The byes are finally over! Time to get on with the real stuff again 8)
Fixture:
(https://i.gyazo.com/3e17cfd7bffdd2bc6f3ecf8961a4741b.png)
Remember, home teams are on the left side, as noted below:
Hawks vs Rams: This one looms as a danger game for the Hawks. A win gives them a real good shot at breaking into the top 8, but a loss will make things very very hard indeed. After two consecutive losses, they need to turn their form around, and now is the time to do so. They are still missing Lids and Bennell though, and don't look like regaining either of them any time soon. The Rams on the other hand could see themselves in a bit of trouble this week. Yes, their guns such as Beams, Treloar, and Heppell are firing, as are Houli and Goldy. But after that...there isn't much else. The fact is that their 2nd and 3rd tier players just haven't done enough to support their spine, and with the Hawks hosting this one, I can't see the Rams getting close enough to cause an upset.
Werewolves vs Dragons: Cannot wait for this one. 4th hosting 2nd, what's not to love? This could very well be the game that decides 2nd spot this season, and it should be a doozy. Both teams have been in red hot form lately, it's hard to split them. Dayne ZZZZZZZZORKOOOOOOOOOOOO has been massive for the Werewolves the last month or so, and being given the captaincy this week, coach Rusty will be hoping for another huge score. However, they come up against a midfield that includes Rockliff, Merrett, Duncan, Hall, Ebert, TMitchell...it's not an easy task. The Dragons firepower in the midfield is probably the best in the competition, but it can sometimes be around the ground where they are let down somewhat. It's a hard one to tip...but I'll back in the home side. Werewolves in a close one!
Steins vs Breakers: After a promising start to the year, the Steins have fallen away a bit, but have still been showing signs of being a potential threat at the end of the year. They will be hoping to get back Gawn and Hogan either this week or very soon, and that will be a huge boost to their lineup. The Breakers are probably looking at their last chance at finals. A loss this week puts them 2 games out of the 8, along with percentage, and will have only 4 games to make up for it. Steins for me.
Hurricanes vs Leeches: Another top of the table clash for this round! 1st takes on 3rd, and this one should be just as good as the Werewolves/Dragons match, if not better. The Hurricanes still remain undefeated, one game clear of the Dragons, and you'd have to say that a win this week will all but guarantee them a home final. The Leeches have put out some massive scores this week, and on their day can take down anyone. What has really impressed though is their consistency as well, which we haven't seen in previous years. However, it's just too hard for me to tip against the Hurricanes at home, but I'm sure many will be cheering on the Leeches!
Owls vs Knights: The Owls have been fairly disappointing this year after becoming premiers last year, but they still haven't been too bad, which I guess is a sign of how good they can really be. Injuries and form have taken their toll though, with Christensen out for the year, Spitter not able to crack into the side on a consistent basis, JOM out for what seems like the rest of the year, Jong doing his ACL, and Robbo out for the year. The fact of the matter is that their depth has not been able to step up to properly fill in these vacancies, and it's hurting them. The Knights have shown glimpses here and there, especially over the last 4-6 weeks, and now sit out of the 8 by percentage. A win this week would be huge for them, and would keep them in touch with the others, but a loss would make it very difficult from here. With the form Gibbs and Docherty are in though, I'll have to go with the Owls.
Giants vs Bunnies: The Giants have moved up to 3 wins now, and sit just the 1 game out of the 8! And this game is another very winnable one, up against the Bunnies who sit in 7th place so far this season. However, they have a horror draw to end their year, coming up against all of the current top 4 teams in their last 4 games! So a win this week would be awesome for the Giants. The Bunnies have all winnable games to finish the year and could easily make a late push for the top 4 if things fall their way, and with the scoring power that they've shown earlier this season...it isn't out of the question. A loss this week though will see an army of teams catching up to them on 5 wins, and with the Giants hosting this one...I think that is exactly what will happen. Giants in an absolute nailbiter!
Hedgies vs Badgers: The Hedgies are yet another team that sits out of the 8 on just percentage, and up against the 15th placed Badgers, they'll be looking to lock in a win this week and stay in the hunt for finals. Dusty and Neale have been huge for them all year, Montagna has help up the backline, and the Greene and Watts combo has been working a treat up forward. They have also had a lot of depth players step up at times throughout the year, such as ANB and Mullett. The Badgers on the other hand are sitting on just the 2 wins, which came in rounds 2 and 3 respectively, and included a close loss to a rampaging Dragons outfit in round 1. Since then though, it has just all gone downhill. The forwards, backs, and ruck have all held their own, but it's the midfield that has let them down. Shuey and Cotchin can only do so much. Prestia has been well down on form, Libba has been in and out of the side, Redden the same, Rischitelli yet to return from injury, Mathieson has only just returned, and Barlow has now just broken his leg. Whilst their last 5 games are all winnable, it's hard to see them getting any wins unless the rest of the midfield steps up, and does so from this week. Hedgies should be too strong at home though.
Hoods vs Magic: This has not been a season to remember for the Hoods, but there have been some silver linings, as they have been able to play their youth, with Taranto in particular being quite impressive for them. They have only the one win for the season, and sit last on the ladder. The Magic on the other hand see themselves in 5th position (this is what I was talking about last year before they disappointed me completely). Sloane has had a massive year, and the rest of the midfield has done their part as well. Daniher and Cameron have taken that next step to join Buddy as top forwards of the BXVs competition, and the return of Paparone has added a bit of extra stability to the final spot in their defence. A win this week would make it almost impossible for them to drop out of the 8, so surely they don't let this one slip...right?

