Recap & standings – up to July 17

Category: Season news No comments

Dundas vs Rockton on July 10th I predicted would be an important game … it ended up being a 0-0 dud.  Here are the other recent games:

49 Tue, Jul 08 Hamilton Thunder 1 Rockton Blazers 1
50 Tue, Jul 08 Hamilton Panthers 1 Wentworth FC 7
51 Wed, Jul 09 Brant County FC 0 Ancaster Arsenal 4
52 Wed, Jul 09 Hamilton Panthers 0 Hamilton Thunder 4
53 Thu, Jul 10 Waterdown Bulldogs 2 York 1
54 Thu, Jul 10 Dundas Assault 0 Rockton Blazers 0
55 Tue, Jul 15 Brant County FC 0 Wentworth FC 3
56 Tue, Jul 15 Waterdown Bulldogs 3 Ancaster Arsenal 2
57 Wed, Jul 16 Dundas Assault 2 Hamilton Thunder 1
58 Wed, Jul 16 Hamilton Panthers 1 Rockton Blazers 1
59 Thu, Jul 17 York 5 Waterdown Bulldogs 4
60 Thu, Jul 17 Ancaster Arsenal 1 Wentworth FC 2

A few big games in there, like Dundas beating Thunder and Panthers grabbing another point – this time against Rockton. York played the Bulldogs twice in a week, and showed their resilience by splitting the games.

And here are the current standings:

Team GP W L T GF GA +- Points
Waterdown Bulldogs 14 11 2 1 62 23 39 34
Wentworth FC 14 9 3 2 44 19 25 29
Hamilton Thunder 13 7 3 3 23 12 11 24
Rockton Blazers 12 4 3 5 24 20 4 17
Ancaster Arsenal 14 4 6 4 25 25 0 16
Dundas Assault 11 3 2 6 18 14 4 15
York 11 3 5 3 16 22 -6 12
Brant County FC 11 1 9 1 5 42 -37 4
Hamilton Panthers 12 1 10 1 8 48 -40 4

Bulldogs, Wentworth, and Thunder have clinched playoff spots 🙂   And there’s a really good tussle going on for fourth through seventh spot right now.

 

Looking ahead, I noticed something really interesting.

The Panthers play – in order (plus a makeup game against York somewhere) – the Dogs (#1), Wentworth (#2), Thunder (#3), Dundas (in a group of four fighting for 4th-7th) and then BCFC (who they’re trying to edge into the playoffs of course). So they’re starting at the top and working their way down the table, as it were.

BCFC’s remaining games are as interesting: they are scheduled to play Thunder, Rockton (2), Dundas, Ancaster, and York … the teams jostling for 3rd through 7th. Lots of potential to really change final playoff standings there, yet! I asked BCFC what they thought about their remaining games and received the following:
 I think that we can still put up a fight and give some teams a run.  We have lot played well as of late but think we can definitely improve.

 

 

 

 

 

The game to watch this week might be Blazers vs Assault on Wednesday?
