New Delhi have been the picture of consistency so far this year with scores of 130, 130, 138 and 132 but has only netted just the one win so far against Toronto. However their 3 losses have come against teams ranked in top 5 offensively
Matthew Boyd like consistency there


After a tough run to start with, NDT should get back Jezza Cameron and maybe Wellingham, and get a win back here against Tokyo

2 points to clarify.

Dublin hasnt been beaten at home since mid 2014 except for london.

Are pnl and new york even giants :P

Well there's the New York Giants after all ;)

PNL & Us are 4-7 rank teams I'd think, so maybe Cairo are up and coming contender killers, not giant killers hehe

I did put in a question mark didn't I?!

:P

Personally I reckon Holz is a real gentleman letting Cairo go 3-2 after 5 rounds.

It's a good move, because he knows Buddy ain't going to big vs my Eagles  8)

Actually, I've probably jinxed it now and Buddy will go huge  :'(

Holz knows what he is doing

Swans play Brisbane next week and key forwards score big vs them

yep thats why I rested him over Sloane Selwood Rance and Dusty.

It was all about the round 6 matchups.

Round 1: Josh Kennedy 180
Round 2: Jarrad Waite 174
Round 3: No powershouse forwards but Hawkins 89 and Kerston 91.
Round: Tom Lynch 114

also cant see him going huge on westcoast this week. Jetta actually in some good form and playing richmond who I dont rate (double blow for Nige at Cairo)

Depends who Merrett plays on. He didn't play Rd 1, kept Petrie to 70s while Waite went ham in Rd 2, kept Hawkins to 89 when the Cats belted us in Rd 3, and Lynch got away from him in the first quarter last week.

Granted, Buddy is better than those guys so could easily score 200 :P

There ain't much better when it comes to Neville Jetta  ;)
