WXV Preliminary Finals: Destroyers v Reindeers, Saints v Suns

[Hellopplz]

Parisian Nice Lyon Reindeers

D: C. Enright, M. Williams, N.Malceski, M. Watson
M: M. Priddis (CC), N. Jones, D. Rich, T. Sheridan
R: M. Lobbe
F: C. Wingard (CC), J. Westhoff, C. Rioli, T. Lynch
I:  D.Swan, J. Laverde

E: F. Ray, J. Griffin, L. McPharlin

IN: M. Watson, M. Lobbe, D. Rich
OUT: L. Hodge, T. Campbell, F. Ray

Well, not exactly the team we'd like to field against the #1 team in the comp, but lets give it our all ;D. Hodge a big out, top defender for us all season, went and attacked his own teammate, so disciplinary actions had to be taken. In comes a player we rate highly at the Reindeers in Matthew Watson. Watch him go berzerk against the Giants and kick 7 goals. Lobbe also a nice inclusion for Campbell, who has been out of form, so at least we have some ruckman playing. Rich a nice in though to help out midfield.

Marseilles Kings (so far)
J. Bews, L. McPharlin, F. Ray, J. Garlett, J. Griffin, C. McKenna

Not many there and going to be a tough one to win, unless the defence is on point like it has been all season. Conor McKenna making his debut for the reserves as well :D.

[Boomz]

Def: Ibbotson, Henderson, Johannisen, Yarran
Mid: Jack, Miles, Burgoyne, Cunningham
Ruck: Smith
Fwd: Dahlhaus, Motlop, Cripps, Lloyd
IC: Carlisle, Suckling

Reserves: J. Merrett, Dempsey, Gleeson, Suban, Young, Cameron, Kennedy, Corr, Dawson

Should be about right.

[Holz]

got some great signs on the bench too, I can see big things for the following 4 guys;

Matthew Scharenberg
Josh Walker
Oscar McDonald
Jason Holmes

[meow meow]

Sam Mitchell out. We're flowered.

[Holz]

Im not sure whats more suprising.

3 coaches thinking PNL can win or 3 other coaches actually going for Dublin.

probably the latter.

thats going to be a tough team to beat next week. Very scared of Rocky, there was only one team I didnt want him to go to and that was the Suns.

[Memphistopheles]

Interesting selection JROO.

McIntosh over Hurn against the Crows who don't tag?

You're a braver man than I...

[Holz]

Selwood just does whatever is needed to win. Duck, play for frees and now with Swan looking to go huge he takes him out.

as he was subbed off in the half time break, that means no sub comes on right?

8a. If they use it, any player who starts with a green vest, or is red vested in the first half, will be replaced by an emergency. This can happen for up to 3 players.

half time break is not the first half.

[Purple 77]

All year we have said HT break is included in the first half, so yes Swan is subbed off.

Might not get round to mid-round score updates this weekend  :( will be a tad busy I reckon.

Make sure to continue the hype finalists!

Ok good ray probably wont get 78

[Jroo]

Jelwood such a spud. Sidey showing him how a premium midfielder should score

hopefully he is my HGA. so 94 from him isnt terrible.

I have a bad feeling about this, reminds me of serbia. Soo dominant but somehow gets unlucky towards the end.

Need Goldy to pump a 150+ to make me feel better.

[Hellopplz]

Swan to 83 and subbed off :'(. Given need to go big or go home to be honest against Dublin, so lets go for 150 Ray!!
