XVs CL 2016 - Group Stage 1 (Rd 16) Dicussion thread

[iZander]

Assuming I translated things across properly, then NY sit as the 9th highest scoring team for the season. Just to show how ripped off my team is Hastings are 3rd, Serbia 1st and my lot are 29th, thus the huge odds on Kathmandu getting out the group. :(

Can i ask who's second? Dublin? Is that 1st and 3rd in the same group? what kind of draw is this ;)

Unfortunately for New York, Hastings premiership is a sure thing  :-X which of course translates to success in the CL

haha lets not talk too soon :P

Geez you've got New York in the market at $12? I'd have us in the "Other" market paying $51-1!

Nice to be the 3RD WXV team behind the big two though!

Hastings are going to pummel us this week :(

If Wells is out it could expose my forward line though :P Had a look at the new york outs and it looks like they are hurting you guys a bit :D

Getting past the group stage
Group A
Kuala Lumpar Crocodiles - $1.20
Bradford Badgers - $2.10
PNL Reindeers - $4.00
Macedonian Wolves - $4.00

Group F
Iceland Polar Bears - $1.70
Laos Elephants - $1.90
Huddersfield Hawks - $1.90
Pacific Islanders - $2.15

Awesome stuff PB! I like those odds for PNL, we had a rough start to the season, so we're coming on strong so can cause the upsets to make it to the next stage >:D. I am surprised Iceland top the odds for that group, we're really reliant on forwards this season due to injuries everywhere else.

Tomorrow I plan to have some more numbers regarding how many points each team is averaging per week for the season so far (up to Round 12), but from memory you are correct and Group C is the weakest. I also remember that I landed in the strongest group! >:(

Yep we're just making up the numbers in this comp given we underwent a rebuild at the end of last season. Add to that Fyfe being out for the season, Grimes not getting a game and Redden a shadow of the player he has been in previous seasons. Our depth has taken a massive hit and we got absolutely smashed over the bye period (as we play through the byes in Asians) as a result.

Might've been half a chance had we kept blokes like Boyd, NRoo, Jelwood, Mitchell, LeCras and Boomer but oh well.

I dunno who looks after the Belgian Bashers, but they haven't submitted here or within the EXV board.
I've concluded that they are afraid of Lambs!  ;D
