WXV Round 12: Moscow and Cairo Battle

[Nige]

I have no idea why Jukesy put Nic Nat as our captain.  :-X I hope we don't regret it.

umm 113 116 142, no cox and playing against longer.

Exactly. Lucky he didn't put Griff or you'd be flowered.

Ward was the logical choice imo.  :P

sub rule should be assumed, it's stupid that it isn't. If this costs me the game...

Monfries being potato also.  :P

And we're yet to find out whether the NicNat as skipper decision was a clever call or not.  ;)

At least you used the sub rule.  ;)

No midfield emergency selected. Doesn't Stokes score remain then?

You get your first emg regardless of position iirc.



Looks like Dion's back in form. Almost backed him in as co-captain with Mummy this week, but Beams' good record vs the Hawks was hard to pass up. At this stage, at least it seems it won't cost us.  8)

I wasn't considering Griff  :P Cal all the way!

Bennell goes from interchange to replace Stokes, Lycett subs in for Stokes goes to interchange.

Sub rule in play



Moscow had a 'mare this afternoon, while Beams was disappointing as CC where I expected him to go 120-ish. Breust back to form, Puopolo handy and Dwyer solid. Looking good so far.

That's why our bench is utilities, they get first shot at filling in if possible before emergencies!

This year was opt in, will put a vote next year for it to be opt out

Think should still be opt in, as Thomas started as sub, yet still outscored the emergency who replaced him (Trengove who scored 68 to Thomas' 71) but as we played sub-rule, went against us. So doesn't always work in favour of the team to play it :P.
