The Delhi Friday Night Curse

[Jukes]

This season for us in a nutshell: week after we're eliminated Nic Nat, Weideman, Ballantyne, and Barrass are in. Sure could've used those guys when we were struggling for 15...

[Purple 77]

Tokyo didn't name a senior team (which is fine, none of the reserves' finalist that didn't make senior finals HAD to), which means I'll name their best XV how I think it looks like:

D: Jason Johannisen, Anthony McDonald-Tipungwuti, Courtenay Dempsey, Garrick Ibbotson
M: Luke Parker (C), Anthony Miles, Aaron Young, Rory Atkins
R: Zac Smith
F: Luke Dahlhaus (VC), Dale Thomas, Charlie Cameron, Jamie Cripps
I: Scott Lycett, Josh Dunkley
E: Jarryd Blair, Harry Cunningham, Martin Gleeson



I'm also fine with how the other teams have named their teams

[Purple 77]

Now, bear with me when it comes to the Reserves finals for the whole finals series, because I had to modify my spreadsheet somewhat, which means there could be bugs.

But after Friday night:

Dublin off to a great start; putting the pressure on the Reindeers immediately to perform from the "get-go". But they'd be happy they named Stretch over Marley!

Rio's Maynard failed to fire, which is unfortunate because someone(s) MUST stand up for the Jaguars if they are to win and it has to come from their depth players to compliment their must-fire guns. But the Suns could have gone better though, with a good score from Cotch and a poor one from Hampson.

It's only one match in, but has the match-defining moment already happened?! Captain Pendles churned out his lowest score of the season thanks to a fourth quarter injury... god that hurts for the Dillos, they needed him to carry its bottom three players this week. Meanwhile at New Delhi, they've gone off to a great start with Howe & CC Sidebottom doing quite well!

Another team off to a flier, the Revolution would be thrilled with its contributions from Houli & Grigg, putting the pressure on early for the Islanders, whom are yet to score.

Counter programming? :/

[Hellopplz]

We were actually meant to name Marley over Crozier, but as I was out, never got the chance to do it. Thankfully, works out for us ;D. Still that was not the Friday night we wanted against Dublin :(.

[RaisyDaisy]

Heeney goes BOOM and TMac tons up yet again. Lewis meh ok

Gibson the only passenger so far
