I expect to balance last week's perfect record with a brutal 0'fer outing here. 16-0 begets 0-16.


On to the idiocy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111oneoneeleven.


Auckland Flames vs. South Australian Serial Killers

Relegation Challenge - game 1 (a game my team knows all too well ) . Auckland lashes out and takes it 87-17

Sydney Sea Dragons vs. Manilla Gorillaz

Dragons hit triple digits 125-10.

Newcastle Surfers vs. Darwin Mud Crabs
Newscastle takes this one, pulling away late 51-10.

Vanuatu Gunslingers vs. The Throwback Cowboy's

Gunfight at the OK Corral. Problem is that one of the gunfighters is blind and using a water gun.
Throwback 165 Blownback 10.

Samoa Piranha Monkeys vs. Heard Island Refugees

HUGE clash this week that will could determine a home vs. away game in the playoffs. P-Monks follow Tom Petty's lead and don't live like Refugees. P-Monks 31-Refugees 21.

Easter Island Moai vs. Vero Renegades

Does anyone want to trade schedules with us over the next 4-5 weeks?

Palau Pimp Smackers vs. Gold Coast Titans

HUGE matchup between two teams that are going to finish well over .500 and have just faced the tough stuff early. Give me the Pimp Smackers in a classic - 42-35.

Alice Springs Fire vs. Ohio Valley Ironmen

BOOM GOES THE DYNAMITE!! Game of the week and then some. How can anyone pick this one? Easy - they listen to Jimi Hendrix. Let me stand next to your Fire. Fire 34 - Ironmen 21.

Atlantis Armageddon vs. Dunedin Wolverines

Huge game that again has homefield playoff implications. I've got to go with Dunedin, but I have no basis for this pick. HUNCHSET SPECIAL!!!!!!

Tasmania Devils vs. Hueco Mundo Hollows

BOOM GOES THE PLASTIQUE!!! Huge matchup in Zeta - two teams enter 1 loss leaves. Mudno is mas macho. Hollows 52 Devils 35.

Cimmerian Barbarians vs. Coney Island Warriors

Coney comes out of it's brutal early schedule and throws a brutal beating on Conan's Compadres 88-13.

Boondock Saints vs. Solomon Islands Alchemy

Damn - this one is a great duo.
Two REALLY good teams faceoff - the Saints continue their hardluck early streak and drop this one, but they're going to hammer some teams late and will win 10 or 11 on the season. Soloman 44 - Saints 34.

Outback Astronauts vs. Uluru Rockies

catch the train to relegation station Astronauts 55 - Rockies 17.

New Jersey Justice vs. Redscape Diplomats

Justice vs. Diplomats? DOWN WITH GOVERNMENT POWER TO THE PEOPLE!!! *sorry lost my head for a moment ... ... looks like Justice will get it's 2nd test of the season, this time they pass in a good one Justice 34 - Diplomats 20.

Tasmania Sand Gnats vs. Mauna Kea Chenabogs

Mauna has had a brutal early schedule, really both teams have. I think both of these teams will rebound big in the 2nd half of the season, this one is a last team to score wins type --- I'll take the San Gnats because we played them and logic is for the other guys. 35-28.

Krakatoa Kings vs. Papua New Guinea Macaque and Balls

how can these two teams be 2-2? Someone goes over .500 and I think it will be Papua, but they'll both finish over .500. Balls 37 - Kings 31.

The Saints have lost to the Alchemy enough times already... I think our luck is going to turn around starting now!
I see the Saints winning 30-27 in a defensive battle to the end.
Hoping you go 0-16 for our sake - but Love the posts!

Wow, we got picked over the Ironmen? Man, I'm not actually sure how I feel about that. Ohio Valley is an awesome team and I have always seen them as a lot like us. The won our first match up and we won last year. Like us, their little scouting bars had them below the league's best talent but they seemed to win a lot. They also run a lot like we do.

It was a good game last year and I think it will be this year again. I do not think it will be a 13 point margin either way though, I think it'll be close no matter who wins.

I'm hoping you're wrong about 0-16 and right about this match-up. I think it'll be a good one . . .

I don't think you've been paying attention Garrett- we don't do defensive battles.

yeah, I think both of your teams have a really good chance at a league championship this season. Very good teams. I think that 13 point margin was supposed to be a 3 point margin and I couldn't decide between 34-31 or 24-21 -- I agree with you that it's probably going to be close. chalk that one up to too much lighter fluid and not enough paying attention.

Oh, and good luck to everyone today! (except you Easter Island - I hope you guys get the 24 hour flu. twice.)

This week there are SO many games that are between really evenly matched teams, should be a much wilder set of outcomes for sure.

Well HornCynic the Wolverines will do what they can to make so you don't go 0-16 this week.

Great read thanks for your time.

We've had some good battles with you guys. this should be another one. And A 3 point game is more like it, but 10-13 isn't too big of a stretch.

I know for a fact that you got at least one of these picks right, Horn. It was a higher-scoring game, though.

Very close although with 4 INT's ( 2 of which while driving for TD's ) by our QB it should not have been.
