WXV Round 8: Controversial Rests, Personal Bests and Ultimate Tests

[RaisyDaisy]

Of course Treloar goes this big

We've done so well this week, but Dublin guns are going nuts

I reckom its over. Hiscox ended it. I just cant nail that u2 position.

Caprain winning by 50, hga and hiscox will be the difference.

Captain winning by 50 and HGA is probably equal with the massive scores Treloar and Sloane got you

Hiscox at U2 - maybe depth is Dublin's achilles heel

nah i keep picking the wrong guy and actually i stuffed up playing hiscox i think i was trying to putsomeone else in that postion when currie was out.

thats ok Yarran Weits Roughy should be coming back soon.

Daw 97 would have been a good pick. daw actually is a good scorer.

Everitt, Tuohy, Curnow all killing it. Pacific are gone :(

Thanks for gifting Pendlebury to Buenos Aires  :-X ;)

[RaisyDaisy]

Even TMac is firing up today and on track for his best score for the year (including rest bonus)

Everything's coming up NY

[RaisyDaisy]

Redpath with 84 last week in his first game for the year and on track for another nice score today

Approx 30 players on our list getting games (a few injured atm)

#betterdepththanchristchurch :P

I knew putting the C on Gawn was a mistake against the Dogs  :-\ they tag rucks well do the dogs.

Ah well. Won't matter anyway. Except I might bow out in World Idol

[AaronKirk]

Now JJK has 5 first quarter goals. Everything that could go right this week is going right.

congrats just your week. Couldnt really stop you guys unless i was really on and we just wernt.

drop my second game of the year but hopefully we are stronger in the second half, like my SC just need to get my bench players off the field.

Don't worry, we won't be able to replicate this week again.

This must be a record breaking score for New York!

You know it's been a complete team effort when HGA is 81!

EDIT - make that 83!

New New Delhi; New Result

The Tigers have broken through for their win against the Brewers in an impressive display of midfield prowess. The Brewers couldn't really do much else except for choose the right Captain, but that wouldn't have made a difference.

Pendlebury's Dillos show Harder Exterior

Well! This was certainly unexpected! The Dillos haven't scored this high since 2014 and even a normal score from the Islanders would have struggled to win against the Pendlebury-led outfit. That's 4 in a row for the Dillos, and an annoying loss for the Islanders.

Suns Too Hot for Cobras

The Suns just keep on chugging. Is it September yet? The Cobras had waaaayyy to many under 60 scores, but such is the life of having heaps of future guns.

Royals Wrestle Victory from Spetsnaz

It wasn't pretty, but the Royals got it done. This is their 4th win, and each win has come from scoring 132 or less... kudos to the defence! The Spetsnaz need a big midfield boost if they want to win any more games this year.
