Half time and it's Scorps by 27 and I'm told Wills is safe Labor and its Batman that's the closely contested poll.

My correspondent from out Coburg way in the electorate of Wills where they say there is going to be a close battle between the ALP and the Greens, is telling me that the Scorpions' Development League team is also locked in a tight contest with Coburg. Both could come down to preferences.
