Well so far, so bad. ALOT of bad performers this round up forward not to mention Tank getting subbed off in the 3rd quarter, meaning we get his 23 ::). Unless Priddis rips away for a 150+ game, we're as good as gone in our first ever finals appearance :(.

F: D. Martin (103), A. Monfries (49), S. May (75), J. Jenkins
U: Z. Clarke (68), J. Simpkin (66)

1071/12 (one cc played)

So as per usual don't trust these scores 100%, somehow I usually find a way to mess up the use of a calculator :P

Basically we're looking at

Griffen, NicNat x1.5 and Jenkins + 186 + HGA (currently Monfries' 49)

vs

Pendles (x2), Young, White, Butler, Maguire

Don't trust those boys to bring me home, aside from Pendles I have 4 of the most inconsistent scorers possible.

[Jukes]

Inconsistent means they'll do good against me RB

If we win we won't deserve it, if we lose we won't deserve it :3

[Justin Bieber]

If NicNat is a late out as been floating around, Ward becomes full captain for Moscow, helping you guys at Toronto ;).

Yep, I believe Clarke moves into the ruck and Ellard's 89 comes onto the interchange.

Leaving it at Griffen, Jenkins and 362 (including HGA) vs Pendles (x2), White, Young, Maguire, Butler

[roo boys!]

Clint Young starting sub...don't tell me we get Morris' 28?  :'(

Looks like that'll end me. NicNat playing also

Yep.

[roo boys!]

Yeah I was relatively sure, just decided to clutch at some straws there

If only Greenwood wasn't out none of this would have happened.

[Jroo]

Sam Jacobs and Rory Sloane are going to post massive scores, Pumas still in this  :-\

1,298/11 + C

Pumas have hit the lead, with Sloane and Jacobs having massive games.
Down to
Suns - Sidey (CC), Hurn, Nroo + HGA

Just had a quick look at Europe v Americas scores for this week.

Fair to say it is an absolute slaughter  :-\

Lynch was on fire, then gets hurt :(. Scored 80 points in less than a half :o. But with the sub rule he goes out and we get Casboult.... Back to unlucky PNL :(.

Good game Cobras, too good when it mattered :(.

[Jroo]

[Pumas have hit the lead, with Sloane and Jacobs having massive games.
Down to
Suns - Sidey (CC), Hurn, Nroo + HGA
Pumas - Armstrong, Stringer, Minson, Masten + 65.5

If my calculations are right, it's now
Suns - Sidey (CC) 130.5, Hurn 29, Nroo 88 + HGA 53 = 300.5
Pumas - Armstrong 40, Stringer 126, Minson 60, Masten 45 + 65.5 = 336.5

So Pumas, have a 36 point lead, with scaling in the Dogs/Saints game and a half left in the Pies/Eagles game.
