The battle lines are drawn, round 10 will settle it once and for all. 3 clubs all on 12 points. Match of the round 1 v 3. New South Wales Blue versus Victorian Bushrangers. Mate v Mate, State versus State. Who will come out on top. Or will those poms from Yorkshire spoil the fun?

Much credit to Surrey for their shock win over NSW that forced the closeness of the final round and avoids automatic relegation!

This week is the big week. Whomever wins in NSW and Vic will probably take it if Yorkshire lose but If nsw lose and yorkshire win then the phoenix will win but if yorkshire lose and vic win the yorkshire will finish second
oh im just so excited. u should feel my nipples

As cool as Bugs is I would prefer to see Victoria get up here and win. Unlike anyone else in WCC Victoria is based around foundation members or real life Victorian players. It would be fantastic to see them reach division one, it really would.

I'm not sure exactly of the standings but Yorkshire, Victoria and NSW are all level on the same amount of points, with Yorkshire, NSW with much better NNR.

I'm picking Yorkshire to take the title from Victoria, while Bugssy will be left to think about what went wrong...

Yes Victoria are largely Victorian players, along with that we look to continue this trend well into the future.

Can I also say, that it this week against NSW is basically a clighty modified Vic team, versus the most over paid players in the world.

In addition to that, all this talk about run-rate... put simply, if we beat nsw, and Colts do me a favour and beat those poms. Victoria are in the Div 1 next season.

Its a very interesting spectrum Victoria have. They are in their own right one of the best one day sides going, but they've never been able to get it going in four day. Quite an interesting situation could arise next season where they might find themselves in division one for one day, but division five for four day.

Yes possibly, but we have avoided religation in the 4th division of four day. For this season anyway.

In addition to this, I firmly believe Victoria are really only one good bowler away from being a competitive four day side.
