Warrior General Games

Toowoomba Terrapins@ Decatur Staleys

With the #2 Offense & #9 Defense the Terrapins come into this game 3-1 and very capable of winning. They struggled against Amsterdam but have fired on all cylinders elsewhere. Decatur has been whipping down punishment on everyone in their path, Newark was just their lastest victim. Decatur is ranked #5 Offensive, #2 Defensively, are going to be looking to steamroll the Terrapins. Both teams are going to have to keep up their defensive strength because I have a feeling that Defense is what this game is going to come down to.


Score Prediction: 13-10 Decatur


Williamsport Soul Reavers @ Amsterdam Space Cakes

WSR has struggled thus far this season with every good team they've faced. Offensively they're ranked #3 in Offense, however, defensively they're ranked #15 and even worse #22 against the run, potentially an area Amsterdam can take advantage of. Amsterdam has pretty much laid to rest the hopes of all the teams they've faced including the very solid Terrapins. Offensively the Space Cakes are ranked #18 overall, defensively they're ranked 4th. They have the #7 Rush Defense in the league, going up against a team that is just not good defensively against the rush. If WSR is truly going to be a playoff contender they need to make that statement right now. Amsterdam is clearly a top 4 team along with 3C, Dec and A.S.S. in the league. So no one would bat an eye if they laid to rest the hopes of WSR this week either.

Score Prediction: 75-3 Amsterdam


Oceania AA #3 'Tostito-Goal' Game of the Week

Kansas City Heat @ Les Remparts d'Antibes

KCH has the #1 Defense & #8 Offense in the league right now. Only SIP could be argued to have been remotely equal competition and that game was still ugly. This game is going to be 'gut check' time for Kansas City. With the #4 Offense & #5 Defense, Les Remparts comes into this game having been tested just once, against Melbourne in week 1 when they came up with a strong win. One of these teams are looking to take control of Zeta and I absolutely think it'll come down to what Les Remparts can do offensively against KCH's Defense. Look for a shootout in this one.

Score Prediction: 24-17 Les Remparts

Nice write up!!!!

Thanks for doing this!!!!

Great read

Hoping the Terrapins pull out the W this week......oh, and lolzeta

Always a pleasure, thank you for reading them.

Great Job Jack! I will disagree with 24-17 for Les Remparts. KC wins 45-17!

Thanks for the predictions and definitely love the respect sir, you are a class act so that means alot to me and the Staleys. I do have to say that it is going to take alot for us to beat a very, very good Toowoomba team that is very talented. We are ready, but at the same time, we understand that this is a growing year for us. We made a major jump to be here, back in our home, so we are happy to be able to compete. I think they have the upper hand for sure. Great team, and greatly run, so if we win, then they will have lost the game, and I know that doesn't make sense, but they will have to give the game to us for us to win this one. Thanks again JR! Great job once again!

Once again fantastic Jack!

WSR vs. NN for game of the week

<----- may well make it in a games to watch writeup yet this season.

Hard to say for me, I thought about it, and thought about how big KC COULD win, and How Big Les could win. I'm still not sure if we've seen EITHER team in full throttle yet.

Our entire league is...well it's weak tbh. No disrespect intended toward any of the rebuilding teams. But it's just the way it is. So alot of teams remain untested yet. It'll be interesting to see how that game specifically, turns out.

I agree with you. We would like to see what we can do. If my team is going to be in 1st place it needs to be because we beat the top teams, & this game is that 1st true test. Thanks for the write up, I only hope we can prove you wrong & hold up our end!

What's your overall record on the W-L predictions?

Excluding scores because those are completely and utter randomness. 6-1. The Melbourne game in which I picked Melbourne was the only game I'd picked incorrectly thus far. (most of the picks were pretty easy though). Also this is the first season I've EVER done predictions on the outcome, I've usually just done 'opinionated' write-ups.

Good job Jack !

Thanks for these, keeps things interesting while we're knocking off scrub teams each week.

I think, sorry don't know how to multi quote you and Jack, but I feel though this may be a weak league, it is not all that. I think there are some teams that could gameplan better, and utilize their rosters better. The League just like our teams, are what you make of it. The Decatur Staleys are not a world beater by any means, but we try, we bust our arses every time we go out on the field, trying not to be an easy win. We take pride in the fact that more then 50% of any league that we have been apart of has not looked forward to facing us, for we might not beat your great team, but we might expose your weaknesses. So, if more owners, pissed off their wives, cutback on their Man to hand relationships, and focused, green leaf or not, me not, but when it is legal, me will. lol, anyways, I am way off the point, this League is weak because the owners haven't pushed to get their rosters filled.

I love to hear that "Man these recruits are unbelievable" or "I sent out 100+ PM's and noone responds" and what I have to say to that is....

Have some passion, sell your team to the recruits, let them know that they are going to be apart of something special, and it takes one to get the team going in the right direction, 2 to start a movement, and 3 to start a trend and so on. If the owners get hungry, then the league will get better. I am not the best recruiter, but I bust my ass and try my hardest. The Decatur Staleys have had a full roster since our 1st Season and many accolades come with a team that is ran with passion. -Naka
