Players to watch:
Sandringham – Cameron Shenton
Shenton is in career best form at VFL level, highlighted by his 28 disposals and two goals in last week’s win over the Borough. His drive off half back and physicality in the contest has become vital for the Zebras this season. If his form can continue, the Zebras will be well on their way to a win over the Blues on Sunday.
Northern Blues – Troy Menzel
The talented Carlton-listed Menzel gave the Blues added class and ball winning ability last week, where he gathered 23 disposals and kicked a goal. The Zebras will need to limit his influence due to his match winning ability.
