Doughboy’s Donuts! lead the A-League power rankings. The A-League has only played two games since my last power rankings prior to week six. Their last game going into the week six was on December 14th. The whole A-League had eighteen days off going into the new year with some teams not playing since November. The A-League did not change since my last power rankings due to a lack of games and those who needed to win to keep the power rankings the same doing so.
