Daily rolling lockouts - all of a day's matches are locked out at the commencement of the first match of the day. Please make team updates post the first rolling lockout in a new post rather than editing, and remember - if you try to "loophole" to get a second chance at a captain/emg you'll get sacked and crucified (I know where you all live).

Colorado Avalanche 15.14.104 lost to San Francisco Grizzlies 15.15.105
(Real: 1565 vs 1574)

Add up the scores yourself guys, I'm not cheating here. A 9-SC-point thriller, with an obvious difference maker being Pick 1 Campbell (51) as opposed to Pick 3 Powell (101), or to pick on a random player...ex-Grizzly Brayden Maynard only managing 49!


Best
Colorado: Cerra, Hickey, Schoenberg
San Francisco: Viney, Stewart, Lambert, Powell

Boston Terriers 18.12.120 defeated Carolina Panthers 16.11.107
(Real: 1796 vs 1612)

Carolina had three tons out of four in the backline, plus a 92...but a forward line with a top score of 56 will always make it hard to compete, as well as Grundy not exactly doing Grundy things. Boston were very good, and would've been better if they didn't need Zurhaar's 5.

Best
Boston: Smith, Wingard, McInerney, Keays, Walker, Laird, Selwood, Langdon, Goldstein
Carolina: Short, Bontempelli, Naughton, Docherty, Aliir


Chicago Sharks 16.11.107 lost to Wisconsin Cockerels 19.7.121
(Real: 1611 vs 1810)

Now this was a weird game, as both teams had essentially two donuts in their XVIII (Hurn 6 and Jordan OOP 24 vs Daniel 19 and May 7, and hell could even lump showerty Fantasia and Robertson in there too) but also busted out some huge CC scoring, with Wisconsin unfortunately having the better firepower needed to get the W.

Best
Chicago: Parker, Oliver, Andrews, Bowes, Guthrie
Wisconsin: Macrae, Gawn, Miller, Darcy, Bililngs, Impey, Ziebell


New Brooklyn Hawks 20.7.127 defeated Las Vegas Sinners 20.6.126
(Real: 1897 vs 1895)

Surely one of the best matches in ASC history? Steele puts the team on his back with a spirited 150 as captain (with help from 120+ scores from AA-lock Membrey and the best GC young player), as Vegas goes down for "only" having a 113 and 107 as CC, as the switch to Petracca or Fyfe would've been matchwinning - how foolish to pick CCs as players only averaging 110+!

Best
Brooklyn: Steele, Membrey, Anderson, Bolton, Lever
Las Vegas: Petracca, English, Fyfe, Lyons, Naitanui, Mitchell


Anaheim Mighty Ducks 15.16.106 lost to Quito Quetzals 18.14.122
(Real: 1590 vs 1830)

Borderline whack that Quito managed to put up a 122 with a 44 at D2, two 50s in the midfield, a 24 and a 46 up forward, and no sub or HGA, but they managed it because just about every other player tonned up to get them a comfortable victory over an Anaheim team also with their stars and their duds, with their inexperienced utilities barely combining for 100 between them, but they can boast the best SC player in the competition (so far this season) in GOAT Ridley.

Best
Anaheim: Hardwick, Ridley, Mundy, Merrett, Kennedy
Quito: Greenwood, O'Brien, Curnow, Greene, Swallow, Dunkley, Houston, Hopper, McCluggage

Ottawa Otters 16.11.107 lost to Houston Bombers 17.8.110
(Real: 1607 vs 1652)

Another close(ish) game to end the round, as Houston get the W on the strength of, in part, actually having a sub. Not much else to say about this one tbh.

Best
Ottawa: Treloar, Jiath, McGovern
Houston: Doedee, Saad, Clark, Wines, Pittonet
