Good day for the baby thundaz 8)

Hopefully some of our other blokes that have underperformed recently can get back on the horse and we can put up a competitive score!

We need something special to win after the start pacific have had... Fasolo & Carlisle not helping.

Quick skim of the Pumas...

Zaha - 82
S.Hill - 71

So not a bad start. Don't think I'm missing anyone?

Cannot believe so many coaches weren't interested in Joey Montagna when I put him on the table. The man is a points machine!

You guys over at New Delhi need the points though :P.

True, but we were more than willing to work through a deal! Oh well, maybe at years end when teams fall shatteringly short in September they will come chasing the 115 ppg superstar midfielder from NDT ;)

Can't believe so many turned down this young gem!

Never said he was young... He is in his first year of a three year deal and is pumping scores that are premium in anyone's language sooo either you're drunk or the point you make is quite silly...

I tried, you wanted a flowering bucket load for him ::)

When we're resting jets like K. Cornes hard to offer you wanted for just another mid.

We wanted kids. You run a flowering retirement village. Clearly we weren't ever going to work anything out ::)

Yeah, I wanted Montagna and I was told I had to give Beams + more...  ::)

I highly doubt that.

Yep that's it. Zaha at half points though. Hill puts in his worst game of the season so far :-\

I definitely remember being asked for Beams for Joey at the very least.  :P

[roo boys!]

Shame it looks I may have made the wrong choice for my last mid spot, picking Greenwood over Young and McLean, but ideally Brock can come out and return with a big score today, and return to the spot he once had secured at M4. Better yet, Swallow returns before the byes!

Some nice scores all round this week with Greenwood the only major disappointment. Far from game over yet with still 11 to play for PNL including both captains. Good start but my remaining 4 players must be good to clinch victory here.
