Wanna talk injuries? How about 4 flowering ACLs... >:(

[Ricochet]

Actually cannot believe your luck mate. Of the 14 ACLs this year you have 4.

[KoopKicka]

Yuck Koop, that injury list is terrible

Haha yours in on par, if not worse :P

Gibbsy to miss this week  :'(

Yeah thats a massive blow :/

[Jay]

Yeah. Only 1 has really affected my starting 15 (Suckling) but the rest still hurt for depth purposes.

This Lez has done worse... Tex and Patton both huge to the Elephants. At least he will be securing a high draft pick :P

[Ricochet]

I have 5 starters out atm

[KoopKicka]

So really only missing Ryder and Rioli?

Ellard as well, but yeah, theyre the only 3 high scorers that were/are missing, Embley and Didak are brilliant on their day also.

[tbagrocks]

I recon Chad Wingard plus all the crows plating GWS can stand right up!

Danger unstoppable, Lynchy to score 180, Otten the general, Lairdy back

Gaff playing well, Three Smiths doing good, Lynchy and Vickery playing well

We are set to spoil the .......

Spit Fire!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's alright Koop most of those players that are in your firsts should be back in a week or two I think..

Cotch confirmed to be on track for this week, Ryder should come back in, Clark's a very minor injury, idk about Ellard yet...

You'll be right :)

Kathmandu Welcome Back Star Duo

The Kathmandu Eskimos will regain star duo Trent Cotchin and Paddy Ryder ahead of their home game against Kuala Lumpur Crocodiles. After a dismal start to the season Kathmandu will be looking to secure four points against an undermanned Crocodiles line up. Although Cotchin and Ryder aren't the only additions to the Eskimos this week as head coach KoopKicka has snaffled up coaching prodigy specky92.

We caught up with Specky today and he states "Well Koop called me up saying he is having some difficulties at Kathmandu and complained that his team is overflowing with talent!"

Specky also said "I'm very excited to join the ranks at Kathmandu and I'm excited by the youth in the team list"

Specky will be hoping to start his coaching career off with a win against Kuala Lumpur Crocodiles. The Crocodiles are disappointed that vice captain Bryce Gibbs has not fully recovered from his hamstring tightness in time for the big clash. Kathmandu and Kuala Lumpur are both desperate for a win this week to keep their seasons alive however the tabloids believe the Eskimos midfield will be too strong.

Verdict: Kathmandu by 27 points

[KoopKicka]

Welcome specky92 and a belated 3 month welcome to FOOTBALL FACTORY

That rounds off an all-star coaching panel of Spinking, Jukes, FF and specky
