• Thurgoona have a good mix of older players and some talented young guys. Thurgoona by 30 points.

Nic Barnes (Beechworth)

• Thurgoona is the best side but if we get a heap of rain, that will help Mitta. Thurgoona by 20 points.

Mitch Exton (Barnawartha)

• Thurgoona will be too big and strong. I think Mitta will struggle to match them around the ground. Thurgoona by 33 points.

• I’ve lost a couple of grand finals against Mitta and know only too well they will rise to the occasion. Mitta by 20 points.

Brett Skinner (Wahgunyah)

• Thurgoona was awesome in that first final and I think they will continue on. I expect Sam Cross to shine. Thurgoona by 15 points.
