[Purple 77]

Yeah trading period is over, I think it was the last thing ossie did before the end of his tyranny  :P

Reckon the team that scores the most over the NAB cup should be the preseason premier?

Doing a great job Purps

Sure, why not.

I have noticed his two good scores  ::)

But... SC is a bull shower representation of what he does in a match lol. I don't care if his disposal accuracy is 75% or higher in any given match, HE IS THE WORST KICK IN OUR SIDE... and yet he does pretty well for a KPP in SC! I don't understand  :-X

[Purple 77]

The 3rd and final round of the pre-season! Results as follows, as per norm, best XV taken regardless of position, and no captains.

Mexico and Dublin must have heard last week that there would be a winner to this comp, sending a message to the rest of the comp of what's to come.

NDT still struggle to cover the loss of Dawson, with rumours that co-coaches ric and ele are looking over their shoulders as they walk the halls at the NDTFC.

[Purple 77]

The winner of the pre-season cup follows a pretty simple formula this year:

The winner is the team that scored the most points from all 3 weeks (i.e. the best XV scores from each week were added up, not what the whole team scored each week).

Thought it was the best way to go, seeing as none of us really care about pre-season  :P

So without further ado, the winner of the 2015 WXV Pre-season is...

THE MEXICO CITY SUNS

With 7 players averaging 100 from at least two games, it should really come as no surprise that the Jimmy Bartel (scores of 148, 126 and 91 with a team high average of 125) led Suns secured their first pre-season title.

The Suns join the Crowsfan/HoneyBadger lead Sao Paulo Pumas (2012 & 2014) and the JBs-Hawks led Seoul (2013) in the teams to have won the pre-season title.

Well done!

The full results are as follows:

Team    Total Score
Mexico City Suns   4324
New York Revolution   4183
Beijing Thunder   4133
Tokyo Samurai   4056
Cape Town Cobras   4002
PNL Reindeers   3863
Seoul Magpies   3856
Berlin Brewers   3852
London Royals   3851
Dublin Destroyers   3793
Christchurch Saints   3788
Rio de Janeiro Jaguars   3675
Toronto Wolves   3586
Pacific Islanders   3543
Moscow Spetsnaz   3531
Buenos Aires Armadillos   3506
New Delhi Tigers   3275
Cairo Sands    3184


Special mention to Beijing! Is this signs of things to come? With Eddie Betts, Lachie Neale and Harry Taylor averaging over 110, have they entered the finals' challengers group?

Kudos also to New York, whom stayed resilient despite a tough pre-season regarding injuries  :(

Questions to be answered Cairo?

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! #preseasonspecialists
My older guys out in some big scores, but good to see the younger guys in Cam Ellis-Yolmen and Kamdyn McIntosh doing well too.

[Torpedo10]

Disgusting effort by Moscow, Toronto & Cairo, we've gotta lift our game.

[GoLions]

In our defence, we didn't have Rocky all pre-season
