Before we get into the reviews, I want to have a quick look at who is already confirmed to either be promoted or relegated for next season.
In Premier League, Fudge will be going down to Div 1 after a terribly injury influenced season, and he will be joined in Div1 by either Dabombers or Maggots.
Jet is the only player confirmed to be promoted to PL next season, and the other PL teams need to watch out as he has now been promoted two years running!
Two teams are definitely being relegated from Div1 to Div 2 after losses this week, and they are[span style='font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; line-height: 17.98611068725586px; outline: 0px; background-color: #fbfbfb; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;]spm67 and[span style='font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; line-height: 17.98611068725586px; outline: 0px; background-color: #fbfbfb; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;]rodgo.

[span style='outline: 0px; background-color: #fbfbfb; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;]I'll start with my game. Despite scoring over 1500, I was really lucky to get so close as I needed 49 games (including a 100+ fpt game from LeBron) to get there. Ruddy beat me with only 42 games played from his mob andthoroughlydeserved to win. This was an exciting matchup though as it was so close and went right down to the final game of the week between Atlanta and the Lakers (which Steve was actually at) - going into that game, I was pretty confident Teague and Nash would outscore MWP by the 50odd points needed to get the job done, but it wasnt to be, and Ruddy now finds himself up against the pace setter all season, in Jasmine. Best scorers for Ruddy over the week were Durant (202 from 3), Monroe (175 from 4), Brook Lopez (156 from 3) and Iguodala (150 from 3); while for anthak the best were James (252 from 3!), Lee (127 from 3), and Klay Thompson and Teague (both 124 from 4).

(HEAVER) 1402[/b]
[span style='font-variant: normal; line-height: 17.98611068725586px; font-size: small; font-style: normal; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;]This game was a bit of a blow-out and was relatively low scoring with both teams getting less than 40 games played each. Heaver got out to a big 200+ pt lead on day 1 and despite Mick winning 3 of the remaining 6 days and only falling 2 short on one other, Heaver was able to extend his lead to win by 266 all up and book a date with the Kings of Karlos in the semi finals. The best players for Heaver were Horford (265 from 4), Bryant (157 from 3) and Lowry (156 from 4); while the best for Mick were Sanders (134 from 3), Marcus Thornton (126 from 3), Dwight Howard (103 from 3 and Felton (102 from 3).

<p style='font-weight: bold;]Judd Team Stowie(1653) def #5 Crossy Crusaders(1408)
<p style='font-weight: bold;]
In a high scoring encounter it was Team Stowie that got the win and who now move on to week 2 where they will next meet the team of Didn't Draft Durant (doh) for a spot in the div 1 grand final. Stowie's score of 543 on day 3 of this matchup made it very difficult for Crossy to catch up but they gave it their best shot and will now look forward to next season. Team Stowie had 11 players score over 100 fantasy points for the week led by Monta Ellis's 205. Brook Lopez(156), George Hill(153) and Iggy(150) were the other top scorers. Crossy's score of 1408 would have beaten most other teams this week and he can thank Holiday(160), Moore(143), Sanders(134) and Harris(130) for posting such a competitive total.

<p style='font-weight: bold;]Selwood Mildura Dunkanauts (1474) def #6 Broady Broncos (1291)

The Dunkanauts proved too strong for the broncos in their matchup this week thanks mainly to a final day score of 316 to the bronco's 185. The win sees the Dunkanauts progress onto week 2 where the boys from the Sausage Arm Butchers are waiting with open arms. Bad luck to the bronco's who have had a great season. The Dunkanauts were again led by Durant(202) and Duncan(162) who was a welcome return from injury. A couple of trade ins over the season of Griffin(191) and Deng(161) were also big contributors this week. The broncos were well served by Wade(187), Monroe(175), Harden(165) and Nowitzki(150).
