Let's have a collective update of the biggest results of the last two game days, and pretend to find what little drama there is to be found.
The results themselves were not that surprising. Perhaps the most interesting development is the emergence of X Dominate X as the second force in the S62 Great 8. When they barely made the playoffs last season with a relegation level roster and a 7-15 I took note that our division had kept afloat a team that could splurge at any moment. We're beginning to see that now. Interestingly their team and mine, which is just 1 game ahead, have the same home-away schedule in the interconfertnce round (but at different stages). Doctors of WI continues to flirt with bot danger, but picks up a win tonight
Mission #1 for my team tonight was to stop Bonilla from going off. I will take that we held him down to 21 points after performances with 52 and 37.
In the Big 8, we continue to have reasonable clarity and a fairly stable outlook with Yuck as the class of the league averaging +30 PD/Game in the first act of the season; JCW trailing (after a big effort to win away at Scrap Heap on Tuesday), then Ash, then Scrap Heap, with Crows pulling the plug on the season and focusing on growth.
In the fight to avoid the auto-relegation slot, Blacksheep picks up their first win of the season condemning Miami to a 0-7 first round. The bottom of the big 8 is less tiered, with two 1-6 teams and two 2-5 teams.
