Chelsea Seagulls vs. Kynlala Knights 84 - 87

This was clearly the game of the round. Before the game most wouldn't have thought so with the mighty 15-0 Knights expected to utterly wipe the floor with the 0-4 to start the season Seagulls. However since that 0-4 start few have noticed the Seagulls have been 10-1 and a totally different team. The Seagulls would never have tried a low post with their old team and now...it just might work. It was a sensational game with Chelsea winning almost the entire game but with 38 seconds to go the Knights hit the lead for the first time since 3 seconds into the half then McArthur (who had been on 4 fouls since mid way through the second quarter but never fouled again) stole the ball to seal the win.

3 Héctor Pereira Kynlala Knights 24 PTS 13 REB 15.0 rating. In a game packed with stars it is funny that the best performance comes from someone who is relatively unknown to all but the Knights accountants who have to pay his weekly wage of $160,000.

2 Jared Sherwin Chelsea Seagulls 19 PTS 11 REB 5 AST 8-11 FGS 14.0 rating. Thriving in the low post the big Aussie ex-U21 team player showed his full range of skills scoring, defending, rebounding and passing.

1 Shaun McArthur Kynlala Knights 18 PTS 4 AST 6 REB 12.5 rating. Not his best night but when the game was on the line he stepped up with an assist and a steal in the last 38 seconds when one mistake would have given the Seagulls victory.

Viral Infections vs. Da Fat Boy Slim 72 - 85

This game was completly incredible for two reasons. Dudd Duff was shut down and had just 8 points but more amazing Naker played 7 players. However the game was decided when Nakers players decided to go on a random fouling spree and both his PG and his C fouled out.

3 Jörn Bikin Da Fat Boy Slim 18 PTS 19 REB 5 BLK. While usually overshadowed tonight was Bikin time, he was in the zone on defence having more blocks than every other player in the game put together.

2 Washington Tejera Viral Infections 19 PTS 24 REB. Not only did he get his own, but he shut down Duff Duff one of the stars of the entire league. His reward? A free one way trip to Poland. I hope he likes potatoes.

1 Luigi Antonio Dessì Da Fat Boy Slim 15 PTS 14.5 rating. The Mircowave off the bench in just 16 minutes he totally stuffed the stat sheet including going 100% from the field, the 3 point line and the charity stripe.

Rampaging Marmots vs. Koopasaurus 88 - 108

After initially selling off most of his team to buy Wazza Koopasaurus has decided to buy back a few players and is competing again. The Marmots lineup looks like they were trying to get their rookies some minutes for training so has most analystists completly stumped. One thing for sure when your starter can only score 1 point in 48 minutes there are some issues somewhere.

3 Wazza Kennerley Koopasaurus 49 PTS 8 REB 12.5 rating. The $4,000,000 man showed why he is a NT rep in this one and we hear that Koopasaurus representatives have sent game tape of this match to several ABBL teams fishing for a buyer.

2 Józef Urszulewicz Rampaging Marmots 25 PTS 8 REB 12.5 rating. While some of his teammates were looking through their Pokemon cards at halftime, Josef was wondering why he was the only Camel that was rabid.

1 Alfred Rooney Koopasaurus 12 PTS 10 AST 13.5 rating. The captain was his usual consistent self the one point of stability on the team this season that is full of sheep shaggers and multimillionaire underachievers.

Round 6 MVPs (Iwen/Vios/Zyler/Yoda Style)

Rampaging Marmots vs. Zazzocalypse 99 - 121

The bottom dwellers Marmots again continued their losing steak, this time going down to their own teammate, Zazzocalypse. It was relatively close in the first two quarters before Zazz ran away with the game in the 3rd, leaving the Marmots in desperate need of a spark to close out the season positively.

3 Jorge Antonio Villarreal Zazzocalypse 36 PTS 10 REB 6 AST 9.5 Rating. Had no problem scoring against the Marmot defense, running wild hitting shots from every corner. Contributed massively on the defensive end, ending up with 10 rebounds and 4 blocks. Epic game.
2 Tonko Švorinic Zazzocalypse 21 PTS 6 AST 12.5 rating. Rounding out the domination of the guards from Zazz was the elusive PG from Croatia. Had a great night shooting efficiently and creating plays for his teammates.

