*note: Brian Harris legally changed his name before the start of the finals (which is how I missed his 105 points last week)

It is double points this weekend, so hopefully the Scorpions have a good weekend.

Not sure I can repeat that performance again, but we will see how we go.

p.s. Go the Sydney Swans against the Western Bulldogs !!
