Div 6

Div 6 played yesterday and finished their round. Here are the final standings:
CAPITAL 6:

P W D L GF GA Pt
Karori Sealords 13 11 1 1 49 12 34
Tawa Devilz 13 9 2 2 39 15 29
Petone Backpackers 13 6 4 3 44 23 22
Wainui Undertakers 13 7 1 5 25 27 22
North Wellington 13 6 2 5 24 21 20
BNU Bodega 13 2 3 8 25 39 9
Lower Hutt City 13 3 0 10 14 52 9
Uni Raiders 13 0 3 10 18 49 3

Interesting that the Sealords who we had good tussles with last season but could not stop from winning Div 7 have continued their winning ways - and 11 wins from 13, pretty damn comprehensive. A damn good effort. At the other end our old rivals Uni Raiders have had a shocker of a season - not a single win! Hope that is not the deathknell of a team that were definitely struggling at the start of the season for numbers etc. Would love to have them in our grade again.

Here's a controversial thought I've had playing around in my head for a bit. If the Raiders do pull pin, does that mean there is room for a second Stallions team? I got a text from a mate last night wanting to know if we needed more players, and with the amount of keen ring-ins we have and no doubt a few from the Raiders, is there a chance of a take over? Can you imagine the battles?!

The old school yard picking of teams huh ...

cap soccer have been a lot stricter on teams and capping numbers this season, and that can only continue. interesting though - if standard promotion/relegation goes ahead there could be 3 Varsity teams in Div 7 - no one wants that - especially the club when there is such a gap between the 2nd and 3rd teams. a case for the Stallions to go higher?

they've still got a round to go don't they? should be 14 games each.
Just Sealords have sealed the title (and Raiders the spoon) with that game in hand.

Ah, never been good at that counting thing. Talking about wooden spoons - hows your team going Nick?

Well we had a win on Saturday. 4-3 over Stokes Valley.

We didn't make it easy for ourselves though.

I chucked up a brief post on the fever forum, but basically we should've been up at halftime, went 1 nil down early in second, came back to be 3-1 up and then they had a player sent off (second yellow).

But we wanted to make it interesting so gave them 2 goals to even it at 3-3, till we scored 5 from time.

Ridiculous I tell you, but it means we're off the bottom, wahoo!

Corey was there to watch it all unfold and I'm sure he would agree it was nothing if not entertaining!

2 more games, need two more results to be sure of not being auto relegated.
