80 points were scored last time the teams met as the Black and Whites won 42-38.
As far as point-scoring goes, history doesn’t look likely to repeat itself after the Mallee Men had just eight – and Black and Whites 20 – points scored against them last week.
“If we can play like last week we can give every team a crack,” West Wyalong co-coach Mark Wood said.
“We were just red hot in defence, that’s about as good as you can ask for.
“If you defend well, the rest just falls into place.”
If you defend well, the rest just falls into place.

The last-start for West Wyalong comes despite the Mallee Men struggling to field a consistent side each week due to injury.
Likewise, the Black and Whites have struggled with injuries this year.
Just as the side looked to be getting back to full strength, Andrew Hoggart and Veti Mataa left the field last week and it is unsure if they will return this Sunday.
