Warrior General Games

As I promised, here's my first stab at the Alpha team predictions! Last week my predictions went 8-1, and I'm now 19-6 on the season. (76%)

Best Selection of last week
Komodo Dragons vs. Alaska Wild: (Prediction: 38-14; Actual: 31-16)



Memphis Kings vs. Pittsburgh Steelerz: Pittsburgh looks to be the strongest team in Alpha, and as of right now, my pick to win the alpha conference. Memphis has two losses already this season, even though they do look a bit stronger than last year.
Pittsburgh, 54-14

Phoenix Eagles vs. South Sydney Rabid Rabbitohs: Phoenix is like the Fiji Rage of the Alpha conference. No one is really talking about them, but they KNOW they can beat some people. South Sydney on the other hand is like Suva...the only difference is that they'll win one game this season, and they already did!
Phoenix, 80-3

Melbourne Marvels vs. Cardiac Kids MD: Melbourne is rated the best offense in the entire league by my stat tracking thing, and they got past a very tough Christmas team. Cardiac has some very strong leveled players, but also have a few holes.

****UPSET ALERT****
Cardiac, 27-24

Soloman Islands Pack vs. Tonga Little Engine That Could: Tonga definitely has some consistent depth on this team, and if anything causes a problems it's that. Soloman Island is a strong team, and always seems to game plan very well.
Soloman Island, 52-10

Redcliff Razamanaz vs. Topeka Twisters: Redcliff has a big win over Devonport by two, and just beat a decent KC Chiefs team. Topeka's team level bars may not show much, but this is definitely a team with some skill. Redcliff may just be too strong, though.
Redcliff, 41-21

Alderaan Explosion vs. Mighty KC Chiefs: Alderaan has the highest ranked defense in the league. You say it won't last, but they've played Wellington and Dayton, two very strong offenses. The Chiefs are a solid team, but they've been matched up with two tough teams thus far. Can the Chiefs finally hit their stride against a team pretty closely matched to them?
Alderaan, 31-17

Wellington Wizards vs. Kaka'ako Ku: Wellington is a top three team in the Alpha conference, and Kaka'ako is no walk over team. Wellington has been running the ball very well so far this season, and Kaka'ako's defense has been less than stout. I just can't see such an unbalanced offense like Kaka'ako's winning this game. Sorry guys!
Wellington, 48-7

Wellington Colonials vs. Rekohu Raptors: Rekohu in the past was a very strong team, but have really fallen off the map in season 8. Wellington has never been to competitive in Oceania AA4, but this may be a game they can win. I just can't see it happening!
Rekohu, 31-13

Piercing the Heart of Zeta (A clever way of saying a stab into Zeta)
Dunedin Drones vs. Dayton Gunslingers: This is the game of the week because of how big the rivalry is. I remember looking back at the Oceania A8 boards occasionally and there would be fierce trash talk going on between both teams. Dunedin has two upsets (in my book) already, while Dayton has started off 0-2. Dunedin is tied for 1st in offense and 2nd in defense. Who will prevail?
Dunedin, 30-17

Team Shout-Out!
This goes to the Dunedin Drones. They're the only team for me to have predicted wrong TWICE already this season! They got a big win from Rochester, and are now boasting a 2 game winning streak in a very tough Oceania AA4 league.

Poll of the Week!
Could Dunedin have been competitive in Oceania AA4 Zeta last season?

Loving the shout out the Drones!

Good job on the Alpha write ups. Show the man some love Alpha

Great job blue good stuff. Hope your right on the Eagles score.

Good work

Hope Dunedin proves you wrong again!!!

PS




























SandShock sucks!

Actually lets wait 24 hours and then i'll post new ones

Don't you mean THE play. Anyone can win the lottery!

But not anyone can win the trophy. http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=4876

Season 7, Oceania A #8
Zeta Conference Champ

End of story

See I'm not offended by Bootnaka here, he has a good point and infact i do think should Drones have been up here last season we would have stayed in AA4 but not gotten a playoff spot.

However an extra season that let us do a lot of things especially with AI's paid off well and now we have a better roster and of course our core players have leveled up again and are beastly.

We're headed straight for the playoffs this year so don't go underestimating our ability this season, because we will cause upsets and fight till the end of every game.

I think you hit it on the head, and I wasn't trying to be offensive, just trying to get across what you just wrote, it took you that time to completely finetune all aspects of your team, and I have always been a fan of you guys, and I think that I have stated that before. Now, that you have all aspects addressed you have a major chance, and I am glad that you took this the right way, and I look forward to our game, glad you guys are up here honestly. -Naka

4 teams from Zeta were promoted this past offseason. The teams that are fighting for home play off games this season were/would have been fighting just to make the playoffs last season. The teams that end up with road playoff games this season would not have made the playoffs last season.

The reality is that Zeta has been extremely tough every season that I have been a part of this league (and have won the championship each of those 5 seasons). Alpha has always had very good teams, but top to bottom, Zeta has been tougher.

Being one of the bottoms teams in Zeta, I am going to have to agree with Plankton.

This is a very tough conference, and it won't be any easier from here on up! Glad you guys made it to the party, seriously, but gameplanning, and execution are the keys now. You guys will get it!

They'll get it but not in time to save them losing and going 0-3 in the season and 1-2 in the rivalry
