00:00After seven rounds, there's plenty in the ovens of Murray who say it's a six-horse race.
00:05But Oldwood Raiders, North Aubrey and Corroa Rutherglen won't play finals,
00:09and Levington has lost five straight to go two and five.
00:12Now, the last team to go two and five and play finals was Corroa Rutherglen in 2003,
00:17and it won the competition.
00:19Levington's not helped by the fact that it faces dual premiers Wenger at a Rovers on Saturday
00:24as part of a quirk in the draw, so it's likely to go two and six.
00:27If they fall to Rovers, as expected, they then face the bottom three, so they should go five and six.
00:33But it's the fortnight after that which will dictate Levington's season.
00:36They're away to Yarrawonga and home to Wodonga.
00:39There, the team's Levington will battle for the final spot, particularly given Aubrey's resurgence.
00:44Now, scum forward Sam Stenning is still four to five weeks away,
00:48and key defender from Geelong, Jesse Hart, is three to five weeks away.
00:52Now, that Wodonga game is July 11,
00:54so if they were to get Jesse Hart back as part of his preparation for returning to State League,
00:59that at least gives them two key defenders in support with Alex Bennett.
01:04History says Levington can't make it.
01:06Don't bet on it.
