Official Match Thread S31 Round 8 - Sin City Swamprats vs East Side Hawks at Underground Stadium

[Firestarter]

Have you got something against standing up?

 

[jackster83]

Triple zinger stackers, so good...

Good to see you're taking your pre-game prep more seriously this week. Some Mobbs votes headed your way I reckon.

So many wonderful names.

Our very own Quadzilla featuring high on that list. Pretty scandalous that the #ratoftheweek judges haven't recognised him yet.

 

[TY24]

Freo are so overrated on BigFooty.

FTFY

 

[Agent93]

I remember you were really close back end of S24, glad you stayed on.

I'm honestly surprised it hasn't happened since.

 

[TY24]

Another ton for Inglis.

Alex Carey would be getting nervous.

 

[Firestarter]

FTFY

Who rates them?

 

[TY24]

Who rates them?

They do

and eth-dog, apparently

 

[SM]

Who rates them?

Eth-Dog is their number one ticket holder.

 

[Firestarter]

Fair enough.

 

[Agent93]

Another ton for Inglis.

Alex Carey would be getting nervous.

SOS will be a bit miffed at missing out on runs here.

 

[TY24]

him and greeny, considering Paris is on the verge of a ton

 

[Agent93]

him and greeny, considering Paris is on the verge of a ton

If you were told three WA batsmen scored tons in an innings you wouldn't have picked both of them to miss out.

 

[jackster83]

Best result for the Redbacks all season.

 

[TY24]

If you were told three WA batsmen scored tons in an innings you wouldn't have picked both of them to miss out.

I wouldn’t pick Cameron Bancroft to make runs on that 2015 WACA road that Ross Taylor made 300 on at the moment

 

[Hatchy1992]

Friday afternoon early mark. Winning!

 

[eth-dog]

I stand by my statement.

Insanely stacked team right there

 

[TY24]

I stand by my statement.

If they had a forward line I could get behind it.

The fact that they had to play Alex Pearce at full forward shows how deplorable their forward stocks are.

They're going nowhere with Taberner leading the line.

 

[Agent93]

Insanely stacked team right there

Aye, stack of rocks is still a stack.

 

[SM]

I stand by my statement.

We'll revisit in two months.

No one is saying they aren't ok, but just that they aren't underrated.

They lack forward depth but their full strength forward line is pretty good.

You said they'd lose to Carlton. Carlton suck.

They will lose to Carlton.

 

[TY24]

Is it though?

Who's coming into it apart from Lobb and Walters when he drifts forward?

Lobb is a crab who can't kick a set shot to save himself. The bloke is a ruckman, not a forward.

Walters is a gun obviously, but he spends a lot of time on the ball.

The only other player on their injury list who ads any sort of quality to their forward line is Sturt.
