Round 15 Preview Peel Thunder v Claremont

Wednesday, June 28, 2017 - 11:49 AM

By Dan Scamozzi

After getting their season back on track with three consecutive wins at Claremont Oval, the Tigers get the chance to test themselves against Peel Thunder at Bendigo Bank Stadium on Saturday.

A win would see Claremont draw level with the reigning premiers on seven wins, and see the Tigers jump into the top five should either West Perth or Swan Districts lose their respective matches.

The club encourages members and supporters to attend the match and cheer the Tigers to victory.
