It was a mighty impressive debut by all three of the new boys to Hogg Premier with The Far Callers put on an almighty flex to dump the powerful Delicious at the foot of the table with a massive 226 point victory. Most of the Premier sides did well but few actually excelled so it was a rough start for @valleys07 as that poor percentage could hold him back this season. @Ron Burgundy managed to avoid most of the potholes this week and it was a great start to the season as the mighty Far Callers set sail for yet another flag.
DAISYSDUDS were also most impressive on their debut. A solid win over the reigning premier has fired a shot across the bow of the competition and @Feenix is now off to a *ahem* mediocre start to his premiership defence. Meanwhile, @wycbloodsopened up a bemusement park as he stayed true to last year's form of not being able to win matches. Bloods points vanished just when he needed them most and once again they've gone missing when there are four points on the line, much to the delight of the third newcomer to the league Chops Clots.
Perhaps one of the most significant victories of the weekend was the tight win by Richo Richo Man over Ecky's Fevolas. @Ecky barely lost a match in the minor round last year while Richo finished well outside the eight so that is a significant reversal for @CoverKing. Other winners included Captain Who back in scoring form, the reliable @Q. man, regular opening round winner Sharks, Summer of George and TEAM_@FISH who won a close one against the REBCats.
Have to say lads that this league is quite scary these days and this reporter reckons his days may be numbered at this level. The league rank is 150 which is insane. Usual ranking progression by Hogg leagues is to steadily improve so it will be interesting to see how high we can get this year. The match of the round is
DAISYSDUDS vs. Richo Richo Man, two teams who have been in awesome form so far this season. Traditionally this is the time of year to hold trades so it will be interesting to see if these two probable contenders dig deep to get the early win or take the risk and keep the powder dry.
Looks like a cracking season boyos. Good luck in round 2. (Except for Roosters
)
