WXV Round 3 - Suns, Spetsnaz fight for 3-0

[Nails]

Big changes next week

Dane Swan most likely dropped

Matthew Boyd recalled from reserves, Cox moved to ruck and Warnock down the reserves.

Chapman also in with a co-captain chance.

[CrowsFan]

Pre-scaling Dillos win by 2 points...

Hopefully we also win post-scaling.

boooooo

20 points nails, 20. Scores won't change enough to make you lose. If anything it will be an even bigger margin

[Nails]

No 2 points. 135 defeated 133.

Last week one of my players gained 18 SC points after scaling. It's possible, though likely not with Spudendo.

[CrowsFan]

Ah I get cha ;)

[roo boys!]

Bloody Hendo...sure you don't want him back Purps?

Congrats Nails...back to the drawing board, yet again

[CrowsFan]

So White finished with 4! Yes 4! Surely that must be a record low score for a player that didn't get injured! :o

[Jukes]

We scored like 1250-ish

pathetic

considering dropping every player except Ward, Jaeger, Dys, Heater, Simpkin and May.

Unfortunately no rucks continue to hurt us.  Team is improving but still can not get through for that win

So many mini rants on White as I catch up on the thread :P. At least he didn't score negative ;).

Well when you score 1,558 from your 15 a player scoring 4 is really the only thing you can complain about ;)

Much improved... This is before HGA right? At least we improved and Merrett is my new love. Can only go up from here with our players returning.

[kilbluff1985]

Pumas break duck against ravaged Brewers

Berlin Brewers (18.14.122) lost to Sao Paulo Pumas (23.18.156)

Gary Ablett was dominant, and the Pumas looked like their old selves for the first time this year. Berlin's significant injury problems proved too much for them.

Best
Berlin: D Jackson, R Conca, M Hibberd, D Wells
Sao Paulo: G Ablett, R Sloane, Ja Roughead, W Minson, J Gunston, H Hartlett, M Wright

Club Debut
Berlin: J Viney

Reserves
Rhineland Rum-Runners (7.5.47) lost to Rio de Janeiro Jaguars (9.7.61)

Best
