Round 3 Cup teams - 16

Post by chelsea »

16 teams are left in the cup:

Top 8 in no particular order:

Immanuel 1A
Rostrevor 1A
Sacred Heart 1A
Unley 1A
Uni White 1A
Grads Red 1A
Pembroke 1A
Windsor 3

Bottom 8 in no particular order:

Adelaide Comets 2A
Scotch 2A
Eastern Elite 2A
Rostrevor 3
Pembroke 1B
Unley 1B
Uni White 1B
Westminster 2A

Division Break Up on who is left:

1A - 7 teams
1B - 3 teams
2A - 4 teams
3 - 2 teams

Top 8 teams will want to draw someone from bottom 8 listed.

Otherwise we could see some big match ups in round 3 and with a kind draw some of the lower teams could progress while some big ones go home.

Everyone will be hoping to draw Rostrevor 3 - Lowest ranked team left in the cup.

Their inspiration is Leicester City - Anything is possible.

We will see what the draw brings!!

If I had put you in the bottom 8 you would of said that Windsor should be in the top 8.

Round 3 fixtures:

Unley 1B v Scotch 2A
Comets 2A v Grads Red 1A
Westminster 2A v Immanuel 1A
Pembroke 1B v Sacred Heart 1A
Eastern Elite 2A v Pembroke 1A
Rostrevor 1A v Uni White 1B
Uni White 1A v Rostrevor 3
Windsor 3 v Unley 1A

6 out of the 8 games have a team from my top 8 vs bottom 8. Investigation required.

Uni White / Rostrevor - Could make a deal and let their 1A sides go through while all enjoy the long weekend.

Windsor 3 v Unley 1A looks like the biggest game of the round.

Interesting how none of the 1A teams got drawn against each other.

Sounds pretty corrupt to me.

Nothing to explain. Wasnt at the draw. It is interesting that no 1A teams got drawn against each other but that is the luck of the draw.

If all the 1A teams get through then the quater finals will be brilliant.

All the 1A teams should progress with little fear EXCEPT Unley...
Unley 1A have really struggled this season and no championship points after 7 rounds will be seen as a disaster for them....
As for a corrupt draw (and I know it was tongue in cheek), I heard Qatar have won the rights to host the finals of the CSL cup so nothing untoward ;)

And finally, WIndsor should be in the bottom half of the draw.... not convinced but I could agree that they should be in Div 1A just to stir and over stirred pot ;)

Windsor finally suffered a league defeat on the weekend (resting players for the cup round?), but Unley 1A are still having a miserable time. Hard to predict what will happen in that game but Windsor may be thankful to be playing Unley 1A instead of Unley 1B by the looks of things!

Good luck to everyone in the cup.

Depends how many players WG have suspended on the day ;)
Unley are really struggling this season in Div 1A but if WG turn up with 3 players suspended it could be game on....
They can always replay it if they don't win I suppose!!

My tips for Cup Round 3:

Home v Away ------> Tips
Rostrevor (1A) v Uni White (1B) -------------> Rostrevor (1A)
Eastern Elite (2A) v Pembroke (1A) --------> Pembroke (1A)
Pembroke (1B) v Sacred Heart (1A) --------> Sacred Heart (1A)
Unley (1B) v Scotch (2A) ----------------------> Unley (1B)
Adelaide Comets (2A) v Grads Red (1A) ---> Grads Red (1A)
Westminster (2A) v Immanuel (1A) --------> Immanuel (1A) – this will be a tight contest
Windsor Gdns (3) v Unley (1A) -------------> Unley (1A)
Uni White (1A) v Rostrevor (3) --------------> Uni White (1A)

It has been a very tough start for Unley to say the least. But I will be backing the Rangers regardless of the odds and if they’re playing for premiership, promotion, cup or fighting their way out of relegation – I’m sure everyone would do the same for their club.

Good luck to all teams still in the Cup.
