Well done 11 Wise Men! (I'm still catching up on some missed matches.) Another thrilling New Zealand Cup final - congrats to both participants.
For whatever reason, I thought 11 Wise Men by-passed their midfield too much in the first half (passing straight from defense to striker), but they got them more involved in the second half. I'd be curious to know if the substitutions of Byers and Q were conditional or not. The Byers goal was pretty dramatic - tho he made some weird decisions in extra time (recognized the tell-tale signs of a tech week :D).
One's N-teamers Pollock and Petherick were particularly good. A couple of weeks of stamina training in the off-season might serve the team well - the squad faded some in the second half and in extra time.

Hah i was irked that i played the wrong team in the league in preparation for the final, which makes me believe that your final was far more interesting to watch =D
Im pretty sure thats not the team or tactic I put in to play Snowy tonight. Has to be a bug!
Ach i've heard about that thing before, pops up every now and again. =[
Wow. A couple of unusual results this week!!
Could have a new champ this season...

In fact it is certain =p
Had a feeling it would happen this week, but prioritised training anyway.

My Goodness...... The Jermster curse has been broken!!!!!
Even without the 11 Wise Men - Deathstrike match-up, the New Zealand cup never disappoints. Very entertaining match from a couple of teams in their ascendancy.
Thought it was a great tactical approach by N_Z. Unfortunately for them, Pollack is the kind of striker who can break down that kind of defense. Still a very nice idea.
Kudos to both for playing a compelling match, and double congrats to the winner! :)

Congrats on another win for yourself mate. How many Cup wins is that ofr you now (yes I know I could just go count, but it's the kind of thing I would expect you to remember)
Thanks. :) 7 actually. And this was one of the toughest. The final score doesn't suggest it went to extra time, but it did, and was a hard fought match.
