Shaun commented: "On game wins, we have a clear winner, and quite impressively Kelburn 2 went through the whole season without losing more than 3 games on a day. If we were awarding points for draws, they would still likely be winners given their hoop difference. However, the other three teams all had 6 wins on the day to Kelburn 2's five when including wins via hoop difference or shootout. All in all, rather interesting when considering how we might consider winners for a competition where teams can be even on the day."
