Great stuff guys. 2pts behind at the start of the 4th and you won by 15. Nice.

Intresting at the top of alpha now.

If Toro beat Underground they secure #1 spot barring any suprise loss to The Forsaken while Underground could be scratching around stuggling to secure 4th and a home playoff, with 5th likely in that scenario.

If Toro lose to Underground, Underground would likely secure #2 spot, as Basin City play Cork, and either Cork wins to secure #1 spot, or Basin City win to secure #1 spot, again providing either wins their expected final games. Underground could secure #1 spot but would need to beat Toro, relly on Basin City beating Cork, and then Basin City loosing and Cork City loosing their final games, due to losing to both these teams during the season. ALTHOUGH, if Toro Lose to Underground, while Basin City beat Cork and Glastonbury win out, it leaves ALL 5 teams on 14-2. This will then leave it down to points scored (am I correct here?) Or scored/against total?

if it goes down to that then this is the current totals

Toro - Scored 913, conceeded 246, total 667
Cork - 887, 185, 702
London - 1084, 308, 776
Basin City - 955, 279, 676
Glastonbury - 862, 239, 623

London has the best record there so far.


Of course if Cork & Toro win its Toro#1, Cork #2, with Glastonbury #3, Basin City #4 and London #5

If Cork win and Toro Lose its Cork#1, London #2, Glastonbury #3, Toro #4 Basin City #5

If Toro win and Cork lose its Toro #1, Cork/Glastonbury/Basin City going to points difference for 2#,3#,4# and London 5#

If Cork and Toro both Lose its down to points difference for all 5 places I think.


This is obviously going on the top 5 winning their other games. No deisrespect meant, but none have lost to outside the top 5 yet and I wouldnt imagine it would happen.

That's a lot of pressure on the last few games.

I would think that head-to-head would be the first tiebreaker.

If all teams are 14-2, head to head is thrown out, but it would then go to each teams record against the other 4 teams. I think all of those would still be equal and if they are; then it comes down to TOTAL POINTS SCORED. NOT total net points; just total points scored.

So in your scenario (through week 14) London would be the #1 seed, BCB #2, Toro #3, Cork #4 and Glastonbury #5.

So after head to head, it goes to your common record against the other teams with the same record...... For instance, if Cork had only lost to Toro and London, then their record would be against Glastonbury and BCB would be 2-0. If Glastonbury and BCB were 1-1, then Cork would get #2 spot, then it would go to head to head........

I was in this situation last year which is why I am so familiar with it. So, there ya go!

well yeah of course, but with 5 teams at the top all 14-2 and ALL of them only losing their games to the top 5 in question, then head to head is thrown out. nobody can have an edge in that situation as its a dead draw all round.

but yeah, if it goes to points scored, im happy as we lead, and if it goes to total net points, im happy as we lead.....


that said we still have to beat tero and hope basin city beat cork! which is never a forgone conclusion!
