CUP - ROUND 3

jprender · 04-11-2009 04:43PM #1

Should be a handy game for me tonight, playing a 1-click team.

Going to play WNWIM although this is exactly the same situation that saw me exit the cup last year !! I lost to a crap team playing WNWIM.

I know this team plays normal so I am hoping it will be enough. Also, got a must win league game this weekend so could do without any injuries of note !

how is everyone else fixed ?

Eireannach · 04-11-2009 04:45PM

Exact same situation. Opponent is a 1-click player, going to play WNWIM. Good luck

I'm screwed div I side! They are recently promoted via playoffs so I am LTNT'ing them an you never know!

Playing league leaders this weekend but going to roll over (sorry Orizo!) I have picked which teams to have a crack at, only changing plan if the other team is performing poorly.

so very slim chance of progressing in cup unfortunately!

I'm up against another Div. III team. I have a better team in terms of csr although not by too much. I'm playing normal so should win unless I get LTNT'd.

You'll get LTNT'd

Cup games are more important than league games at the moment !

:cool:

dave13 · 04-11-2009 05:35PM

Playing a Div.III team as well. Seem pretty evenly matched so gonna LTNT it as would like to stay in the cup.

JohnButler · 04-11-2009 06:29PM

Im up against a div2 team so im screwd. No hope of winning so gonna wnwim it.

Shame, i would have liked a cup run.

dreamer_ire · 04-11-2009 07:22PM

I should go through tonight too, up against a newly promoted Div III team who last logged on at the start of September. Not gonna chance WNWIM though and am playing Normal.

BTW what's a 1-click team?

madness - BO rules!

johnnysmack · 04-11-2009 09:21PM

playing a boardies called siltirocker but dont think ive seen him post on this forum. he's div 4 so im WNWIM it but at halftime there only 4 points in it so its too close for comfort at minute.

eoferrall · 04-11-2009 09:40PM

TNT'd it... took an early lead nice try. held it for 11 mins and not out of my 22 since...:(

36-7 currently... the teams CSR is WAY higher but was hoping that they'd NWIM me...but doubt it!

tHE vAGGABOND · 04-11-2009 09:47PM

I had a very winnable tie against another Div V team, but I have a huge league game on Saturday, so I have rested 5 or 6 of my key players and thus Im 15 points down.

Ah well

daveharnett · 04-11-2009 09:56PM

Drew another bot team, so 54-5 up with the development team wnwim.

BTW jprender, your analysis of Div 3.3 looks spot on to me. Great work.

I did, unless a miracle happens in the last few minutes I'm out of the cup

Yep 3-10 and out of the cup

crisco10 · 04-11-2009 10:11PM

7-7 with 5 minutes to go. Just missed a penalty from in front of the posts. WAs losing at halftime so need to score....:o

Unlucky mar-z, they seemed to have a very tight defense.

I was hoping you would win, so the cup games would tire out your players!;)

Currently beating a Div IV team 44-12 but my most important player got injured.

dreamer_ire · 04-11-2009 10:29PM

PHEW!!!! Got through 21-14 with my last try scored on 78 mins.

Saw this for the first time " [URL="javascript:playerClick(3431380);"]O'Garvey[/URL] is still looking a bit woozy as he gives way to [URL="javascript:playerClick(3431390);"]Coveney[/URL]. This might be a concussion that will keep him out for a while. In fact... Oh Lord, he's gone down the tunnel and into the wrong dressing-room!" :eek:

Oisinjm · 04-11-2009 10:32PM

Lost as expected. I WNWIM'd them cause I knew I didnt have a chance

might aswell get some ingame training off them

Eireannach · 04-11-2009 10:33PM

Won easily, hoping for a good draw next week.

jprender · 04-11-2009 10:37PM

Won the game 40-0 playing WNWIM, and the real bonus is no injuries !!

johnnysmack · 04-11-2009 11:23PM

pulled away in second half to win 19-33 WNWIM. good days work done.

Frankiestylee · 04-11-2009 11:49PM

Phew! Haven't gone over the match yet but just beat a Div IV team 17-0. I was playing on normal, so glad I didn't bump the intensity up or down.

Pretty spot on alright, though you spent more time talking about me than my team. Hopefully my opponents will now start trying to weaken me with some free sauce. :pac:

eoferrall · 05-11-2009 12:52AM

Got spanked 57 -7

no repeat of last seasons cup run for me..out 3 rounds earlier:( going to miss that income.

but happy enough with how team performed in relation though had some good passaged of play but their defense was too good to crack.

Well onwards and upwards... well done to the rest of you, I am now going for the boards cup (need some silverware!):p

Frankiestylee · 05-11-2009 12:54AM

Well, I'm rather happy... I have a Div V bot in the next round, and after a quick review of the match I'm a bit happier with my lads' performance. Quite a few tries the aul vid ref "he say no".

jprender · 05-11-2009 10:10AM

It looks like most if not all the boards.ie teams have got very good draws in round 4, should be a lot of us in round 5

Yeah looks like I'm concentrating on the league from now on. So with the same gesture here's to an amazing cup run for Stab County!

mar-z · 05-11-2009 10:42AM

Damn that loss put a fairly big hit to my rankings and I dropped a couple of places ranking-wise in my league.

Although, the way it is now is more realistic, unfortunately I'm not the 3rd best team in the league like the rankings said before.

dave13 · 05-11-2009 10:58AM

scrapped a win away to a div.III team, played LTNT and won 21-17. Only difference was I converted my 3 trys and they only converted one. Looks like I have a div.IV one click team next up so at least my team can get some rest next week.

Orizio · 06-11-2009 12:42AM

I'm sure this will shock absolutely no one...but I won. Again. :cool:

Rub it in that some of us got crappy draws this time round!:p - like there were bot teams in the last round...surely they can be got rid of after round one if all bot teams play a human player...or at least round 2...
