The defending champions, Guelfi Firenze, managed to return to the field with a strong victory against Giaguari Torino, who held firm for a half before succumbing 46-21.

Week 3 Power Rankings for the D1 Élite
1. Black Panthers - Thonon-les-bains Flash 3-0
In what was, overall, a very solid and well-played game, they gave the Météores almost nothing to work with and showed a really convincing side. There were still a few uncharacteristic errors (ATH Bafdile putting the ball on the ground on a punt return, for example) that didn’t end up costing much. The conditions clearly played a part, with the bad weather making execution tricky for everyone. But it’s still the kind of detail t

Superserien Week 11 Power Rankings
1A. Carlstad Crusaders (-)
With a dominant 49-0 victory, the Crusaders have sent the Limhamn Griffins into the offseason. The reigning champions seem to only have gotten stronger over the course of the season and will now face the Örebro Black Knights for the #1 seed in the playoffs. But careful! A loss and a Tyresö win could mean a drop all the way to #3 and, in turn, losing precious home field advantage.

WTF is going on in Spain?!
This is the most competitive season the LNFA has seen in decades, marked by the first loss of Las Rozas Black Demons in 2 years, who has recently fell against the Osos de Rivas.
After 9 weeks and 35 games played, we are in the midst of the LNFA season. With only one regular season week left, it’s safe to say that, at least this year, the Spanish league has turned into one of the most entertaining competitions in Europe.

Does the NFL Have a Development Problem?
For several seasons now, a growing murmur has echoed through the corridors of the National Football League.
