This is it, last game of the season. Bragging rights up for grabs and if my memory serves me right, last season Zeta took it with 9-7 (i'll have to check). In Zeta, things are sewn up with seeds 3-5 the only place in doubt. Alpha seems more fluid with 2-3 and 6-10 still undecided (someone smarter than me can illustrate the permutations). Looking at my scorecard there's 9 games that will be competitive and/or have some connection to the play off races. Good luck and I know it's been a long hard season but it's been good battling against you.
Future Llamas of America (A1) at Lexington Armada (Z16)
Alpha top dog gets a free pass playing Zeta's relegation destination, win by 100+.
Phoenix Eagles (A15) at Dharma Initiative (Z12)
Dharma gets to put the nail into the new comers relegation coffin. Dharma wins by 30+
Berlin Devine Right (A12) at Fiji Flying Foxes (Z2)
Luckily these Foxes can fly as they land in Germany and administer a butt whooping of epic proportions. Rodents by 30+
Newcastle Mountain Lions (Z4) at Wellington Assasins (A16)
Lions get a free dinner of Beef Wellington on their way to the post season. Newcastle by 70+
Rancherito Mantas (Z15) at South Sydney Rabid Rabbitohs (A9)
Rabid Rabbits get to munch on a free lunch to help their playoff hopes, win by 50+
Saipan Storm (A8) at Wollongong Shaved Pussycats (Z13)
Unlucky Po sails into a Storm and gets his pussies all wet. Saipan win by 30+
Nottingham Hoods (A5) at Perth Pirates (Z9)
The Pirates are riding a 2 game losing streak and have been locked out of the playoffs. I don't know if that'll make them mean and surly or looking for a tavern to get drunk on rum. Hoods need to be careful because the Pirates are tough either way.
Hoods mug the Pirates win by 17
----------------------------Games of Interest----------------------------------------
Guadalcanal Gunners (Z1) at German Wilddogs (A3)
The Dogs need to beat the Gunners and in a convincing manner (56+ however many the Knights score points) to move up the Alpha scale. The Knights play a decent Zeta team so there's the outside chance a loss by Knights and a win by the Dogs move them up naturally but in my humble opinion- It isn't ever going to happen. Gunners are going to gun down those Germans like wild dogs in the street. Chewy Bacca (DE) isn't going to be enough to stop the Gunners resident pill popping TD machine, Hugh Laurie (QB).
Gunners gun them down, win by 17
Redcliffe Sharks (Z8) at Sandersville WarChickens (A6)
The Sharks have the #1 rusher in the conference and he's just getting warmed up. The Chickens have a decent LB trio that'll try to slow him down. Spocker Rocker (WR) should be able to find holes in the Sharks D and open this game up to the point that Forest Run becomes ineffective.
Sharks fight for some respect, win by 6
Hawthorne Headhunters (A10) at Rockhampton Raiders (Z10)
The Headhunters are on a mission to crash the post season party and collect some heads. They have to win this game for that to even be a possibility and the Raiders are firmly in their path. Raiders need to ride the arm of Jerry Dorsey until it falls off.
Raiders fight but eventually lose their heads, lose the game too by 21
Solomon Island Pack (A13) at Tasmanian Swarm (Z5)
All the Swarm have to do is get through this game and see the results from the Lions and Devils game to find out how they're seeded. Pack just have to lay down and play dead.
Tasmania by 24
Brisbane Troyfins (Z7) at Sacred Haven Knights (A2)
Troyfins move down one spot with a loss, Sacred Haven keeps it's #2 spot with a win (and staying ahead in points above the Wilddogs). This game is more important for the Troyfins, to see how they stack up against higher tiered competition.
Knights slay the Fins by 14
Jamaican Souljahs (A11) at Hamilton Falcons (Z11)
In the battle of 11's, the Souljahs have the edge.
Souljah's smoke out the Falcons by 24
Budapest Brawlers (Z14) at Redcliff Razamanaz (A14)
In the battle of 14's, the Razamanaz sucker punch the Brawlers.
Brawlers go down hard, lose by 30+
Alice Springs Rock Wallabies (Z6) at Lincoln Breeze (A7)
As snake bitten as the Wallabies have been this season, this game is not going to be a breeze. Breeze don't stand out in any category but with the Wallabies coming to town, they should have the game of their lives. Ao needs to stop throwing to the other colored jerseys and the whole team needs to get on the same page.
Breeze blow over Wallabies, knock them down by 10.
Devonport Devils (Z3) at Sunshine Coast Condors (A4)
Devils need this win to stay in the top 4 of Zeta but the Condors might have something to say about it. Should be a good game between two evenly matched teams.
Devils need to squeeze everything they can out of Sharpe Armstrong and his receivers.
Devils squeek in with a win by 9
Can Alpha take the crown from Zeta?
Future Llamas of America (A1) at Lexington Armada (Z16)
