The first game for Round 17 commences at 7:50pm on Friday at Eddie's Hat so your teams need to be submitted to this thread by 5:40pm WA time.
Nail Biters With Three To Go
As much as Round 16 had some ho-hum match ups, Round 17 will have the franchisees checking and double-checking their players' stats throughout the weekend.
The round commences with Alvin trying to defeat the powerful please-like-me Men at Cockburn Stadium. Alvin, however, doesn't intend to lie down for Slammo and he's hoping not to make the dreaded list. Unfortunately, come Monday, Alvin will be appended the list.
Davo's Killers had a shock loss last week and find themselves hosting the impressive Superstars at Harper Rose Stadium. Davo sits comfortably in 3rd spot on the ladder and is six points clear of Oos who is just out of the top four. Davo is safe in the four but a win this week would cement the Killers position for the first week of the InsertGoldSponsorsNameHere Final Series.
FD is worried as he's facing the rejuvenated Heroes this week. The Procrastinators are in the scrap for that last spot in the eight and Hypen has found form. A few weeks ago, this game would have been a push-over for the Procrastinators. A few weeks ago.
That last spot in the eight is held by BaliBoy's Chevrons. The Chevrons are heading for a humiliating defeat at Sandi's hands and the Chevrons' chance to play in the InsertGoldSponsorsNameHere Final Series is in doubt.
Oos also has a danger game. The Captain's Giants are capable of defeating anyone and the Purple Caviar are just that type of anyone. I think Oos is in trouble as is Nelson. MattyT has a team that can take down the Dreamers. Luckily for Nelson, he's safe in the eight.
In the other games… Polly's Dooleys will defeat Blocker's Willsie Aeroplane, The Bags will lose to Derby's Schooners and PurpleKit faces a tough fight against 391's Emperors but I think the Nail Bags will fall over the line.
