Saints captain Jack Hill was pleased with his team's effort against the top-tier Trevallyn.

"We've had two really good wins for the year now, ones that we weren't expect to win," he said.

"Games of cricket ebb and flow, but I think we remained pretty steady in momentum [against Trevallyn], especially in our bowling innings.

"We're starting to recognise moments in games and we're grabbing them."

Longford find themselves in second place courtesy of Trevallyn's loss. Tigers captain Jackson Blair said not much has changed for the side as they continue their winning form.

"Our bowling's been massive ... they've been doing the job for us week in, week out," he said.

"Hopefully they can continue that for the rest of the season."

Blair was wary of the pitfall Trevallyn fell in a week prior, but was confident his team were ready for the Saints. "They're [George Town] going to have their tails up and rightfully so, that was a good win," he said.

"We've just got to take a few early wickets and get into their tail order because they have some dangerous hitters up the top that like to go hard early."

Hill had nothing but praise for the Tigers.

"I believe Longford are the best team in the competition, I'm happy to say that," he said.

"Their culture, the way Josh Adams coaches - we played them earlier in the year and there was about 100 people there watching them.

"They're an outstanding club and I hope George Town can be half of what Longford is in a few years. We'll look to learn from Longford's experience and try to be competitive."

Hadspen's notable batting attack swept aside fourth-placed ACL by 113 runs last round. The latter will face last-place Evandale this round, who are coming off a loss of their own against the Tigers.

ACL captain Shaun Woods said the walloping at the hands of the Chieftains was "devastating".

He said the side needed to put in 100 per cent against the Panthers in order to remain in the top four, with Perth hot their heels.

TREVALLYN will seek to bounce back against Bracknell after their saintly upset last weekend.

Captain James Whiteley said it was a bitter loss.

"We didn't play as a team whatsoever," he said.

"We've seen some good signs at training these last couple of days so it [the loss] could've been the little jolt we needed going into finals."

Having won their last three contests, PERTH are one game out from evening their record at 4-5.

Captain John Hayes said the team was hitting its stride in time for a finals run.

"We have a better team this time than we did when we last played them [Legana] so we're pretty confident," he said.

Hadspen has a bye.
