WELCOME TO THE PLAYOFFS!!!!!!!!!!!!Its that time of the season for the training league coaches! The regular season is over and the post-season tournament has begun!
(1.) Fightin Fairies v. Stumpy Surgeons (8.)
The first seeded elves will look to continue their impressive run against the eighth seeded dwarves. The elves have to be confident going into this game after winning their last seven matches, including a 2-1 victory over the dwarves in week 5. The dwarves are not discouraged heading into this match-up despite sneaking into the playoffs by winning their final two games of the regular season. Who will exert their dominance on the pitch and extend their win streak in this first round match-up? Can Coach Otherplayers get his first post-season victory with the high-flying elves, or will Coach Remuthra's dwarves barrel through the forest on their way to the second round? We'll never know until the final whistle is blown in this exciting encounter!
(2.) SLAYA'S SVENS v. landing party (7.)
Its time for a Norse bowl folks!! Both teams will be looking to regain their top form in this first round match-up. The SVENS started their season with an impeccable 7-0 record only to lose their final two playoff games and slip down to the second seed while the the landing party haven't won a match since week five! The SVENS have to be going in confident after defeating the landing party 3-0 in week three. The landing party won't go down easily though. They deserve to be here and are coming in with everything to prove and nothing to lose. Will the play-off experience and titles of Coach THE_SLAYA lead his SVENS one game closer to a second training league tournament title in three seasons, or will first-time Coach Aslandus pull off the upset and gain his first Bay12 play-off victory? We'll find out soon enough in this first ever Norse bowl!!
(3.) Monk's Mutineers v. The Jolly Waaaaagh!abonds (6.)
The third seeded vampires will look to drain the blood of the sixth seeded orcs in this brutal match-up. The orcs are also out for blood (although they'll probably leave it on the pitch rather than lap it up and take it with them) after a narrow 1-0 defeat to the vampires in week 8. The vampires have been in impressive form with only one loss since the opening game, including a victory over the first seeded elves, and will look to continue their run into the next round. The orcs have stumbled into the play-offs going winless in their final three matches and hope to right the ship before its too late. Will the vampires assert their dominance or can the break through their hypnotic stares and advance to the second round? Let's find out in this exciting orc-vampire match-up!!
(4.) Cript's Clobbers v The Slow March of Death (5.)
This is anybody's game with only two points separating the fourth seeded chaos and fifth seeded undead at the end of the regular season. The chaos have been on a roll lately with zero losses in their last five matches and hope to continue their hot-streak through the play-offs. The undead are looking to regain their early season form where they won three of their first four matches, including a 1-0 victory over the chaos team. With so little separating these two teams and coaches, its impossible to pick a winner for this sure-to-be exciting match-up! Will the Chaos pull through and advance to the second round or will the undead march over the chaos to their next opponent? Either way it'll be an exciting match for everyone!!
PS. There is no official time limit on these matches but please play them ASAP. The sooner the matches are played, the sooner a winner is crowned and the sooner the next season can begin! Let me know if there are any scheduling difficulties.