Roughead easily outscored McEvoy last week. I would've done the same setup ;)

Hahah yeah, ofc i would of rusty, McEvoy has been sub par this year ;) Turned out to be a pretty damn good move, but pretty ballsy i thought :P
Birchall returning from LTI last time he did that he got injured again so wasnt confident naming him

Yeah, only Hawks and Crows players were locked out before last night
Everything should be up to date in UF now
Also a note: The Giants have Murdoch on field not currently selected with Greenwood (from Thursday night) as emergency. Murdoch didn't make the cut on Friday night, and I wouldn't consider this as loopholing as Greenwood would be the next best replacement for Murdoch if he wasn't already locked in as emergency anyway.
If Murdoch had been cut before Greenwood played or if there were players available that would generally be considered as more likely starters over Greenwood, then things may have been different. But just thought I'd mention this in case anyone was wondering :)

Haha yeah, pretty much locked in for an end of first round priority pick now in BXVs. I like my team to be competitive though, so the fact that I'll probably have like two mids next week isn't great.
Might be okay still in Worlds, got a bit of depth this season but our hardest run of games is the next 4 weeks so the timing is terrible.
Not far behind you Nige in bad weeks. Breakers fall from grace this year,

Hanley and JJK would be the only best XV players injured though right?
My main point though is that you have slid from 8th (12th on total points) to 13th (13th total points as well), so you have pretty much stayed the same in terms of scoring
On the other hand, I have slid from 4th (5th on points), to 15th (10th on points), so I am the only one that gets to complain about a fall from grace :P

My team makes things difficult for me.
Final score adjustments:
Rams:
-24 as Beams didn't play more than 20% TOG (this didn't get removed by UF originally as Nige has no mids lel)
+188 with Treloar now becoming C
+69 with Ben Brown coming in as an OOP mid
+55 with Alex Fasolo coming in as an OOP mid
Hawks: +67 HGA
Werewolves: +57 HGA (Zorko :'()
Steins: +87 HGA
Hurricanes:
-46, as Pittard will come on to the field over GHS, with Dumont moving into the mids
+75 HGA
Owls:
+66 Lloyd OOP ruck to replace Sandi
+20 HGA
Giants: +44 HGA
Hedgies:
-51 Sexton comes on instead of Bruce, with Sinclair going into the forward line to replace Watts
+56 HGA
Hoods:
+98 Walters OOP ruck
+52 HGA
That should cover everything^ :)
Final match results:

Not really any close games this week, which was kinda odd. Hurricanes get their first loss of the season though, which sees them drop from the top of the ladder, with the Dragons replacing them!
And now for the ladder!
(https://i.gyazo.com/1e469ae0d9e3526013d2d607108f3a4e.png)
Down to 11 teams to fight out for a finals spot now one would think. A few teams could be very unlucky to miss out though. Going to be an interesting last month! :D
Draaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagons
Sure. Thing.
Fully expect to go undefeated from here on in.
