Why do you say that OnSong. You just beat the top side and appear from the outside to be flying.

Yes, but like I said, the percentage factor means we can't afford to drop many games.


Ok, fair enough. :D
If you don't like it, change it. If you don't want to change it, it can't be that bad!

Would there have ever been a situation in a 7 team comp where teams 1 to 5 have been separated by 1 win so late in a season? Scary close atm

I don't think there would be many competitions in this situation, no.

There will be a few mini-finals over the next few weeks, but with percentage the way it is, Balaklava look to be the most vulnerable.

You would think the Peckers have to beat at a minimum three teams out of United (H), Virginia (A), HWE (A) and Mallala (H).

Really like the billing of this weekend's HB v TW encounter. The Roosters getting some back, the Bombers desperate to recapture the form that helped them take control of the competition for half the season. Mallala could possibly go top after being sixth after round 5.


The top 5 have now all played each other twice with the following results:
Mallala 5-3
Hamley 4-4
Virginia 4-4
Balaklava 4-4
Two Wells 3-5

but looking at the most recent results against each other gives an interesting indication of form:
Mallala 4-0
Balaklava 3-1
Virginia 2-2
Hamley 1-3
Two Wells 0-4

Two Wells last win against a top 5 side was 17th May against Balak and last win against a top 4 side was April 12th against Hamley.

United 1-39
Mallala 40+
Hamley 1-39

Mathematically, United can still make the finals people. Long shot, but never say never.

That is also true. They'd at least need to win their remaining four matches though.

A couple of Virginia boys ventured out to watch Two Wells v Hamley on the weekend and had 'a couple' of froffies and ended up in both the Hamley Bridge and Two Wells change rooms straight after the game. Rumour has it Two Wells weren't overly impressed with the lads and kicked them out. Hamley on the other hand managed to sign them up for season 2015

I may have mentioned earlier this year that Hamley are likely to fold sooner rather than later.
The bombers haven't had a sustainable model for years. It'll be Kilburn all over again when the cash stops.

If you're looking at re-signing current players, I think now isn't a bad time.
