Finals Lineup: Conti's Pain!
08/12/2008

The selection table can cause as much joy and heartbreak as the game itself come finals time, and this is no exception at The Bullets this season. Simon Conti, who suffered bruised ribs in The Bullets breakthrough Round 5 win is the unlucky player who misses out after only missing one other game throughout the season. On the flip side, Margit Gailis finally gets her chance to be a part of finals action after being forced to sit out the 2005 finals series.

The Bullets will play The Whitneys in the playoff for 5th and 6th. When they last played in Round 2, The Bullets went down by 22 points in a competitive game, where some errant kicking by Bullets forwards flattered the winning margin of The Whitneys.

And all eyes, once again, will be on Andrew Merryweather, who is now an agonising three goals short of his 100. Can he bring up this remarkable feat in the final game of the year?
