The River Raiders and Tigers will play at Barham Recreation Reserve from 2.30pm.

Koondrook Barham’s leading goalkickers are Cameron Arnold, Harry Bremner and Kye Attwell.

The defence for the Tim Free-coached Woorinen includes Ben Booth, Jamie Nicholas and Elijah Miliado.

Another big match will be at Kerang’s Riverside Park where the Blues take on Tooleybuc Manangatang.
