I'd bet Nuffle matches you against each other in the first round.

I really, really hope not. Very Happy

The plus would be that frogs would be sure to make it to round 2. Wink Congrats anisdrin!

My Woodhead Wanderers take on DrDeath's Rabid Ruffians tonight at around 20.30, or that's the plan.
We don't yet have a plan about how to deal with Pebbledash though. I'll discuss with my MB tacklers if there is a way to blitz someone in the dugout. Wink

Hehe - they were obviously caught out by him staying on the pitch Smile That was a great agility game Rawlf, although your woodies were scarily bashy for my rats Shocked

Looks like all qualifier matches are finished off. Watchmen Philosophy sneaks past Tholgorond Dragons with a lucky 1-0 victory. We're on to Cincinnati...

** Milford from the main draw of the Grotty Little Tournament **

Here they are FUMBBL fans the teams that battled their way into the main draw of GLT XI

far in the distance is the sound of a “golf clap”, then the roar from the masses, “Filthy Picker Luckers!!!”

ImageManzazuu

ImageHop on Pop

ImageRun with the Pack

ImageBlack Jewels

ImageWe got Explosives

ImageENI

ImageRabid Ruffians

ImageWatchmen Philosophy

ImageMezmerizing Looks

ImageRed Corsair

ImageUgly and Dumb

ImageKeroro’s Squad

ImageExcelence of Execution

ImageUusiverikulho

ImageTeachers of the True Teaching

ImageBrutal Cherry Pickers


Well this is a nice cross section of the tier 1 “majors teams” with some Forlorn teams, hoping beyond hope and then that goblin team.

Let’s break down this field of contenders.

The Front Runners

Going in before the draw I think we can safely say the front runners to win GLT XI are: Excellence of Execution, Brutal Cherry Pickers, Uusiverikulho and Watchmen Philosphy.

All these guys bring the pain and suffering and all of them have tasted some “majors” success. As with all bashers it always comes down to those AV checks and PileOn rerolls. Otherwise they can all be “had” and run off the field.

The second Tier teams that could rise up

Teachers of the True Teaching, Black Jewels, Rabid Ruffians, ENI, Run with the Pack and Manzazuu

All these teams are going to be lurking, ready to pounce if some of the front runners start to falter and die on the side of the road to the championship.

The Forlorn Hope

Red Corsair, Keroro's Squad, Hop on Pop and Mezmerizing Looks. Can it happen, is it possible, will the golden path to the finals open up and one of them takes the bull by the horns and blows into the finals? All I have to say is they better get the golden “draw” and not spit the bit.

The shambling horde

Ugly and Dumb find themselves wandering around the main draw, no clue as were to go, no idea what time kick off is at and totally dead. At least they got a shot, right?

The after thought

We got Explosives will show up, throw bombs, chainsaw up and running and will bring the fans to their feet as they get OBLITERATED in the opening round if they draw a front runner. The bar is not raised high for these guys, just do not make the match a BYE for their first round foe and take a few heads with them.


GLT XI is going to come down to the “draw”

The way the field is set up the draw is going to be HUGE. If the 4 front runners all find themselves in the same group, well then the field is wide open for one of the Tier 2 or Forlorn teams to capitalize and get into the finals.

Those top 4 teams go 2 in the top group and 2 in the bottom group. Well then it will take some serious upsets to deny two of them their spot in the finals.

No matter how the “draw” breaks down it should be a very interesting final 16 for the GLT XI.

Nuffle has truly blessed us in the draw. Behold, the glory of playing another North American coach who resides (gasp!) in my same time zone! Hallowed be his name.

Milford from the main draw

The draw was made last night and the bracket is set, oh, MY!!!! Somebody spent a lot of gold on a voodoo witch doctor or some such the way the brackets broke down.

Forlorn has a good chance in the top bracket as only the Watchmen are lurking up there. The Winner of Mezmerizing looks and Red Corsair have a shot at making the run to the finals up top.

Down in the lower bracket Hop On Pop drew the Cherry Pickers, it will be tough but they got a shot against the slow plodding dorfs.

And of course the titanic throw down is on the slate in the opening round.

Uusiverikulho VS Excellence in Execution. That should be a titanic throw down and if history holds “form” the nurgle scumm will beat down and beat up the chaos thugs.

ENI or Manzazuu have a shot, who ever wins that match, come out of it in good shape and get the winner of the show down match all beat to hell and down a few players….you never know.

This should be a very exciting main draw in GLT XI

Whaaaaat? Where are the Rabid Ruffians, Winners of Old Teams Qualifiers 2? I've been waiting for an invite or notification to apply for the main draw - checked again yesterday - now suddenly the draw is made and someone else has sneaked in?

Breaking news from the GLT

Coach DrDeath went into the locker room this morning to check up on the lads and TOTAL CARNAGE!!!!

It seems the 4th Annual Necros decided that spot in the final 16 belonged to them so they decided to eat all the rats and suck out all their brains.

DrDeath just stood there stunned as his glorious team has been eaten and are carved up by starving, brain sucking zombies. As the wolves approached, DrDeath ran as fast as he could, screaming for NUFFLE to save him.
