Tom McDonald was exceptional this year 98 average soo far and he is still only 22 years old. Rumors are flying that he might be out the door already at the hands of the ruthless coach.

Weirdly one of the reasons is that his young, taller,  better brother Oscar is getting a gig this week.

coach Holz was heard saying "You though Tmac was special, wait till you see Omac"

Nope I've looked many times. It's something to do with coming to the site on my phone I think.

It started happened after that. Having said that though I just tried updating some settings and how I view  the messages and it seems to hav fixed itself.

You're basing that off what I told you at the start of the year aren't you  :P

OMac can actually kick, so look out AFL.

Yeah it's a typo. In the club interview with him, he says he'll be playing defence. Seeing as Dawes is out, Tom McDonald will be playing up forward this week.

My Chumps

Very, very late to the conversation but it'll be sad to see two original teams folding. I like the idea of clubs having long histories, ups-and-downs, rebuilds etc. Certainly hope that if I were to leave Cape Town for whatever reason that the club would still prosper.

this is what I was thinking but never said.

There will be only 14 original teams left if this keeps happening the whole spirit of the comp is ruined. Its supposed to be able creating history and teams lasting for years.

thats four teams gone in the last two years.

I would like to see the mighty Dillos rebuild from the ashes and the Wolves who have always been just below the best teams actually rise up and take it.

these two new teams are in fact that, new. The history basically abolished.

Coaches are able to put their stamp on inherited teams. Look at NY. Actually, look at Moscow. They've ripped my old list to shreds in search of being the greatest young team. When I look at them I think to myself that I never want to lose to Moscow because I think what they've done is a travesty, but I acknowledge that it's well and truly their team that's unrecognizable from the one I built. I wouldn't feel the same about St. Petersberg.

Yeh from memory we got Duncan for Stringer so was quality for quality. Stringer will most likely turn out better though
