By the looks of it, we're going to be seeded 30. Which means we'll be away to the 3rd seed. Possibly Turkey. I would think even after a moderate season we're one of the teams that the top seeds would prefer to avoid.

I got Turkey being 3rd right. I seem to have missed Latvia's result which was also in our favour, and we moved above them to end 29th. So we have a trip to the Netherlands. Hopefully it won't be in Amsterdam and we can keep the younger guys out of trouble.

So we have a trip to the Netherlands.

You'd imagine to travel to a team who finished 8-0 and have a larger number of users than us that'd it'd be a near on impossible task but I like our chances here and if we can get all of our key players with good GS then it'll be a thoroughly entertaining game.

However, this is a near on impossible task.

Two seasons ago we were the 8-0 team and I remember the worry about what the lower seeded team would do. Home advantage is of course massive, and I'd rather be in their position, but I think its safe to say Holland aren't going to be entirely happy with their draw. In many ways I'll probably have easier decisions to make than I had two seasons ago, simply because I think I have fewer options.

Totally agree with this and we're a better team than where we are placed. I really look forward to seeing your tactics and the game itself.

Good luck Gully and the team.

Hopefully Holland get on a bit too much of the local greenery before we play them.

Well, its not like you want a drop in game shape at this time of the season so no apology necessary really. I appreciate it though.

Very hard choice to make, here's hoping it doesn't affect them too much for the NT - I'm hoping my boys are in the zone - it's so hard to tell sometimes.

yup, next week I'll find out how good Osman is, cos he'll be putting the rest of the front court on his back and carrying them through the games against SoV and the Tide of Fire boys.

Actually, Osman for England!
