Thanks for running the tournament Graham!

Not quite a spectacular result for Pupsi, but we'll do better in the 18th series! :D

Kind regards,
Jesper

It was quite a close tournament when you look at the points spread. In such circumstances, a handful of poor games can make a crucial difference. Better luck next time. 8-)

Cheers,
Graham.

Andres's right. Queen and Dirty bottomed the group.
Well predicted, Andres.

Best,
Andre's consolation prize is that because Queen isn't eligible for the next series and will drop out, Dirty will get a playoff match rather than automatic relegation. :)

I knew very well the concurrence, but actually I would have liked to be wrong :-)
