Great read noz :D has the best question been announced?

Yes that have it was a tie between Yourself and BB

Jayman was reporter 1 while BB was reporter 8 both men will receive Turkish Gazelle membership packages as well as 2 free tickets each to the AXV Grand Final hopefully to see the Gazelles perform.

Seeing as the Folders have nothing to do with the Gazelles I am looking to sell these membership packages for a reasonable price. ;)
I liked the press conference Noz btw really good job. Is Heath Shaw stiill trying to shoot fire out the back? Did he succeed in the end?

Jobe Watson: Obviously this has been quite a shocked and has been brought upon quite suddenly, As fair as I'm conceded everything we took during my time at Essendon Football Club was completely above board, Right now i am going to head back to Australia and settle things with ASADA (Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority).

Reports:

Banfield dominated the game for Team A kicking 4 goals and setting up a couple more in the process, Viney showed us what he is capable of winning several clearances and pushes his claim for a round 1 selection. Fisher enjoyed a role change playing at CHF, Kerr seems to be over his injury woes dominated the midfield.

Rampe won over many fans with his hard work in the midfield, Anderson pushed his claims for round 1 with a dominating display over the half forward line, Tarberne kicked 3 goals and provided a good option up front.

Brent Renouf will join Jobe Watson, Dean Cox and Robbie Gray as confirmed outs for round 1 of the CW pre season competition.
