WXV Round 2: Cairo's Crown

[Purple 77]

"Not this week sorry": Coniglio

A very realistic 114 was needed by Captain Coniglio to win this game for Moscow, who so heriocally won Moscow the game last week. But, it was not to be, as a stronger Pacific team (particularly the backline) cruised to a comfortable victory.

Moscow Spetsnaz (20.9.129) lost to Pacific Islanders (22.9.141)

PNL succumb to Terrific Toronto

An improved effort on last week, but there is some gap between these two teams that was always unlikely to be bridged in one weekend. Who let go of Rowan Marshall to these guys?!

Roused Revolution roll regretful Dillos

The midfield may be fixed at Buenos Aires, but the inexperience in the forward line is plain to see. That was the difference between the two sides in the end, as team-switcher Mitch W Brown correctly identified the greenest grass on the day.

Buenos Aires Armadillos (19.10.124) lost to New York Revolution (21.11.137)

Cobras pass second test as Royals fall short

Despite the loss, another four centuries from London just validates the path they've embarked on. Ben Cunnington was probably the difference in the end, leading a new steely Cobra resolve.

London Royals (20.10.130) lost to Cape Town Cobras (21.7.133)

[Purple 77]

Odd head-to-head records you say?

That was Tokyo's 3rd win over Dublin (out of 8), whilst Berlin strangely has beaten Seoul 7 out of 8 encounters.

[GoLions]

Nice to win the wager :)

[PowerBug]

Oh there’s auto subs for early injuries? Cool!

Wasted a 142 score on the worst team though, that’s disappointing
