All invites have been sent out for everyone to join the leagues.
Can everyone please join their league and can everyone also please ensure their rosters are empty.

We have a couple of people keen to play that could not get into Division 3, so we may set up a 5th league if there is more interest over the coming weeks.


This is how the leagues have finished up:

- if a team wins the minor premiership (the league splits into two finals systems like SuperCoach) they are exempt from relegation, and the lowest ranked at end of regular season will be relegated (that already isnt being relegated of course).
