The title race - How many points needed to win?

This year's title race is bubbling up nicely with the entire top half of the table within ten points of the pace-setting Artisans.

Looking back over the last ten years, the league has been won with between 55 and 69 points. The average number of points to win a 30 game season is around 63-64*. I'm not sure any team will reach those heights this season but what do you think?

Do you have a number in mind that you think will win the league? The Cheese Makers and Boston Rock will have to win ten out of their last 11 to have a chance by my reckoning but are the rest of the top half still in the race?

If you need a helping hand working it out take a look at the WSFFL fixture list to see who has still to play who. And if you're really bored here's the Premier League fixture list so you guess what our results might be.

The comments box is below - I look forward to hearing from you.

I reckon any team gaining 60 points this season would be very disappointed, not to win it. However, I think it may be won with as few as 57.
