In the second round-robin will the teams play the teams from their half of the first round-robin a second time, or are these results carried forward?
ReplyDeleteThat's a good question. As far as I can see from what's written in the conditions of contest, the second round-robin will be a complete round robin, so teams will play the teams they met in the first round-robin for a second time. There is no mention of any carry forward, I don't believe there will be one.
