The two met in the opening round of the season when Saints won, 9-8.

Their next scheduled meeting was washed out, leaving Saints with the upper hand so far.

However, since that narrow loss the Warriors have batted their way to four victories and it's unlikely that Saints' pitcher, Tessa McGlynn will be able to restrict the Warriors knack of finding space in the field.

Six of their nine, namely Layhnee Kearnes, Montana Kearnes, Kimberley Dennis, Makaylee Little, Carmel Hutchinson and Kristy Tenison are in the top ten batters, on averages, in the competition. Add to those is the fine batting performance of Jess Swaysland, who had three from four last week.

Layhnee Kearnes is in grand form, not only with the bat, but also as a pitcher and Saints will need a strategically-placed defence to prevent her from being a match-winner.

Saints will hope to have three of their best bats in Kadison Hofert, Gemma McGlynn and DesiAnn Calder back in their line-up this Saturday and their availability will certainly strengthen their chances.

The Saints have the ability to limit the Warriors runs early, but expect the latter to power bat their way to another win.

In the other game on Saturday, the two Turvey Park teams do battle.

They, too, met in the first round of the season with the Reds proving too strong.

Since then both teams have had a win, with the young Blue team beating Saints, 2-1, in a thriller and the Reds successful over Saints last round, winning 6-3.

The Reds have potentially strong batters in Amanda Lenon, Sarah Carter, Jamila Piercy, Jade Olsen, Belinda Dennis and Anneka Piercy, all of whom will be expected to give the Blues' fielders some work.

Turvey Blue will have to improve their batting if they are to reverse the outcome of their last clash.

Nerida Bates has proved a real find and has performed well in both attack and defence.

Charli Hall has played her part in the lead batting role, but the likes of Amanda Gooden, Leila Wadley, Sophie Gooden, Phoebe Wadley and Ruby Thornely will need to be more consistent with the bat if they are to challenge the Reds.
