Two season-long titles switched hands this week: Home Scores and Away Scores, both from MoSHBODS to MoSSBODS. The leads across all four metrics are now as follows:

MoSSBODS had four wagers last week, three unders with the TAB that finished 2 and 1, and one unders with Sportsbet that was a winner.
It ended then at 10 and 7 with the TAB, and at 2 and 1 with Sportsbet, for an overall 12 and 8 record.
Across all games, MoSSBODS landed 7 from 8 against the TAB and 6 from 8 against Sportsbet. That took MoSSBODS to 25 from 46 (54%) against the TAB and 26 from 46 (57%) against Sportsbet. MoSHBODS landed 5 from 9 against the TAB and Sportsbet, which took it to 22 from 46 (48%) against the TAB and 21 from 46 (46%) against Sportsbet.
