The top two teams – Lae Snax Tigers and PRK Mendi Muruks – will be on bye for the final playoffs this weekend.
Coach Stanley Tepend said the week’s break gives them time to get their bodies rested, especially the players carrying injuries.
“At this stage we know we’re playing the Muruks so we will go as underdogs as they beat us two weeks ago,” he stated.
“They were unlucky against the Vipers on Sunday but I know they will want to bounce back against us.
“Muruks are a good side with strike players everywhere.”
