Both teams are fresh off big wins in round 11; the Roos with a 71-point win over the Swifts and the Storm a 42-point win over second-placed Rupanyup.

The reigning premiers (Roos) took a while to get going in 2021 but are now starting to hit their strides at the right time of the season and haven't lost since round six.

The Storm is a worthy opponent and is in a purple patch of their own, having not lost since round five.

The Rams in seventh-spot are just outside the six on percentage and an upset against the Cougars would be invaluable for their finals' chances.

The Swifts currently hold that sixth spot and must win their clash with 11th-placed Pimpinio to put breathing room between them and the Rams.

It would be surprising if Laharum's clash with Kalkee was anything other than a win to the Demons.

Although the Kees have been competitive in a lot of their games, the unbeaten Laharum have looked invincible this season.
