WXV Round 13: Dublin to tear down Berlin Wall?

[RaisyDaisy]

Jordan Lewis clearly been paid off by Cairo

WTF Jordy??!!

[Purple 77]

Hmm. I wonder if not captaining Gawn will cost me the game today...

[Purple 77]

Thank you muchly for that last quarter Viney, on so many levels.

[RaisyDaisy]

Cairo in the box seat, but Ess vs Norf will decide it

Higgins off to a flyer as CC

HigGOAT

Last year, against Dublin, it was Michael Walters in the Sunday twilight game who got 173 and won the game, just.

Michael Walters, with Nat Fyfe, plays again in the Sunday twilight game, to chase down a massive Dublin lead. Can they do it?!

[Ricochet]

Just traded in Oliver in SC. Guess I'll take the little win here

For Freos sake I hope so!

[Purple 77]

Honestly, before Dees v Saints, I was very long odds.

But wow. Gawn, Hibbo, Jones + Viney combine for about 420, and Pluggah, of all people, gets the stinky low score I needed to get back in the game.

Hill, Daw, Goldy + 284 v Fyfe, Fyfe, Walters, Goddard + Hodge

Game on!

[Ricochet]

So if Newnes' 45 is HGA then it's 415 needed from Ziebell, Stef, Rich, Tucker, Langdon

Need a lift in the 2nd half from you JZ

[Ricochet]

Need 50 more points from the boys. Come on lads!

[upthemaidens]

Looks like we fell short of 1600,  good signs though considering there was six sub 70 scores.

[Purple 77]

Tigers claw past Magpies

TENSE! Thank god for Stef and Lloyd ey? But really, it was done by HGA at the end of the day, and I reckon Seoul would be bitter about it. I'd hazard a guess Oliver got his lowest career score too.

Destroyers tear down Berlin Wall

OH GOD NO FYFE! Season ruined. No hope left. My team is clearly incapable outside of Fyfe and Gawn. I don't know how to go on.

Seriously though, this was an awesome win by Dublin, who would be stoked by the return of Crouch and Sloane.
