I may come up with something a little later. Just found an article where Clarko says Roughy will be the sub, so I think I will tinker with my lineup...

Not totally unexpected, but disappointing nonetheless.

Care to make any comments in the lead up the GF of your own BB?

If it bleeds, we can kill it.
Taking it one week at a time.
Football is like a chess match and winning this game will be the first move.
Other football cliches.
Random rubbish.
I found a piece of bread.
The ox is slow but the earth is patient.

The Pumas head coach, CF, is unsure what to make of the Beijing Bears coach. During the Bears' pre game press conference BB started to ramble on about pieces of bread and slow oxen, raising questions over his sanity. Is this all a ploy to distract the Pumas or is he really mentally insane? Only time will tell...

On to the match and looking at the Pumas squad we can see they have made a total of 6 changes to the squad that will contest in the WXV first ever preseason grand final. In comes defender Scott McMahon, midfielders Gary Ablett, Daniel Cross, Daniel Hannebery, big man Will Minson and small forward Devon Smith. The unlucky ones to miss out are Peter Yagmoor, Hamish Hartlett, Ryan Harwood, Jarryd Blair, Jon Griffin and Luke Lowden. Of these Yagmoor can feel most aggrieved about missing the final after he had performed very well in the previous 2 rounds, he does make it on to the emergency bench.

These changes have significantly strengthened an already firing Puma side and hopefully it will be enough to get the win over a strong Bears team :)
