The Brethren are one point ahead of Albury and Temora in the tight battle for the last finals spot.
Coming off three straight wins, coach Terry Westblade knows his team can’t afford to drop a game, especially against the team on the bottom of the ladder, if they are to maintain their slender advantage.
“They are always tricky games aren’t but hopefully we can keep our momentum," Westblade said. "That is what we are focused on.
“We can’t take anyone for granted that is for sure.”
Unlike a number of their rivals, one thing in Brothers advantage has been a distinct lack of injury concerns.
They come into the clash unchanged from the win over Tumut last week with only Ethan Mackenzie (broken hand) unavailable.
Meanwhile the Bulldogs are focused on getting off the bottom of the ladder.
