Shute Shield: Who’s on first, what’s on second – all the final round machinations
By MARK CASHMAN
The teams that will play in the Shute Shield playoffs in 2020 have been decided but there are still a number of pieces of the jigsaw that need to fall into place in Saturday’s final round of the minor premiership.
Only minor premiers Gordon are secure in the knowledge that they will finish on top of the competition with a number of clubs in danger of dropping three, maybe four places in the final six.
For example Northern Suburbs could slip from their current second place fifth while Eastern Suburbs could jump from fourth to second with a bonus point victory over Randwick at Woollahra.
Here are some of the scenarios that could unfold on Saturday.
