Last week was a pretty good we for my predictions. I went 8-1, only suffering a loss in the Soloman Islands vs. Phoenix Eagles game. I predicted two games almost DEAD on! Woo!
Last Weeks Best Predictions:
Rekohu Raptors vs. Memphis Kings
Prediction: 20-16 Rekohu
Actual: 21-16 Rekohu
Wellington Wizards vs. Mighty KC Chiefs
Predictions: 44-13 Wellington
Actual: 41-13 Wellington
Well, it's time to increase my winning percentage (currently at 41-10 or 80%).
Pittsburgh Steelerz vs. Phoenix Eagles:Last week I decided to predict Soloman Islands would take out the Eagles, but the Eagles proved me wrong. They picked up a very solid victory last week, and hope to keep on flyin'. Pittsburgh is looking like Oceania AA4's strongest team this season, and they really make you ask the question: "can even DECATUR stop them?" After seeing what Pittsburgh did to Port Moresby in week one, they make it extremely tough to pick against them.
Pittsburgh, 31-20
Redcliff Razmanaz vs. South Sydney Rabid Rabbitohs:Redcliff is currently in the easiest stretch of their schedule, which is a good break because they really get to test a few things out. Usually I'd suggest being careful, but I don't really see too much of a need. South Sydney really isn't a team that will scare too many.
Redcliff, 51-3
Melbourne Marvels vs. Kaka'ako Ka: If the season were to end right now, Kaka'ako would finish in 9th place and one place out of the playoffs; they're really hanging on by a thread. Melbourne, is sitting pretty at the three seed fighting their way to being an outstanding 7-1. Will the teams match up for a hard fought match? Doubtful.
Melbourne, 38-17
Wellington Wizards vs. Topeka Twisters: Looks like Wellington will get a bit of a break when playing Topeka, but I have this odd little feeling about Topeka. Can they spark a fire against Wellington and surprise us all? Probably not, but they can hopefully keep it a bit closer than usual.
Wellington, 52-13
Cardiac Kids MD vs. Memphis Kings: This could be a better battle then some of us expect. Last time these two teams played was season 6, when Memphis narrowly escaped with a pretty 5 point win. Wow, how the tables have turned. Cardiac Kids look like a pretty strong team, while Memphis is sitting rock bottom in Alpha. Hey, at least Memphis has good chemistry!
Cardiac Kids, 42-16
Soloman Islands Pack vs. Rekohu Raptors: Once again, another battle between Oceania AA4 originals. Soloman Islands is coming off of a tough four point loss to the Phoenix Eagles, and are now sitting at the 7th seed in the Alpha playoffs (5-3)...I'm sure that will change, though. Rekohu escaped a close four point game to one of Alpha's worst teams in Memphis. I guess a win is a win, but I'm sure Rekohu expected more of a blowout. Hope they aren't expecting much from this game!
Soloman Islands, 35-14
Alderaan Explosion vs. Williamsburg Colonials: Alderaan really needs to be put back on the right track. They've lost 3 of their last 4 games, and started off the season at 3-1 or 4-2. Williamsburg may be the team to put Alderaan back on the map. Williamsburg is really struggling in a tough Alpha conference, and will probably be demoted back down to the A levels unless they pick it up pretty soon. Alderaan looks a bit too tough for Williamsburg, though.
Alderaan, 38-7
Tonga Little Engine That Could vs. Mighty KC Chiefs:This could be an interesting game. Tonga has good depth, but KC definitely seems to be underachieving this season. The combined records of these two teams is an ugly 1-15. Ouch! Perhaps Tonga can escape the slums of Alpha, or maybe KC will get their second win of the season.
(I'm thinking I should predict a tie!) KC Chiefs, 24-14
Zeta's Finest
Samoa Savages vs. Dunedin Drones: If Dunedin can pick up some wins they're not supposed to, maybe they can have a shot at Zeta's playoffs. Samoa has struggled this season but they rebounded last week (after 4 straight losses) against Rochester Iroquois. Dunedin REALLY needs this win, but can they actually get it? Ehh...
Samoa, 31-23
Team Shout-Out
DECATUR STALEYS. They had a huge win last week, and can start to hit the cruise control button. They rank 1st and offense and 2nd and defense. It makes you wonder with a rematch, could they possibly beat Komodo the second time around? Maybe we'll get to find out eventually.
