COLTS LOOK TO BOUNCE BACK IN PRIME TIME

The Western Magpies Colts will look to bounce back from their disappointing loss last week when the Pies host Surfers Paradise at McCarthy Homes Oval, Chelmer in the prime time twilight game on Saturday.

The Colts are scheduled to play under lights at 4.45 pm which will give many of the Black & White faithful who often cannot get to matches early a chance to check out the youngsters.

The Pies sit fourth on the ladder and the Demons in eighth place but the visitors have been competitive and any laxity from the Pies’ Colts could prove fatal.

The Magpies lose big forward Finn Collison and nippy rover Zane Lovell to the Reserves where they will get a chance to showcase their stuff.

Dan Edwards goes to roving and Ritti Batilomoyo to the wing. Edwards has been in fine form and with Jacob Sheath in the middle, Deng Arok on ball and big men Harry Keenan and Cameron Ferguson in ruck the Pies will look to control the middle of the ground.

The defence looks settled with Chris Jenkins and Whitlam Bishop in the key positions providing stability to the back six.

The Pies will be keen to make it 3-1 for the year in what is shapuing as a danger game.

The 4.45 pm start will see the Colts play in front of a good crowd and they will want to showcase their premiership credentials to the Chelmer crowd.
