British xv Round 11 Lodgement and Banter Thread

Ringo · June 10, 2015, 03:26:52 PM

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AS WE GO INTO BYE ROUNDS

Round 11 is the Start of the Bye Rounds.
Realise some new coaches as well so will explain bye teams processes for this year,
You are required to name your full teams this week but with a partial lock by bounce of Port Cats game Friday Night at which non bye players will be fully locked.
You can change Adelaide, Brisbane, Carlton, Hawthorn, Richmond and Western Bulldogs for the next week based on the following lock outs:
Adelaide and Hawks players will be locked at Bounce of Crows and Hawks game Thursday 18th June
Brisbane, Carlton, Richmond and Western Bulldogs will be locked at Bounce of Tigers and Eagles game Friday 19th June.
Adelaide, Brisbane, Carlton, Hawthorn, Richmond and Western Bulldogs named as part of your round 11 team will have their round 12 score recorded as Round 11 score.

Also note theat Captain, Vice Captain and Emergency Vice Captain will be locked on Friday 12th June so no loophole for captain available.

Round 11 Fixture
Grope Lane Giants v Hebden Bridge Hedgehogs @ Giant Stadium
Hedgehogs would be the favourites but the Giants have been showing some improvement in recent weeks so an upset win would not surprise.
Blackpool Bunnies v Oxford Owls @ Bloomfield Road
Should be a comfortable win to the Bunnies but the Owls have fallen a little lately so will need not get complacent as Bunnies can spring an upset if all players on their game.
Liverpool Rams v Bradford Badgers @ Goodison Park
This match should be a great tussle with Rams wanting to maintain joint top position and Badgers seeking a win to keep their chances of a top 4 finish alive. Rams on current form would be slight favourites.
Huddersfield Hawks v Leeds Leeches @ Galpharm Stadium
This probably the match of the round. 6th v 9th equal on points and only separated by %. Loser will probably fall out of the eight which would add to the intensity of the match. Leeches had an upset win over the Breakers last week and will looking to continue their recent good form. Hurricanes suffered a defeat by the Hoods and will be anxious to get back on the winning list.
Staines Steins v Winchester Werewolves @ Wheatsheaf Park
This match could get ugly with the Steins struggling for players and playing Top Team. Steins will be hoping for a competitive showing but Werewolves in a canter.
Swansea Breakers v Manchester Magic @ Swalec Stadium
Question here is which Magic Team will turn up. Magic recorded their highest score of the season last week and will be looking to consolidate but will find the task a little more difficult against the Breakers who suffered a surprise defeat at the Hand of the Leeches last week. Magic need the win to keep in touch with the top 8 and a defeat will put them 2 wins (maybe 3) outside the 8. Toss of the coin really but as has been said which Magic Team turns up.
Hastings Hurricanes v Birmingham Dragons @ Pilot Fields
Should be an easy win to the Hurricanes here. Dragons can surprise but hard to see them upsetting the hurricanes.
Crosby Cruisers v Nottingham Hoods @ Ewood Park
Hoods found some real form last week and will be looking to keep the momentum going into this week. Cruisers will be giving their all as this is probably their last chance to keep pace with the eight so Hoods can expect a real concerted effort from the Cruisers. Think they may fall short though,

Teams to be lodged in this thread and remember to use quote when amending as i expect numerous updates over these 2 weeks, Similar rules will be in place for the next 2 rounds as well.
