The Greendell Falcons pulled the plug on their Majors team this weekend making the Manitoba Major Junior Football League a stronger more competitive league.Β A perennial under achiever the Falcons came out of the gate struggling this year and their demise was both predictable and inevitable. Their players have now been released to join other teams bringing almost all of the remaining teams in the MMJFL up to full roster.
This weekend there are two games on tap in the MMJFL, each game having great significance.
The Westman Wolverines are playing host to the Transcona Nationals. This game is the first in a back to back matchup. If either of these teams can sweep this home and home series their chance for making the playoffs increases dramatically.
Transcona Nationals vs Westman Wolverines, Saturday, September 5 @ 3:00 p.m., Vincent Massey High School, 715 McDiarmid Drive, Brandon
The heavy weight slugfest occurs Saturday night at the Mustangs corral.Β This is Part Two of the Mustangs vs Eagles regular season match up. In Game 1 the Eagles came back in the last minute of play to overtake the Mustangs by a score of 17 to 14. There were many points left on the table that night so this rematch could be high scoring and thrilling with many lead changes.
Eastside Eagles vs St. Vital Mustangs, Saturday, September, 5 @ 8:00 p.m., Mustangs Field, 100 Frobisher Rd, just off St. Maryβs at the Perimeter.
