TheGoatBaron 7 goals 5. Gotta work on your accuracy but that's pretty handy in a Qualifying Final!

 

[GreyCrow]

Well done Roys - enjoy the week off

Next one Royals - lets be up and about

serial_thrilla thank you for posting

 

[Mooch]

serial_thrilla thank you for posting

Ah crap do we have a week off now? We seem to have had loads of those recently.

Anyhoo what a game Roys! And thanks for the week Als. Best of look next week and we might see you in the GF.

 

[Brenton Davy]

Kicks 5 to early in the 3rd - gets dragged!

Like, WTAF?!?!?!

Anyway good week Roys and good luck for the rest of the finals. Thanks for posting serial_thrilla

Now to go and find out which idiot pulled that switch…

 

[TheGoatBaron]

TheGoatBaron 7 goals 5. Gotta work on your accuracy but that's pretty handy in a Qualifying Final!

Will kick 10 in a Grand Final.

 

[windyhill]

 

[Cadsky]

Well that's pretty disappointing, Royals. After an excellent season being the form team of the comp the second half of the season we dish that shit up. Seems we've chosen the long way to premiership success.

Well done Roys. Fair to say you guys have had our measure this season. I'd say best of luck, but I still hold out hope we can bring this home. Thanks for the week though, it was enjoyable.

We'll just have to front up again next week.

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Well that was awesome

Thanks for a really fine and very entertaining week Royals, I had an absolute blast !

Well done Gorillas, we are going to party like Donkey Kong !

Thanks for hosting serial_thrilla !

 

[Cadsky]

Offensively we didn't play too bad, but we had zero defensive accountability today. Too many Roys got.off the chain. Will need to.work on that for next week.

 

[Footypie32]

I blame Mobbs and his bloody pre-game rev up. Shouldn't be allowed to be all inspirational like that!

Apologies to Brenton Davy Feels like the rest of the team let you down a bit. 5 goals in a final is fine work.

Thanks for the week Roys.

 

[Cadsky]

GreyCrow Zevon Membling Footypie32 Brenton Davy. So many guys had a good game and can hold their heads high regardless of the result. The scoreline is flattering to be honest.

The only person who needs to apologise is the dill that dragged me early in the 3rd…

 

[Aristotle Pickett]

Be back in a moment - my goldfish is indicating that he'd like to go out for a walk.

 

[Mobbs]

What a performance! So proud of my guys and girls. No idea how I can legitimately get back into the team at this point. And I dunno if I wanna, 'cause it was truly a sight to be hold from the dugout watching the troops dominate pretty much all over the ground today, on a day we needed to do just that!

TheGoatBaron not much else I can say - you asked for Full Forward mid-season and you have overpaid. royboy2 what an inspiring effort on the ball! SpecialBruce playing the support wasn't far behind. And seriously, I am gonna need to look through our stats to find the last time Roylion had a 100DT game - I feel like his passion fuelled the team into some kind of overdrive!

But a great performance from everyone! That's a team that can go far, and will! I've already been paid a thousand times over for picking up the reins this season, and you all just keep on delivering!

Royals, well, I guess you just put in a bit of a stinker. There were signs for sure, loved MrPremiership 's efforts and GreyCrow held down the ruck against a hardworking DERRINALPHIL . Brenton Davy played like crap and still pulled in a bag of goals while having the wood over _Mike_ , which shows just how powerful he can be when he has a GOOD day!

Zevon you are a class act and kept williamsing the ball out of the centre stoppages with those slick handballs, great game (we know where you learnt how to play!). Still loved those two misses though - the second one was hilarious because it looked like the only opportunity your team had to momentarily stop the rot. But well done, a strong game and worthy of a vote I reckon.

Cadsky leading the troops through myriad possessions and tackling exactly half of our entire team! That's a bloke who won't stop trying and will not rest until those beside him get back up off the canvas as well. Congrats on a strong season so far and you'll probably be back to see us again in 3 weeks so I won't get too cocky just yet.

serial_thrilla arrghhh it went so fast ahaha but I get that its a cloudy day so way more transactions and more to get through. I loved your choice of separations and added notation and thank you for kicking in with the commentary today! Usually when I see you've tagged me I shit my pants and today I wasn't playing so I really did miss a chance to see your lighter side

Thanks to the sim team for making the game possible, and well, will Blacky let us into the bar or are we kicked out of the suburb?

I'd not disagree with this. I think we certainly hit our straps today, rather than Royals having a particularly low day.

We are both the only teams who play on astrocarpet btw, so our grounds dont offer as much of a home team advantage as can be the case with other clubs.

 

[JackNah_8]

Good game!

 

[SpecialBruce]

I knew I would deliver.

 

[Mobbs]

Roylion 's last 100+ Dreamteam game was in Season 12 v the Wonders

 

[Mobbs]

I knew I would deliver.

It wasn't easy to get noticed among an entire team of high performers today, but you definitely did place highly again!
