteran Thurley was a fitting sealer. Trent Standen too chimed in with four himself, the so called demise of the Roos was quickly snuffed out.

For South Launceston they were unable to stop the medium-sized forward in Darren Crawford as he booted six in a best afield performance. This week, Clarence will be licking their chops, after a hard fought win the last 2 weeks, they have themselves a game that can help show their true form.

South Launceston's Aaron Viney celebrates his 150th game this weekend, probably not the best weekends for him to celebrate it, but he has been a good servant of the South Launceston Football Club.

PLAYERS TO WATCH

Cameron Thurley (Clarence) –
Having another great year with the Roos, kicking goals, and showing that he's still a class player. Very well could take home the Tassie Medal in 2011.

Aaron Viney (South Launceston) – Playing his 150th this week, it's easy to forget that when they are playing the likes of Clarence at Bellerive, but here's a shout out to Aaron Viney, good luck in your 150th!

QUESTION MARKS

Cameron Thurley with another best on ground against the Demons, who could possibly beat him to take the Tassie Medal away from him?

Can the Dogs show some fight against Clarence and prove some of their critics wrong? Or is this ship sunk for 2011?

WILL WIN AND WHY

This game should be a massive percentage booster to Clarence, hopefully South Launceston show some fight. But it's hard to see them providing any sort of competition to Clarence, and after the thrashings they have faced in the past Clarence could kick the biggest score of the season.

The only question now is, Clarence by how much? It's a shame, South Launceston aren't more competitive and we're left to wonder how many points they are going to be belted by this week, or next week.

PREDICTION
Clarence by 90-points
19
