ROUND 21: WEEK II of FINALS
Semi-Finals Week
SF1: Brownie's Bandits v Blaze of Glory
JCameron returns for both teams whilst Brownie's Bandits loses Birchall and Blaze of Glory loses Snelling from last week's teams. Prior to trades, both coaches will be fielding 1 short of a full 'Premium' team with benches looking relatively thin for this encounter. With currently 10 POD players in their respective squads, there will be some twist & turn before either coach can claim to have that edge over the other. Brownie's Bandits looks to have the POD players with consistent scoring and Blaze of Glory's group could have a major say if they all combine to fire in the same week, something which is not too far away in their memory bank.
Prediction: Brownie's Bandits to win by 55 points
SF2: Goodie's Guns v Jaca's Attackers
Goodie's Guns was outcoached last week and will look to put his best foot forward in this do or die encounter. Jaca's Attackers hardly broke a sweat in qualifying for this round in recording their season's high with relative ease. Teams are currently separated by 6 POD players, however, I'm sure that pending trades will have a say either way. Despite the parity in the overall ranking, there doesn't seem to be much between the 2 coaches on paper and the final outcome of this match will be on a knife's edge until the very last moment.
Prediction: Goodie's Guns to win by 23 points
