The Saints moved to 9-1 with a routine 59-22 win against Marrar on the weekend, and next host Temora (9-0).
North Wagga is looking to atone for an 11-goal loss to the Roos in round three, and both sides are neck and neck on percentage (Temora 221.69, North Wagga 22.6.76).
Nothing other than a win will keep their minor premiership hopes alive, and North Wagga coach Flynn Hogg believes they're better placed to test Temora's unbeaten run than earlier in the year.
