Let's just get on to the chaos. I keep waiting for the wheels to fall off on my picks, but it just keeps rolling.
Auckland Flames vs. Darwin Mud Crabs
Darwin squeeks by in a close one 117-7.
Vanuatu Gunslingers vs. Vero Renegades
Anti-hex no pick.
Samoa Piranha Monkeys vs. Newcastle Surfers
This is a good matchup, Newcastle is a team of high highs and low lows. One of those teams that could raise up and beat a better squad but not this week. The P-Monks get another one here 48-21
Easter Island Moai vs. Heard Island Refugees
Huge game to help seed the playoffs. I like Easter Island to stay undefeated here, but I think Heard Island could make it interesting. Moai 56 - Refugees 30.
Gold Coast Titans vs. Ohio Valley Ironmen
How has Gold Coast drawn this schedule? They're going to cruise late this season, but this is the last of their gauntlet and OVI is just too much. OVI 63 - Coast 21.
Sydney Sea Dragons vs. South Australian Serial Killers
I don't know if the sim can handle this one. Some server may catch on fire. Over/under on passing TDs is 24. I took the over. 255-0.
Palau Pimp Smackers vs. Manilla Gorillaz
Gorillaz get the Pimp hand 77 - 7.
Alice Springs Fire vs. The Throwback Cowboy's
I just can't figure out the Cowboys at all - Fire takes care of business 56-24.
Tasmania Devils vs. Papua New Guinea Macaque and Balls
HUGE game for seeding - may decide on a home game ($$$) and and an away game to start the playoffs. Tasmania wins a slugfest 27-24.
Redscape Diplomats vs. Coney Island Warriors
Diplomats take it 34-21.
Outback Astronauts vs. Mauna Kea Chenabogs
Mauna Kea gets the win 51-31.
Tasmania Sand Gnats vs. Solomon Islands Alchemy
The Sand Gnats are the Cowboys of Zeta, I just can't figure them out at all. Alchemy turns the Gatorade to gold and wins 49-27.
Krakatoa Kings vs. Dunedin Wolverines
Must win game for two teams who are better than their record shows. dunedin is 9 points away from what they should be (a 1 loss team), so give me the Wolverines 42-30 but I think this is a coin flip and wouldn't be surprised by a close win by either team, or a blowout by either. Very tough to call.
New Jersey Justice vs. Hueco Mundo Hollows
BOOOOOOMMMMMM. Huge game and I think both are capable of the win. Call it a gut feeling but I think the Justice will be just a little better than Devils or Saints were and finally get the Hollows -- but science is going to lead the way -- Hollows 27-24.
Way to tough to call. Good luck to both.
Cimmerian Barbarians vs. Uluru Rockies
Catch the train to relegation station. Conan 51 - Rockies 7
Boondock Saints vs. Atlantis Armageddon
Huge playoff implications here ... ... Saints keep finding a way to win. 51-21.
