WXV Round 1: World-War VI

[iZander]

so its

Sloane, Goldy, Hawkins, Hill + HGA v M.Crouch, Darling, JZ + 22

do wish i actually put a little effort into the team like sticking the VC on Dmart. Could use the 63 points im not sure im going to crack 150.

You cant loophole anyway so dunno what the VC on Dmart would of done?

[iZander]

So, of course I captain JOM over Hepp...

:P

???

Hepp scored 152, JOM scored 71.  :'(

I don't know the details, but we are going ok this week, disappointing JOM and Hepp exceeded my expectations. Hope he keeps it up!

Never doubt hep, never doubt him :P

[Torpedo10]

So it's 162 + Taranto + Talia + Bugg v Laird + Hampton + Gaff + D.Smith + Motlop + Stanley

I didn't doubt him, I just couldn't see him going over 130 last night.  :P

Buenos Aires Armadillos (806) from 11# vs Christchurch Saints (584) from 6#
The dillos were hamstrung from the opening bounce, with captain Curnow setting the tone for Florent, Green and Biggs to come. Despite the Saints only have done, a solid performance will see them win easily.

Cairo Sands (807) from 9# vs Tokyo Samurai (760) from 8#
The Sands are stoked to have Beams back, as he has lifted his teammates it seems! No sub-60 scores for the Sands has them on track for a respectable (and competitive score), that with HGA, might just get over the Samurai! Tokyo are relying on largely second-tier players to get them home, compared to Cairo's Mummy. I think the Sands from here!

Cape Town Cobras (1119) from 11# vs Beijing Thunder (868) from 8#
Some mighty fine scores from the Nank, Miller and ol faithful JPK have the Cobras on track for a mighty impressive score! 1500 is in sights if Luke McDonald and Sutcliffe can lift. The Thunder though are still in it, but would need Ward and Neale to reach their high ceilings. A great game on the cards here, but will back the team with the points on the board in Cape Town.

Dublin Destroyers (1062) from 11# vs New Delhi Tigers (1084) from 12#
Houli, Ross and Gray have all had absolute 'mares, to all but ensure New Delhi to... eat there humble pie. Whereas the magnificent Nathan Jones & Martin have played superbly for Dublin.

London Royals (784) from 12# vs New York Revolution (468) from 7
Not one of the more intense games of the round, admittedly, but both teams wouldn't like to be playing this way. London just need to forget this round ever happened, whereas Jelwood, Mundy and co should take the Revolution home.

Mexico City Suns (1192) from 12# vs Berlin Brewers (844) from 9
12 90+ scores from the 21 played so far has set the tone for both teams whom mean business. Captain Rockliff was superb in carrying Broadbent and Hickey, whilst Gawn & Franklin have allowed Fyfe to take the W with a captain's performance. It's all Fyfe from here IMO, and we won't know until late tonight who will win this game.

Moscow Spetsnaz (1051) from 12# vs Pacific Islanders (889) from 8**
In Heppell we trust! But no so much Bell & Rosa. They're the difference atm, with Pacific showing no weakness at this stage. The Islanders should bring it home from here.

Seoul Magpies (706) from 9 vs PNL Reindeers (722) from 8**
Selection disaster for Seoul will mean someone will have to be called up from Pyongyang and enter the game with a 75% deduction. The game is close; and a lot of it has to do with how Captain Danger does his thing. I think I'll back him to do just that, with CC Rioli letting the Reindeers down.

Toronto Wolves (782) from 10 vs Rio de Janeiro Jaguars (1169) from 12#
The Wolves! With an impending 121 guaranteed to arrive, Toronto are on track for a vastly improved performance compared to last year. But the reigning premiers' midfield has quashed most hope of an upset win, with the Jaguars likely to win from here.

[Nige]

Cairo Sands (807) from 9# vs Tokyo Samurai (760) from 8#
The Sands are stoked to have Beams back, as he has lifted his teammates it seems! No sub-60 scores for the Sands has them on track for a respectable (and competitive score), that with HGA, might just get over the Samurai! Tokyo are relying on largely second-tier players to get them home, compared to Cairo's Mummy. I think the Sands from here!

Look who finally decided to show some love to Cairo.  :P

Cape Town Cobras (1119) from 11# vs Beijing Thunder (868) from 8#

The Thunder though are still in it, but would need Ward and Neale to reach their high ceilings. A great game on the cards here, but will back the team with the points on the board in Cape Town.

This is gonna be close af aha, really need Ward and Neale to do the exact opposite of going nuts tbqh

so its

Sloane, Goldy, Hawkins, Hill + HGA v M.Crouch, Darling, JZ + 22

do wish i actually put a little effort into the team like sticking the VC on Dmart. Could use the 63 points im not sure im going to crack 150.

You cant loophole anyway so dunno what the VC on Dmart would of done?

I would have put a non playing guy in my ledership group and stuck him captain.

NDT did that.

I will never play gunston. Just a list filler.

Just didnt feel i needed to put in any effort. Was only playing NDT round 1 and i dont think you can use it another round
