Lamboghini again showing what a find he's been for 'Jing. Could this be the return of the Zork? ???

Destroyers withstand Cobra fangs

A couple of nervous moments for Dublin when Hill scored 22, but the rest of the team steadied to ship to notch a win over the improving Cobras.

Revolution take down New Delhi Empire

WOWZER! We got so used to an injured New York that I think many of us forgot they were capable of this, but to do it against an opponent who demands such a score to be defeated? A fantastic win for the Revolution, and a potentially costly loss for the Tiges top 4 hopes.

Tiring Wolves hold on against Charging Magpies

Well that was surprising! Entering Sunday, the Wolves had this game all wrapped up. But injuries to Prestia, Captain Pendlebury in the 3rd quarter & a poor performance from Witherden left the door ajar for the likes of Oliver and Josh Thomas to swoop in for a would be amazing victory. Alas, Toronto's 16th man proved the difference in the end, with a HGA of 43 getting the job done over the Magpies. An incredible game.