1 Józef Urszulewicz Rampaging Marmots 29 PTS 7 REB 6 AST 13.5 rating. Did all he could against the guards of Zazz, but couldn't get it done alone. He must be frustrated by his teammates...

Melbourne Goldfish vs. Slam ! 87 - 95

The Goldfish walked into the Stronghold Arena knowing that they would be facing the tower that is Zoumpadellis. With the defense set to 2-3, they were ready to counter him. Unfortunately for the Calamari, and totally awesome for Team Kevin, Slam ! came through with star big big big man Zoumpadellis leading the way.

3 Fanis Zoumpadellis Slam ! 29 PTS 15 REB 15.5 rating. Totally unfair. End of story.

2 Klaudius Macko Slam ! 28 PTS 13 REB 12.5 rating. With everybody focusing on Zoumpadellis, everybody forgot about this guy, who quietly scored 28 points, 1 less than the big big man.

1 Ludovic Bay Melbourne Goldfish 25 PTS 5 REB 9.0 rating. The transfer listed guard tried his best before fouling out after playing 32 minutes.

Viral Infections vs. Maggots 116 - 94

Both these teams have been struggling in the Private League this season, stark contrast to their League performances. The Virus showed that the wheelchairs can be put away for another week, with a resounding victory over the Hamilton-less Maggots. It was later reported that Nica from the Virus required oxygen from a machine after going down in a friendly match with opposing fans, and will be out for 2 weeks. His pension will still be paid during this time.

3 Ginés Beato Viral Infections 32 PTS 19 REB 14.0 rating. Played against what seemed like a "Ghost in the Post". Easily blew by nobody, or ghost.. called Serra for his 32 points. Serra ended the game 0-7 with 0 points. Ghost in the Post.

2 Christian Brakenhoff Maggots 27 PTS 9 REB 10.5 rating. One of the healthy Maggots who had a great game, but apart from Urwin and Brakenhoff, the rest of the team took the night off.

1 Sãndel Nica Viral Infections 26 PTS 7 AST 13.5 rating. In what may be his last game in the private league (doctors say he doesn't have long to live), Nica had a typically good game, quietly scoring 26 points whilst Beato scored against shadows all night long.

Monkeybiz vs. Kynlala Knights 75 - 89

The Knights were looking to continue the domination of Team Kevin by holding down 2nd position behind Pancakes, and holding off the challenge of the best Guppy team, Monkeybiz.

3 Dimitris Patziaras Monkeybiz 36 PTS 14 REB 13.5 Rating. In a strange twist, the 3 points for best player go to the losing side this week. Patziaras was immense, keeping the scores close when the rest of the team wasn't contributing. Only 21 years young, looks like he has a good future ahead of him.

2 Héctor Pereira Kynlala Knights 16 PTS 10 REB 17.0 rating. Efficiency has become standard for the giant from Uruguay. Scoring 16 points off 9 shots in only 25 short and relaxing minutes for his $160k p/w paycheck. Easy.

1 Eugenio Dell'Asta Kynlala Knights 17 PTS 12 REB 3 AST 13.5 rating. Had a solid outing playing at Small Forward.

Pancakes with Jam and Cream vs. Da Fat Boy Slim 104 - 76
Midway through the 2nd quarter, a massive upset was looming, with fishy's favourite team Da Fat Boy Slim giving Team Kevin's Captain C-Cat a headache. Thankfully, skill prevailed and the Pancakes shot their way to victory, pulling away in the 2nd half and holding the opponents to 32 points in the 2nd Half.

3 jack Long Pancakes with Jam and Cream 22 PTS 5 AST 4 STL 15.5 rating. The old man still has it! 4/5 from downtown. This old geezer can lock away his walking stick.

2 Plínio Couto Costa Pancakes with Jam and Cream 27 PTS 5 AST 15.5 rating. CC had a poor shooting game overall but came through when it mattered most.

1 Jörn Bikin Da Fat Boy Slim 23 PTS 12 REB 12.5 rating. Did the best he could for his team when his other big men partners Duffill and Hawthorn didn't come through.

Chelsea Seagulls vs. Koopasaurus 88 - 86

Team captains for the Calamari and Sharks clash in an epic battle overnight. With the Seagulls out to prove they are ready for an ABBL birth at the expense of Koopa, it was going to be a tough night.. The Seagulls ended up prevailing despite 59 points from Australian SF Kennerley.

