Matt Short's effort against NSW catapults Tassie almost into the lead post Round 2

So heading into Round 3 (I'm aware it's almost finished) it basically becomes 5 teams battling for 4 spots in the finals. The Possums are an outside chance with all their DGW players but are coming from a long way back. Can write off SA and NSW for certain.

Koalas and Swans backing up last season's strong OD Cup performance again, NT and ACT showing that they are the teams to beat across all formats, and the Devils making a rise to the top thanks to their strong All Rounders.

So some kinda crappy news for ACT here. And it's kinda where this poaching rule doesn't work well. Evan Gulbis wasn't part of the initial 15 man squad they named, and as thus hasn't been on Jay's radar to be named. He plays game 1 of Victoria's DGW and if he plays tomorrow he falls under the 'poachable' section...

Might put this one to a poll will send you all a PM on it later. Do discuss below your thoughts. Rules are rules and if the majority wanna go tough luck then that's what will happen

With one game to go:
Round 3
SA Wombats   318
NSW Platypuses   179
V Possums   256
NT Kangaroos   266
ACT Cockatoos   180
WA Swans   443
Q Koalas   393
T Devils   450

Total   
SA Wombats   802
NSW Platypuses   829
V Possums   898
NT Kangaroos   1181
ACT Cockatoos   1287
WA Swans   1349
Q Koalas   1512
T Devils   1567


Top 4 looks home, but with the Vics playing CXI, who knows what will happen. The Kangaroos have Quiney, Maxwell (C) and maybe Ahmed to come. The Possums have Stoinis (C), Christian, Handscomb, and Beer.  WA are finished and ACT have Marcus Harris (C) and Jon Holland to try and hold off the charging two.

Could ACT or WA find themselves dropping out of the 4?!

We were so close.  :(

I think we're out, pity really because we would've been really strong with DGWs in the Semis!

If Marcus Harris fails and Holland doesn't bat you'll finish above ACT so it'll be up to NT AND Vics to pass you to kick you out.

Possums will rue the selection table mistakes, so many big scores left on the bench throughout the 3 rounds.
