The Npl South Australian league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. Adelaide Blue Eagles and Sturt Lions are placed 10th and 5th respectively.
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
These teams are located so close to each other that their supporters eat in the same restaurants, hang out at the same night clubs and give birth at the same hospitals. This means added importance to the game and a vibrant atmosphere.
