1st, 2nd, 3rd

Looks like I'll be playing finals football for another five years  :P

declining though. Last year you were 2nd as you were runnerup?

Exactly, but if that trend continues we'll continue to play finals for a while  :P

Yep, isn't that what I put?
Premiers in first year.
Runners up in second year.
Loser in prelim final (but ahead of Dildos) in third year.

Does anyone want to actually finish first after home and away?

Minor Premiers are yet to win a Premiership

I do, happy to break the trend and take out both.

[Memphistopheles]

Been 16th, 4th and then 10th... not a clue where this pattern is going  :-\

I think we've been like 13th, 6th and 9th. Might have to double-check that.

Cape Town have finished 2nd, 7th and 6th.

Yet to drop out of the finals and we plan to continue that record this year.

The team at the moment is currently looking like this:

Def: Shaun Higgins, Shane Savage, Nick Haynes, Cam O'Shea
Mid: Josh P. Kennedy, Trent Cotchin, Scott Selwood, Dom Tyson
Ruc: Stefan Martin
Fwd: Tom Hawkins, Jeremy Cameron, Andrejs Everitt, Stewart Crameri
Uti: Adam Cooney, Craig Bird

Eme: James Gwilt/Jasper Pittard, Ed Curnow/George Horlin Smith, Tom Hickey/Mark Blicavs, Lachie Hunter/Sam Reid

Going to be very hard to pick those last couple of def/uti/fwd positions each week as we have much better depth I think.

Jeez going to have a busy season playing for both Cape Town and Toronto! :P

Haha I meant Billy Longer lol. Got mixed up with another team I have

We need to win something.  :P

Thats been NDT's plan for 3 years.... still haven't won a premiership either

[Toga]

It would be an improvement on our two 17th placings in the last two years :P

[DazBurg]

Much more consistent in the European Premiership, where you've come (out of 5), 5th, 5th and 5th :P

Loved in 2013 = 5th in Europe, 4th in the World!

And the top 3 didn't have any europe teams :P

its Europe time now. Europe the reigning premiers.

Hoping for a Dublin v PNL final

X2
:D
lock it in

[AaronKirk]

Our aim at New York would be to make the finals.

Anything above that would be a success in our first season as co-coaches.

Not that far off Dublin, I've got much better depth, too. I reckon it will be even closer this year. Competition starting to become more even, too.

:o How close is that?!
Although, not expecting Rocky to average a 132.

[kilbluff1985]

and who have you got to replace Harvey in the forward line he will be mid only

[Holz]

Nick Sal Santo if mid only drops my average a lot.
