WXV Round 12: Will Cairo sink the Destroyers?

[iZander]

Also, OH GOD NO FYFE!

Worst possible round to have no Fyfe too ;)

Correct. No Fyfe against a team that beats Dublin is usually bad timing!

I also don't want the world to see just how average my team is without him (and gawn)

haha we called it  8)

[Toga]

Geez I love my midfield 8)

[Ricochet]

Sooo

PNL
1198 + Harbrow (92) + Casboult (50) + Brodie Keays (52/2) + HGA Keays (26)
= 1392

NDT
1313 + JMart (96)
= 1409

Jeez got away with one there

Are you sure? dont think OOP ruck is HGA, i think itll be Hunter and you lost by 3?? Purps?

[Nige]

Pretty sure HGA is lowest raw score.

[iZander]

Pretty sure HGA is lowest raw score.

Yep it is, just checked! Dillos and PNL woooo

[Ricochet]

Ah serious? Where's it state that? Thought it was after OOP, but honestly not sure

[iZander]

Ah serious? Where's it state that? Thought it was after OOP, but honestly not sure

I just checked to see what Purps did in round 10 results and it was raw score there

Damn you're right.

Well done PNL. Too good for us this week guys

[upthemaidens]

I think Pacific cracked 1500, starting to warm up for finals.   Looks to be a few upsets this round which will be beneficial in grabbing a top 4 spot.

[Purple 77]

yeah HGA is lowest raw score, I don't penalise you twice for being OOP.

Big if true! I should have given that game more commentary, but I was too busy sulking  :-X

[Purple 77]

@Dublin, no U2, E1, E2 or E3 named. On preferences... you actually had no one else play. Ouch. So just for completeness sake, I've named your next 4 players on your list according to preferences.

@Toronto, no VC, D4, U1 or U2 named. On preferences, they are now Lynden Dunn, Jack Macrae & Nic Naitanui respectively. Your VC is now Scott Pendlebury.

Undermanned Destroyers can still crush Cairo

Despite only 14 players taking the field for Dublin, they were still able to produce a competitive score and account for a Sands outfit that weren't having a good day. Can this team find steady leadership?!

Reindeers shock Tigers

UPSET OF THE SEASON! I'll pay 10 bucks to someone who can find me a bigger upset for 2018. Shiel, Merrett, Ryan, Wingard, Harbrow, all these players we've come to associate with PNL stood up and took down a genuine premiership contender. This result is just nuts, and one that REALLY hurts New Delhi's potential for a top 4 spot and a home prelim final.

Thunder spook the Danger out of Seoul

But even if Dangerfield was playing, the Thunder would just be too good. This much acclaimed fantastic 4 mids at Beijing again obliterated the game, combining for 553 points! WOW!
