I lead all weekend and then lost at the last minute

[Frankfaust]

I apologise for my rubbish team and promise to consider meditation as a team sport next winter, instead of SC.

[LordSneeze]

Gonna be a delay on the writeup this week.

Only on my phone until late tonight.

[LordSneeze]

Fake news is rife with rumours coming in thick and fast. There is talk of several teams with 20 trades left already, others who have given up and some more who are smoking some seriously mind altering drugs. The amount of news that is sprouted by the media to the masses has meant that huge amount of teams have been struck with the popular player issues. This has allowed players to chase points and we are seeing the signs of this with very few FF members in the top rankings compared to previous years. The Byes will be where the men are separated from the boys as the structure this year is the hardest I have ever witnessed. Getting 18 playing in R11 & 13 will be key to moving up the rankings.

Round 4 Results
Division 1



Match of the Round â€" Jive Turkeys vs Peptides FC
In The match of the round Peptides FC can thank his lucky stars that his opponent Jive Turkeys posted a score that was even worse than his own. Anytime you get a win with the 5th lowest score in the league you must have been lucky with the matchups and Peptides was just this.

In the other results, Bluebaggers went HUGE in a round of poor scores to knock off Corkascrew whos 2030 was unlucky to not get 4 points on the board. Cunning Coyotes had just enouh left in the tank to power past Spinach. Mountalizians FC had no difficulty in defeating Don’t Dog LeBois. Stubbsy’s Heroes won a very tight contenst with bombers rule by a mere 4 points. Terrifying Glue kept his strong form going with a win over McBasketball. TruckAKABigtonka is hoping his big win over Brainpharts is the catalyst for a turnaround in form. SCHILLACI was way to strong for ics best who lost the percentage he gained last week. Bored Saints skinned Tiger of Old with a strong 64 point victory.

Division 2



Match of the Round â€" Team Pendles vs Engineticians
The match of the round was a humdinger of a fight with Team Pendles putting Engineticians in the sword during the last stanza of the encounter. Team Pendles good score of 2037 was just enough to take home the 4 points. Both teams have been competitive this year and will be hoping the form continues going forward.

In other results Bull Dust was too strong for Flying Fids winning by 127 points. Likewise Afghan Cameleers won by the exact same margin, but over MC’s Mix. Frogjumper was able to jump a little higher than The Sloane Ranger. Raging Marshmellow got a win with a low score of 1861 over a very disappointing Beef Tannen FC. Bloods won a high scoring affair over Milk Milk Lemonade. I have No Cluery scored strongly to easily dispatch Tigertuff. AENIMIST had a 101 point win over $Blues. Ringos Rocky Road won a tight affair with Koop’s Kickass

Division 3



Match of the Round â€" The Flaming Goats vs The Abusement Park
In the match of the round The Abusement Park put on a clinic for the competition, showing all other teams what is will be required to be competitive this year. Both teams have been up and down so far this year and will need to develop a little bit more consistency to be able to be around the mark come years end.

In the other matches, Hammertown snuck a win past GDog by 17 points. . put on another good performance to knock off a poor FISKER FC. Lenneth won a high scoring encounter with The Inner Game. FIGJAM somehow got a win with a paltry 1808 over Nolittleblackbook. DMCC XXII had no trouble in knocking of Ka-Boom. KickaKrowy got the token win over Echuca flyer. Shanes Shakers put in an impressive performance over Ellis inWonderland. SydneyRox putting on a 89 point victory over DazCats.

The Leaderboards
It was an utter demolishing by BlueBaggers this week. In a week that most people struggled he put up a huge 2234 which was 108 points clear of the next best from all leagues and more than 200 over the average score. Taking home the 15 points was . with a not too shabby 2126. Rounding out the top 3 was Lenneth with his 2108.



There was little change in the FF Medal leaderboard with Flying Fids holding his number 1 position for another week. Gdog is only half a point back, with $Blues sitting on the low step of the podium a futher 1 point back. Given the leader is only on 33.5 points 1 good week by any team will see them move well up the leaderboard.


The overall leaderboard has compacted in the last 2 weeks with Mcbasketball still holding a small lead over a strong chasing pack. Leading the chasers has been the consistent Terrifying Glue and ., but there is only 143 points separating 2nd and 10th.



Good luck and LS Out

Nice write ups LS
Yet again this week my Coyotes edged in front in the final term to take the win.
They have been playing ugly footy but keep managing to get the job done :P

[LordSneeze]

In all my time as a Supercoach player, never have a seen a season where there has been so much concern about rookies, underperforming & overperforming premiums, must have midpricers and crazy SC scaling, both good and bad. Just hold a thought that all of this is happening BEFORE the byes, where in previous years issues do not start rearing its ugly head until after the byes are completed.

