SPORTSVIEW with Gerard Walsh

FINALS time is on and the Southern Downs has four teams left in the running to take some of those Toowoomba trophies south of Nobby.

I often say I only go to Toowoomba if I need medical help in a hurry and to get photos of our teams winning Toowoomba trophies.

So we are left with the Warwick Redbacks in Division 2 Aussie rules, the sevens women in rugby, the Cowboys under-18 side in men's TRL footy and the Warwick Wolves colts footballers.

Interesting it is one team from each code, the unlucky team is the Cowboys' second-division side which went down by two points on Saturday.

I am not going to put odds on which sides are most likely to win a premiership but the Rats, Wolves and Redbacks won minor premierships but you could say they all had wake-up calls at the weekend.

So what about putting the grand final dates in your diary and if they make it, head to Toowoomba to support the team/s you are closest to.

GF day in the rugby is September 2, it is September 3 in the TRL, September 8 for the Wolves and September 9 for the Redbacks.

Remember, I am seeking through this column supporters of the Water Rats women to join in a push to back the women to win the premiership. We say they will win and if they don't, do a few fun, strenuous things in a Ratathon to pay the price for getting it wrong.

Superbikes

SEEMS support is building for the Australian Superbike Championships this weekend in Warwick.

I work out to some extend support for events by the number of people who raise with me coming events like the superbikes.

And from where I sit, there is a fair bit of support for the bike weekend.
