Chestnut 3,159 Report post Posted July 4, 2015 Well done Chiefs and beaut effort today Cam consistent selecting, well done ... I thought Secessio was going to bring home the bacon for me in the last but he just couldn't do it in time bless him Still $23 for a place isn't to be sneezed at and tops up the coffers nicely Might shout the Chiefs champagne on it if they keep up this good form!

richie 1,027 Report post Posted July 4, 2015 Ironically as Marias best bet seccessio which finished 2nd and paying $132 won then it would have been 5-0. jack 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Jenkins 2,120 Report post Posted July 4, 2015 Race 10 - Caulfield R9 1st - 4 Lord Durante W-$9.30 2nd - 8 Secessio Q-$488.30 scr: 11,12,15,17 5 BLUES (1st) $1270.00 4 points 0 CRUSADERS (3rd) $309.00 0 points Everyone missed in the last so the Blues ran out dominant winners but were denied a perfect result falling $50 shy of a team profit. Good effort nevertheless. Least said about the Crusaders' effort the better with just 6 collects from 100 tips. Gruff was Man of the Match while Mardy dons the MVP cap for the 'Canes Crusaders. 287.00 Geoff 0.00 Rob 430.00 Gruff 90.00 Tony 306.00 Steve 79.00 Dave 93.00 Moose 30.00 Gary 154.00 Howie 110.00 Mardy 4 CHIEFS (2nd) $1033.60 3 points 1 HURRICANES (4th) $1372.80 2 points Everyone missed in the last so the Chiefs took the spoils adding bonus points for a 4-1 margin and also a team profit which was also achieved by the Capital Lads who earned another for a better aggregate. Robert was the Waikato MVP while Cam was Man of the Match by a mile. Footnote - Maria missed a $2640 collect with Secessio failing to get up !! 293.00 Forrest 238.80 Ted 402.40 Robert 230.00 Richard 0.00 Maria 664.40 Cam 105.20 Richie 63.00 John 233.00 Jack 177.00 Hesi 3 STAGS* (7th) $1019.00 2 points (x 2 Joker bonus) = 4 points 2 TURBOS (8th) $1076.00 1 point The Turbos all missed in the last although they did hang on for a bonus point for a higher aggregate, as Nekky made the final collect for the Stags who turned their 2 points into 4 with their Joker play. New addition Phil was MVP for the Turbos. 350.40 Ian 325.00 Pete 240.40 Casper 266.00 RS Dude 173.40 Roger 406.00 Phil (Alf Riston) 63.00 Alan 30.00 Sarah/Jase 191.80 Nekky 49.00 Viceroy 3 BARBARIANS (5th) $1178.80 2 points 2 MAGPIES (9th) $625.60 0 points Everyone missed in the last. The Magpies started well but ran out of steam across the ditch enabling the Barbarians, led by Man of the Match Geoff, to notch a win. Ray was the Bay side's MVP. No bonus points were earned. Hope the 'Pies can break through next week. 243.00 Cubes 98.80 Murray 244.20 Steve P 154.00 Mike C 60.00 Kay 197.40 Ray 126.00 Mark 142.40 Tracy 504.60 Mr Gee 33.00 Sharyn 4 KAURI KATS (10th) $1190.20 3 points 1 FERDIES* (6th) $729.40 0 (x 2 Joker bonus) = 0 points The Ferdies all missed again in the last as Graeme found the Geelong grinder to ovetake Maurice and earn the Kauri Kats a bonus point for a 4-1 margin. The Ferdies, apart from MVP Maurice, were out of form and blew their Joker as a result. The Finals look a long way away.... Sarah was a dominant MVP for the Kats outfit. 30.00 Rex 171.00 PJ 490.00 Sarah 171.40 Heather 289.20 Graeme 263.00 Maurice 254.00 Pam 30.00 Bryan 127.00 Sharne 96.00 Lloyd * playing Joker Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

N1MUE 1,877 Report post Posted July 4, 2015 The draw worked in our favour last week, but against us this week. Our highest scorer played the Chiefs lowest scorer and our lowest scorer came up against the Chiefs second worst score - a recipe for disaster. In only 3.3% of pairings would the Chiefs have won 4-1 (as they did). The Canes would have won the match in 56.7% of possible pairings. Swings & roundabouts .....

Peter Jenkins 2,120 Report post Posted July 4, 2015 The table after Round 6 1st 15 BLUES (7217.00) 2nd 14 CHIEFS (6904.40) 3rd 12 HURRICANES (6446.60) 4th 11 BARBARIANS* (5931.60) 5th 11 STAGS* (5788.00) -----Finals Qualification Mark-------- 6th 10 CRUSADERS (6498.80) 7th 7 KAURI KATS (6017.00) 8th 7 FERDIES* (5963.20) 9th 6 TURBOS (7016.80) 10th 4 MAGPIES* (6293.40) The Blues win over the Crusaders, which cost the losers 3 places, kept them on top while the Chiefs maintained second spot with a comprehensive win over the Hurricanes who amazingly gained a place despite the loss thanks to their two bonus points. A win for the Barbarians saw them gain a place while their victims - the Magpies - dropped down a place to the cellar. Previous occupants the Kats made up 3 places while other winners - the Joker-fuelled Stags - made up 2 spots. Defeats for the Ferdies costs them two places and the Turbos lost a place also. The top 6 look like they have sorted themselves out as the main candidates for a Finals berth. Maybe a Joker play from the Kats and Turbos can get them into the action ?

rdytdy 5,343 Report post Posted July 4, 2015 It helps when you have a bloody video ref that thinks a try can be scored by placing the ball on an opposition boot!! FFS!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
N1MUE 1,877 Report post Posted July 4, 2015 Yep that was no try, but unfortunately the Canes still weren't good enough. Didn't hold on to the ball enough and a few injuries hurt them - missed Ardie Savea, Skudder and Barrett not 100%. Was cursing Julian Savea for shelling that try but he redeemed himself with that try saving tackle. Stags were unlucky last week but got lucky this week - 60% of possible pairings would have seen the Turbos win (they seem to cop the bad luck every week). Blues won 5-0 in 80% of scenarios. Barbarians won 4-1 in 50% of pairings (3-2 in 45%). Kats a bit lucky winning 4-1; 3-2 was the most common result and in 6.7% of possible pairings the Ferdies would have won 3-2. All academic of course Looking forward to that orbital theory Hesi! Peter Jenkins 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rdytdy 5,343 Report post Posted July 4, 2015 That no try gifted the Highlanders 7 points right on half time so they went in with an 8 point lead. The margin at full time.....Highlanders win by 7 points and the video ref probably thinks he's done a great job. There has to be some accountability by these blokes. It is not the only completely idiotic decision by video refs in the competition, there has been some absolute clangers. You have to wonder what they are on. Ardie Savea was sorely missed and don't mention about Julian Sava bombing a certain try. Unbelieveable. Absolutely gutted!!
