Season 28 Discussion

Super keen! Thanks! All friendlied up now.

@chewy:

What rugby teams do you support in real life? Every team playing against Australia and England.

So who did you support over the weekend then?

He was hoping for a 0-0 draw?

Exactly

Glad I read the new feature announcements - didn't click that it was playoffs next week.

Checked both clubs and both are locked into 2nd place with no chance of dropping to 3rd, nor can they realistically grow to 1st without killing their energy so have the luxury of resting back before the playoffs

Last game of League today, enough points clear of second to rest, but hello - Ranfurly Shield on the line.

It's going to be a big test for the second stringers today, Nands hasn't logged in for nearly a week, but still his default normal will take a while to breakdown. Hoping he hasn't already set to LTNT. Then I'm F**KED.

So good luck all, the only game where I see anything changes standings is the Sparker v Monkey Nuts. Nuts have nothing to lose.


Also nice run so far in the Cup Bren and Crew.

Yep pecking order at stake here....a sparker slip up could see me snatch a home semi, but first I have to get past wuhc....just need to stop wuhc getting all 5 points to keep 3rd...I'm gonna gamble with a wnwim seeing as sparker are playing their full line-up and are likely to win anyway?

Will be just my luck sparker lose and wuhc defeat my wnwim

Looks like sparker are looking the goods for a win...let's hope at least I keep it close with wuhc...

40 all draw. Wouldn't read about it

Hey fellas will be organising the monday friendly tournament this coming week but I don't play monday friendlies, is the IGT based on your own team or the opponents? and would everyone want competitive matches or just random opponents?

My understanding is that IGT during Monday Friendlies is only affected by the player's skill levels, regardless of the opposition.

I have looked for this in the documentation but I could not find it. However I am sure I read it somewhere.

Tryasta is correct.

"Note: In Monday friendly matches, both sides will receive IGT based only on their own skills - unaffected by opposition strength"

Competitive matches if possible.

Cool cheers fellas, will get this up and running this week!

Playoffs night!

Someone must stop the L1 dominance of Sparker and Melville RFC!

For the last 4 seasons….

Season 27 Winner: Sparker, Runner Up Melville RFC Third: Hercufleas United
Season 26 Winner: Melville Runner Up Sparker Third Excelsior PNC
Season 25 Winner: Sparker Runner Up Melville Third Hercufleas
Season 24 Winner: Sparker Runner-up Melville Third Millenium Falcons

You sound like the perfect man for the job.

Don't 3rd and 4th generally take the cowards way out and go for the cash in the 3rd place playoff?

we are all at perfect energy, not much difference in CSRs....i will shoot anyone who takes the cowards way out

Hoping for some good semi final results tonight from all of my three teams.

All have gone 14-0 in the league so hoping to turn that dominance into gold trophies.

Good luck everyone!

Both of my teams are sitting 2nd on their tables so bit of an up-hill battle but hoping I can cross the line

Obviously heaps of big games tonight with club semi's, as well as round of 16 for U20 WC so good luck to all!

After promoting back to Div 3 this season my Cobras have qualified 2nd for semi's , and have a huge match against a  team of very similar strength. Here's hoping HGA can get me across the line.

But more importantly hoping the Russian U20's can get get across the line against the Canucks! All the best for you as well Bren with you're match against France. It's not really fair for you guys to play such a strong opponent after dominating you're pool. If Argentina had narrow loss instead of narrow win in one of there first two games, NZ's road to the cup would be a lot easier.

Sounds like "Talk is cheap. Supply exceeds Demand."
The Economists won't win the final.

@Activist: If you are to win only one game in the playoffs, is it not better ($$$) to win the SF than the 3rd/4rth? Moreover, if the top two dogs are storing some fireworks for the final, the semifinal is the perfect stage to catch them with the pants down.

oops
