Awaiting your reply.

Well, the past two weeks have been pretty shower and I'm fairly sure that even though we'll somehow beat New York this week that we'll end up 9th and missing finals. Yeah, you heard it here first.  :P

Keep talking yourselves up buddy!

Your season will be over once this round is complete!  8)

It was over when we lost to Christchurch. :'(

No shame in that. NY didn't beat us either, we beat ourselves.

That's probably a better assessment of what happened to us.

[Ricochet]

Can't kick, slow, no tank

Everyone doubted him

Didn't you write us off at the start of the season and basically every week?

It wasn't just the fact that I took McLean out, but also selecting Clay Smith to replace him. I had 9 players in the reserves and if I picked ANY of them instead of Smith we'd still have won, but no. Would have won with Connor as captain instead of Bryce, the only reason Blakely wasn't captain was because of Purples little quip about me ignoring Gibbs while Blakely and Boyd are in the picture. Compo thanks Purps, for clouding my judgement like that.


Confirmed ins: Austin, Wells, Bob
Potential ins: Silvagni, Cox, Masten

Confirmed outs: Fiorini, Clay, Mzungu
Potential outs (extended bench): Vardy, Petrie, Lester

Hopefully all players named on the benches play so the Weta can increase their numbers.

Pretty filthy that we still don't have a playing ruck amongst other key personal also not back  :'(

Dan Houston comes off the rookie list to debut. Hopefully Howe doesn't tag Jelly too hard

Blakely playing the Docherty role across half back is a positive move for his SC and will get him DPP. He's learnt how to kick and his inboard kicks to the corridor are telling, although he bites off a little too much occasionally. Can win contested ball better than scoring machine Dochers and he'll have a 2016 Cripps-like finish to the year and lead us to the flag. Watch.
