The Roughnecks were by far the better team last night - Richards kept the Stealth close most of the night - if he gets a clean look at a shot he saves it.
The Riggers are 2-2 - same as last year despite the fact that Curtis Dickson has had a very slow start. If he gets going - the offense will start to pile up big totals. I think the defense is still adjusting to the reduced roster - their system is very active and requires more running than other systems. I think they are making adjustments to allow the team not to get gassed - but it is taking some time to get used to it. Mike Carnegie did a fantastic job on Rhys Duch last night though.
There is more depth than ever in the league though - so I think we will see most teams hover around .500 most of the season - there just isn't much separating any of the teams.
It really is a great sport - if you are already into it - bring a friend or two to the next game and get them hooked too.
