Ararat prepares for a key match at Horsham with uncertain lineups and strong support from Hooper in the ruck. The Magpies aim to counter the Royal Blues after beating Stawell, with Kemp and Ball noted for forward pressure and Foalkicker delivering when set up. Bill Twomey returns to influence the front line as coach and crowd interest rises.

Grabich and Hutchesson return to half back and centre half back respectively while Brown moves to centre half forward and Edwards to the other half back. Whitehead expected to kick goals early with Ball possibly replacing him at the spearhead. Du Memenny unavailable. Fisher and Boyle feature in pockets.

One of the star attractions of tomorrow will be the meeting of Timboomsh Warrackhabeal at Anne Perk Warracknateal. Dim boole has been playing good football but it will meet a strong side at Warracknabeal and on its own ground will likely gain the points. The engagement should draw a large crowd. Murton will probably gain lost points at Nhill, and Minyip will struggle to down the repairtide at Minyip oval. Minyip at home might win, but it should be a close game.
