With the winter break upon us and nothing but Turkey and bevies, which team(s) will benifit from the time off to get healthy and fit and which team(s) will do fcuk all and pick up injuries in the New Year???
My guess, the break will help the Langley's, GEU's and PAU's of the
FVSL Premier Division... Langley will undoubtably go twice a week with only a handful of vets indulging in a few pints... Mind you, Fenian will have enough for the whole squad!!! GEU do have a coach this year and some depth, (for a change) they should improve with a few of the injuried coming back to battle in the midfield... PAU could go either way, but I believe we will be stronger a more consistant in the New Year... We have (IMO) the best schedule from which to produce from and the only thing that will hold us back is ourselves!!!
The break will kill Lions, Dewdney and Chilliwack... The Lions cannot get any better in the standings and now have other teams out for them... Their inexperience in this position may really heurt their chances of a top 3 finish??? Look for them to grind out matches without much results to show for it... Dewdney as a new comer to the Div. will get fat and out of shape IMO/... They are not used to playing a big game week in and out and their time off will absolutely murder them... Chilli have nothing to gain out of the remaining schedule... If they do not battle in practice and keep in top form they could bow out early in the PAK and struggle to prepare for the BC's... They may just be their own worst enemy???