As a good summary to the season Eminen says it better than anyone
“The truth is you don't know what is going to happen tomorrow. Life is a crazy ride, and nothing is guaranteed.”

Round 4 Results
Division 1



Match of the Round â€" SCHILLACI vs Brainparts
The match of the round lived up to its billing with both teams producing scores that would have been worthy of the win. SCHILLACI 2049 was not enough to eclipse Brainpharts 2102. Brainpharts will be breathing a sigh of relief after last weeks very poor performance didn’t destroy the confidence of his team, while SCHILLACI was unable to string together a second string.

In the other results, Bored Saints was part of a competitive match with bics best ultimately taking home the points and pushing bics best into a losing streak he will be desperate to break. Tiger of Old pulled out a 2106 to be too strong for Peptides FC. Mcbasketball won another very competitive fixture with Jive Turkeys by a huge 16 points. Stubbsy’s Heroes put down a big market to knock out Big Tonka, while Terrifying Glue went even larger to have a percentage boosting win over Don’t Dog Lebois. Cunning Coyotes snuck his snout past the post first against bombers rule in a very low scoring affair 150-200 points lower than most other scores. Mountalizinas FC’s roar was too scary for BlueBaggers scaring him off early in the match. Corkascrew won an epic with Spinach continuing the rivalry seen in other seasons.

Division 2



Match of the Round â€" Frogjumper vs Bull Dust
In the Match of the Round Bull Dust was just too strong for a underperforming Frogjumper. Bull Dust continues to prove why he was a favourite at the start of the year and will likely be around the mark come the post season. While rumour has it that Frogjumper is considering wholesale changes for this week in an attempt to put pressure on the leaders of the club to perform on field and not just in the pub.

In other results Engineticians justified his spot on at the pinnacle of the league with a big win over fellow contender Flying Fids. MC’s Mix hd no issue in taking out Team Pendles. Beef Tannen FC came up against a poor Afghan Cameleers and put him to the sword, then drove it in with a mace. Milk Milk Lemonade bounced back to form with a strong win over The Sloane Ranger. I have no Clurey had his eyes firmly set on Raging Marshmellow taking the 4 points before his trip to China. $Blues took advantage of plaing on his home turf with  a big win over Bloods. Ringo’s Rocky Road was never worried by Tigertuff who had a league low 1810. AENIMIST was the lucky winner being the only team to score sub 2k who managed to get the 4 points.

Division 3



Match of the Round â€" Lenneth vs Hammertown
In the match of the round Lenneth continues his run of wins with a 81 point vicotyr over Hammertown. Both teams are feeling confident about the way the season is progressing and their chances at finals and top 4. Continued good form and the right choices are going to be crucial in a league that appears very much wide open.

In the other matches, GDog got over the loss to Hammertown quickly taking apart . whos team has been performing admirably over the recent weeks. FISKER FC account for FIGJAM in the Capital F Cup. The Flaming Goats smashed a very poor The Inner Game. Ka-Boom took a 60 point win in his stride leaving Nolittleblackbook in his wake. KickaKrowy put another win on the board in a high scoring affair against an unlucky The Abusement Park. DMCC XXII put Shanes Shakers through the Ringer with a 38 point win. DazCats token win was turned on its head with a massive 215 point loss to Echuca flyer, is this the season turned around? SydneyRox is now on a roll with a win over Ellis inWonderland, who can stop him.

The Leaderboards
Terrifying Glue has taken the top prize for the second time this year, just proving once again that is clearly the team to beat overall. If he can get a bit more consistency he will be very very hard to knock off the top spot. Coming in 2nd was echuca flyer, yes you read that right, echuca flyer. The 15 points is a welcome surprise for the team that everyone was marking down as a gimmee win. Rounding out the top 3 was Engineticians only 1 point off second who appeared in the top 10 for the 3rd time in 7 rounds, a great achievement in its own right.



The big story for the week is Terrifying Glues huge points haul and the consolidation of the rest of the league with only 3 points separating 5th and 13th placed competitors. So far there are 19 teams that have yet to register a single point including a few inside the top 20 overall points scorers.




No discussion yet as I have run out of time.

Massive score by Sam, LS went down by 3

Yeah he pulled one out, but it was not enough for the number 1 position for the week.   :o

I didn't deserve to win and probably sitting correctly on a 3-3 record.
