Staff WriterJoondalup Times

The Wolves face Rockingham at Mike Barnett Sports Complex on Friday before returning home to challenge Willetton on Saturday.

The men’s contest against the second-placed Tigers is the game of the round and will likely be a top-of-the-table clash depending on Friday’s results.

It’s shaping up to be a difficult weekend for the eighth-placed women, with the Flames (seventh) and Tigers (fourth) both above them on the table as they look to even up their 3-5 record.
