Masters results

[edit]

Main article: 2007 Australian Super 7s Round 4

The archived tournament results establish the following final-round placings. These are separate from the season standings.[2]

Place Professional Semi-Professional Amateur
1 Sydney SWAT Platinum Kindred
2 Menace Kronik EA Misfits
3 Sydney X-Fighters A9X Distortion
4 East Coast Raiderz Apocalypse Shenanigans
5 Strategic Sports Apparition The Business
6 Sydney Shock Rage City Uprising
7 Malicious Intent Bitchin Vortex
8 — Marksmen Switchblade
9 — West Coast Hate —
10 — Blitzkrieg —
11 — Venom —
12 — High Rollers —
13 — Team Solid —

Team Solid appears in the Masters finishing order but has no entry in the published season rankings. The Masters results label the Amateur division “Div 1”. Sydney Shock is shortened to Shock in the season rankings.[1][2]

Records and source discrepancies

[edit]

The archived official results page retains the four-round standings beneath a misleading “Team Rankings for 2008” heading. These figures match the current official website's explicitly labelled 2007 standings. The separate two-round results at the top of the archived page concern 2008.[1][2]

Team-name spellings vary between the records. The archived page uses West Coast Hate and The Business, whereas the current historical table uses “Wet Coast Hate” and “The Buisness”. Casual Strokers appears as “Casual Storkers” in the archive. Spellings of Blitzkrieg and Adrenaline Freaks also vary.[1][2]
