I offer you a "revenge" game via a friendly, just to see who would have won eventually...


Of course Sir I graciously accept, In my defense I've been fighting the flu & I guess I was so into writing that write up I simply overlooked the details, that's on me & you deserve to be AC's rep in the Bowl game.

Season 58 has been extremely quiet in the Galaxy forum so we'll at least have 1
entry.

Season 58 Divisional Playoffs

These aren't meant to be predictions but rather observations & comparisons. But first I must give the Devil Bats & the Triangles a shout out for stunning upset Wildcard wins. Leadhills & Tramandai are no easy outs but very solid teams. 'Any given game day'

Bretzfeld Bandits (14-2) Vs Bopfingen Redskinz (14-2)
The Bandits Offense averages 46.6 pts per game & the defense allows an average of 10 per game.
The Redskinz O avg. is 49 per game & the D allowed 8.6 per game.
The O vs D of each team gives an avg of 27.6 for the Bandits & a 29.5 for the Redskinz.
The Bandits Overall rating is 75.3, a 77.4 for the Skinz.
Bretzfelds Managers tactical talent rated 'Ok', they are about a 2:1 Pass offense. They spread the ball around amazing equal to ALL their receivers. They have a very good rushing average despite a less than stellar O-Line (the best rated O-Linemen is only 72.9 blocking success rate !). Their turnover ratio is 0.7 per game
Bopfingens tactical talent rated 'Down'. The Skinz run at almost a 2:1 ratio using mainly 2 backs. The Redskins have a turnover rate of 1.3 pre game.
Summary: Score averages-Skinz +1.9, Overall-Skins +2.1, Managers tactical talent-Bandits +1, Turnover ratio-Bandits +.6
Who is likely to win: Bandits 1.6, Skinz 4 = Skinz 2.4
This should be an outstanding close game.

Dayton Triangles (10-6) Vs Free Agent Mascots (16-0)
The Triangles offensive avg is 38.1 & they allow 16.6 per game. The Mascots O avg is 54.9 & allow 7.06.
The O vs D avg for the Triangles is 22.58, for the Mascots it's 35.75.
The Overalls are Triangles 68.3 & the Mascots 85.6
Triangles Managers tactical talent is 'Ok'. They lean to the run side of offense & have a poor offense line.
Mascots tactical talent is rated as 'Average'. They are heavy pass at nearly a 5 pass to every 1 run but they have an high run average the few times they do run. They possess an excellent O-Line.
Triangles turn over ratio is 1.88 per game & the Mascots an outstanding 0.37 turnovers per game.
Summary: Score average: Mascotts-(a whopping)+13.17, Overall-Mascots +17.3, Managers tactical talent-Mascots +1
,Turnover Ratio-Mascots +1.51.
Who is likely to win: Triangles 0, Mascots 32.98 = Mascots in a walk 32.98
Chances are the Mascots will be the clock striking midnight for the Cinderella Triangles.

Deimon Devil Bats (13-3) Vs Wrexham Exiles (15-1)
The Devil Bats offensive and defensive averages are 44.1 & 9.68 while the Exiles come in at 52.3 & 7.18.The O vs D score averages are the Bats at 25.64 and the Exiles at 30.99.
The Overall rating are as follows, the Devil Bats 67.3 & the Exiles 78.6.
Managers tactical talent rating has the Devil Bats at 'Ok' and the Bats are lean run play callers. The Exiles tactical talent are at 'Poor' also being a lean run team with a very good O-Line. Turnover ratios has the Bats at a 1.3 per game & the Exiles at 1.1 a game.
Summary: Score average-Exiles +5.35, Overall-Exiles +11.3, Managers tactical talent-Devil Bats +1, Turnovers-Exiles +0.1.
Who is likely to win: Devil Bats 1, Exiles 16.75 = Exiles 15.75
Like the Triangles you can't imagine the Devil Bats slipping past the Exiles.

Rockford River Rats (14-2) Vs Alaskan Fur Trappers (16-0)
Offensive & defensive averages first, The River Rats O & D averages 47.8 & 11. The Fur Trappers O/D as follows 48.6 & 3.25. The O vs D numbers are: River Rats 25.5 & the Trappers 29.8.

Managers tactical talent ratings are as follows, for the Rats it's 'Ok. The Rats are a 2 to 1 passing team with a less than average O-Line.
The Trappers come in with a 'superb' tactical talent rating. The Alaskans are a run heavy playbook, slightly under 2:1 working with an above average offensive line.
Turnover ratios are the same with The Rats & the Trappers at .88 TO per game.
Summary: Score avg-Trappers +4.3 Overall-Trappers+1.6 Managers tactical talent-Trappers +1 Turnover ratio-Tied
Who is likely to win: Rats 0.5, Trappers 7.4 = Trappers 6.9

In the end these numbers are just stating the obvious & don't mean much. Any given game day, Good Luck to everyone

Many thanks for the excellent preview.

Just to add to the programme notes, here are the roster wage costs and average ages for each of the 8 teams (in ELO order):

Mascots - AGE 25.6 PLAYER WAGES $3.7m COACHES $2.0m
Bandits - AGE 25.1 PLAYER WAGES $5.5m COACHES $1.5m
Exiles - AGE 24.0 PLAYER WAGES $4.1m COACHES $1.9m
Trappers - AGE 25.7 PLAYER WAGES $6.9m COACHES $1.6m
Rats AGE - 26.6 PLAYER WAGES $8.6m COACHES $1.2m
Bats AGE - 23.8 PLAYER WAGES $6.0m COACHES $0m
Skinz AGE - 26.0 PLAYER WAGES $7.0m COACHES $0.7m
Triangles AGE - 24.2 PLAYER WAGES $3.5m COACHES $0.6m

These figures say nothing about the playing strength of each team, but it's amazing that the Mascots have an Elite-calibre roster with such a low wage bill.

Good luck to everyone!

Just goes to show 'any given game day'
Somebody once posted that a sure way to lose in the playoffs was to go 16-0 in the regular season. Sounded far fetched to me then, now ... maybe they were right.

What is going on with the Triangles !?

I have to give the River Rats a bunch of praise, a furious 4th quarter comeback sends them to the Conference Championship game. The Rats & Trappers have played some crazy games,
The Bandits massacred the Redskinz, game was over at half time.
The Exiles disposed of the Bats, also over at half time.
The absolute shocker game was the Triangles man handling the Mascots. I would have never ... just wow.

Best of luck to the final 4

Rats & Trappers - amazing game. Triangles - a really amazing win.

Hopefully, we’ll see another two close games for the Conference Championships.
