The young Orange side plays fourth-placed Bathurst St Pat’s on Saturday before finishing the year against competition leaders Bathurst Souths, and there’s nothing to say they can’t produce monumental upsets in both games.
While the Saints beat them 5-2 the first time around the sides’ last encounter finished 3-all, the Orange side fighting back from two goals down and almost snatching a victory.
Granted both those clashes have been in Orange whereas Saturday’s is on the Saints’ home turf, where the Bathurst side tends to grow an extra leg.
With St Pat’s four points adrift of third-placed Lithgow Zig Zag, Wanderers could all but resign the Saints to that spot with an upset win.
The clash starts at 1.50pm.
