UNIVERSITY Tigers keep on dom­inating their pool and go into Saturday’s AFL pre-season grand final as firm favourites.
Last Saturday, the Tigers easily accounted for new club Taurama Suns, but were pushed all the way by an improving Grafitti Kaboni in the second week of matches in the AFLPNG BSP Pre-season Cup.
In the other pool, the Hitron Bo­mana Cats prevailed but only after being pushed all the way by the Bom­bers and Magpies.
All teams are still in preparation mode for the 2013 season but early season form points to the Tigers and Cats being the teams to beat.
With no easy beats and new clubs bound to improve over the next month the 2013 AFLPNG BSP Cup appears to be wide open.
With a full day of AFL action on Saturday, all roads lead to Murray Barracks for what promises to be an exciting day of football.
