Gigs Ladder Comp - Round 20
When we last caught up australianfootball.com's illustrious leader, Adam Cardosi, had huge 14-point advantage over the Footy Maths Institute. FMI was two points clear of Laurie B and Harro, while Old Blue Stager, Cookie, Elsie F and Damien L formed a fifth-place logjam.
So what's happened in the five weeks since then. The Bulldogs have gone from strength to strength, the Pies have gone cold and the Cats popped into the top eight to say "hi" briefly, before stepping back out and letting the Crows in. But that top-eight door looks like being a revolving one and there may yet be further changes to eighth place on the ladder. At the foot of the ladder, Brisbane has pulled itself off the bottom and is holding the Blues down in the wooden-spoon position for now.
And all that jockeying for position has translated to the Ladder Ladder, thusly:
ROUND 16: The gap between Adam and Footy Maths Institute narrowed to 10, with Laurie B, Harro, Old Blue Stager, Cookie and Elsie F all equal third a further six points adrift.
ROUND 17: Both Adam and Footy Maths Institute's scores drop but the gap remained at 10. Old Blue Stager moved to outright third and Cookie outright fourth. Fifth position saw some new blood, with yours truly and A Second Layer of Wrap moving up.
ROUND 18: Adam's score jumped six while Footy Maths Institute's didn't move so the gap between first and second narrowed to just four. Old Blue Stager slipped out of the top five, with Cookie moving up to third and Gigs (that's me!) to fourth. Fifth position saw more new blood with Ethel Maudie moving into prizemoney range.
ROUND 19: The top five remained the same in order but both Adam's and Footy Maths Institute's scores went up while the other three top fivers' did not, with the gap between first and fifth narrowing to just 10. Adam led FMI by four, who led Cookie by two, who led Gigs (me again!) by two who led Ethel Maudie by two! Woohoo!
Which brings us to...
ROUND 20: Adam's score has slipped back down (which is a good thing) and he has opened up a gap of eight over Footy Maths Institute. Six behind FMI are Cookie and Gigs (yep, me) and two behind those two are Old Blue Stager and Gavin T, who has slipped into the top five at just the right time of the year.
At the bottom of the ladder ladder, halfwrittentale is looking good to get her money back for finishing last, with Theo Harms the nearest threat, eight points ahead of her.
Here's the ladder ladder, with the electronic version to hit your email inboxes later tonight.
Until next week, happy laddering!
