Swifts setting standard: Can any team stop them?


Anthony Breeze
THROUGH the great attacking play in Rugby League Ipswich Round four action, one club firmed as Premiership favourites.
Swifts again turned on a try feast against Norths.
Here's how this weekend's games shape up.
Saturday (5.30pm) - Brothers v Norths at Raceview
BROTHERS returned to form with a bang last weekend with a great win over Goodna.
Norths were on the end of a Swifts onslaught.
Brothers will be hoping playmaker Wes Conlon is okay. He was replaced at halftime. Most of Brothers attacking options come through him.
Conlon relies on his forwards setting the platform which then provides the required time to set up different plays to test the defence line.

NEW Norths A-Grade coach Michael Williamson concedes his team will be rusty for their opening game of the Rugby League Ipswich season after a first round bye.
However, Williamson was just as concerned about former Tigers mentor Gary Lawrence as his side prepares to tackle Fassifern at Harrisville on Saturday night.
Former Toowoomba Clydesdales premiership-winning coach Lawrence was appointed in the pre-season to take over from Mick Newton for the 2021 season.
However, Lawrence has stepped aside due to health issues.
Having overseen major junior development and premiership successes at Norths in recent years, Williamson accepted the club's invitation to take on this year's A-Grade side.

Footy fires up: See how the A-Grade teams look


Here's how the three A-Grade matches shape up.
Saturday (6pm): Jets v Swifts at Rosewood
The Jets are the new team on the block and will face a side that is strong across the park in the Bluebirds. The Jets will be lacking in combinations early in the season due to many players not knowing each other's game but by the halfway mark and beyond will develop into a much more cohesive unit. The Jes will be causing trouble as the season rolls along.
The side is coached by Intrust Super Cup legend Phil Dennis, who will also dust off the boots.

Beware Brothers: Footy stalwart rebuilds powerful unit

HAVING lost a majority of their 2019 premiership-winning side and taking a year off, Brothers Ipswich could have been scratching for A-Grade players this season.
But typical of Brothers professionalism, the powerhouse Ipswich club has rebuilt and recruited well for their first game of the 2021 Rugby League Ipswich competition.
Back for his fourth season as head coach, club stalwart Jason Connors said he had "less than half'' of his side that beat Swifts 35-10 in the 2019 grand final.
After Brothers sat out last year's makeshift Volunteers Cup competition, a number of players moved to other sports or devoted more time to their families.

AS some clubs blame the cut in match payments for fewer numbers this season, the Fassifern Bombers are surging ahead with added enthusiasm.
Preparing for next weekend's opening round of 2021 Rugby League Ipswich matches, Fassifern club president Paul Roderick was upbeat.
He said his country club was more focused on team bonding and providing entertaining game day programs than getting bogged down in less financial benefits for footballers.
"We are looking to see what else we can do for players, not just match payments,'' Roderick said.
"We done a training camp at the start of the year and a few different things where the boys went down to the coast.
