WXV Round 12 - Thunder/Islanders battle for Spoon

[CrowsFan]

Top 4 all finishing with 15 wins and 2 losses would be pretty crazy! Shame I don't plan on losing again :P

[Jukes]

Would love to come equal top, even if it means finishing fourth :P

Hunter just misses out despite a good score last week. Played up front and stared with an 86. Should get DPP next year wish I had him this year.

Praise be to the Lord! Beamsy is on the way back. Think I heard he was gonna play VFL on July 12th or something like that. Coming back at the perfect time? :o

[Nige]

So yeah, our game against Mexico City was close and we could have beaten them, unfortunately lady luck has deserted us this time around and I'm pretty sure we're gonna be without Mummy, B.Goodes, Petrenko and Thomas. And if Puopolo doesn't get up from whatever made him withdraw last minute against the Eagles, we're gonna have a 2-man forward line.  :(

Yes, partial lock out  - sorry didn't realise!

Man the Armadillos could have been good with split rounds and stuff...

But look at our midfielders just coming into form:

Swan - 142.7 3 rd average
Barlow - 135.7 3 rd average
Boyd - 130.0 3 rd average

and Kane Cornes solid all year.

Hopefully Barlow gets up this week...  With Carrazzo, Brennan, Gilbert and Chapman all not too far away I sense a huge score coming.

Dont remind me, I would probably be top 8 if i had barlow.

[Nige]

Just gonna wait for teams to be released, I can already see an OOP player in our forward line. :(

[Maca24]

Shannon Hurn gone for up too 8 weeks  :'(

Big blow with representative footy taking away my AAP Alliance defender.
First time for the year my back 4 has a change, with Goddard, Enright, Hurn and Adcock arguably being the best back line in the world 15's. Luckily for Mexico, we have Brian Lake who has been waiting in the wings for some time!

[CrowsFan]
