Goondiwindi would be stiff to miss out on at least getting to the GF. Interestingly though, since round 1 they have only had the high score of the round once so I think they are beatable. Unfortunately I can't see it being my Buffaloes so my money is on the last team to get the job done against the Goanna's... King Island!
I reckon it will be the Blanchetown Bunyips as they have a great run home with the winner in the last game of the season to be the decider of the top of the table. With their depth for the finals they'll be hard to beat for the flag.

Goondiwindi are favourites... but Pakenham might just be an outside chance as well [hoping Pakenham win though as we were the first team to beat them ]
I've liked Blanchetown from the start, in fact I revisited my predictions to see if I'm Nostradamus-lite. For theBunyips I concluded: 'Should be there come the pointy end of the season. Wouldn't surprise me if they finished the H&A season as minor premiers. Fear the Bunyips.' When looking at form, Pearcedale remain the dark horse imho. 7 on the trot and a very good recent scoring record.

I did win, but as ive been married for a while im used to pleasing myself... so i guess i get the best of both worlds

If you do it again, serious questions will be asked about your commitment Thoughts Commish? looks pretty black and white Any other round I'd agree. Problem is this round the donuts advantage the team not posting and disadvantage me. Surely the weighting should be in favour of the coach that has posted a team. If I win by out scoring his now posted team, fair enough, but my opposition shouldn't gain at my cost. Hey im totally with you EE - if i were to win and make it thru to finals im only making up the numbers as my squad is decimated thru injury and bad form, so really im just depriving myself a better draft pick... im just a stickler for rules thats all. Whether its people being dodgy or its completely legit 'real life' reasons, i still think rules are rules and should be abided by. But anyway thats y we appointed Tomster commish and thats why he gets paid the big bucks - to make the call on things like this! Had TTT fielded a team and won, you would be 9th but them's the breaks (oh no, you made the finals )
