Peel Thunder were no match for West Perth last week and are still looking for a big scalp outside the non-finalists, while Subiaco suffered its first loss of the year, a shock defeat at the hands of South Fremantle. The Lions have otherwise had a flawless season, while Peel started off competitive but have tired a little with several key players missing in the second half of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n\n\n\nCHANGES<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Peel Thunder regain the important experience of midfielder Ebony Bilcich<\/a> who returns alongside Caitlin Shales<\/a>. The pair replace Thunder duo Makinley Minchin<\/a> and Kaitlyn Hayes<\/a> for Round 13. Subiaco also brings back a couple of key experienced players with Beatrice Devlyn<\/a> and Danika Pisconeri<\/a> coming in. They are joined in the 21 by Scarlet Gallo<\/a> and Leila Rowe<\/a>. Jess Pillera<\/a> is one of four outs who drops back to first emergency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
PREDICTION<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Subiaco is just too experienced to drop a second consecutive game and while the Thunder have shown promising signs this season, the Lions have finals on their mind and regaining that top spot so a win is non-negotiable for the ladder leaders.<\/p>\n

Claremont became the sole undefeated side last round following Subiaco’s loss, and now with the massive percentage advantage over the Lions, are in the box seat to win the minor premiership. Aside from a second clash with Subiaco, the contest against Swan Districts looms as the Tigers’ biggest worry, with the Swans sitting pretty in third wiht a 7-3 record but playing more consistently than their nearest rivals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n\n\n\nCHANGES<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Swan Districts have only made the one change with Adi Griffith<\/a> replacing Emma Nanut<\/a> in the side. Claremont on the other hand has loaded up on experience. Ruck Jessica Ritchie<\/a> and midfielder Matilda Sergeant<\/a> both return as does Hayley Colvin<\/a> and defender Emma Henderson<\/a> after the latter’s run with the state team last week. However they do lose dangerous forward and skipper, Rachel Ortlepp<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
PREDICTION<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
The inclusions for Claremont are massive and it is hard to see the Tigers dropping the game at home. Swan Districts have plenty of talent, but will need to be at their absolute best to knock off a side gunning for a second straight flag. West Perth can actually overtake the Swans with a win tomorrow, though Swan Districts have a game in hand.<\/p>\n
