Sportal Super 14 Fantasy League

[BoyBrumby]

Cometer & me continue to maintain our 100% starts, but our esteemed interloper steven remains handily place in 3rd. Cloete returns to winning ways by beating Sam Vimes & Steds proudly flies the flag for the 13-man code as he defeats Natman & moves up to 5th.

At the bottom The Baconator agonisingly fails to open his account, going down by a mere point to another of our non-CW chums.

Byes this week for The Stormers & The Crusaders, which for those of us who've been relying on St Daniel of Carter for most of our points, means a tricky decision ahead.

Byes this week for The Stormers & The Crusaders, which for those of us who've been relying on St Daniel of Carter for most of our points, means a tricky decision ahead.

Hmmm...might have to consider changing team.

 

[cometer]

I've been preparing in advance I probably won't even need to trade Carter just put him on the bench for 1 week.

 

[BoyBrumby]

An interesting round! I manage to maintain my 100% record by beating Marc's AA is clueless, but cometer comes up against a non-CW resident in great form & goes down to the bobo raiders.

Our main non-CW threat goes down to a resurgent Adam, but the result of the round has to be The Baconator thumping Cloete by 74-28 to open his account. Steds beats Sam Vimes to maintain his creditable 5th place.

Rather worringly we now have an all-CW bottom 5 tho.

Byes this week for The Cats & The Brumbies.

[steds]

Take that, Norway.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Take that, Norway.

Bah. At least it wasn't 3-76.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Another week, another win! My high-flying The Fen Brumbies comfortably defeat Jamee's Foxes of Rugby to maintain my perfect start. Cometer returns to winning ways after last week's blip, but the match of the round has to be that doyen of the 13-man code Steds defeating Cloete's Roaring Reds in a 2-point thriller.

We still maintain an all-CW bottom five. Way to go, chaps!

Byes this week for The Hurricanes & The Sharks.

[cometer]

looks good. Haven't checked this week's but im pretty confident i would have got over the line .

 

[BoyBrumby]

He's right, you know. His 120 was comfortably enough to defeat Jamee's Foxes of Rugby . The Fen Brumbies (managed, of course, by yours truly) successfully repel Adam's challenge to maintain my advantage tho.

Some surprise results elsewhere: Marc's AA is clueless belie their name to best our leading non-CW challenger steven, allowing closet Union fan steds to make it an all-CW top 3 again with his win over another guest's team.

At the bottom The Baconator's Vindscreen Vipers beat Sam Vimes's Glimt XI to haul himself off the bottom & condem the plucky Scandinavians to last spot.

[BoyBrumby]

All good things must come to an end & finally my "0" had to go. The Fen Brumbies run into Cloete's Roaring Reds in superb form & go down by 8 points. Cometer's Cometer2006 defeat a guest's team to leave my superior points difference as the only thing seperating the top 2 teams now. Steds again shows his supposed dislike to the senior code to be a myth as he beats another guest team to remain in third.

At the bottom Sam Vimes downs Jamee's Foxes of Rugby to condem them to the wooden spoon position.

Natman tops scores for the round with 159 & his victory over Marc's AA is clueless lifts him above two guests' teams, meaning it's now only an all-CW bottom 4. Well played that man!

Byes in round 11 for The Waratahs & The Highlanders.

[Jamee999]

5 lost in a row!

 

[steds]

Steds again shows his supposed dislike to the senior code to be a myth as he beats another guest team to remain in third.

Okay, I admit it. Yawnion > Socey. Not bad to play, either. But's that's it!! Going no further. League is still better, and you're all still all southern pansies.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Great. As we get closer to the finish line it seems I'm having a choke! The Fen Brumbies lose their second in a row to one of our esteemed guest teams, meaning cometer takes over at the top courtesy of his win over Cloete.

Steds draws level on points with me by beating Marc & our main non-CW threat steven hangs in there by beating a fellow stranger. With three rounds left it's down to these four now it seems.

At the bottom Jamee beats The Baconator to haul himself out of the wooden spoon position & condem his vanquished foe to take his place.

[Cloete]

I've been so unlucky

Had an absolute ripper to beat you thought, Dale!

 

[BoyBrumby]

I've been so unlucky

Had an absolute ripper to beat you thought, Dale!

Yeah, thanks for that. One win in your last five & it's against me!

 

[cometer]

I've been so unlucky

Had an absolute ripper to beat you thought, Dale!

Haha yeh and thats put me back in the frame now. Need to win the next 2 first then hope Dale loses one before the final round showdown

 

[BoyBrumby]

I'm back on the ball! Eat my Rugby dust.

Sorry, came over all Alan Partridge there for a second. My first win in 3 weeks allows me to take over at the top on points difference after cometer allows himself to be bested by our top non-CW bod steven. Steds' challenge is also weakened after he is stunningly bested in a 2-point thriller by Jamee's Foxes of Rugby.

At the bottom Jamee's win looks likely to spare him the spoon as does Marc's victory over fellow strugglers Vindscreen Vipers. Norway once again weeps for Glimt XI as they go down to a guest team, but Glimt XI's superior points diff keeps The Baconator's Vindscreen Vipers at the foot.

Hmmmm...

 

[BoyBrumby]

Bugger. I gloated too soon. The Fen Brumbies come unstuck big time against our leading guest team & with cometer also going down to a non-CW bod & steds shading Adam by a single, solitary point we have the top 4 teams all level on points going into this weekend's final round!

At the bottom The Baconator defeats yet another guest team to leave Sam Vimes's Glimt XI propping things up after their defeat to Marc's AA is clueless.
