Bontempelli has brought AAP right back in this, with the Captain loophole inevitable.

If everyone remaining scores their average... AAP win this clash by 63 points, which is well short of the 230 required!

Clash 2: AAP overrun EurAsia - Panic to 10 year low

Since when does Clarry score 32?! A career low (probably) for the 176 game champion came at the worst possible time, indicative of the panic that struck the EurAsians late as they desperately try to cling onto the Clash 1 lead.

Bontempelli was inspirational for AAP, as was former EurAsian superstar Lachie Neale. Hayden Young (130) heroically led the charge from the defence in the last game too... was it enough?

2024 Result: EurAsia Stand Tall

Another absolute classic!

Game 1: AAP Alliance (26.8.164) lost to EurAsia (30.7.187)
Game 2: AAP Alliance (28.10.178) def EurAsia (25.7.157)

The series was tied at 1-1, so the overall points scored was the decider...

EurAsia scored 3432 to AAP Alliance 3421

That's 3 years-in-a-row this blockbuster match has been decided by 1 WXV point! Incredible. So many line-ball decisions across 60 players, to come down to 11 SC.

Congratulations to JBs-Hawks and kilbluff1985 for restoring order and taking back the title from the more fancied Alliance, whom now go 9-4 in the head-2-head.

DAN HOUSTON wins the EURASIA Medal
MARCUS BONTEMPELLI wins the AAP ALLIANCE Medal
DAN HOUSTON wins the WORLDS Medal
