RustyCage have successfully predicted his downfall as Brendamage duly collected the requisite upset win over the previously undefeated ladder leaders. Rusty put in a real stinker this week and would have been rolled by many coaches in this league but it was Brendan who did the damage. The win couldn't have come a moment too soon after eighth ranked iSwiTch collected the points to stay in the top bracket.

There were a number of key matches this week with Isotopes enjoying an important victory over fellow top eight side PowerFailure who didn't measure up to the premiership favourites. The Loose Husseys consolidated their rank with a key win over Failed Creation who are now starting to look over their shoulders nervously as they watch the progress of Brendamage, iSwitCh and Leisa's Lovelies. The lovelies didn't win this week but showed they can cause plenty of trouble as they fell a mere five points short of providing yet another upset as the Hooligans hung on to win.

Sturt B's recent run of form continued with a win that puts the kibosh on thekickingkangaroo and Play4RedTins, Evil Penguins and Izshi 18 all collected wins in a season that hasn't had enough of them. Mustangs put in an improved performance over the weekend against iSwiTch and this was enough for Strawb to get off the bottom as the Eagles got smashed by the Tinnies.

Tough on the little 8 year old Kickingkangaroo.
Posted the second highest score of this division only to lose to the 1 team scoring higher (Equal highest anyway).

The top four have made a break for it after twelve rounds as they are now eight points clear of the pack. Sturt B and PowerFailure fell off the pace after suffering defeats with Sturt B in particular coming a cropper in a match that they probably should have won. The PowerFailure were beaten by the Raging Hooligans which is fair enough but Sturt B's winning run came to an abrupt end against Leisas Lovelies who are outside of the top eight even after this week's win.

Other teams who were outside of the eight last week who got up included Brendamage who are now back in the top eight and Izshi 18 and thekickingkangaroo. So with the top four looking pretty settled the last five rounds will be the time when eight sides play off for the last remaining four places in the Divvy VI finals.

At the foot of the ladder the MightyEags had their first win of the season as they rounded up the Cows which means that Mustangs are stone motherless and without a win so far this season. Strawb has had many seasons at the bottom of the Hogg and it's looking like 2014 can be added to his wall of shame.

After actually looking at my team for the first time in about 4 weeks on Saturday, i figured some changes need to be made as I still had D.GLass and J Brown in my team

[Failed Creation]

I went down by five ******* points to Raging Hooligans... well played.

[woodublieve12]

first time ever i've cracked 2500... Pretty happy with that...

In a high scoring week of SuperCoach not too many in this league went along for the ride with only the Topes racking up a big one with a Divvy VI record of 2513. The Evil penguins were the unlucky team to cop the massive percentage hit. Other sides have bigger immediate problems with Brendamage and Failed Creation falling out of the top eight after they both copped defeats on the weekend.

Failed Creation in particular can feel hard done by as 2198 would normally be enough to get you the win in this division but they were no match for the Raging Hooligans who are going from strength to strength at the moment. Brendmage also scored a reasonable score for this league but not enough to trouble another top four side in Loose Husseys who did the business.

The top four sides in this league appear to be locks to go up to Division V next season as teams such as PowerFailure and Failed Creation have gone off the boil a bit. Sturt B and iSwiTch appear to lack the conistency so perhaps the main threat could be thekickingkangaroo who has hopped into the top eight this week. They have a pretty good side in place and could do some damage if one or two tweaks are made to the roo's outfit.

This league is probably a twelve horse race at the moment although Leisas Lovelies are starting to struggle after copping an upset loss at the hands of Play4RedTins who got a good score for once. Once again, Strawb's Mustangs are holding up the rest and they look a good thing for the spoon with Thiele and Eags close challengers for the honour.

After last week's big scoring in SuperCoach land the injury to the little champ Gazza lowered the boom on many coaches. It didn't seem to affect the big four who all managed to win again to increase the gap to a massive 12 points between fourth and fifth. Double chance settled. It will be very hard for any side outside of the big four to gain promotion into Division V you would think.

