more than half my squad so why not ;) also could be bias but I would go Walters over Edwards given his last two weeks.

^ fixed your picture Holz

[Purple 77]

Oh yeah forgot about Walters... yeah I would probably put Walters in for Edwards

[Justin Bieber]

Given either one of them would only be 3rd emergency :P.

[Holz]

Given either one of them would only be 3rd emergency :P.

I would have played him over hoff but thought that would be Dublin bias

[Holz]

Jelly what a superstar.

[Nige]

H-Mac subbed, because this wasn't already an uphill battle.

Oh yeah, that's right... Europe just had to have Joel Selwood and captain too.

We probably should have just forfeit.

[CrowsFan]

Did the Americas even name a team??

[Nige]

Can we attempt some kind of equalisation for the Continental Cup too, Oss?  :P

[ossie85]

Ladder!

Crazy Ladder still... Americas still #1 despite scoring least, while Asia bottom with 1 win and percentage over 100 :/

Rank      W   D   L   PF   PA   %
1   Americas   4   0   1   731   752   97.21%
2   Europe   3   0   2   797   729   109.33%
3   Africonia   2   0   3   750   819   91.58%
4   Asia   1   0   4   778   756   102.91%


Means Americas and Europe guaranteed finals, with Asia having to beat Europe, and hoping Americas win against Afriocnia, to qualify.
