WXV Round 16 - Can the Royals handle the heat?

[CrowsFan]

Late change as Dylan Roberton has failed to overcome his concussion from last week, so Seb Tape replaces him in the side. Only got the 4 playing defenders this week, so hopefully no late withdrawals...

pyro! Long time no see :P

[pyronerd]

sup fellas :P


had to make my way out of the dark and highly secretive behind-the-scenes building of revolution headquarters to name the team this week as AFEV is away, on a secret mission

[Nige]

If by secret mission you mean enjoying Splendour in the Grass, sure.  :P

[kilbluff1985]

Yeah Ossie we don't have a third emerg that I could see  :P

Ross is named as emergency for St Kilda so he prob wont play anyway  :o hence naming Smith over him

Just ran through some numbers for the Destroyers vs Pumas match...

If everyone was to score their season average (Delaney average from last year as hasn't played this year) then the final scores, including captain bonuses and HGA for Destroyers, would be...

Destroyers 147 lost to Pumas 151
(raw scores: 1,473.95 and 1,507.24)

However if you do it just by the last 3 games each player has played then the score would be...

Destroyers 159 defeated Pumas 150
(raw scores 1,590.26 and 1,498.50)

Amazing the form that Dublin's players are in at the moment! Even though Pumas are second and Dublin are 11th on the ladder, I've got to say that Dublin are the favourites for this match!

It is amazing! Unfortunately for Dublin, I think they won't make the finals anyway :( But you never know!

Toronto is actually in danger of missing the finals if you look at there draw....

All i can say is wait till next year, I turned the Eagles from the 2nd worst squad in XVs (Dublin the worst) into the Best XVs squad. in a year

Have some ideas up my sleave to improve the team even more.

Yep - if Toronto lose to Cairo and London, Cape Town will pass them and probably London and Berlin on percentage also!

went youth crazy and traded away chapman and nroo meant i played OOP guys up front all year. Mummy injured most of the year meant i had OOP ruck for half the season. thats why i got the spoon.

[Maca24]

Good point, I think you are definitely one to watch in 2014.
Ill be making sure I'm still a flag threat next year.
