BPL Predictions

Well according to this blogger's sources, the rankings and competition points of the 4 teams that matter in BPL should currently be:

Slamtown 28
Dojo 26
Buggers 25
Heroes 24

For those of you keeping score, that means Heroes won in their game against Bandidos, keeping their hopes for a maiden minor premiership alive. It also means Slamtown beat Dojo, placing themselves firmly in the box seat for their maiden minor premiership.

[Less related, but it also means the likes of JJ, BW, alex and Gref will be going into the BUML Div1 Grand Final still smarting from a BPL loss, and keen to re-prove themselves on a somewhat less-challenging stage. Watch out Co-mingled!]

The race is indeed wide open in the BPL, with each of the teams in with a mathematical chance (though Dojo would have to be extremely lucky with results). Heroes remain ever-hopeful, Buggers are brimming with confidence, and Slamtown are for once leading with their throws rather than their mouths (not a statement on their skills, merely on the fact that this blogger can sometimes hear the Mayor's "Eeeeeeere we go!" on Thursday nights from his home in the eastern suburbs).

Mathematically, Slamtown have the best chance - but when have simple numbers been the main decider for the Dog Cup?

This blogger is going with his heart, and tipping the not-so-new kids on the block, those Heroic men in green, to take out not only the minor premiership, but the "silverware" itself in the end.
