2022 Head-to-Heads
(i.e. what if these match-ups occurred every single week?)

Buenos Aires Armadillos (8 ) v Pacific Islanders (9)
New Delhi Tigers (9) v Rio de Janeiro Jaguars (8 )
Mexico City Suns (8 ) v Beijing Pandas (9)
PNL Reindeers (8 ) v Rome Gladiators (9)



And don't forget reserves!

There are 3 teams (Cairo, London, New York) who have made Reserves finals but not the seniors.

You may name an indicative senior team if you wish (or I will), which will be used to determine who will not play in your Reserves side. Obviously, this senior team must consist of players you would be naming if you were playing senior finals.

Buenos Aires Armadillos (8 ) v Pacific Islanders (9)

Mexico City Suns (8 ) v Beijing Pandas (9)

Wow! How are these match-ups?!

[Purple 77]

Special mention the no.1 scoring team of the H&A season in Rome! To think they received the wooden spoon last year in Russia :o

And then there's New Delhi! Finishing 2nd last to 2nd in one season. Outstanding years both, showing us all how it's done!

[Purple 77]

Also think it's unusual that this will be the first time ever Mexico City and Beijing meet in a final

[Purple 77]

And lastly, it would be remiss of me not to mention our 2nd qualifying final is no other than then 2016 GF rematch! Rio would go on to make history that day, and New Delhi would have to wait 3 years until it did the same. Great histories in both clubs.
