Sorted.

If this happens again next season, I am SO getting a spreadsheet to keep track of it all.

Lizards have too many scoring options and strength, Lizards to Win.
Nurgle To win, so much strength on the nurgle side should see them through i think....
Skaven to win (they are due one....)

Percy has some time to make predictions, although he's asked me to do it because his laptop is installing a million updates and his thumbs are too big to use a fancy tart phone.

Amazons vs lizards . Fresh meat Moose seems to be growing up fast, and the toddler Red Lion is in that difficult 2nd season... Both coaches are surely aware of the massively historical grudging for these teams... Percy's insider knowledge knows the Moose has Lizard in his bloodline, he can only imagine what kind of crazy night that was... Possibly a draw, but Percy says 2-1 to the Moose.

Nurgle vs Humans two teams on different form curves... The Nurgle are on the rise, developing nicely (how does the 'dalf always have AG4 players!?) And have been accumulating gold and SPP for fun while the poor Black Stars haven't even been able to muster a team drinking session since the double funeral and the mauling from the league favourites. And they're not exactly inspired by their fellow convict's current sporting prowess either... Star Catcher Bush is out out for the game too waiting for Specialist Dr Shroom to finish growing him a new leg.

But it is indeed a pivotal match at the top of the table, and no doubt will be on everyone's crystal ball, expecting a spectacle... So expect a rugby match grind fest. Percy's hoping for the humans to get back on track but in all honesty he expects another morale sapping loss. 1-0 to Nurgle.

Khorne Vs Rats pissed off demons vs piss smelling rats (c'Mon, they live in the sewer...). The Khorne coach seems to spend a lot of time with the demon and working his team into a frenzy of mega blocks... Leaving himself exposed to completely forgetting about the rest of the match a lot of the time... While the pubescent rats are still learning themselves... Probably the game of the week to watch for entertainment. Percy sees the rats just edging it with their superior movement. 2-1 to the rats.

I actually rolled another +AG on a rotter recently, but turned it down, I felt one AG4 rotter was enough. Plus he already had block anyway. If I get a +AG roll on a pestigor though I am totally taking it.

... So expect a rugby match grind fest

Yeah totally, I can't see it being a high-scoring game. I haven't even conceded in the last 4 matches. :o

I'll go for draw, draw, draw.

Week 7

Raveen underlined his predicting prowess this week by getting 2 right. la drew a blank whereas everyone else scored 1.

Standings

All hail King Raveen at the moment...

13 = Raveen
11 = notjarvis, Percy
10 = Gandalf
8 = la
7 = RL3 (1 week missed)

Not sure of the next matches... depends when la's next 2 games are happening exactly.

Crikey.

I should be playing this Sunday. I might be able to fit in a mid week game Gandalf? I have you and Skaven and Dwarves to play.

yes... you have Skaven on the last day of the season (29th) so have to play Rav & myself before then. I have a busy week followed by being away for the weekend so can't play you this week - we are pencilled in for the catch-up Sunday next week. I could move it to some midweek night in the weeks of 17th or 24th, but maybe Sunday is the best so people can watch as it will have a big bearing on the destination of the title?

I don't know when you want to play Rav - or indeed if you should play him or myself first in the name of sporting integrity. For the record, I don't mind.

I don't really mind either, but had agreed with Rav to play him on the catch up Sunday not seeing that he'd already put me vs you there... Can leave it till Rav's back to decide if you want, that way we can see whose availability is easiest to sort out.

I had a moan at him for putting his match in the catch-up day when I had mentioned my unavailability for August 14th 3+ months in advance and having pestered him about it many times since :p So he put our game there instead. Agree there's currently no rush so we can wait until Rav gets back.

I'm back in Saturday so I can play anytime next week within reason. Mondays are undesirable because I have a date with Victoria Coren-Mitchell.
