Also, their reputation as one of the cleanest teams in the world, serves them well, because judges are less inclined to call penalties...... even when one should be called

Nick

The point surely is, in the process of getting that ten point spread you mentioned, they didn't incur any penalties

As for them not being penalised when you imply they should have done, it would seem to me, cynicism is alive and well and living in the land of Brockdorf
Good to see ya there Nick !
Peace

correct me if I'm wrong but ontop of the way they played the Legion had something like zero penalties!!

Never saw them in the sin bin either.

Best bit was the player who ran back for a new hopper with 20secs to go against Joy in the final, got back with about 1sec to spare, got ready and carried on playing like nothing had happened, even got the flag if i believe..

They were just utterly impressive, simply a machine, can't wait for a match up against Dynasty at PSP open X

There was talk of an Exhibition day at the EXL events between some of the EXL teams and some of the travelling NXL teams. Obviuosly at Paris this was not an option, but already booked in for Amsterdam are Dynasty, Miami Effect and Trauma. Maybe there will be an exhibition day on the thursday afternoon. The field layout is already out now, for the Amstedam. So field walking will be a short checking procedure. Maybe there could be 3 matches Dynasty vs Legion. Miami vs Joy. Trauma vs Ton Ton Top 3 EXL teams from Paris vs the three yanks? Starting at 1pm 2.30pm and 4pm?

Officially? where? just seen Colin's 2+2 presumption, which i admit might not be a bad idea, although the NXL'ers will have already played it so gives them a big advantage

Sam, I would be interested to see if you maintain your assertion that the RL would get their ass spanked against the likes of the top Yank XBallers when they play them at XBall....I got five quid in me pocket that says 'no'

 

[acsik]

I put a 50 on it mate that they dont get spanked along Robbo's 5.


I guess the yanks are up for a suprise against RL. It will be US vs Mother Russia all again! All hail the 80's!



cheers

Either we all get a crack at exibition games - or nobody does...... in my oppinion !

Nick

For once we 100% agree !

actually i want in on this thread...
The Russians IMHO will beat the Yanks in X-ball, IF THE REFFING IS FAIR.
I've seen the Legion get butt fu£kked too many times by the refs when playing Yank teams to say that they will win.

I fear what will happen to the Russians if they go the World cup for the x-ball finals, if the judges are yank judges. There is no way that the American Judges will ever let the Russians beat an american team.

In a fair unbiased match up i believe the russians will beat the pulp out of the yank teams.

If they get a fair unbiased set of refs, they have very good odds, if they don't then there's really no point in playing is there?
