it goes by how you finsihed on the ladder.

So Suns finsihed 2nd and Roulettes finisehd 3rd. So coming up agasint the Suns is not really an issue as 2 teams go through. The issue for you is you get one of this seasons bolters in the Bashers who finished 7th instead of a team like the Titans who have gone young and are seeded 4th.

Look at group 1, thats an easy group for Sao Paulo, but than again they were the minor premiers.

[elephants]

Ah ok, cheers mate. Guess we will have to surprise a few to get outta this group!