3 Wazza Kennerley Koopasaurus 59 PTS 11 REB 13.5 rating. Another instance where the best player was on the losing side. Wazza was absolutely immense, knocking down 23 of his 44 shots, 7-15 from 3. The only player that kept Koop in the game, and is, no doubt, the MVP of the game.

2 Jared Sherwin Chelsea Seagulls 26 PTS 15 REB 15.0 rating. Former Australian U21 player Sherwin again proved his worth, scoring 26 easy points in the paint against the struggling Koopa bigs.

1 Vallo Tammela Chelsea Seagulls 17 PTS 7 AST 12.5 rating. The Finnish player had another solid outing, proving that although he isn't a superstar, he is one of the most consistent point guards in the league.

Round 7 MVPs (Iwen/Vios/Zyler/Yoda Style)

Zazzocalypse vs. Melbourne Goldfish 98 - 86

Zazzocalypse is one of the form teams in the league at the moment while the Goldfish have been consistently inconsistent. Both teams had great defence both inside and outside and both teams rebounded well. Zazzocalypse had 13 more points from free throws and won by 12. Perhaps someone needs to be more like a fish and less like a fowl.

3 Chiu Choong Kuan Zazzocalypse 26 PTS 18 REB 4 AST 3 BLE 16.0 rating. For nearly $100,000 a week you would expect a good player and the Choo Choo train didn't disapoint steaming to the basket and derailing most of the Goldfish attempts to score inside.

2 Xie Guanzheng Melbourne Goldfish 27 PTS 8 REB 8 AST 13.0 rating. While it wasn't Xie's best shooting night he did stuff the scoresheet and nearly came away with a triple double as well as keeping his opponent to just 7 points.

1 Tonko Švorinic Zazzocalypse 21 PTS 5 REB 13.0 rating. While he scored a lot it was more his defence on the Goldfish PG Rymer who was kept to 9 points in a run and gun offence that gets Tonko over the line.

Chelsea Seagulls vs. Rampaging Marmots 108 - 80

The Seagulls were better in almost every position as the Marmots were far from rampaging, in fact only their PF So Weixiang was able to really contribute at both ends as the C was a non-factor despite the LI offence.

3 Jared Sherwin Chelsea Seagulls 22 PTS 23 REB 6 AST 14.5 rating. Not only contributed so much himself in an offence that rarely looked for him, Jared shut out $75,000 big man Dan Gardner despite the Marmots looking for him all night.

2 So Weixiang Rampaging Marmots 24 PTS 17 REB 12.0 rating. Simply the only Marmot who tried.

1 Oliver Ðuričko Chelsea Seagulls 25 PTS 12.5 rating. Got to jack up shots all night against a fairly average defence and loved it!

Viral Infections vs. Slam ! 90 - 116

Sick of playing with 5 players every week Naker decided to try playing with 4. Hard to believe but it wasn't a good idea despite the outstanding play of his lucky fan early in the game. Matched up against the lucky fan Alejandro Ascariz was able to explode for 33 points and make sure this one was blown out in the 4th despite being fairly close earlier before Naker lost his center and had to recruit a second lucky fan.

3 Fanis Zoumpadellis Slam ! 32 PTS 19 REB 5 AST 15.5 rating. A great performance anyway but when he injured Beato out of the game it was all over.

2 Júlio Peixoto Viral Infections 33 PTS 20 REB 13.5 rating. Despite the slight flaws in some of his team mates he kept it close until the 4th when Beato was injured and the whole team was put on the TL.

1 Alejandro Ascariz Slam ! 33 PTS 14 REB 8 AST 12.0 rating. At times it almost looked like he was playing against no-one, oh wait...

SplitJ can you please delete your post.

Pancakes with Jam and Cream vs. Maggots 106 - 70

The Maggots tried hard but were not in the same class as the Pancakes at all. This was the last hurrah for a very successful Maggots team that has now been sold to create a new team that can make it all the way to the ABBL and then stay there.

3 Plínio Couto Costa Pancakes with Jam and Cream 30 PTS 15.5 rating. He didn't do much else besides score and defend but when you hit every shot there aren't many rebounds and why pass?

2 Werner Efinger Pancakes with Jam and Cream 14 PTS 11 REB 14.0 rating. This could have easily been Larssen but he had more rebounds, less turnovers and a better rating. If C-Cat appeals I think he may rule in his favour.

