STATISTICIAN’S REPORT

By Luke Travers

Teams Competition

The competition in Division 2 and the Women’s Division is all over. Old Wesley is the premier in both. The competition in Division 1 is open at both ends of the table. Will it be Old Haileybury’s first ever premiership win or will Old Scotch win for the eighth time in a row? It all comes down to the Cooke-McClelland Shield race this Saturday. And will it be Old Scotch 2 or Old Xaverians 2 who go back to Division 2 in the relegation battle?
