Last week was another bad week for Steve and I to fit in the podcast, as I came down with COVID and he's work was crazy ... but that was last week!! This week we take a look at the wash-up of the Mid Season Draft some of the things that took us by surprise. The Champions League is in full swing and the STANDA Cup kicks off.

It's upon us ... Mid-Season Draft week. Quite a few teams having been hanging out for this period as they hope for the season changer that will catapult them straight up the ladder. In terms of who to pick up, we'll leave that for you to decide but Steve has had a look at the teams and has made a prediction on the priorities for the teams. We also take a look at the latest round - as always.

With only a couple of weeks to the mid-season draft each win or loss has a dramatic effect on the draft order, this week the Brawlers felt the force of the Convicts as they stay undefeated in the Super League. Natas had a tight game with the Blue Flames but continue the march towards breaking the longest winning streak.

Remember the days where getting over 200 happened every 5 years!! Nexus smashed the highest AFR score this week with 226, however it was the Blue Flames and Titans score that took all the headlines - possibly one of the greatest AFR games in history. With only a couple of weeks until the mid season draft the order seems to be changing each week.

Round 5 is completed and a couple of things are starting to stand out .. there is a massive gap between the have and have nots. There are a couple of teams struggling to get their season off to the start they were wanting and some others that seem to make their own luck. Cam is away so we don’t think there will be a Judge for a couple of weeks - so it’s up to Steve and I to give a critique on peoples teams.

Another record-breaking round, as Natas break last week’s record with a score of 214, perhaps it's the Convicts that are stealing the show as they are 4-0 after defeating The Thylacines in a tough high scoring game. Where to for the Phamtoms as they are the only team without a win across the two leagues.

The Original League looks to be the season of Natas .. however they look like they might have some competition from the Blue Flames, after putting up over 200 on the weekend could Round 7 see the end of the Natas run for the longest winning record. Meanwhile last years premiers in the Super League are currently 0-3.

We're only two rounds into the new season but the ladder is already looking like the top five has been set. Needless to say we know Cam is glad Naomi is in the Super League as Natas are looking almost unstoppable in the Original League. The Brawlers are requesting for the season to be called now, yeah nah.
