Sub Rule Please



Mummy needs to outscore Apeness by 45 for us to win.

Highly unlikely.  :(

[Jukes]

Always good to play shower but still win :)

We flooded and had back scores of 79, 61, 59, 52 and 47 ::) never saw that coming

Flooding has cost us a win. First and last time.  >:(

[CrowsFan]

Well went down to the Cobras. It's disappointing though because if the game had been played in Brazil then we would have won :(

[Nige]

Need to gain 20 points through scaling to win.  :(

[AaronKirk]

Cairo very unlucky.

MY FIRST WIN!!!

PNL did all they needed to against New Delhi, who are amazingly still in spoon contention, but a lot would have to go wrong!

NY Get The Win in Thriller

Finally the New York Revolution find that win! But it went down to the wire with Co-Captain Travis Cloke doing his best to lose it for them.

Special mention to David Armitage who scored 72 points as a forward for New York!

Last home game for Cairo, who are now on the brink of sensationally missing the finals.

Buenos Aires Aim for the Top

With Dublin taking care of Mexico City, Buenos Aires aim for that Minor Premiership. Can they do it?

Ugly Moscow Get the Win

Not a pretty game by the Spetsnaz, as Pacific can count themselves lucky they didn't get a bigger thrashing, as a Spoon looks on the cards.
