Warrior General Games

Hammerhead over NightStalkers-there’s no coming back from the beat down the NightStalkersreceived last week. Sydney should pull this one out.

Tigers over Devils-no shit game of the week.

Volcano over Piranhas-Volcano will dominate Melbourne easily

Srbija over Longhorns-default win for Hattrick

Minotaurs over Outlaws-I really can’t see UWS winning this game. Newcastle hasn’t even surrendered a point yet.

Endzone over Vampires-Really this is the game of the week. Both teams have lost to the Tigers, and have a convincing victory. Really, though, I think the Endzone offense is rolling and will pull out a W in a close contest.

Seals over Convicts-Interesting game. The Seals have played well in two tough games, while you really can’t take anything from the Convicts loss to Wollagong or beat down of the gutted devils. I think the Seals can finally take a close game here.

Warriors over Mutineers-Micronesia is totally outmanned in this game.

These are strictly for entertainment purposes. Enjoy.

Ok i'll agree to everything except I'm picking the convicts over the seals and the vamps over the endzone team!!!

Vamps took it by 1!

There was some absolutely disgusting games this week. Its a shame what the gutted teams do to the season stats.

Nothing you can do about it though.

Sorry about screwing up all the stats, but I'm not sure what to do. Our QBs had 6 and 5 pancakes. Killed our energy, we should have done somethings a bit different, but I don't know how not to score, Guess we should have put a bunch of people out of position and stuff.

Playing gutted teams suck, tells you nothing about your team and trashes your energy and skews all the statistics. What a worthless week for us.

hey all i gotta say is I was 100% correct on these picks!

yeah nothing you can do about it. You have no control over there teams. I was just saying that is sucks to have it happen. We all get to play them

technically we played an active piranha team... so we don't!

Well they were exceptionally bad for us. They only had 20 players on the roster. Guess it only fills up during change over and since they gutted last night they didn't fill up. They had guys play 220, 220, 197, 194, 176 etc. plays.

The 4th Quarter was crazy, 9 1 play drives, 3 2 play drives, 1 3 play drive and TO TD. We had to cover 14 KOs in the 4th, ridiculous. Obviously they had players in the 4th that were dead tired as they were Ironmaning it. Hopefully they at least fill up on CPU players tonight so the rest of the league doesn't have to lose the amount of energy that we did.

Like I said sorry about the stats as any league leader this year will be meaningless. Shoot we averaged 35 yards a carry, 24 players got pancakes. It is utterly stupid, some of my guys had a chance for some stat awards at the end of the year, now they have a good chance but the award is worthless.

Guess I don't really understand the reason to gut a team. I can understand making everyone's contract end on day 40 then selling it. But why ship everyone out? Makes it real tough on the new owner and screws up the whole league.

Yeah, it really sucks the stats into a point of nothingness this season. I was proud of Speedy (league's best RB) taking it to the toughest teams in the league on his way to the rushing title again this season...

Now, even though we too ate up another somewhat gutted/slow build team, we would have to really force the issue against these same shitty teams when we face them coming up here soon. And I don't like having energy levels at 60 across the board, so I try to lessen the impact of the stats as best I can... I mean everyone will play these teams, obviously, but unless we all want to make a spectacle every other day of them....we won't get any real meaningful stats this year.

Oh well, at least the playoffs and SOME games this year will be worth playing/gameplanning for.

We should have done somethings different. We already had our gameplan put in before the gutting. Granted we had a whole day to change it, but didn't feel the need to as the Devils were similar and I thought we would come out ok. Them only having 20 guys on the team really blew it all up. Guess we should have changed our gameplan to one that was more energy conservative, but hindsight is 20/20. This first half of the season is brutal for us, at least the Seals were a real team and tried, they put up a fight, playing these gutted jobs sucks big time.

Yeah, I'm very glad we actually have to play a team we have to gameplan for next. The seals will have their hands full with us, but at least we won't score 150 pts on them.

If the Mutineers could get depth at some defensive positions we would be an alright team. We have ZERO offense though. The owner is going to name a new OC either tonight or tomorrow which is good but he is working with a skeleton crew of inactives and lack of depth. Our defense had a reasonable game but our DE's are in the 50's energy wise after the game which means they aren't up to 100% by the next game and can't train anything to get better. Our LB's are in a similiar situation and we had our punt returner/kickoff returner ask for his release to retire his player. We are hoping just to compete even if it is against the gutted teams at this point. We are just having troubles everywhere since the owner decided not to resign a few guys that were vital and then didn't go looking for more players until week 1 was already over. Now it's just a matter of getting the guys to want to play for us which is semi-unrealistic with the way the season has started.
