Season 53 (04.05.14/31.05.14)

[Pete Cresswell]

Rugby's Better had a solid 3-0 league win this morning to remain unbeaten. Unfortunately Ha FC (1st in the league) beat Ha FC (3rd in the league) to stay 6 points ahead, which is likely insurmountable with 2 rounds left, though should he lose twice in the last 2 rounds I should pass him on goal difference (it's unlikely though). I lead the other Ha by 4 points, so a win or draw against him tomorrow will be enough to secure 2nd. Sadly after 4 consecutive seasons of league wins it looks like 2nd best this season.

We still have a CL final to look forward to tomorrow, in a re-match against the opponent who beat Rugby's Better in the CL final 2 seasons ago.

And this morning the team that knocked us out of the Cup won the Cup final in a penalty shootout after a thrilling 4-all draw.

Lastly, our AML/AMC Nick Delany has 30 league goals for the season, and looks good to top the league for the 2nd consecutive season as he's 7 goals clear of 2nd. He is also topping the league ratings chart, averaging 8.04 per match over 24 games. Not bad considering he didn't earn his 5th star until mid-season.
