Finals Week Two

IMPORTANT NOTE - PLEASE READ

AFL teams will be announcing their teams at 6:20pm AEST on Thursday (Wednesday for Thursday night games)
Sunday teams are confirmed at 5pm AEST on Friday (Saturday for Monday games)





We WILL NOT be using a partial lockout, please read the rule below.

You are encouraged to name your full team at the start of the round and edit accordingly as teams drop each day. I understand this is not possible for everyone, hence why it would be preferred that people name their full team to begin with.

If you make any edits to your team, please do so in a new 'quote' post.

There is no loopholing allowed in ADT

- With Fri-Sun games back, you can name four (4) emergencies.

- In the event a coach either submits an incomplete team or fails to submit a team at all without contacting the admin, they will receive a warning/strike and their submission from last week will be used. Penalties for this can be found in the rules post (no sacking coaches because we barely have enough as is). It's finals so I hope this doesn't happen





Friday night FULL LOCKOUT at 7.50pm AEST

Finals Week Two

Scorpions Stung in Defeat
Arizona Scorpions (1618) defeated by Los Angeles Kings (1788)


Arizona lowered their colours here, there's no room for a mere 1600 score in the finals area, which was proven by Los Angeles walking away handsome winners. The floor was too low with WHE, McKay, Stringer and Sparrow all dragging the team down, and the usual star power failed to fire once again as Arizona fumble a home prelim final. For Los Angeles, it's a powerful return to early season form and will hopefully be bolstered by the return of Hewett in the coming weeks as they face the winner of our next match at home.


Washington Goes to DEFCON 1
Washington Senators (1969) defeated Springfield Isotopes (1790)


Boy oh boy wowee Washington really went nuclear in this matchup. They'll be ruing the HGA draw last week as it's cost them a home prelim as they would've blown away Arizona, but they continue on in 2022 and make it to the final 4 which is the main thing. Gawn and Luke Ryan dropped 150+ scores on Springfield followed by 6 other 100+ scores as they maintained the rage all weekend and will have to be the favourites going into next week despite playing away from home. For Springfield, nothing could be done. A 1790 is no laughing matter as they were simply beaten by a better side on the day. A 5th place may seem disappointing, but considering their position early on, it could've been worse.

I'm looking forward to these juicy prelim finals next week!
