I think travel has had a real effect on them, all FC Western's points have come in New Plymouth. NPBHS managed a draw in Palmy against Marist. And that's it...
Probably doesn't help Rangers that out of the 10 games before the league splits they've been drawn away 6 times, as opposed to PN Marist who are at home 6 times (and one of the away games is at the same ground...)
With all the postponements for Chatham Cup / school holidays it's going to take some time to figure out where everyone sits, loads of chances for teams to climb up the table.
