One of the closer games for the Roos was in round one against the Warriors, where the two sides were neck and neck up until the main break.

Wariors ran away with the game in the third quarter. 

The Roos are coming off a disappointing loss to Ararat Rats, where they were toppled 125-47. 

The Warriors have problems as well after they suffered a demoralising 124-59 loss at the hands of Horsham Saints. 

Dimboola is in dire need of a win having not managed a single point from the opening seven rounds. 

The Roos side has enjoyed a quiet couple of weeks away from the football paddock and return refreshed following the interleague round. 

The Warriors sit in fourth place, four points from third place and could move level with the Saints should the Horsham side fall to the Minyip-Murtoa Burras on Sunday. 

Warriors coach Brad Thomas said his team could not underestimate the Roos. 

“They have some quality players and big bodies,” he said. 

“We have a couple of injuries going into the game but that just gives some of our younger players the chance to step up.” 

Thomas said the work rate of the team and distribution was not as good as it could be. 

“We seem to be coming in and out of games and our intensity isn’t there,” he said.   

“We need to be ruthless.” 

Koby Stewart will return for the Warriors after missing large parts of the early season with a groin injury.