1 Alejandro Serra Maggots 14 PTS 9 REB. While Unwin tried hard Serra's 7-8 shooting seems just a little better than Unwin's 8-34.

Da Fat Boy Slim vs. Kynlala Knights 73 - 75

One of the two matches of the round this epic and tight battle saw the Knights scrape home by a tiny margin for the second week in a row. Playing without their big man in the middle allowed Bikin and Duffill to look inside with a great deal of success despite the efforts of Dell'Asta, but it was the dismal efforts of the guards (4-24 combined) that finally doomed Slim.

3 Shaun McArthur Kynlala Knights 23 PTs 10 REB. McArthur pitched a shutout on Dessi keeping him scoreless in 37 minutes of futile play. Owned!

2 Kye Duffill Da Fat Boy Slim 20 PTS 21 REB 15.0 rating. In the battle of maybe the top two PFs in the league, not only did Duff Duff score and rebound, he playing in a 3-2 zone helped shut down the Knights innefective center.

1 Eugenio Dell'Asta Kynlala Knights 18 PTS 24 REB 13.0 rating. While he couldn't control Duff Duff, no-one could control him as he, like Duff Duff, also exploded to a double double double.

Monkey Business vs. Koopasaurus 102 - 87

The Guppies continue to impress near the top of the West and this was a big win over an ABBL team. However the Koopasaurus 2-3 zone was utterly exploited by the Biz's run and gun in which their top four scorers were their PG, SG, SF and backup SF.

3 Zoltán Bui Monkey Business 26 PTS 8 REB 14.0 rating. Bui dominated Rooney the way few in this league could last season. This great floor general led his troops to an easy victory.

2 Yannik Hohenberg Koopasaurus 54 PTS. Was seen inside the Infections oxygen tent after the game exhausted from jacking up so many shots.

1 Eduard Deltell Monkey Business 17 PTS 4 REb 13.0 rating. In just 21 minutes Deltell told everyone that he can play while getting a chance up close to watch Hohenberg dismantle Manara.

We have just received up to date scouting information on this match from Coach Monkey.

Haha....You might want to reconsider that if you knew what I knew. Deltell played at SF but I set my SF to mark the SG while the SG (Manara) was set to mark the SF. So really, Deltell was the one that got torched big time by Hohnenberg. And to compound the issue, Hohenberg was kept quiet right up until my starting SF fouled out. When Deltell came on, Hohenberg caught on fire and started the mini comeback. If anything, Deltell had more of a negative impact than positive given the points he gave up.

This is indeed highly relevant and I hope C-Cat isn't upset if I accept this appeal before it even reaches him. This is one problem with the box score, it gives no indication of who was defending whom.

So based on this last minute scouting information the One Point vote weii be changed to:

1 Marco Manara Monkey Business 24 PTS 13.5 rating. In just 42 rock solid minutes Manara did a rock solid job while cross matched against the mighty Wazza Kennerly, keeping him relativly quiet, while getting a chance up close to watch Hohenberg dismantle Deltell.

Round 8 MVPs (Iwen/Vios/Zyler/Yoda Style)

Viral Infections vs. Melbourne Goldfish 91 - 130

Unsatisfied with his experiments playing 5 players last week Naker tried 4, still unsatisfied this week he tried 3. Next season look to see him with 3 x 300k players and 2 lucky fans each week. Sadly the lucky fans gave up 18 turnovers to the Goldfish's full court press and while they actually scored more than Nakers C they didn't contribute much else.

3 Xie Guanzheng Melbourne Goldfish 31 PTS 9AST 4 REB 3 BLK 2 STE 13.0 rating. Being guarded often by a lucky fan in the zone allowed Xie to shoot an impressive 14-20 including 3-4 from 3 point zone.

2 Radosław Rymer Melbourne Goldfish 19 PTS 6 AST 3 STE. While he didn't have a wonderful shooting night he controlled the tempo in a very one sided game.

1 Júlio Peixoto Viral Infections 16 PTS 31 REB 15.0 rating. While he had 6 turnovers 31 rebounds is impressive by any measure. We have already had this debate about Michael Jordan and 4 girl guides vs an NBL team and so Naker gets his wish. Julio played brilliantly but his team was flogged by 40, 1 point.

Monkey Business vs. Rampaging Marmots 121 - 93

The second flogging of the week saw third placed Monkey Biz take on cellar dweller the Rabid Camel. Monkey won or drew every category of comparason and had more productive players at every position. Spank!

