Wanted to drop Wingard for Mayne as well, but as it's a big game would be a risk as their opposition are alot different :(. Captaincy goes to Lewis again, as he's been a shining light for us this season for Captaincy!

Buddy is making it up for you this week El :P.

Mixing meds can take its toll early days til you get use to them, hope isn't too long before sort of get use to them.

[Vinny]

826/9. Dunks underperformed quite alot but so far most have carried their weight. Macedonia on the backfoot with Broughton a late out and Captain Ebert not hitting the scoreboard hard, so will be a tough battle for them coming into the last two thirds of games.

[Vinny]

Damn HP, I just updated all the scores right before you did it yourself haha.

[Justin Bieber]

Updated 10 seconds before me :P. No harm, no foul.

[Vinny]

Macrae out too, Stallions would have gotten destroyed this week.

[elephants]

Ridiculous. Why couldn't this have happened last week ::)

[Vinny]

Scores updated.


Semi-Final 1:

Wolves (HGA + Dureya + Puopolo + Gunston + Bruest + Sutcliffe + Shiels + Gibson)
VS
Polar Bears (352 + Lewis (C) + Mayne)

Long way to go in the other semi-final where Wolves have over half their players still in action. Polar Bears currently lead by 352 points with Lewis the skipper and Mayne out there currently playing.

Semi-Final 2:

Bashers (HGA + 66 + Lachie Neale + Grant Birchall)
VS
(Brian Lake + David Hale)

Despite Birchall struggling to get in the game for the Bashers. Metal have Lake as well as Hale who cannot seem to find the ball. Bashers at home should prove to strong for the reigning champions, Metal.

Semi-Final 1:

Wolves (HGA + Dureya (58) + Puopolo (76)+ Gunston (53) + Bruest (75) + Sutcliffe (80) + Shiels (75) + Gibson (86))
VS
Polar Bears (352 + Lewis (C) (312) + Mayne (68))

583 not including HGA
VS
732

Captain Lewis does it again, gets us over the line :D. Certainly was a close one as alot of Wolves' players put up a solid showing to give us a scare! Really have to say, Lewis is picking up the void of our missing mids for the majority of the season.
