In a season of horrors for some and success stories for others the L2 Ultimate Draft league shapes up to get interesting as it draws to a close. Can RYNOs team The Bandwagon be knocked off its perch on top of the ladder? Will Frankos The Bagels make double digits in points and just who will be the top two teams destined to move into the prestigious L1 league next year?
In my first year of Ultimate draft there has been noticeably less banter and trade negotiations than I saw last year (with Bren being the usual instigator) but it has been a fun season none the less. With one game yet to play to close out this round, here are our current standings and my predictions.
1st. The Bandwagon - RYNO - Sitting pretty atop the L2 perch, RYNOs The Bandwagon have proven hard to beat all year, suffering only 5 losses for 13 wins and looking to make it 14 at the conclusion of this round. With a 4 point buffer it is hard to see the man losing his top spot ranking before seasons end.
2nd. Great Odens Ravens - Welshy - Currently sitting tied on 22 points with yours truly, the Ravens superior for and against see's Welshy currently clinging to second place. Some astute trades throughout the year offset by injuries to key personnel mean that the closing rounds will make for very interesting following to see if the man can take his battle talk and banter with Bren, Random et al to L1 next year.
3rd. Mearcats - Mearcats - After struggling through the early rounds, I have managed to make up some ground over the byes with plenty of coverage. With some players coming back into the fold (Pearce etc) and others coming good at the business end of the year (Guth, ET and Barba) the run is on to see if we can push into the top to position. Games against the top two sides The Bandwagon and Great Odens Ravens in the following two weeks will prove crucial.
4th. The Butchers - User Name - With some tough match ups over the past few rounds resulting in some close albeit crucial losses, The Butchers have slipped to 4th and yet are showing that they can make a push as of yet. Tied on 18 points with Rhinoos and Downtown Poundtown, the battle is on to see who can cement a position in the top four or higher and avoid the humiliation that is the consolation finals. A few H2H games between these three teams in the coming weeks may be the decider!
