Just thought I would throw this out there. If you are ranked 1 - 8, do not read on. Rather than sit around twiddling our thumbs while the big boys go at each other, is anyone interested in a Clayton's final series for the teams ranked 9 to 18? Same rules, same format. Just thought it might be preferable to putting all our players to bed early. Anyone up for it?
Sounds great. Could be given the who cares cup, or the Zac Dawson cup, surely there are plenty of humorous names that could be given for it. !!!
[span style='color: #4f6128;]The Zac Dawson Who Cares Cup. Once again you have outdone yourself Fitzy. 'Course this means that Zac can't possibly be selected to play in his own cup - he has to be presenting on the podium.
Lefties haven't given up hope on making the 8 but in the event we don't... I'll take a shot at the Zac
Fitzy and his mate Len won't be friends this weekend and will be tearing each other's throats out for that final 8 spot. The 8 will be pretty much settled after that, despite Gravenger's late challenge. Regrettably, there will be no committee to determine who plays who for the Zac Dawson. It will be a cutthroat draw determined by the Under Assistant West Coast Promotion Commissioner (Jolcon). R1, 5 matches of 10 teams, leaving 5 teams standing - the lowest scoring team of that 5 gets the chop (sorry 'bout that). R2 is 2 matches involving 4 teams, highest score vs. lowest. R3 two men (persons, actually) standing. This slightly more random system provides an opportunity for teams like Larrikin and the Hoppers to redeem their respective seasons, some solace for ant getting wiped in DT finals and for those mild mannered Lilacs from down the highway to kill, kill, kill. One thing tho, we do need those 10 teams to stick their hand up for this bit of fun.

Due to my upcoming draw combined with recent injuries, my top 4 tilt may soon turn into reach for Zac's cup. And from what my VC Nick tells me, you don't need 2 hands to lift it.
