Hmmm... all those WIL teams look strong (jeez, how can teams have that high wins to losses ratio, mine is barely positive...!? (ah, maybe they are coached by people who know what they are doing...)).
Could we ask a reshuffle for some weaker opponents (if they have any)?

Is this because I would have pushed you out of a slot? |

Haha. It is a genuine opinion of the nature of random draw knock-out tournaments.
Keep in mind that my 44 points was made in the only TWO seasons I was eligible for prem, given I parked the first season, was force-relegated to conference in the second, had the tourney in the third. |

Keep in mind that you didn't directly answer the question DDS  |

On the URN topic though, I'm really pumped to watch these games!
Hopefully the scheduler is used by everyone and the crowd/speccing turn-out is strong.
Good luck to the SWL coaches competing!!! |

Any vacancies for next season? I was in the SWL a long time ago (looking at my team sheet, over a decade ago... yikes), and it's pretty amazing to see it's still going strong. The re-release has renewed my interest in Blood Bowl, but I'm a little rusty... |

I would say no to GooseIAm. Seems to be too good player and plays (or played) Chaos Dwarves.
However, the long brake and promise of being rusty...

Ps. this is sarcasm. I am just not very good at it so I need to make sure at the end of mails like this that it was sarcasm I was aiming at. Anyways, I hope you come onboard and I can tell you that elves ( particularly wooden ones)are the best if you rerolling new team. |

There are always vacancies. Pop into SWL chat. There may even be the odd coach still there who you've played against before.
Welcome back  |

What ramchop said. Come in say hi, resurrect (if allowed) your old team, or roll up and new one after sending your wishlist of 12 teams to Tomay for approval. I think the blooding of new teams starts in early January and of course, come say hi to us in the SWL irc channel for FUMBBL  |
