WXV Round 1: The Debut of Christchurch and Rio de Janeiro

[Nige]

It isn't too bad. I mean, if I can understand the rules, they can't be too confusing.  :P It does take a bit of time to understand everything though.

I think this first round especially has just been a slight clusterflower with all sorts of things happening.  :o

I think this first round especially has just been a slight clusterflower with all sorts of things happening.  :o

This, and the fact that at this very moment I just don't have the patience to try and understand isn't helping me lol

I'll look over it with a clear mind at another time, and I'm sure I'll be fine :)

[Purple 77]

Just a heads up, I'm still limited with my resources (i.e. away from my beast computer where all my spreadsheets are), so I hope to post the results (and game reports) tonight, and the rest of the end-of-round stuff tomorrow afternoon-ish.

[Nige]

I'll try and get the TOTW and Rising Star up tonight if I can as well.

BEIJING WIN! Comiserations to the Wolves, nothing went right for you guys by the looks of it.

But stoked to kick off the season with a win! Even with two OOP forwards who combined for a total of 26.5 between them, huge efforts from Eddie Betts, Tommy Bell (against his former club), Cale Hooker and skipper Ollie Wines get us over the line.

[ossie85]

Some great results to start the season so far

Underdogs getting up everywhere.  :o