3 Shi Deguang Monkey Business 26 PTS 16 REB 10-13 FG 16.0 rating. One of the worst free throw shooters in BB history $50k Shi put up Smeltz-like numbers including an amazing rating.

2 Eduard Deltell Monkey Business 22 PTS 13.0 rating. Good shooting and efficient defence allowed Deltell to be able to tell the reporters after the game how it was him that dominated this match.

3 Billy Pin Rampaging Marmots 28 PTS 16 REB. Despite a bad match rating Billy actually held his opposites down quite well keeping the Monkey PFs to a total of 5-16 shooting for the game.

Chelsea Seagulls vs. Zazzocalypse 62 - 85

The horror weak for the Seagulls started with this match which some thought should have been quite close being dominated by Zazzocalypse from start to finish.

3 Jean-Philippe Meneau Zazzocalypse 18 PTS 5 AST 5 REB. Outstanding play by the Zazz guards took what should have been Chelsea's strength and made it their weakness. Proficient in both offence and defence JPM led the guards that won the game.

2 Jared Sherwin Chelsea Seagulls 14 PTS 18 REB 14.5 rating. Jared was surrounded by Seagulls that were thinking about chips on the beach rather than the game, but he was able to focus and kept his man to 6 points for the game.

1 Tonko Švorinic Zazzocalypse 14 PTS 14.0 rating. The other Zazzocalypse guard that was able to control this game, he didn't just run and gun he got serious at the defensive end and made nothing easy for the 'Gulls all night.

Pancakes with Jam and Cream vs. Slam ! 67 - 106

The assistant coach for the Pancakes was discovered to have been bribed by Slam ! after this match and is curently facing severe disciplinary action from C-Cat. Some players were put on the wrong bus and missed the game altogether, some were told to play in the wrong positions, the starters were backups, the backups were starters and even a $2,000 man probably only supposed to get garbage minutes in scrimmages was logging 21 minutes and by the time the dust cleared the entire team was a mess and went down by a massive 39 points.

3 Alejandro Ascariz Slam ! 24 PTS 12 REB 8 AST. Almost a triple double is very impressive despite the fact that some of it was against a man with "Weekly salary: $ 2 765".

3 Fanis Zoumpadellis Slam ! 19 PTS 12 REB 16.5 rating. Playing against a crippled 34 year old Fanny was able to do what he wanted and if not for the blowout would have had much more.

1 Maciej Kuman Pancakes with Jam and Cream 16 PTS 10 REB. While his entire team was rubbish and even PCC had an off shooting night Kuman was the one Pancake that looked like he was trying...for a brief time... once... on offence.

Kynlala Knights vs. Maggots 82 - 23

The Maggots have sold their entire team and bought 18 year old trainees. End of story.

3 Eugenio Dell'Asta Kynlala Knights. And we though the salaries of guys in the Pancakes match were bad, Dell was guarded by "Weekly salary: $ 1 622"

2 Shaun McArthur Kynlala Knights. Actually had a real player on him.

1 Duong Tôn Kynlala Knights. Kept opponent to 0-22.

Da Fat Boy Slim vs. Koopasaurus 111 - 127

Actually a real game but maybe the last one for DFBS for the season as shortly after this they sold a big chunk of their team. Meanwhile Koop is preparing for a relegation series so should have an impressive roster very soon. Koop ran a very effective full court press that resulted in a horrendous 29 turnovers for DFBS.

3 Wazza Kennerley Koopasaurus 44 PTS 8 AST 8 REB 5 STE 15.0 rating. If he had joined a winning team earlier Wazza could be the league MVP. Yet another amazing performance by one of the finest Australian players in the world.

2 Kye Duffill Da Fat Boy Slim 30 PTS 20 REB 15.0 rating. Kye even hung onto the ball fairly well. A huge night for the monster big whose $40,000 ABBL opponent scored 2 points for the night.

1 Yannik Hohenberg Koopasaurus 34 PTS 13.5 rating. Yannik was on fire including hitting 5 3 pointers to combine with Wazza for a deadly 1-2 attack.

