Since Fern is neglecting his duties, and hasn't updated the master post in a while, here's an update for anyone interested. As of last weekend, we have reached the halfway point of the season. 5 games down and 5 to go. As those who watched the Round 5 Wrap up will know, I have been keeping track of a lot of the stats, and will be continuing to keep track of them all before we have an end of season wrap and awards night.

At the halfway point of the season Guthy and the Perth Hills Houndooms are the red hot favourites, currently undeafeated, with only Duke and Kaka yet to face him, before we close out the season with the 3 rematch rounds. Will either of these brave souls be able stand against the might of Lenalee and Big Blue?

After that, the rest of the standings are surprisingly even. 4 teams sit on a 3-2 record, those being the Crobats, Milotics, Bidoofs and MissingNos, coached by Kaka, myself, Duke and Beavwa respectively. Only differential is separating the four of us. Who will push clear in the back end of the season and claim the second finalist's spot? Does anyone have a chance of preventing Guthy from claiming the inaugural championship?

Dezzles and the North Sydney Ninetales aren't far behind, sitting at 2-3, though a -6 differential does put a damper on any championship aspirations.

And cellar dwellers Fern and Llama, coach of the Noiverns and Cloysters are battling it out to avoid the wooden spoon. After 5 round they both sit at 1-4, and both with a -10 differential.


As we turn the corner and head for home, many questions still remain unanswered. Who will stop Guthy's charge towards the cup? Will the coaches ever allow Delibird and Qwilfish to hop off the bench and take their place on the field of battle? Will the rematches result in victories for previously defeated teams, or is history destined to repeat itself?

Stay tuned and see how the remainder of the first ever Australian Draft League plays out!!

Perth Hills Houndooms........5-0....+12

Ok folks, here's how things stand leading into the final round. Everyone still has a lot to play for:

Coach..........Team.........Wins....Losses....Differential
Guthy...........Houndooms....8........1..........+25
NovaCascade..Milotics........7........2..........+24
Kaka............Crobats........6........3..........+18
Beavwa........MissingNos.....4........5..........-9
Llama..........Cloysters......3........6...........-7
Dezzles........Ninetales......3........6..........-10
Duke...........Bidoofs.........3........6..........-21
Fern............Noiverns.......2........7..........-20

A lot of possible outcomes from this week, depending on results. Guthy, myself and Kaka are all locked in for finals. But Beavwa, Llama, Dezzles are all fighting for that final spot, only Duke and Fern are out of the running. Here are a few examples of what could potentially change the ladder:

1) If Beavwa DEFEATS Fern, then he has 4th spot sewn up, and the final four are set.

2) If Beavwa LOSES to Fern, Llama and Dezzles can take 4th Spot with a win. Dezzles needs to win by at least +4 more than Llama. IE If Llama wins 1-0, Dezzles needs to win 5-0. If Dezzles wins by +3 more than Llama, Llama retains 4th spot on account of having defeated Dezzles in their match. If Llama wins by 3-0 or better, then 4th place is his.

3) If Nova DEFEATS Kaka, and Guthy DEFEATS Dezzles, the top 3 remains as is.

4) If Nova DEFEATS Kaka and Guthy LOSES to Dezzles, Nova takes top spot and Guthy falls to 2nd.

5) If Nova LOSES to Kaka and Guthy DEFEATS Dezzles, Kaka can take second spot with a 4-0 win or better. Nova will retain 2nd place with a 0-2 or 0-1 loss. In the event of a 3-0 victory to Crobats, we will finish on exactly the same differential, and have an even record in our 2 matches, so we'll have to come up with some other method to determine rankings.

6) If Nova LOSES to Kaka and Guthy LOSES to Dezzles, Guthy retains top place and the above scenario will play out to determine 2nd

7) If Fern LOSES to Beavwa and/or Duke DEFEATS Llama, Fern takes out the inaugural Wooden Spoon.

8) If Fern DEFEATS Beavwa and Duke LOSES to Llama, Duke takes Wooden Spoon.

9) And in a very unlikely, but still mathematically possible, if Fern DEFEATS Beavwa 6-0, and Duke DEFEATS Llama 6-0, and Dezzles LOSES to Guthy, Duke and Beavwa will tie for 4th place, with an equal differential, however as Beavwa defeated Duke in Week 4, he retains 4th place on countback.

I think that is all possible outcomes for this week, if you can think of any others let me know
