Official Match Thread S18 R5 Gold City Royals vs West Coast Wonders at The Golden Throne

[TheFreshBanana]

The humour is timeless. Taking the moral high ground is a cop out.

I'm 4 games in here at the Royals, and have no gripes with anyone at the club or in charge. In my limited experience, we have one of (if not the) best leadership groups in the SFA. I certainly won't be looking to move on.

Shit, you'd hope they were the best leadership group in the SFA.

Considering you've only experienced one leadership group in the SFA.

[TheHoneyBadger]

Don't the curse is fun. You can come back and be a better person. Even if Wise Guy Sam doesn't think so. It's ok though he was never a good person anyway.

Well, should it happen, at least I'll get a shiny badge out of it, I guess

As for being a better person, I think that's beyond salvation. Playing for the Royals is a step in the right direction, though.

 

[Wise Guy Sam]

Not my fault my team won the Premiership you don't realise how much money I lost!

Though I am copying you at the moment with a permanent backline position.

What are your plans for next season?

I've got another move planned actually. I'm always looking for a new challenge. So...





Once I've conquered the ruck position I'm heading to the forward line for S19 ALL SFA CHF WGS. I'll do this at the Royals. They are pretty damn cool.

I've experienced 5, having engaged in long, largely pointless and occasionally hilarious debates with the Hawks, the Swampies, the Warriors and the Demons. And now you lot. We'll see how we go

Also, I'm pretty sure our campaign slogan this year is 'TheFreshBanana sucks at Pokemon'. I can talk smack because you don't have the chance to mercilessly thrash me this time around

 

[Wise Guy Sam]

I never said it was an issue for you, just wanted to highlight the difference between the two clubs. We're hated by opposition players because of our success and the arrogance that comes with it. You're actually hated by ex-teammates who had a problem with the administration, even if they were "dead weight".

Oh and I forgot to say, if you're too scared to move yourself to the ruck rover position, then I'll nominate Shallow as my champion. Whoever has the better game, owes the other $1 (hey, I'll go all in if you're not chicken).

Hahaha.

S15 ALL SFA RR WGS won a Mobbs medal with the most votes ever in a single season.

The only reason I haven't won back to back to back MM's is because Ive enjoyed 2 seasons down back krumping forwards.

So I'll see you at the RR spot come this Sunday?

Well, there's a lot more to leadership groups than engaging in long and largely pointless debates. But I can see why you would think the Royals have the best leadership group in the SFA, judging by that criteria

That's fine, I love any slogan as long as it has myself in it. Particularly when it's a club slogan.

I love being the centre of attention

 

[Wise Guy Sam]

I'm sure you can glance up from time to time and see me leap over friend and foe to slam the ball down into my own RR's possession.

This season I'm all about Rucking.

Fine. Go ruck rucking scared you scaredy ruck.

 

[VitalDread]

Ahh the Wonders, still haven't improved their banter over the off season.

 

[Jhye Clark 13]

Classy SoG, a pedophilia joke, and a joke that is 21 years old, talk about "outdated".

That's nothing compared to what I'm going to do to you on the field. You are the sides RR are you not?

Players come and go, the Royals should know that better than any other club.

You mean a 3rd year club who hasn't made the finals? Of course there are bound to be a few mercenaries in every club. I mean is it a coincidence that you decided to join the Wonders.

Winning a premiership and having players disembark is an entirely different matter, and I'm not sure what's happening at your club to be honest, but it looks ominous.

A big difference though, is that there are plenty of ex-Royals who have and had gripes with the Royals administration, whereas, I don't see any ex-Wonder have anything bad to say about the Wonders.

I read an article somewhere that suggested pantskyle didn't take too kindly to certain situations arising from his short stay. In fact he wasn't too fond of the way the leadership group handled their business. How many captains have you had in the last 3 seasons, and how many of those found their way to other clubs? I guess we may as well include Vice Captains in that question as well, just to spice things up a little further. That's some culture your club's managed to build.

Maybe you should join forces with Uncle Leo and start the decline threads again. They worked well.

No need for another thread. Uncle_Leo 's thread has well and truly served it's purpose. I mean your only win this season is against a side who currently remains winless, quite an honor.

We are still the best team to ever qooty so I am sure that will suffice.

I'm fairly sure another 4 time premiership side managed to claim back to back.

You should know never to doubt me when it comes to bantering in a match thread regardless of where the Wonders are currently on the ladder.

Of course I'd never doubt you, I'm merely lying in wait for the evidence.

Dynasties always have to come to an end however the jury is still out on whether ours has finished as the season is only four rounds old.

Na you're cooked. Just managed to scrape into the finals last season, now you're in a contest to avoid the wooden spoon.

As for players leaving the Wonders, no problem with that at all. Players come and go all the time, has nothing to do with our culture.

ShaunDuggan and Speck both left the Wonders previously and decided to come back. If our culture was soo bad then wouldn't they have gone somewhere else?

Wouldn't they have remained to begin with? Why leave a club who's culture makes it impossible to do so.

Well we are the best club at Pokemon.

We're Pokemon royalty. We were actually going to be the Goldenrod City Royals but Marlowe didn't think we should make such an obvious reference to my member

Ahh this guy.... Whoever this guy is still hasn't made a name for himself in the off season.

I'm fairly sure another 4 time premiership side managed to claim back to back.

We only need to get to 6th I think thats a proven fact

 

[Jhye Clark 13]

We only need to get to 6th I think thats a proven fact

So you claimed back to back premierships from 6th, or is that your aim?

 

[croweater 41]

So you claimed back to back premierships from 6th, or is that your aim?

That is our aim. But we can finish anywhere from 1 to 8 and have just as much chance as anyone else in the finals. Write us off this early at your own peril.

This contest is over, give this man the $10,000.

This picture makes me want to become an ivory dealer.

The money is amazing. I do suggest getting into it. Dragons are full of ivory, I have also discovered that bears are as well.

Bears are full of ivory? That's interesting. I was sick of paying that Bear tax anyway, I already pay the Homer tax. Now I can just pillage them for their sweet, sweet expensive ivory.

 

[Jhye Clark 13]

I guess the more teams they include in the finals, the greater chance the Wonders have of sneaking in. No Wonder you voted for such a farcical format.

Yeah the bear tax is a real kick in the groin. The homer tax must be tough as well, surely the royals are only paying you in used band-aids seeing as Son of God Wise Guy Sam and okeydoke7 are taking the 2 gatorades and half a pineapple the club owns.

I guess the more teams they include in the finals, the greater chance the Wonders have of sneaking in. No Wonder you voted for such a farcical format.

I didn't have a say in it. But I think I agree with a top 8 being to many but if we finish 8th I won't complain

 

[Marklar_33]

Speck and Duggs don't count, neither does Marklar_33 (don't worry mate, I remember you even if your captain doesn't). They ended up at the rats, Gumbies and Dragons. Getting someone to return from the Royals would sell your point but until than you don't have one.

Thanks for the mention, old friend!

I'm ok with my skipper forgetting me, I probably have less than 10 posts this season. I'm not worthy!

Nah, I get paid in candy and get use of a company car.

I wish they'd cut me a slice of the Gatorade business though. I have to drink Milo, and every week I get lambasted by opposition supporters and threatened with show-cause notices as a result.
