Official Match Thread S33 Round 6 - Mount Buller Demons vs Sin City Swamprats at Snow Dome

[okeydoke7]

My early days were fine. I think I might have been vice-captain in your first season.

You're thinking of my middle seasons, otherwise known as The Void.

No, okey absolutely loves the fact that somebody is speaking about the past.

The new league confuses okey. okey needs me.

It wasn’t hard to be VC of the Demons in those days. I was made co-captain after just one full season, then bailed from the sinking ship. The Demons are in far better shape now thankfully - still a cesspit though.

And yes, it’ll take me the rest of this season to get my head around the new norms, new posters, etc. We shouldn’t underestimate how hard it is for a rookie to come into this league - if it’s hard for a hall of famer to find their bearings, how hard must it be for someone who doesn’t even get what the hell this league is about?

In terms of player retention and growth, the new posters need more support. Leadership groups are a crock in fantasy footy, UNLESS they are given specific roles (player recruitment and player retention - recruiting and supporting a certain amount of players each). But that’s just my idea of how to run a club and a league.

In the meantime, I’m happy for you to be my league interpreter. I’m sad that Tarkyn_24 seems to suck now

Incorrect. EBIAC, Deddy, Freakie and myself - a formidable core. You left to chase on field success. Off field, MBD always have and will be strong thanks to an amazing culture.

EBIAC was cooked. You hadn’t even started properly - I pretty much recruited you then bailed. The club was in league wide talks of folding.

A credit to you and the others in fairness that it was built back up. Really, my departure was the kick in the ass the Demons needed.

Not me. My body is a temple.

I’m hungover every Sunday. It’s my pre game ritual

[ShaunDuggan]

We talking coup or HoF nominations?

Talk about a blast from the past

 

[manangatang]

okeydoke7 would be hating this.

Who’s that?

 

[Power Raid]

Hungover after just four drinks

I’m showing my age!

Just spotted this beauty in front of my building.

Gangsters just moved in?

 

[okeydoke7]

Who’s that?

Please. Grow up.

 

[okeydoke7]

Just realised that @sausageroll’s Bigfooty details say he is from ‘MH370’.

What a waste of a tasty pastry treat that would’ve been.

 

[Power Raid]

Hold on... I have philreich behind & Power Raid in the front?

It's like old times. Yay!

Lol power raid in a key position!

What did I do wrong to force me to run around and be accountable?

I'd say it more reeks of a spineless individual, being you.

Na, a smart individual. Why bother being part of a club that becomes a burden for you and saps your enjoyment? Move to wherever you feel refreshed and enthused and have fun. And at that time, anywhere was more fun than the turmoil of the sinking ship - but I’m glad it was rescued.


I did my time taking on the burdensome role of admin for three seasons.

 

[omgfridge]

Not sorry Van_Dyke

Kind of sorry omgfridge and Yakker.

We could of seen the world together

 

[manangatang]

Please. Grow up.

I’ve finished growing. I’m an adult.

 

[sante]

Power Raid doing their best Headless impression

 

[GremioPower]

Gangsters just moved in?

Maybe…

Here, too. So there’s that!

Some seriously vintage okeydoke7 in this thread.

Most rejoice.

The gutless quiver.

 

[Azarole]

Should have been Round Three. Get it? Three? Tree? Ah well.

The only difference is that #goalzarole captured the imagination of the club, whereas sante is just sante.

Simpler times back then. Starting a coup was as simple as 51%.

Again, it wasn't a sinking ship. The clubs posters were all having fun. You ****ed off to try win some personal accolades, which enjoyably (for me) took you a very long time.

I reckon a good coup only really needs 20%... it's just about causing hysterics and angst.

Either 12 or 72 - not sure which.
