Another week in the books guys - quite a bit of movement on the rankings front. This season is really heating up as we head towards the final few games

1 (1) Woodridge Lumberjacks (9-2)
Not really much to say about Woodridge this week as they predictably beat Richmond.

2 (2) Paris Philarmonic (9-2)
This was the test for Paris that we'd been waiiting for and they passed it, looking comfortable in victory against the Warriors. We could very well go into week 15 with Woodridge and Paris battling for the number one seed in the playoffs.

3 (4) Toledo Swords (7-4)
The Swords move up a place after beating a struggling Berlin team with yet another impressive rushing performance, gaining over 200 yards on the ground. Time will tell whether or not they can keep their position towards the top of the rankings as their schedule is more difficult than some of the other teams around them and their season could easily turn from good to bad.

4 (3) Wembley Warriors (7-4)
The Warriors will be disappointed with their performance against Paris. They'll be looking for victory against FTA next week, a team they've beaten four seasons in a row.

5 (5) London Monarchs (7-4)
The Monarchs move to 7-4 with an easy victory over Blackpool. They'll now focus on their next game matchup against the Mercs, my week 12 Game of the Week.

6 (8) E-City Mercenaries (7-4)
E-City took full advantage of Valhalla's recent poor form, winning a tightly contested game 22-16. Next up, the Monarchs

7 (7) Chicago Rocks (6-5)
Chicago defeated Stuttgart this week after an explosive 4th quarter in which the teams combined for 38 points, 24 of which were scored by Chicago. The Rocks don't have an easy run-in as we head into the final 5 games of the season and could find themselves sliding down the rankings.

8 (6) Berlin Blitzkrieg (6-5)
They've now lost 3 in a row but I still think they should make the playoffs by winning at least 3 of their remaining 5.

9 (11) Aberdeen Wrecking Crew (6-5)
Almost half of their games this season have been decided by 6 points or less and Aberdeen came on top this week against FTA with another dominating performance from Jimmy Johnston who came up with 8 sacks.

10 (10) Fightin' Texas Aggies (5-6)
Similarly to AWC, the Aggies have been involved in 6 games that have been decided by less than a TD - unfortunately for them they didn't come out on top for the 4th time out of those 6 games.

11 (13) Carthage Army Of Darkness (4-7)
Some people might say that I've ranked Carthage too high but 2 wins in a row against Berlin and Lake Charles propels them into 11th spot. I expect them to move back down when they surely won't upset Paris next week but for now they can enjoy themselves.

12 (9) Lake Charles Who Dats (5-6)
The Who Dats are the second team in as many weeks to be upset by Carthage. Looking at their schedule, their season doesn't look completely over but they're going to have to make a big effort to make the playoffs.

13 (12) Valhalla Vikings (5-6)
The Vikings have now lost 6 of their last 8 games and things don't get any easier quite just yet. They have two cupcake games to end their season but they have to get something out of their next three games or their season is over I'm afraid.

14 (14) Stuttgart Nighthawks (5-6)
Stuttgart hung with Chicago for 3 quarters but couldn't prevent their offense from breaking out in the 4th quarter. They'll hope to heap further misery on Berlin in their next matchup.

15 (15) Blackpool Mountain Lions (0-11)
Blackpool continues to regress after the improvements made earlier in the season. They're now playing exactly like an 0-11 team should.

16 (16) Richmond Renegades (0-11)
Richmond manages to score more points on Woodridge than AWC, Carthage, Toledo, Blackpool and the Mercs. Got to think of the positives folks...
