Looks like we are coming down the to the business end of the season. So many teams but so few spots.

In the Big 8, you got 6 teams that still has a chance to make 4th or 5th spot.

In the great 8, you got 4 teams trying to get a top 5 finish.

In the Great 8 we have three amazing teams (not me) one of whom will 90% win the championship. Sure Aussie Pride, Monkey Business and Pancakes with Jam and Cream are good but look at the results. Their top team Aussie Pride only beat our worst team by 14, their second top team Monkey Business was thrashed by you (fourth in Great 8) by 29 and their third top team Pancakes with Jam and Cream went down by 42 to Whitebeard.

It is incredible that the record that Pancakes with Jam and Cream has of seven wins and +11 PD gets you third in the Big 8 but would put you in seventh in the Great 8. So unbalanced.

Ha ha I guess so, certainly the Great 8 has been full of tankers most seasons, this is unusual that everyone is actually trying.

lol Pancakes good? who are you kidding?

I threw in the towel weeks ago! Had half a team while facing the Great 8 teams and have logged in for a total of about 20 minutes in the last 2 months.

a) the great 8 is clearly stronger this season, no dispute.

b) saying aussie only beat wa by 14 is hugely misleading. He played with less effort, and won by a blowout before wa brought it back against the bench.

c) the top three teams in the great 8 will beat each up trying to get hca.

d) aussie can probably cruise to top spot, and pon through the playoffs. He probably has some cash to buy up to if he wants (and he should).

Summary - aussie pride is favourite from here, particularly if he can snatch hca off whitebeard.

More like top 2 teams, only goldfish can catch whitebeard now and I still believe he won't cos whitebeard wont tank anymore games since he is not in the CUP anymore.

Title will come to the Great 8 again, just depends on who. Most likely whitebeard. 90% whitebeard, 10% goldfish. 39% for goldfish if he buys up to 1.5mil like he said he would.

Aussie is only one game behind. All it takes is Guanzheng to beat Whitebeard, and he could make up the PD gap against hte weaker big 8 and potentially have HCA through the playoffs. And if he gets HCA, his team is good enough to win - from my quick skim, he pulls comparable or better ratings to all the great 8 teams.

Just saying, its far from a forgone conclusion that the title goes to the great 8 ;)

Aussie is too good for me, even with extra effort I couldn't overcome his HCA and he won by eight. Then again I don't think I'm in the same league with Whitebread, Goldfish and Koopasaurus.
