Fewcifer, Curly Sue dropping down the rankings again i see!

Not dropping in the ratings, only the rankings... that's the damn problem! Can't wait til I can actually play in a league against real people and get real improvements in the ratings.

Won today 21-12 against the guy in 3rd. Went ' Normal' intenstiy and changed around positions a lil' bit. Sorta worked i guess, in the way he went LTNT, i did'nt and still won.

All comes down to next weeks final game. Although, in reality, theres not much to play for as chances are we'll both meet in the playoff final anyway, so i'ma just take it easy again next week to conserve energy etc..

What league are you boys in? Trying to target a league to be promoted into... not hugely mad about going up against a load of randomers, so trying to get into a good ol' boardstastic league.

Well, I'm sure you know by now to avoid III.3!

I was tempted to go for it just to try and wreak some havok.

3-12 eh? I'm currently heading for 3-8, that's only 4 places I'll need to drop. Might field a bizarro team and see if I can win by less than 70.

Phonehead · 09-05-2010 9:28pm

More than welcome, will be 4 boardies in it then!! that is if myself or Johnny don't promote:cool:

Win big and go for III-5 where our DLR derbies will have real meaning. Would make 3 boardsies in our league assuming neither of the two of us get a miracle promotion

Could an under performing Polk High beat an over performing Rucks? Clearly not as the league showed but I suppose if I played my full team for once, even with playing at less then LTNT, I should be looking at final with Satanta....I think that was a burn!!

Hmm, maybe the rugby gods will decide... or... damn, now I have to decide! Completely cripple my team on WNWIM to drop a few places or full squad on LTNT to snipe off the hoors above me. Bah! Decisions!

Def have a play off spot after today. Not ready for div 2 yet, so i'll be throwing the play off games. Again.

Haha, I see that you figured out that this was not correct

The LTNT and the resultant point you got on Saturday means you have a playoff spot now though !

I can't believe your kicker hit the post in injury time, you would have won the game, and I'd almost certainly be in the playoffs too. Now I need Irunea to not get a 5 point win on the last weekend.

I like the fact that you think you have a choice to "throw" a playoff game against wendylicious :pac::pac:

Come on in to 3.7 frankie.

When wendylicious gets promoted, we are getting a bot down in her place !!

:D Hopefully another team, Irunea, will bugger off back to Spain too which will mean 2 bots in our league.

That results in a season free of (auto) relegation worry !!

Orizio · 10-05-2010 3:59pm

Wouldn't it be funny if Wendylicious decided to take the first place prize money and camp for another year?

Well, funny for those of us not in her league.

jprender · 10-05-2010 4:12pm

Don't even joke about that !!

I expect her to move to Holland anyway so we should still get a bot :P

I may camp for another season to stop you winning for another season...:D

I does be petty like that!

I'll be living it up in Div. 2 in Scotland by that time young fellow!

P.S.: You'd get slaughtered if you got promoted right now.

Main reason I don't want to go up - the step up looks massive! Think at least another season (if not more) of squad development is in order. didnt change squad overly this season, just from academy, focused on facilities and trainers.

Orizio · 10-05-2010 8:05pm

What intensity will you play against 'The Porn Stars' in the semi?

Not sure yet, might go safety first and LTNT them else might normal them. Reckon LTNT is ahead ATM. What about yourself against cork?

Orizio · 10-05-2010 8:46pm

WNWIM, I'd say I'd have plenty for his LTNT...

Nah, I've already set up my team for Saturday... I have 5 props starting. Infact there are no backs in the team at all. Knowing my luck they'll just stomp through the other team and rack up massive points.

Although... if I don't win the match I'm going to be dropped right off the auto-promote table. Here's hoping my big lads can just slowly grind them down. I think I have something like pick n go 50% with nearly no kicking :P

Orizio · 11-05-2010 12:46am

eofarrell, if you could play that chap 'normally' next weekend, I won't complain.

Don't forget that a few 2nd division teams will be transferring to another country. You could get lucky and land in a league with a bot (or two).

Don't be a chicken :cool:

Is there a week break in between the end of the league and the play-offs? And will energy be reset?
