Rest of team fairly shower though :-\

On phone so I'll see if I get this right

1044 + 146 (boyd c) is 1190
Plus barlow 107 makes 1297
Then mayne 77 gives 1374
Lonergan on for lecca brings me to 1391
Lecca hga comes to 1446
And bonus points equals 1466

Would've been nice if the dogs didn't sub boyd.

We come to the end of the home and away seasons:

Know we are reviewing the fixtures for next year but having the round Robin has advantaged some and disadvantaged others.  Th Big loser are the Hoods who dropped from 4th  to 8th and the other being the Owls who dropped out of the 8.  The winners being Hurricanes who went into the Top 4 and the Cruisers who went into the 8.

This weeks rounds just showed how tight the competition will be within the 8 as a couple of results were decided by HGA.  Werewolves and Hawks staged a battle worthy of a final with Werewolves getting home by HGA. (Raw result had Werewolves in front by 1 point).  Interestingly if 4 other teams in the top 8 (including Hoods) were playing Werewolves they would have defeated them. Bring on the finals and on their day any in the 8 could beat any other.

Another interesting fact from this round 5 teams had no changes including sub scores.  This no doubt a result of some subs unexpectedly being named subs themselves.

[Nige]

Damn, was hoping the Werewolves lost or that we at least won by enough to make up the percentage differential (would have had to smash the Hoods).

Oh well, still super happy to end the season in 2nd. Bring on finals!

[Pkbaldy]

Looks like you'll get the HGA this time Swansea! Bring it.

[Rids]

What a week to get injury after injury.....

Steins way too good! Let the rebuild continue for the Giants. Long trip but Nostra and I are excited by the challenge.

All the best to all in the finals!
