Glowing report for Tibet's smokie and coach tbag's love chaild Rory Laird from Adelaide based club the AFC

Rory Laird (DEF) *Rookie
$108,500

Game one: five kicks, two marks and one tackle
DT points: 26

Game two: two kicks, three handballs and one mark.
DT points: 15

Laird has been one of the most improved players at West Lakes over the summer. Spent time on Stephen Milne in a small defender role on Sunday, but plays as a midfielder at West Adelaide. The 19-year-old is vying for the spot left vacant by Michael Doughty, but BEWARE as a rookie he canâ€™t play AFL until after round 11 unless the Club places a player on the long-term injury list. Mark him down as one to keep an eye on.

Looks like the Dees were impressed by what Toumpas has shown so far.

Melbourne re-signs Toumpas before he plays a game

The fans are ectatic and Tibet has won a thriller, the Llamas have won the first ever official match in the first round of the pre-season competition the CW CAP.

In front of a sellout croud in Adleaide South Australia at the world renound Football Park, Tibet had to come from behind from their first half deficit to beat a strong Turkish unit, you ng guns Clay Smith, Andrew Gaff and Jimmy "the Gun" Toumpas were outstanding for Tibet and giant Ruckman Zac Smith who only played a half looked all the bit ready to step into the leading ruck role for Tibet

The youngsters Rory Laird and Luke Brown were highly impressive as was to hope Chad Wingard. The three South Australian youngsters showed real poise and polish to help the Llamas with their victory. Young Key Forward Jeremy Cameron showed why he was taken so early in the draft and is pressing claims to start round one.

The selling of merchendise has taken off today in China and also Adelaide, membership is also taking off after the win and the South Australian fans are highly behing the Llamas, with rivalry round in round 16 at Football Park Adelaide, the last before the Adelaide Oval switch next season, Adelaide based fans of the Llamas will get to see their hero's every year

The Llama Captain Patrick Dangerfield is expected to return for the clash with the Lambs but the CW CAP Captain could go to young hero Jimmy "the Gun" Toumpas, will be interesting to see who chach tbag gives the captaincy to this week

Tibet play away to Mongolia this week and the rivalry between the Chinese and Mogolians could turn ugly amongst the fans, lets hope for Buddhas sake the match is played sportingly

The Future John Butcher has really been stepping up in training recently and we are hoping he is ready to play for Tibet in the opening round of the season,
After hip surgery last year we have been monitoring him and his body and it looks like he is almost ready to play, we are now set to give him a game in round one, with a bunch of young key forwards at Tibet we are hoping a slightly older Johnny Butcher will step up and play this year and lead the way for goals for us, he's looking fit and healthy and ready to play
John won't play in our final Cap match this weekend but we will play him in our friendly trial game for our reserves against the Glenelg Tigers on saterday night at the Bay

Our final warm up match ended badly for Tibet but left coach tbag smiling after some strong performances from young players, in particular first gamer Ben Kennedy who was best on ground for Tibet, some were calling it a surprise bit it was no surprise to us!

Ben on the weekend for the Llamas

"Oh yeah, I was very nervous. I've had aspirations to play AXV all my life so obviously the nerves were pretty high
but they go away once you get your first touch."

Kennedy was simply outstanding, although he stands at only 174cm, the boy from Glenelg showed an appetite for getting hands dirty in the centre where he managed to hunt down 19 possessions, take four marks and lay two tackles, not to mention the goal he kicked during the third quarter.

Tibet now turns their attention to the season propper when they face the Crocs in Round 1