Round 9 MVPs (Iwen/Vios/Zyler/Yoda Style)

Pancakes with Jam and Cream vs. Melbourne Goldfish 100 - 86

For a while it looked like the Pancakes were still suffering from the "mystery virus" that caused them surprisingly to lose to Slam ! last week. With only seconds to go in the 3rd qtr the Goldfish were amazingly ahead. However in the last 5 minutes of the 4th the Pancakes completly dominated and blew out a 4 point lead 83-79 to a huge 14 point winning margin scoring 17 points in 5 minutes led by PCC who had 8. The Pancakes have clutch!

3 Erinaldo Pacheco Pancakes with Jam and Cream 24 PTS 14 REB 10-15FGS 15.0 rating. While a lot of the Pancakes still had "flu like symptoms" Pacheco was in fine form scoring well and also helped foul out the Goldfish starting C in just 21 minutes.

2 Plínio Couto Costa Pancakes with Jam and Cream 27 PTS 15.0 rating. Despite having a horrible shooting night struggling against Xie and the Goldfish 3-2 zone managing just 1-9 3 pointers and a poor (by his standards) 12-31 from the field, he came through when the game was on the line and made the big shots when it mattered. Truly a superstar in this league.

1 Xie Guanzheng Melbourne Goldfish 11 PTS 8 REB 13.5 rating. Despite the game being so close for so long none of the individual Goldfish had a great night, it was more of a team defensive effort and Xie exemplified that grabbing the second most rebounds on the team and having the second best defensive rating and contributing towards keeping PCC to 12-31 and Long to 3-12.

Da Fat Boy Slim vs. Rampaging Marmots 79 - 94

Da Fat Boy Slim has joined Shark teammate Maggots in rebuilding mode and sold Yordan and many of his other good players and so the amazing has happened, the Marmots have a win! The Guppies have advised there will be a huge party to celebrate this fact next friday at zyler's house. BYO Eastern European model girlfriend.

3 Józef Urszulewicz Rampaging Marmots 45 PTS 9-14 3PTRs 13.5 rating. A dominant performance by one of the few players that have survived the Marmots recent changes with 10 big roster changes Jo has been a force of stability in an unstable franchise.

2 Kye Duffill Da Fat Boy Slim 30 PTS 18 REB 13.5 rating. Another week another great performance by the ever reliable Duff Duff who's only blemish was the 7 turnovers.

1 So Weixiang Rampaging Marmots 14 PTS 11 REB 7-9 FGS 13.0 rating. Only been with the club for a month and acquired at a bargain price, So has shown his efficiency hitting as many baskets in 9 shots as it took teammate Clune 22 shots to make.

Kynlala Knights vs. Slam ! 84 - 87

Team Kevin needs to call a doctor because their virus is spreading causing more unbeatable teams to "suprisingly" lose easy matches (to their team mates by some odd coincidence). After only winning 2 games fro the entire season Slam ! has suddenly beaten Pancakes and the Knights the two top teams in the league. I wonder if their "luck" will continue next week against mid-table Koopasaurus?

3 Fanis Zoumpadellis Slam ! 25 PTS 11 REB 17.0 rating. While 11 rebounds is disapointing a 17.0 rating is incredible and he helped keep $159 884 Kinght Héctor Pereira to 2 points for the game.

2 Shaun McArthur Kynlala Knights 37 PTS 9 REB 14.5 rating. As usual Macca had a lot of fouls (5) but as usual he didn't foul out. A great scorer and defender he needs to tell Ton (0-10) to leave the 3 point shooting to him (5-13).

1 Klaudius Macko Slam ! 20 PTS 14 REB 6 AST 2 STE 12.5 rating. Really a coin toss between him and Alejandro Ascariz but he won with the extra assists, rebounds and the 2 blocks.

Zazzocalypse vs. Viral Infections 92 - 68

I don't even know who plays for the Virus any more but this weeks 5 players featured one who fouled out early although his new C Kristijan Ognjankovski who is a human foul machine (3.6 average) didn't. This was just another case of Zazzocalypse showing what a deep and talented team she has as the playoffs begin.

3 Jean-Philippe Meneau Zazzocalypse 19 PTS 13.0 rating. Yes he scored well but keeping a player like Nica to 1-20 shooting is just sick!

2 Kristijan Ognjankovski Viral Infections 21 PTS 20 REB 17.0 rating. Sensational when he is on the court, the good new was he didn't foul out unlike in his league game where he lasted all of 18 minutes.

1 Jorge Antonio Villarreal Zazzocalypse 20 PTS 9 REB. Top scored for the Zazz and out rebounded his teams starting C.

Maggots vs. Koopasaurus 40 - 108

Koopasaurus is preparing for a tough ABBL fight, Maggots are preparing for division III. Not much to discuss here.

3 Alfred Rooney Koopasaurus 21 PTS 8 REB 15.0 rating. Displaying his old form that has rarely been seen this season the former "best PG in the Fishbowl" was his old dominant self tonight (beating up on a 6k opponent).

2 Adriano Bassi Koopasaurus 18 PTS 16 REB 6 AST 15.0 rating. Great stats but the icing on the cake was 9-10 FGs.

1 Stefano Lista Koopasaurus 13 PTS 20 REB 5 BLK 12.0 rating. 20 rebounds and 5 blocks is a man's effort...against boys.

Monkey Business vs. Chelsea Seagulls 98 - 78

(Note: The commissioner started crying when asked to prepare this report, sobbing "I thought my team was better, I coulda been a contenda, instead of a bum, which is what I am." As a result of his team being ripped apart by the prominent (medium) attack he faced he was unable to submit a match report.)

3 Yakir Elbaz Monkey Business 28 PTS 9 REB. There was a shootout between the SFs in this match and while the scores were even Yakir came away with the victory.

2 Rober Forbes Chelsea Seagulls 28 PTS 6 REB. While normal stars Oliver (2-14) and Jared (3-14) couldn't buy a basket Rober was the one effective Seagull. He was interviewed after the game but no-one could understand what he was saying.

1 Zoltán Bui Monkey Business 18 PTS 13.5 rating. With Monkey Business having their trademark "everyone performs at about the same level" (TM) results Bui stands out purely due to a few extra points and a fair FG%.

As a result of appeal the order has changed to:

3 - Elbaz
2 - Bui
1 - Forbes

Round 10 MVPs (Iwen/Vios/Zyler/Yoda Style)

Sorry about the delay. There was a misunderstanding.

Kynlala Knights vs. Melbourne Goldfish 93 - 74

This could have been the league semi-final if the Goldfish had gotten past Snuffles. However the result would have been the same as the Knights make Melbourne's strength (its outside shooting) into its weakness. With both sides achieving an impressive OD ratings - prominent (low) for the Knights and prominent (medium) for the goldfish it ended up being the big men for each team who were able to actually do some damage.

3 Héctor Pereira Kynlala Knights 24 PTS 14 REB 4 BLK 16.0 rating. While the guards had to battle against the 1-3-1 zone Heck had a free road to the basket and scored very well.

2 Shaun McArthur Kynlala Knights 18 PTS 6 REB 5 AST 14.5 rating. He got his usual 5 fouls (that is 3 games in a ow with 5 fouls but he rarely fouls out, amazing for someone who averages 3 fouls a game) but kept in shutting down the Goldfish perimeter while being the one guard in the match that could still get it done at the offensive end.

1 Don Gresham Melbourne Goldfish 18 PTS 16 REB. The forgotten Goldfish gave us a brief reminder of his former glories as his rebounding was the one bright spot for his team in a miserable performance.

Maggots vs. Rampaging Marmots 49 - 119

The Maggots having sold their entire team and just playing 18 year old trainees were simply no match for the Marmots who were rampaging and who also came good during the week with a clutch win over Steves Crocs to avoid relegation. There was a lot to celebrate in Marmot town.

3 Barry Ó Daire Rampaging Marmots 53 PTS 6 AST 12.5 rating. Irish NT player showed the Maggots a glimpse of their own fture. One day they will be this good.

2 Sam Clune Rampaging Marmots 22 PTS 9 REB. The Marmots favourite old player showed he still has what it takes to contribute and taught the 18 year olds what a veteran can do.

1 Christian Brakenhoff Maggots 23 PTS. The one "veteran" the Maggots kept scored a little in this ugly blowout.

Monkey Business vs. Zazzocalypse 84 - 93

Zazzocalypse won.

3 Jean-Philippe Meneau Zazzocalypse 25 PTS 7 REB 12.5 rating. Scored.

2 Gary Lawrance Zazzocalypse 16 PTS 12 REB 14.0 rating. Rebounded.

1 Shi Deguang Monkey Business 16 PTS 12 REB 12.5 rating. Played better than some.

More details will be provided after the appeal.
