I hope I win. Ensuring the way the points are measured changes forever

Personalised video of outrage is pretty superb I have to say.

Every van Beek point gains ground for Athlai on Straw Man, whose team has finished the season on 7952.4.

164 needed for Athlai to win the title, van Beek has 71 of them just after tea on day 1. Solia contributes from his 79th point of the game.

You've remained Podium Chewie by the looks of it. Four out of the last five seasons you've been third or better.

 

[Kippax]

Looking great for Athlai now. 57 more points needed to take the win.

 

[Athlai]

Feeling good, looking good

If a win requires Logan van Beek's batting, is it really a win?

 

[Kippax]

Athlai did sacrifice a lot aesthetically to get this victory (Macewell batting at 3, Hampton at 4), but he didn't sacrifice his loyalty to Wellington players which was nice.

 

[Athlai]

Macewell at 3 is Wellington craziness. He's batted so much at 4.

Hampton I think was frustration at missing someone I wanted

Was that when I took schmulian from you

[Athlai]

Truly a great day for Athlaikind

 

[straw man]

Congrats to Athlai and all of Athlai's usual cellar-dwelling kind. A win by the length of a Heef's Wreath.

Thanks to Kippax, Heef and Vandem (I think) for organising and scoring.

 

[Athlai]

Yeah it's particularly special when Macewell, Santa, Solia and Van Beek all contributed.

I must've picked them all quite a few times and finally they came good. Also Blundell and Rachin I guess.

 

[Prince EWS]

Congrats to Athlai. I think I'll finally have time next season to participate myself - looking forward to it already.

About a month away now from NZA playing a couple of first-class four-dayers in Australia.

Drafting for the 2023/24 edition can start on Friday 11 August. Seven teams or fewer, co-drafting a team will be allowed if you've arranged it via PMs. Winners from previous seasons who've entered before drafting begins will be auto starters. Look for the new thread to be created closer to 11/08.
