Well it's here Rd 1 of the Summerland League 2011 season kicks off this Saturday at Tigerland Pottsville with a Grand Final rematch between the Tigers and the Lismore Swans. With the Tigers claiming the 2010 flag, after 19 straight wins, leaving the Swans holding another runners up title there is sure to be plenty of fire.
Particualry considering the Tigers havn't forgotten that the majority of the swans players, other than the lionhearted Ox didn't bother to shake hands or do the honorable thing, of staying for the presentation after the GF last season.
The Swans blitzed the preseason comp at Nimbin showing their depth of squad and hunger for the 2011 season.
The Tigers on the other hand had only 3 of their premiership players attend Nimbin and will be a toally different unit when they take the field at Tigerland this Saturday.
With the Swans traditionally coming out of the blocks at the start of the season this will be a test of the Tigers size and strength v Lismore's fast running.
The hard preseason is over, the talk and fine tuning completed, it's game time!
