Comment:
Surprisingly, when looking at the figures it is Cooley that come out more impressive.

They have a greater spread of scorers to the blues 13 to 11players...
They have the same amount of goals as the Blues, in fewer games. 
In fact, they have only 11points less than Blues in total having played 2 games less than them!


Furthermore, 6 of the goals the blues scored were in one game against Mattock and the other goal was a penalty against the Pats. Indicating the Blues forward line might like good on paper but in reality they are not as potent.

A couple of things to take into consideration Andy McDonnell and Colm Judge didn't play in the earlier games. 

So once again there is along of question marks on what way this game is going to go!
