The Wolves are hungry, but these Cobras are ready for the test. Toronto for me in a tight contest!

Dublin are decimated, however the year is not slowing down. Moscow could get up here, and I reckon they will.

The Thunder went bang last week, whilst the Royals quivered in fear to ravenous Jaguars. I'm tipping some PTSD from London, Beijing will get up.

The Samurai did it a couple of weeks ago, and they'll have to do it again. The Magpies are building to the form we know they're capable of, and I reckon it's just a matter of time before we see it. Seoul for me.

The wall is being built, but who is keeping who out of the promised land - in my MATCH OF THE ROUND! The Revolution continue to perform above expectations, whilst the Suns are also trending upwards. For two rebuilding teams, getting a win here will be one to hold over the other for the year to come. I reckon the Revs will run out of puff, and the Suns will get up.

The Reindeers are trying, but ultimately need more from its bottom 5 players. The Islanders have had a reasonably poor start to the year compared to their lofty standards, but should get the win here.

Cairo have been buzzin on their win over the Destroyers, and armed with Mummy, can take on anyone. The Tigers though continue their pissing contest with Toronto, which is really getting out of hand. Hard to see any other team beating those two.

The Saints say farewell to their controversial coach, whilst Berlin will kneel down and prey for a quick Fyfe recovery. Surely I get up?

The Dillos are searching for more from their team, which is not quite living up to its promise. The Jags - phwoah - delivered a mighty performance last week, so it'd be an injustice to tip against them here.

Need his experience in the reserves, may even decide to rest him. If Bowes got DEF/MID like he should have then things would be so much easier aha
