Here is the ladder after 15 rounds:
Division 6 Ladder
26 - Pulteney (ELIZ, BL, TOS) - Do they rest any players before finals? Do they keep try new things before finals?
22 - Elizabeth (PUL, IF, BL) - Tough 3 weeks. Can they get revenge against all 3 teams who beat them last time?
22 - Brahma Lodge (WC, PUL, ELIZ) - Two tough away contests and the top side at home. Can they win 2 to lock in a top 3 spot?
20 - Ingle Farm (SW, ELIZ, HD) - Form team only having to play 1 finals side. Can they get enough percentage to finish 2nd?
20 - Trinity OS (ML, WC, PUL) - Can thy go 3-0 and finish in top 3? Percentage will go against them but can they get a home final?
2 games that will decided top 3. Brahma V Elizabeth, Ingle Farm V Elizabeth
Anyone wanna have a crack at how they will think it will finish and what the first week of the finals will look like.
Think you have to include Pulteney's games with Elizabeth, Brahma, and Trinity as games that will decide top 3. Plenty of scenarios are possible pending the result of those three games involving the ladder leader.
Before Round 18, if Pulteney lose next two;
Elizabeth beat IF, would have Pul, BL, Eli on 26 points, TOS 24, IF 22.
IF beat Eliz, Pul BL 26, Eliz IF TOS 24.
If Pulteney win next two;
Ladder could look like PUL 30 Eliza (24 or 22), BL 24, TOS 24, IF (22 or 24).
Then its all to play for in Round 18 with Pul v TOS and BL v Eliz
As Bruce would say, special few weeks coming up!
Speaking of umpires, a certain div 6 captain was penalized for throwing grass in the air as he was about to take a set shot for goal. Umpire blew his whistle and signalled a ball up. Did not know that you couldn’t throw in the air. Have I missed a rule change ?!?
So how long have you been tied up with Trinity for?
A TOS icon.
Been good seeing him around the past two months or so, except for when Sturt are winning.
