WXV Round 9 - Moscow/Toronto in Chill Clash

Cairo Sands Round 9 Team

Backs: P.Hanley, D.Stanley, N.Malceski, B.Goodes
Mids: R.Douglas, D.Armitage, B.Sewell, S.Grigg
Ruck: S.Mumford
Fwds: L.Breust, L.Thomas, P.Puopolo, C.Newman (OOP)
Int: C.Pearce, N.Dal Santo

Emg: M.Jones, J.Gibson, M.Evans

Captain: R.Douglas
Vice Captain: P.Hanley

Decided to make a big call here and play Newman OOP because I feel that whatever score he gets will be better halved than whatever Petrenko will get even if named... Here's hoping it pays off. Not confident Petrenko will make the 22 anyway...

Was also tempted to make Armitage captain but Douglas has been pretty reliable. Pearce Hanley gets VC duties this week too, just because.

Paris Nice Lyon Reindeers.

Back: J. Harbrow, D. Myers, L. McPharlin, H. Grundy.
Mids: M. Priddis (C), N. Jones (VC), C. Wingard, K. Simpson.
Ruck: M. Lobbe.
Fwds: J. Westhoff, T. Lynch, B. Maister, L. Jones.
Inter: F. Ray, N. Lower.
Emg: D. Shiel, L. Ball, M. Williams.

Subject to change. Lower and Goldy named at the moment replacing Clay Smith and Liam Jones from the side. Goldy still uncertain until teams are named, so Jones is kept on standby. Ball will be tested mid-week to see if he's ready for 1st team action after his first game back ;).

Goldsack not named, so Jones comes back in. I hope he scores well this game, only seeing action as we have no other forwards playing. Ray comes in for Shiel who's been out of form of late. Hoping he can regain form, and happy to see Ball finally back on the field.

Holy fudge there is a lot of players out of that team... Hopefully still enough to get the W. Troy Chaplin will have to ruck for us in the absence of Smith :(

[Justin Bieber]

Lucky you can cover him CF! Lobbe out for us and we have no playing rucks just like last season ::). Ball comes in OOP with Smith taking his spot in emergencies, hopefully no more games where he starts as the sub :(.
