Grand Final Thread!

I'd say I'm in some serious trouble :/

Can anyone acknowledge the irony... hahaha

Ele supported the Eagles. But sadly, when it mattered, the Eagles didn't support him  :P

Yeah, he needs to stop resting players before finals... At least he got over the 100 point mark - but still disappointing considering he was on 97 at HT

On its face, it looks like Jukes has won it

But scores still need to be counted because it looked really close (Pridda & the McGovern injury may have let Ele down)

[Jukes]

San Francisco Grizzlies 20.7.127 defeated Boston Terriers 20.5.125
(Real: 1911 vs 1881)

And so the best team all year has taken it out - big surprise. That makes it 17 wins, the last 14 being consecutive, for just 1 loss for the team from the Bay, winning all four clashes against arch-rivals Boston, who finish the season with 7 losses compared to 12 wins. Although SF weren't as consistently-awesome as they have been recently, with 4 scores below 80 coming from their starting 18, they made up for it with a host of key contributors. Pendlebury "lead" the way (lead being used loosely - if he was named captain instead of Goldstein, Boston would be champions) for Boston and won the game's MVP award, but was let down by many low scores, such as Wood, Dal Santo, Rich (subbed off), McGovern (subbed on), and LeCras, who all scored below 70. But the real villain for the men from Massachusetts may have been Ross Lyon, who subbed off gun forward Matthew Pavlich in the third quarter, costing him the chance to scrape together at least another 30 points. But, the SF score would've been higher if Stefan Martin wasn't ripped off in SC terms - but they can thank their lucky stars that Champion Data didn't cheat Goldstein's score up like they usually do! Jack Viney's late heroics were instrumental for the Grizzlies, but obviously Brent Stanton's awesome effort was just as great.

And just one final sucked in to all coaches who doubted us!

Best
San Francisco: Viney, Miles, Betts, Deledio, Douglas, Kolodjashnij, Stanton, Shaw, Jack
Boston: Pendlebury, Neale, Pavlich, Wallis, Dahlhaus, Sheed, Barlow, Laird, Robinson, Howe
Scott Pendlebury wins Americas Bowl MVP

Really I think the blame should be attributed to Pridda. Needed to match Lids and fell short (was beaten in the match-up with Scott Thompson today quite badly - Sheed was the only Eagle mid that held his own and he is only a 2nd year player)

Pav could have equalised the scores if he stayed on, but I think Pridda really is the one to blame

Classic Ross

Clarkson did similar with Isaac Smith - I think it's a loophole to the resting rules (Sam Mitchell was a late withdrawal - therefore not technically 'rested').

& by doing this in the second last round, as opposed to next week, it doesn't draw attention to the practice.
