* Controller's remark (At the time of the Round 6 draw): There is still one fifth round game to come in (Jeje v Feather). Rather than default both players I have allowed them an extra week to play their game but I have no intention of holding back the draw for this round. Therefore, for the purposes of the draw only, I have assumed both players earned half a point from their match.
