WXV Round 8 - Pumas/Suns in Match of the Year

[ossie85]

think kreuzer and betts put together can get 76 points or lower?

There is a chance right? Both could get injured........  :-\

Not looking good :(

Trengove, ouch!

[ossie85]

Right. Just to confirm CrowsFan....

Sao Paulo

Jacobs, Sloane, Waters, Tuohy + Home Ground advantage (likely 21)

versus

Mexico City

Goddard, Riewoldt + 55


Possible for Mexico, but would take a BIG crash. Probably need 300 points between God and Roo

[PowerBug]

I think i'm copping a hiding, my euros team is gonna outscore this mob by about 200 points. :-\

Argh! I was cruising against you FS! But then those 3 scored 569 points between them!!! 569!!! wtf! And then Yarran was named sub :( Damn it.

Now it is:

You: Dal Santo, Duigan, Koschitzke + 253

Me: Dangerfield, Yarran, Steven, Gram, Stanley + Home ground

:( Going to be very tough, damn you Yarran!
