Where did I mention Goldy?

Oh, it's become that clear now that no clarification is needed for the term "scrub", even for North supporters huh?

:P

:P

yes totally.

never mind that he is the top ruck in the comp  and the 5th overall (4th in points scored)

kinda expect the scrub calls from a dee/berlin supporter. I know sitting on 5 wins and 5 losses must be exciting as its the best for years, but we have higher standards here at North and Dublin.

118 is a down year for Goldy and north going 9-1 is ho hum.

jealously is something that comes with being great. Dublin and Goldy have long realized that.

Round 11

Rising Star

The rising star of this week is Jarrad Jansen of London who scored a pretty respectable 98 on debut. Good signs for the future right there. The only other rookie to better that effort was Dublin's Weitering who has already been nominated.

Team of the Week

The team of the week this round has a distinct Mexican and Irish flavour to it with just under half the team being from Mexico City and Dublin, but sprinkled in to the mix were some interesting surprises such as Berlin's Daniel Talia, Cape Town's Dom Tyson and Buenos Aires' Ed Curnow. Tom Rockliff made a sensational return to join the 200+ club and don the armband while Beijing spearhead Josh Jenkins is his 2IC. JROO8 takes the coaching honours for the ridiculous showing from Mexico City.

D: Matthew Boyd (Christchurch), Heath Shaw (Mexico City), Jacob Weitering (Dublin), Daniel Talia (Berlin)
M: Tom Rockliff [c] (Mexico City), Joel Selwood (Dublin), Marcus Bontempelli (Pacific), Dom Tyson (Cape Town)
R: Sam Jacobs (Rio)
F: Josh Jenkins [vc] (Beijing), Daniel Wells (Mexico City), Zach Merrett (PNL), Brent Harvey (Mexico City)
I: Ed Curnow (Buenos Aires), Rory Sloane (Dublin)

Coach: JROO8 (Mexico City)

Daniel Talia! What a pickup!

Has scored 90, 97 & 116 in the last three weeks to with an overall average of 78.

Not bad for Pick 30 in the rookie draft!

[Holz]

geez weits is a beast. taking out his injured game and game back from injury he is going 85. He is a premo already. i was expecting this but in his 3rd year not his 1st.

Sam Collins is a little unlucky. 6 months too old or he would have got the rising star.


congrats to rocky, could he be back?

[iZander]

congrats to rocky, could he be back?

That depends on whether i decide to trade him in in AF or not ;)

[Toga]

[Jroo]

M: Tom Rockliff [c] (Mexico City)

Shaz we need you ASAP.  :-X

[JBs-Hawks]

Shaz we need you ASAP.  :-X

Shouldnt have traded the #1 draft pick for a guy with broken knees

Max Gawn had a Dual Knee Reco at the Age of 17, look at him now.  ;)

Both Jukes and I are a little doubtful of the trade now, but it's no secret that a rebounding defender will always be a better SCer than a KPD.
