Review
Blighty Teasdale won the minor premiership but it was the best team of the year who ended up winning the premiership as Ross' Magpie Mafia swooped on his first premiership win in the Hogg. The Mafia had a good year last season but they really upped their game this season and they proved very hard to defeat, particularly in the early rounds when the Magpies were unbeatable. The top four sides all looked good things to be promoted with JOBBY perhaps the main threat to them. Killer Wombats had a solid finals series as the Wombats and the Magpies had the edge over Blighty and The Dukes.
There were a few hard luck stories in the relegation fight as relegated Power Failure scored 8th in scoring but went down to Division IV. Meanwhile FootyLegends and ZedForce could consider themselves very fortunate not to be relegated this season. The Kiwi stopped winning weeks ago and the team that slipped late was CDFC1965. Always good to see the Doggies struggling LOL.
So in the end, the team that was on top nearly all year won the comp but this was a very competitive league with the rankings going up all the time. Blighty had his most consistent season as did The Dukes and JOBBY was successful at this level. Congratulations to Magpie Mafia, the 2019 Hogg Division III premiers. Well played Ross.

Hi Reb
Thanks for running comp again this year and doing the reviews etc , was a shocker year for Power Rules this year losing some close games , hopefully back to Div 4 next year regroup and force my way back to div 3 again
