FNF VI - Round 8 Rolled!

Hi Blood Bowl fans,

Round 8 of the FNF league has been completed! It was another action packed week with a season record of 25 Touch Downs scored. There were also 28 casualties from all causes - but, sadly for the crowds that filled the stadiums this week, there was just the one death. It was also the best week to date for Cabalvision coverage with all games being broadcast and available for viewing!

With just five games left in the regular season, everyone's thoughts are starting to turn to the finals  Although at least one Coach thinks there is an "unassailable group of 5" that has a lock on the four semi-final positions - don't forget that most of these higher ranked teams are composed of squishy, lightly armoured players - so there is still plenty to play for and every team has a chance to have a big impact on the season's final outcome! 

Here are Jim and Bob with their selection of some of the best highlights from this week's games. 

The calendar has just been rolled and Round 9 has begun and is, in theory, scheduled to run until late Thursday night 22 December. But, as Christmas is fast approaching, there will be plenty of flexibility in the duration of the next couple of rounds. It would be great if we could complete Round 9 before Christmas - so all coaches are strongly encouraged to contact their opponent soon as possible - and we'll see how we go :)  

Round 10 will not, obviously, begin until all the Round 9 matches have been played and will  hopefully be completed sometime in early January. I will be out of town (and away from my PC) 23 Dec - 2 Jan inclusive. 

Good luck to all,

Dave
