Round 4 of the Football Queensland (FQ) E-Series First Group Stage wrapped up last night, with the next round set to finish this Sunday, 19 April.
Some fascinating patterns are starting to emerge across the tables after the first four rounds, however with plenty of First Group Stage matches still to be played, a lot can change before the top six progress to the Second Group Stage.
In the PS4 Juniors competition, players representing Gold Coast clubs are dominating many of the pools, with Gold Coast Knights and Gold Coast United participants currently topping five of the 12 South East Queensland tables after four rounds.
Bluebirds FC players meanwhile are performing well in Regional Pool A of the PS4 Juniors competition, making up three of the top four players after Round 4 of the First Group Stage.
In the Xbox Seniors competition, Brothers Townsville representatives are currently topping both regional pool tables and will no doubt look to continue this form going into Round 5 this week.
Round 4 Results:

A number of players have been excluded from the tournament after Round 4 per the FQ E-Series Competition Rules after failing to complete three consecutive matches or attempt to contact their opponent for three fixtures.
All players who have been excluded will now have all their fixtures in SportsTG recorded as a bye, including previous rounds.
What does this mean for players still participating?
All players will now record a bye for upcoming fixtures when facing an opponent who has been excluded from the tournament. For this reason, all matches previously recorded as a 3-0 win due to a forfeit of a player who has been removed from the competition will now show as a bye instead to ensure consistency across the rounds.
SportsTG has been updated accordingly, and all players can view their results and ladder standings using the instructions below.
