WXV Continental Cup

[ossie85]

Round 5 Fixture

Asia v Americas
Europe v Africa/Oceania

(Choose your XV from 18 WXV teams, 8 AFL teams playing finals)


Ladder after Round 4

Team   W   L   For   Against   %
Europe   3   1   670   599   111.85
Americas   3   1   636   615   103.41
Asia   2   2   585   596   98.15
Africonia   0   4   567   648   87.50

Tough for Africonia to make the finals now! They need to win both remaining games, gain percentage, and hope Asia don't win another.

Europe and Americas are neck-and-neck for top spot, with top spot going straight through to the finals.

Pfft, Buddy won't play this week!

All your players play for crappy teams lol

[CrowsFan]

Ok here is a provisional team for the Americas, just in case I don't name one later in the week since I'll be busy...

Def - Enright, Birchall, Houli, Hartlett
Mid - Pendlebury (C), Swan, Barlow, Cornes
Ruck - Roughead
Fwd - Johnson (VC), Walker, Bartel, Chapman
Int - Sidebottom, Ebert

Emg - Hodge, Christensen, Burgoyne

So there are 5 Armadillos, 4 Suns, 4 Pumas, 1 Revolution, and 1 Wolf in the starting XV. Everyone gets at least one player :)

[Purple 77]

I know lol. Daniel Jackson, Shane Edwards and maybe Reece Conca the only other guys in my best XV playing in finals  :-\

[CrowsFan]

It's alright purps, the only guys I can offer up are Houli, Hartlett, Duncan, Hill, Walker, Roughy and Gunston. Most of mine play for the crappy clubs too ;)

[Jukes]

Fyfe, Shaw, Seedsman, Thomas, Dusty, Monfries, Walters, Vickery...not too bad

[Nige]

Africonia are in real strife.

Europe
Teams: Moscow, Dublin, London, PNL, Berlin
Head Coach: Hellopplz (finally!)
Assistant Coaches: Purple 77, Holzman, Ringo, Jukes

I'm so happy :'( (Tears of joy).

[ossie85]

Yep! This comp died, but because I don't like leaving something unfinished, I'll finish it! I think the mistake was rotating coaches, reckon would've been better to just have the one....

Anyways..... teams were selected purely on average (except Americas, cheers CF)! Scores for the finals were not included in decision making of XV

Asia (24.14.158) defeated Americas (23.14.152)

Best
Asia: K Jack, B Gibbs, B Deledio, C Judd
Americas: J Bartel, M Barlow, S Sidebottom, Brad Ebert, K Cornes, D Swan, S Pendlebury

Kieran Jack wins a Representative Medal

A massive win for Asia, as they keep hope of either hosting a prelim or going straight to a Grand Final alive! Body blow for Africonia, as this means they are out of the race. A lot of contributors for the Americas, but it was Asia captain Kieran Jack that was the match winner.


Europe (20.17.137) lost to Africonia (23.13.151)

Best
Europe: N Fyfe, C Wingard
Africonia: D Beams, JP Kennedy, M Murphy, T Cotchin, J Gibson, D Hale

Dayne Beams wins a Representative Medal

Africonia get their first victory after an impressive display! The stars of Europe had bad games, including star midfielders Travis Boak and captain Joel Selwood. Meanwhile Dayne Beams was superb and captain Trent Cotchin solid.


Which means with one Round to go, the ladder is:

Team   W   L   For   Against   %
Europe   3   2   807   750   107.60
Americas   3   2   788   773   101.94
Asia   3   2   743   748   99.33
Africonia   1   4   718   785   91.46


1st goes straight to the Grand Final
2nd hosts a preliminary final against 3rd

So big epic last round!

Round 6 (AFL Finals Week 2)

Africa/Oceania v Americas
Europe v Asia

(Choose your XII from 18 WXV teams, 4 AFL teams playing finals) <-- note 12 players not 15. 3D, 3M, 1R, 3F, 2I

If anyone wants to coach one of the teams, let me know, and I'll send you the list! First in, first serve.

[Nige]

I'll stick my (our) hand up for Africonia.
