Official Match Thread Season 30, Round 16: Gold City Royals vs Gumbies FFC @ The Golden Throne (MOTR)

[omgfridge]

Hello gumbies. This reminds of the time when my daughter was younger and she woke me up in the middle of the night saying "daddy guess how old I am!"

I was half asleep, and said "I don't know sweetie... how old are you"

To which she promptly held up four fingers and then skipped off back to bed and went to sleep.

I lay there for the rest of the night wide awake, wondering where she got those fingers from.

Didn't we verse philreich last week?

Imagine putting six blokes up against Rodney Dangerfield and still losing. That is your privilege this week. Enjoy it Royals.

You seem to have a bit of a short memory Baz, so let me remind you where you came from and how you got here.

Back in Round 5, your season had started in familiar fashion and you were stuck at the bottom of the ladder - a familiar territory. You were once again the butt of everyone's jokes and the chief subject of everyone's mockery. Your full forward was at the time the most notoriously shithouse Qooty player of the last 10 seasons at a minimum, maybe even longer. Your club had nothing in the trophy cabinet except more wooden spoons season on end, and in Season 30 it looked like the cycle of misery would continue.

That was until I made this post in respect to Rodney Dangerfield that marked the death of the old shithouse Spudney that Blacky easily disposed of, and the next week he was reborn as a dominant goal kicking machine. As the weeks rolled by, one by one you conquered those who previously mocked and sneered at your perpetual inferiority on the back of the new legend known as Rodders. Before I gave you him, you won nothing, you had nothing, you were nothing.

On top of that, last season I said NaturalDisaster would become the next admin and then the impossible happened. Surely the only possible explanation for the precise timing of all of these crazy events is that I am really a divine figure capable of bending reality to my will.

If that's anything to go by, it would probably be wise of you to avoid testing fate and mocking me. In fact, I should probably receive the entire allocation of Gumbies Beez votes as gratitude for breaking the Rodney and Gumbies curses at the same time.

But but but, Tony Lynn 15 assures me it was all the Bombers doing!

Let's see just how good you are then KP. Project the S30 flag for the Gumbies.

Hey mate

Good to hear you cut your teeth at the Royals. Glad you’re enjoying the league.

This post really annoys me.

And you knew it would really annoy me.

Well done.

Yeah yeah, very good Philre......

Damn you fridge.

Not on my watch

 

[okeydoke7]

Holy sh*t, you're still alive

This might only be the 2nd or 3rd match thread I’ve posted in.

I checked into the league the other day and read a few bits and pieces. I was nostalgic. Although I can’t commit to any guaranteed ‘comeback’ to activity - I must say I’m enjoying tuning back in.

 

[Barrybran]

It won't matter. You can't read it anyway.

Wtf has Blacky been telling you people? First I can't dress myself, now I can't read.

Generally, mere mortals aren't in a bargaining position with gods.

I already showed you that I perform miracles. I cured Rodney Dangerfield of his spudosy, I decreed NaturalDisaster admin before he even knew he was going to apply. If you want to go really back before your time just ask Golumless how his career as a full forward ended by kicking 0 goals 3 behinds in consecutive weeks after I said he would.

I've done the equivalent of walk on water and feed a large crowd with 5 loaves and 2 fish. You've seen it happen before your eyes, whether you want to believe it is up to you.

The first step is admitting you have a problem

and yet you still made Ant Bear an admin...

You can run on water for all I care. Just show me the flag.

 

[Kennedy Parker]

The committee elected Ant Bear to become admin.

But it's yet another occasion where I've been vindicated. During AB's tenure he empowered to committee to take the reigns in opposition to him. His administration directly influenced the return of brahj and led #scandal to double in thread size.

The league is more active than ever, SoO continued to thrive, HOF selection stayed with special committees, Heritage Round remains a strong institution, the veto and tribunal have proven extremely useful functions, and democracy in the SFA was preserved.

What's the issue ND? It looks if anything like my legacy is stronger than ever.

 

[Kennedy Parker]

If I tell you it won't happen. You'll just need to take a leap of faith...

In the form of 200 beez votes from the Gumbies thanks.

I'm not sure you understand how an exchange works

Sure a flag will be a nice comeback gift

On a scale of one to Christian Porter, how f’ed are the Royals this week?

On a scale of one to Christian Ponder, how successful are the Gumbies?

I'm not sure you understand what kind of product you're using.

This thread is a veritable who's who of the Season 15 Vic Metro State of Origin team.

Except they're telling me to go **** myself. So nothing has changed.