With Gazza out teams that did not have him in their lineup prospered such as Leisas Lovelies who got back on the winning list with a massive percentage booster over the Thiele Cows. Failed Creation overturned some indifferent recent form to defeat Sturt B team who looked a top four chance a couple of weeks over but that window of opportunity has now passed. Fellow mid-table challengers Brendamage and IswiTch suffered losses to top four opposition allowing the Lovelies to make some gains. The Lovelies are perhaps some chance of sneaking into the eight.

The big news in struggle street was Strawb's big victory in the annual grudge match against MightyEags but the Mustangs' 178 point victory wasn't enough to lift the stangs off the bottom of the ladder.

Three weeks to go till finals but promotion looks settled. Over to you, mid table teams.

There was a change at the top and at the bottom of Division VI as a result of the weekend's SC matches. RustyCage has been top of the ladder since Round 3 but Isotopes have claimed the leadership of the comp back as the Cage was shut by the Loose Husseys in an 11 point thriller. The topes did it somewhat easier as they breezed by iSwiTch by over 400 points. The Raging Hooligans won by even more over Brendamage who along with iSwiTch are now going to find it hard to make the finals.

This is good news for thekickingkangaroo and Failed Creation as they both had comfortable wins over struggling teams. Both sides aren't home yet though as Leisas Lovelies unleashed a Lovelies season high to smash Andy out of the ballpark to remain a strong finals contender. Wins to Sturt B and PowerFailure means that both are now likely finalists.

Meanwhile, at the foot of the ladder the Mustangs improved their percentage by enough to climb off the bottom as they went down to the St Brays Saints while the Eags were flogged by the ruthless Joeys. Two weeks go to until finals with ten teams remaining in the hunt.

The 16th found has finally come to and end (hate these split rounds!) and when the dust has settled there are nine teams still left in the Division VI premiership race. Isotopes lost top spot on the ladder after they were upstaged by RustyCage who have proven they are a legitimate premiership contender with a solid win over the former league leaders.

The rest of the top eight got the job done with the exception of Sturt B Team who were defeated by Brendamage who can't make the eight as other results this round went against them. Leisas Lovelies are the only side outside of the top eight to be still in contention after they racked up a massive percentage booster over Mighty Eags who scored one of the lowest scores of the year while the Lovelies cracked 2000. The Lovelies have it all to play for next week as they will play off in a spot for the finals against thekickingkangaroo. Failed Creation and Sturt B both have winnable matches in the last round and they should both get the job done.

The top four still look like the teams that are promotion candidates as there is a fair gap between them and the rest. Mighty Eags appears to have locked up the spoon this year. Footychick's first season has seen them collect five wins and they should make it six against Thiele in the last round but Thiele should be safe from spoon calculations due to their superior percentage.

The final places in the top eight were decided with Leisa's Lovelies defeating thekickingkangaroo to take their top eight spot in the last round of the season. Sturt B Team defended their top eight place when they defeated iSwitCh so it's the end of the road for young Pierson in his first Hogg season.

Joker's view from the top lasted just the one week after they suffered a close loss to Rusty Cage who took their spot. These two sides will meet again next week with the winner earning automatic promotion to Division V next season in what should be a cracker. Isotopes and Loose Husseys have proven themselves to be far too good for this league and they will meet in the other Qualifying Final with again the prize being automatic promotion.

Power Failure will go up against Mrs REB in the Elimination Final next week and even though the Missus doesn't check her team all that often the Lovelies could prove to be too strong for the Power next week. The other knockout final is between Hogg newbie Failed Creation and Division V regular Sturt B who will be keen to win as well.

Should be a top finals series but the top four are the sides I'd be tipping to earn promotion.

My inaugural season is over. Well done to Sturt B Team for knocking me out.

I can say without a doubt that I've thoroughly enjoyed the ride, and I am already counting down the days until season 2015 gets under way.

Thanks to all involved, and for those still in the hunt for glory, good luck!

Thanks to all involved, and for those still in the hunt for glory, good luck!

Nice work to make the finals in your debut season mate.

Hopefully you have learned a bit about this captivating game and can challenge for promotion next season!

I'm the coach of the Sturt B Team and thank you for your words and I'm glad you enjoyed your debut season in SuperCoach. We will probably both be in the same div in 2015 so you can get revenge ! Cheers !
