No-one has hit the tonne yet, and Simmo will be replaced by Cutler meaning I essentially don't have a sub. Captain Barlow going alright though.

Barlow with my first 100+ score for the week! Judd should go alright though, and my boy Cutler will kill it of course 8)

[GoLions]

Rams are 1061/12

Dragons are 1148/13

Rocky C + C Wood + 87

vs

Adcock, Hartlett, L Taylor

i reckon it's going to be an upset heaps depends on Rocky just need 200 as C out of him minimum i feel

Have you included HGA as well? Would love to see an upset here!

[kilbluff1985]

no but i think his will 45 for Hunt

Rocky C hopefully 200

C WOOD about 80 going by his form this year

+87

so 367 vs his 3 and 45 HGA for Hunt i think

so it's close Hartlett needs a big game for him

[Nige]

Still need 100 from all my players, damn it.

Luckily Hartlett's in good form.

Adcock's had some quiet-ish few weeks, hopefully saved up for a big one this week.

Squizzy is the one I'm most worried about, the bloody Lions will probs make him sub or some bullshower like that.

Edit: I've also got Masten as sub who should be good for about a 100. Might be really close.

Liverpool Rams - 1061/12 with C

D: B.Houli 65, J.Gibson 88, G.Birchall 104, J.Adcock

Barlow with my first 100+ score for the week! Judd should go alright though, and my boy Cutler will kill it of course 8)

Pity Cutler is the sub especially when he is covering for Simpson.

[Ringo]

Some results look like coming down the last 2 matches of the round.  A couple of very close matches looming as have been alluded to esp Rams v Dragons which will more than likely come down to the performance of Masten as sub.

Scores as I have them * indicates Captain named and first team named will have the HGA but not yet added. No subs taken into consideration at this stage either. (Small difference in scores are rounding issues in my spreadsheet)

Hedgehogs 1003/11*  v  Steins 1023/12
Hedgehogs will HGA should get over the line but strong showing by Steins.

Breakers 1176/12* v Hawks 1180/12*
HGA should see breakers home but very close.

Rams 1059/12* v Dragons 1157/12*
To close to call and as said above performance of Sub Masten may hold the key along with HGA for Rams. A strong performance from Dragons Captain Tom Rockliff could negate this and produce the upset.

Cruisers 1062/12* v Bunnies 949/11*
Cruisers should be safe with Hga but a big performance from key Bunnies players today may change the result,

Giants 661/10 v Hoods 949/11*
Even an outstanding performance by Captain Ebert will not save the Giants in this one.

Hurricanes 1152/11* v Owls 1160/12*
Hurricanes with HGA should get over the line here as well.

Badgers: 858/9* v Magic 1137/13*
Will be close and Badgers have been set back with the late withdrawal of Kade Simpson. HGA may be sufficient to see Badgers home in a tight finish.

Werewolves 1084/11* v Leeches 1187/12*
This is another tight one which may again come down to HGA.

[GoLions]

Bradford Badgers 1077/12

DEF: Kade Simpson DNP, Shannon Hurn, Shaun Higgins 82, Sam Butler
MID: Michael Barlow (C) 104x2=208, Dion Prestia 93, Michael Rischitelli (VC) 73, Trent Cotchin 81
RUCK: Tom Nicholls 77
FWD: Allen Christensen 110, Mark LeCras, Chris Mayne 84, Paul Puopolo 76
UTIL: Chris Judd (EVC) 97, Tom Lynch 80

EMG: Robin Nahas (F) 69, Billy Stretch (R) (OOP) 53/2=27, Tom Cutler (D) (SUB) 16, Jesse Lonergan (M) 57

Cutler on for Simpson

[Nige]

Liverpool Rams - 1186/14 with C and HGA

D: B.Houli 65, J.Gibson 88, G.Birchall 104, J.Adcock 52
M: D.Heppell 86x2=172 (c), A.Treloar 105 (vc), L.Dunstan 67, H.Hartlett
R: T.Goldstein 86
F: B.Harvey 107, T.Cloke 69, L.Taylor 73, N.Hrovat 55
I: T.Hunt 45, S.Wright 98

E: C.Masten (M - sub), B.Brown 61 (F), T.Varcoe 78 (D), M.Hallahan 73/2=37 (R - OOP)



So Hartlett and Masten to come. Hunt's score counts as HGA and has been added as Hartlett has passed it already.
