WXV Round 15: London to determine Beijing's Fate

[Purple 77]

BURGOYNE BOIZ!

where was the VC loophole? (surly you have fyfe in your leadership group?)

Aw, I could have put him in the Leadership group at the expense of Fyfe, but then, because Fyfe would then be out of it, I couldn't name a non-playing player in my leadership group as captain and therefore loophole Burgoyne's score  :-X

BUT DAMN IT! I could have totally loopholed him in champions league! >:(

[AaronKirk]

Lewis since his recall to the leadership group has been smashing it. Another solid 116

Gibbo solid as usual.

And updating the minor Premierships....

AAP Alliance
A victory to Mexico City over Christchurch almost gives them the AAP Alliance flag again for the 3rd time (though Rio can still catch up on percentage).

Christchurch needs to annihilate Mexico City, and hope results go its way, if it is any chance of taking the title out

Rio de Janeiro would be hoping Christchurch upsets Mexico City, because if it does, Rio would just need to beat Cairo and Toronto (I think) to take the flag. Even if Mexico City win, they could still theoretically catch up on percentage.

Buenos Aires a mathematical chance, but isn't going to happen

EurAsia

A win over Moscow secures the EurAsian flag for the 1st time for PNL. A loss would leave the fate in the hands of others....

New Dehli are in a surprisingly good position. If PNL lose to Moscow, they have the percentage to take it out if they can beat Buenos Aires and Beijing well, and hold off Dublin's charge.

Dublin need Moscow to beat PNL, and need to make sure they hold off others in percentage. Dublin can still do it!

Beijing's percentage hurts them a bit, but again need Moscow to beat PNL, and just win by as much as they can.

Europe

This is wide open. All barring London a chance to win this really. Even Moscow! Who play PNL, Dublin and Berlin in the final 3 matches, could theoretically win them all and take the title.

PNL, with a win over Moscow, goes a long way to sercuring the title. But not for sure. Dublin and Berlin could catch them on percentage.

The Dublin v Berlin match is basically an elimination for Europe. Destroyers still a big shot, but Berlin - who is not only the only team that has never won Europe, but has come last each year - would be desperate to avoid last place again.

Americas

No action this week.

Rio de Janeiro just needs to beat Buenos Aires in the Rhythm Cup to take out the Americas for the first time, though even a loss could see them win it.

Mexico City need Buenos Aires to beat Rio de Janeiro fairly well to take out the Americas for the 3rd time.

Asia

No action this week.

New Delhi and Beijing will play each other later in the year, the winner will take out Asia. For Beijing it will be the 1st time, for New Delhi it would be an incredible 3rd time.

Africonia

Has been over for a while, with Pacific taking out its first Africonia title

Great read oz!

I'm flowering over being the Europe wooden spooners >:(

@Cape Town, I see you missed naming your gun JPK  :-X

A couple of options for you to conisder:

1) Name a team without Sydney and Hawks players; or

2) Take a strike for not submitting a team (no penalty now, but do it again and a premiership point is deducted), and get this team based off preferences (note that only the Syd/Haw players are locked in this team so far):

D: Brodie Smith, Matt Dea, Jarryn Geary, Lachlan Plowman
M: Josh P Kennedy (C), Lachie Hunter (VC), Dom Tyson, Darcy Parish
R: Mark Blicavs
F: Tom Hawkins, Craig Bird, Peter Wright, Touk Miller
I: Callum Mills, Dean Kent
E: Gary Rohan, Blake Acres, Nicholas Graham

[ossie85]

I know I've probably been inconsistent, but shouldn't it be either name a team without Hawks or Sydney players OR get a team named entirely on preferences? Otherwise a little double dipping...
