Todd's comments, "Round 1 saw an E vs F (E victory) and we have 2 of them here. Round 1 also saw an I vs G (still ongoing) and we have one of those here. F vs R is a new matchup for IDIV, though it appeared often in years past".

Kester's comments, "All get their first preferences, resulting in further E/R and G/T match-ups while two games will be fought between close neighbours: none closer than I/A chosen by Greg and Jon! Germany is the only power to make two outings this round".

Kester's comments, "Could this be a new ERA? Those three powers are on the field twice in this round. Amongst it all, Messrs Hucknall meet again with Richard no doubt looking to even the HC score as ER meet once again in the match. Todd, two wins already notched up, faces Steve across the narrow width of paranoia-inducing Adriatic".

Todd's comments, "7 of the 8 players chose an 'off-side' country some time in the first 4 rounds. So they get no choice about their country selection. The 8th player, Carl, gets rewarded for his patience by getting to decide who he will put up against Jim's Germany".

Kester's comments, "Three outings each for Germany, Italy and Turkey (the latter two paired twice; and once also in D1, in fact): carefully hoarded until R5, or unfortunate dregs? I think opinions may be divided"!

Kester's comments, "A sudden flock of Turkeys: the Sultans will be hoping that is only in name and not nature, though two of them face their nemesis in Italy. In saying that, R5 has two Turks at least currently doing well against the little green men. Andreas and Jon have set convention aside and drawn Austria vs France, a tricky pairing all round and interesting for the observer".

Todd's comments, "Carl has an unenviable R/E matchup to try to stay on top. Jim, currently in second place, will hope to get more than a draw out of an E/T matchup. The obligatory Ally/Kester grudge match will be I/T this year, a matchup that has been all over the map this year. And Gabriel and Brian jockey A/F in hopes of climbing into the top 2".
