@Bay11 topped the group with a massive score in a tough week and turned it into a horrendous weekend for the Shinboners as they lose on field, they lose in fantasy land and they topple out of the 8 despite @Woodsey's best efforts.

The Western Bulldogs jump back into the 8 as @aleceee leads them to 2nd in the group and to a 238 point win over Sydney and @Trickee.

Collingwood were 3rd ranked with @Axewell getting up by 58 points against @GavinD and Freo.

The Tigers remain on the fringe of the 8 with @nicohighscore guiding them to a tight win over West Coast and @Manikato1 by 12 points.

Essendon retain top spot with a 72 point victory over Geelong. The reps here were @Impromptu and @Shaunpro1.

Adelaide and @dylan123 edge past GWS and @NT.Thunder by just 6 points.

@Slammer gets the better of @Tails as Carlton account for Port Adelaide by 170 points.

St Kilda topples Gold Coast as @stephen outpoints @Ironhawk by 172 points.

Brisbane get over Melbourne in another tight one as @Foxy's Fe-Lions outlasts Ben's Beasts by 13 points.

Top of the group this week was @Vicwood who lead Collingwood to a 140 point win over Port and @Tails.

Second ranked was Geelong with @Mr_Arrogance defeating @Foxy's Fe-Lions and Brisbane by 141 points.

Third placed was @stephen and St Kilda who edged out fourth placed @Beast_Mode and North by a single, solidary, soul-destroying point.

Essendon defeated Western Bulldogs with @BomberSam getting over @Crocodiles by 89 points.

Gold Coast got their 3rd win for the season by beating GWS by 121 points. The reps here were @Ironhawk and @Spifflicator.

Carlton remains top 4 with @bluesbrothers delivering them a 45 point win over West Coast and @GrainFedBeef.

Richmond lost to Hawthorn by 29 points with @nicohighscore unable to topple @The 30 Spartans.

Adelaide dealt Melbourne's finals hopes a blow with @dylan123 getting over @francis by 48 points.

Fremantle recorded their 3rd victory for the year with a 70 point win over Sydney thanks to @The Experiment beating @Scaries6.0.

One round to go until we reach finals and 7 of the 8 spots are decided with 4 teams competing for the final spot. Richmond play Melbourne this week in a virtual elimination final whilst North play West Coast and Western Bulldogs play GWS. Melbourne have the clear percentage advantage however will need all 3 teams above them to lose to make it. The percentages are close enough between Bulldogs, Richmond and North that the margins this week will determine the finalist if any 2 of those win.

Carlton topped the group this week with @bluesbrothers leading them to a 33 point win over Collingwood and @Termin8ter789.

Melbourne were 2nd ranked with @jcrameri defeating @Seymour Skinner and Richmond by 144 points. Unfortunately the Demons fall just short of a finals berth despite being 7th ranked on points.

Essendon were placed 3rd with @WindyHillWizard getting over Sydney and @Trickee by 135 points.

Geelong and @Shaunpro1 beat Fremantle and @GavinD by 113 points.

West Coast claim their finals spot thanks to @GrainFedBeef edging out North Melbourne and @Bontempele by 30 points. North miss the finals for the first time despite being 6th best on points.

The Western Bulldogs also lock in their finals spot with @aleceee getting the victory over GWS and @NT.Thunder by 112 points.

Port Adelaide get a belated victory over Adelaide with @Tails edging out @Sledge by 35 points.

Hawthorn's quest for back to back remains on track with a 28 point win over St Kilda. The reps here were @Bay11 and @Demolished.

Gold Coast finish on a bright note with @Erich1036 outlasting @dicksilverman and Brisbane by just 9 points.

We now head into finals to see which team will be crowned the 4th winner of the SCS One-eyed Club Challenge. The 3 former champions in Essendon, Carlton and Hawthorn are all still alive as are regular finals participant Collingwood. St Kilda and West Coast have been there once before whilst Geelong and Western Bulldogs will see finals action for the first time. Note the first edition in 2020 was a different format that did not include finals.

@Such is Fyfe topped the group with a massive score which saw Collingwood make short work of reigning premier Hawthorn and @randomcliche by 204 points and progress straight to the prelim.

Nearly as impressive was @ScottishBomber who was ranked 2nd in the group and to lead Essendon to the prelim over only a slightly less impressive @Nib and Carlton who ranked 3rd in the group just 15 points behind.

Geelong and @Shaunpro1 got over the Western Bulldogs and @aleceee to book a spot in the semi and consign the gallant Doggies (and their 6 reps) to mad monday.

West Coast also advanced to the semi with @Miller is a Steele getting the victory over St Kilda and @Markl by 158 points.

Other teams top scorers were @writeoff (Ade), @Spifflicator (GWS), @Bontempele (North), @GavinD (Freo), @Ginty22 (Rich), @Ironhawk (GC), @Spiny Norman (Port), @jaca (Syd), @legauch3 (Melb), @siwel (Bris).

Apologies but hadn't realised I didn't provide an update here last week after the semis which were won by Carlton (@Matt) & Hawthorn (@Bay11). The prelims were won by Essendon (@Chumpion) and Collingwood (@Lgndhen23) so they will match up in the grand final this weekend. I will try and catch up on the full updates over the next few days.

In what must be the most thrilling and unbelievable finish to any competition on this site ever there was a tie for the number one ranked team in the SCS group in the final round between @ScottishBomber and @Axewell on 2835 points. Notably @ScottishBomber follows Essendon and @Axewell follows Collingwood which were the 2 grand finalists in the SCS One-eyed Club Challenge which means the grand final finished in a tie.

Of course, I never contemplated such a scenario when designing this comp and there is no next week to conduct a replay (and I hate ties) so I have made the executive decision to award the title to the team with the best 2nd ranked score. Therefore I hereby announce that Collingwood are the premiers in the 4th SCS One-Eye Club Challenge after @Lgndhen23 just got over the top of @Tyson12 by 17 points.

Honour Role
2020 Essendon
2021 Carlton
2022 Hawthorn
2023 Collingwood

The other club reps in the final round were @writeoff (Adelaide), @Rickwood (Richmond), @Brookesy (Port Adelaide), @Scaries6.0 (Sydney), @wolfbunny (St Kilda), @aleceee (Western Bulldogs), @Erich1036 (Gold Coast), @KLo30 (North Melbourne), @dicksilverman (Brisbane), @Mr_Arrogance (Geelong), @bluesbrothers (Carlton), @Spifflicator (GWS), @GavinD (Fremantle), @Hawk (Hawthorn),@Lost In The Sky (West Coast) and @legauch3 (Melbourne).

Most enjoyable @Beg2Differ thanks for adding some colour to our weekly lives. And congrats to those Collin.....mfff supporters.

Strange that all 4 prelim finalists including now Collingwood are the current/previous winners.
Is it that, as example because Collingwood and Essendon represented 26.7% of the total players?
Or is that they just play Supercoach better than players from other clubs?
Either way a fun aside from the regular and constant search for Supercoach points and/or trades :p

I would think that the more players entered from the one club, the more chances they'd have at attaining the highest score, kinda makes sense :)
Just means we have to be better next year mate! :LOL:
