what zak is basically saying is ... there is a lot of ifs and buts

Alot of facts for sure...ones i could not even fathom trying to work out..

amazing read up thou tells the whole story..

i dont think we can win anything but FBL this season..in my eyes thats our best hope.fcl i still see 3rd place..PRO n SS are going for it easy..

but yeah been a good challenge..they are the best teams around no one can argue there.

tbh its been a hard season no matter who wins the fcl wether it be us or it be snooker squad we know we have been in a fight this season every season its getting harder and teams are wanting to beat pros more and more .. next season I know for sure will be the hardest toughest season as I have a feeling whatever changes are made will make it a beautiful season

Inspirational words Mr Wellington

I say loyalty bonus points for any players that are in at least their 3rd season with the same team! :P

To be honest we're in a better position than SS. We both play Top Guns and Unbeatables. We have Dynamos and Underdogs, they have Pros and Ballbreakers. They'll probably pull away a little this set, but we'll gain on them next set. And we'll gain on pros in the last set, this set they might pull away slightly.

I think the main thing is, if Pros beat SS it's game over we're unlikely to gain 40 points on them and SS would have to practically whitewash Unbeatables to make up the difference. And they won't score big whatever the outcome versus pros, that's our advantage. Though I expect SS and Pros to be pulling off champion like results at this stage.

FBL is gonna take a while for the table to actually level out and teams to be able to tell where they're up to. For sure we have a chance to win if we can beat SS. But it's gonna be tough and we'll need good results.

SL is down to knockout stage, and the game call isn't gonna be of much use when all the teams will be able to beat each other and there isn't really an advantage in picking with the current crop of teams. If I would be betting the I would say a repeat of the Qualifying play offs is most likely. But who knows, it depends on a lot of things. 5 teams I see with the potential to win it. Gotta give it to SS on knockout competition though, they've been better than pros at it.

How's the training coming along mate?

Was going well mate..im alot stronger and can see alot of improvement...shape wise..but i can only cycle as of 2 weeks ago..i smashed both me hands 2weeks back...so basicaly screwed for next 4 months..

Just go running and build up your stamina, you'll need that most of all. Try wearing big backpacks and stuff like that to get your body used to the excess baggage

If we get a tight win against Professionals (unlikely) I can see you guys winning FCL.

If you guys beat Pro's, I think there'll be about 10 points between the three of us in the final standings

I do run mate 10 k every 2 days..with my sister she in army and a fitness freak...i miss my swimming thou thats an enormous help.

i have them ankle weights..but aint used them yet.

We need to pick up the points versus Top Guns. Snooker Squad are 47 points up at halfway and they have Seb and Pete yet to play. We need to match them. High 80's or a 90 and above would do nicely. Nothing too big though

Don't be too greedy zante lol

I don't think we'll get as high a score as SS, but we've shown we can score like them. We have to aim high if we want to do better than 3rd.

Greedy yes, but we need greedy scorelines
