1 more win for Tilburg, Stockholm & Judah will finalise the playoff teams. Given the remaining schedules it looks likely to be heartbreak for Brighton. Two teams missed out on the playoffs from Zeta last season with 9-7 records (including us) so I know how that feels.

The seedings are far from settled as there are a few key match ups in the last two weeks which will have a direct bearing on the final standings/tie breakers.

Dublin & Bushy Park look to be the key teams as Dublin play Dallas & Helsinki while Bushy Park play Judah & Dungannon. The Dublin/Helsinki game looks like being a straight shoot out for the 3rd seed while Bushy Park could realistically finish anywhere from 8th to 5th seed.

My predictions for the seedings are;

#1 Dallas
#2 Dungannon
#3 Helsinki
#4 Dublin
#5 Tilburg
#6 Stockholm
#7 Judah
#8 Bushy Park

Which would give us a first round of;

Dallas v Bushy Park
Dungannon v Judah
Helsinki v Stockholm
Dublin v Tilburg

Its all conjecture of course and no doubt I will be completely wrong!

I'll be pretty gutted if we wind up as the #8 seed, but just looking at who's left to play for the teams below us we need to keep winning to avoid that happening!

Silvertooth, I just cant make my mind up about you guys. Guess I will get a better idea soon though.

Our fate basically rests with the Judah game. If we beat them then I don't think we can fall that far even if we lose to Dungannon. Ultimately we're just taking it one game at a time and see where we are.

I think we've been pretty unlucky this season. Run a couple of the better teams to the wire and come up empty handed, and then failed to turn up on a couple of occasions where we were looking to get Wins.

The last pair of games will definitely give us a better idea of exactly where Bushy Park are this season though, i just hope it's not 8th!

Yeah, the Judah game is the big one for Bushy Park.

With one game to go the current top 8 are guaranteed playoff spots.

Bushy Park need to beat Dungannon if they are to avoid a dramatic drop down the seedings from 5th to 8th unless Tilburg, Stockholm or Judah have an unexpected defeat.

I have a special plan to stop Dungannon. It involves machine guns.

I think you might draw a flag on that!

15 yard penalty - gunning down the passer!

Looks like I did ok with my prediction. I got 3 & 4 wrong but that game was always going to be a coin toss so not so bad.

The first round will be;

Dallas v Bushy Park
Dungannon v Judah
Dublin v Stockholm
Helsinki v Tilburg
