i think wages would be much better, ok late in the season it's not that good due to training but at the start of the season it's pretty much spot on. BTR can dip a lot due to form. and Reporters summaries dip a lot due to PF

From now on i think it should be taken from where you finish. Why should I (if i'd still be rated number 1) finish 3rd this season and be ranked number 1 for the next?

promoted team ranked 4th for their league. Relegated ranked 1st

I would say it's only for this round. After that the teams will have sorted themselves out and what you say above will occur.

Week 3 - Match Previews:

Divison 1:
One of those leagues where an upset can cause huge mishap [and work for me]. Assassins find their last obstacle in their clear path to the title. Undefeated so far, Assassins are most likely to clinch the win. On the other hand, Everton face Murderers. Not something that can affect the result of the table unless Assassins lose.

Prediction:
Assassins (fav) vs The Falcons
Murderers (fav) vs Everton

Divison 2:
A little easier than the top division, the matches look straight forward. The Wulfs can beat out-of-form Bushwackers, And in the absence of Dawson, Rabbitohs are less likely to withstand the Angels. But don't forget, anything is possible.

Prediction:
Bushwackers vs Old Wulfs (fav)
Rabbitohs vs DeViLiSh AnGeLs (fav)

Divison 3:
A Clean Relegation/Promotion battle. Winner takes it home. BFN Bombers lead by Samuel fight it for the top against Sri Krishna Team, while Norfolk N Chance and The Monkeys!!! play to stay afloat.

Prediction:
BFN Bombers (fav) vs Sri Krishna Team
Norfolk N Chance vs The Monkeys!!! (fav)

Divison 4:
Similar to Div 3, Blues and Mongooses fight it out to decide who move forward, while Albion and Hampton play it out to see who stays.

Prediction:
Albion CC vs Hampton Central CC (fav)
Baggy Blues (fav) vs Fighting Mongooses

Divison 5:
This ones tough. So far, Record Breakers have outplayed themselves and they now face Greenbank, who haven't won a single match. Match number 2 doesn't matter, unless Greenbank pull it off and beat Record Breakers, thus tying up RB and one another team for 1st place.

Prediction:
Record Breakers (fav) vs Greenbank
Hunting Tigers (fav) vs Blanco Blitzers

Divison 6:
Doubtless, the Raiders have beaten the Sharks, and the Sharks have beaten Mental Blank, naturally, we expect Raiders to beat Mental Blank, and proceed up easily. While on the other hand the Sharks face the Kings, who haven't won a match yet.

Prediction:
Java Kings vs The Southern Sharks (fav)
Raiders Eleven (fav) vs Mental Blank

Divison 7:
Its a bigger fight to stay up rather than go up. AP look to be favourites to win the league, though Michele beating Gamer is something that AP will need to look into. On the other side, the result for the Penguins vs Gamer match too is a mystery.

Prediction:
Sneaky Penguins vs Gamer XI (fav)
AP (fav) vs St. Michele CC

Divison 8:
Another close league. Though it looks like Ross XI can make it, the Bears are likely to try their best. It looks unlikely that Hubbas can break their losing streak.

Prediction:
Ross XI (fav) vs Warwickshire Bears
Aamirs Rockers (fav) vs Hubbas

Divison 9:
The only match that is to be seen is the Cape Town Colts vs AshXI showdown. Winner takes it home.

Prediction:
Cape Town Colts vs AshXI
Hilfydaman vs The Winning Shamen

Note: No matches were played to decide favourites

Ladder updated btw...

I still think I will beat Raiders Eleven. Thanks for the predictions.

 

[Griffo]

Looks like Greenbank will be joining us ROSE V WOTTON ITS ON!

As for the question further up the page, if two teams tie on points it will be decided by the winner of the previous fixture, if three teams tie it must be decided on Net Run Rate.

Also as regards to Division 1 (You will have to check with Effine) That the champion was whoever remained 1st when the season ended not just after 3 fixtures

Note: I could be wrong

 

[borncricketer]

nice predictions voldy!

 

[aussie1st]

Hey I don't want the favourite tag! Thought my match of the season was 2 weeks ago but that turned into a 1 sided affair so over to my true match of the season against my biggest rival Angry.

Challenge sent to St.Michele CC

 

[iloveireland]

[zainawan89]

PM Effine as said in the thread

OK, sorry for my outburst last night.

I just wanted to have a toss but my sister woke up and came in the room so I couldn't so I got in a bad mood. Then my gf called, and talked for 40 mins about nothing but crap. So I was so annoyed.

I went over the top, Ill admit. But it it's still crap how you play 3 games away....

Oi Griffo, did you know that I could still promote? If I beat AP then I would go up wouldn't I? Because I beat Gamer by a greater margin then him (Assuming Gamer beats the Pengos).

[covlad-99]

It wasn't luck it was downright skill!

Even though I enjoy talking about footy, we should continue this in the NRL thread in the sports section

Man I sound like a mod!

Things are harder to read when you do it a 3 in the morning...

Also as regards to Division 1 (You will have to check with Effine) That the champion was whoever remained 1st when the season ended not just after 3 fixtures

Certainly not after 3 fixtures...
