Round 7

We trekked to one of the Doc's former clubs (feels like every week tbh) and needing a win to hold our spot in the upper end of the table we won. Wait. We won Handballs. We won Iron-outs (thanks to yours truly). We won... not much else. It was a strange week to be fair, with the Roys boycotting their own match thread in protest of how the sim had treated them this season, and that made it difficult to find posting rhythm. It's my belief that this lack of rhythm flowed into the match itself. Biggie and Mr E managed to force out 30-odd posts each, but after that it was slim pickings.

Filthy worked himself into a lather in the rooms before the match, and carried that into the match, booting home 6 majors, and keeping us somewhat close through his accuracy in front of goal. Biggie , Dagless , your correspondent and the Doc all racked up plenty of touches, and occasionally even got our hands on the Qooty (boom boom!). The Doc also managed to earn 7 free kicks from the Umps, putting Wacky Flog's title of Umpires Pet at risk at this stage of the season. Wacky will need to spend more time giving pre-match gummies in future rounds. Can there be more than 24 hours in a day?

Let's be honest. This was a shit result against a team that has been cannon fodder this season. We will need to do better than this to be a contender.

Round 8

The Bandits seemed confused. They weren't sure if they were hosting us or we were hosting them. Their posting by only a handful is all over the shop. They mingle quality with, well, Harolad. They were never a chance to beat us in this match and Mr Eagle made sure of it with a season defining performance. Along with Tayl0r , Doctor Colossus and Biggie he led out hard in posting through the week, and then on the park he dominated in the forward line with 24 touches, 9 marks and a goal. The 7 behinds he kicked tell the rest of the story of course... he could have broken all sorts of SFA records if he could actually kick the Qooty. As a team we won pretty much all key indicators. The Filth Wizard kicked another 5 to move to 32 for the season. TheCuzEffect laid 6 tackles - only Wacky and The Doc have had more in a game this season. The Doc had 26 touches and with another 4 Frees his way has drawn level in the Umpires Pet award. Gummies all around!

Right after I receive your formal apology for being a total jerk

or mid-week like I do every 2nd week. Whichever comes first
I apologize for you being a jerk, you can't help it.
 
Well team, we have what can only be described as a pathetic shit attempt at winning a game, at no point in that match did we look like competent players, I award you all no point and may Allah have mercy on your souls.

This week we play against a team sitting above us on the ladder, simply put they are better then we are but we have something they never have had, love for each other.

Let's bring our love to them - https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/thre...east-side-hawks-at-the-golden-throne.1128233/

Please note if you fail to win this week then I am not taking you out for pizza.
 
Round 9 vs Furies

The Furies. The hapless Furies. In this week we broke our 'away from home' duck against the team that wacky Campaigner left in the off-season, and probably, if we're honest with ourselves, at the same time consigned to perpetual irrelevance. It's a sad state of affairs down at Qunt Rd, but we made the Furies feel welcome and a little better about themselves until we stole away with the 4 points. It's worth noting that Brown Bottle out-posted Wacky. Wacky of course won a lot of free kicks (because he can suck golf balls through a garden hose) although not as many as Doc Colossus, while Brown Bottle gave away another three to maintain his reputation as the SFA's least sociable Qootballer.

Filthy had a dirty day, spending most of it watching the scoreboard from the bench to see how many Miss_Kate could kick. Unfortunately for him it was quite a few. Doc Colonoscopy, Tayl0r and Dagless led the disposal count in a handball happy midfield (160 vs 103), and the Doc and Mr E both managed about 40 posts against a bedraggled opposition. With Filthy distracted TheCuzEffect bagged four and Uncle_Leo three.
