[Ocha905]

Ocha905 certainly a best on ground performance that week, both on and off the field , and was no doubt the difference. Well done on a well deserved 3 votes

Millky95 and Test Tickle played their roles but the rest of us just didn’t provide enough support

It was pretty much the only thread I applied myself in this season so I’m not too embarrassed to get votes. That round was certainly the personal highlight of the season.
Despite the loss it might’ve helped spur your team on in the second half of the season too.

Season 37 Round 9

S37 R9 Fighting Furies 21.18 (144) defeat Dragons FFC 20.6 (126)

The leadup of this game was filled with drama after the Furies controversially failed to submit a team sheet during the week and copped a 4 point team penalty with a suspension to retiring coskipper omgfridge. On a cloudy day at rfctigerarmy's hippodrome the Furies began with the momentum, kicking 6 behinds in the opening 3 minutes before continuing to dominate for the first half resulting in a 41 point half time lead. The Dragons did lift in the second half, narrowing the margin to 9 points and 4 points at stages of the third and 4th quarters respectively but Furies responded each time and ended up shock 18 point winners. This game was full of brilliant individual performances. PhenomenalV1 (133 DT, 2 goals) was best on ground and did everything possible to keep the Dragons in it with the help of Greenery (114 DT, 3 goals) and Purple Jesus (103 DT). However the Furies had too many contributors including Grockadoc (111 DT, 2 goals), NaturalDisaster (109 DT, 1 goal), Edmund hunt (107 DT, 2 goals) and ShaunDuggan (4 goals, 4 behinds)

On a Muddy day at The Stadium In The Sky the Hawks kicked the opening goal before the Bears piled on 4 unanswered majors to take a 20 point lead at quarter time. The Hawks caught the Bears napping in the second term, piling on 3 straight goals whilst holding the Bears scoreless that term. The Hawks continued their momentum in the third term, snatching the lead in the final minute to take a narrow 4 point lead at the final change. The Bears regained the lead early in the final term but ran out of legs as the Hawks finished with a memorable 13 point victory. Big man Cap (4 goals) and GOAT Tarkyn_24 (3 goals) were both influential despite the conditions. Millky95 (52 DT) kept trying all day. vanders (3 goals, 73 DT, 5 tackles) put on a vintage display in a best on ground performance for the Hawks, and was probably the difference between the two teams.

S37 R9 Sin City Swamprats 14.15 (99) defeated by Gold City Royals 16.8 (104)

On a rare Warm day at Underground Stadium, the Swamprats got off to a dominant start but were left ruing inaccuracy as they took 10 point lead at the first break. The Royals found another gear as they clawed themselves back to within 2 points at the main change. They levelled the scores within the first 2 minutes of the third term before taking the lead in the third quarter. To the Swamprats' credit they overcame a 17 point final change deficit to level the scores early in the final quarter and lead by a point at the 15 minute mark. However back to back goals by Royals skipper Cadsky sealed the Royals' win as they held on despite a late goal to okeydoke7. Cadsky (101 DT, 2 goals, 9 tackles) was best on ground and combined well with Footypie32 (92 DT, 1 goal) and Brenton Davy (5 goals). For the Swamprats, GremioPower (92 DT, 2 goals) and okeydoke7 (4 goals) could hold their heads high despite the loss.

S37 R9 Mount Buller Demons 16.12 (108) defeated by Ophidian Old Boys 24.12 (156)

On a Cloudy day at the Snow Dome the Demons drew first blood before 4 straight goals to the Old Boys gave them an 18 point lead. The Demons reclaimed the margin at the 20 minute mark but 2 late goals to the Old Boys gave them a 11 point margin at the first change. The second term was similarly full of momentum swings with the Old Boys leading by as much as 30 points midway through the term but 2 late goals to the Demons brought the margin back to 12 points. After a hard fought third term that ended with just a 9 point lead to the Old Boys at the final change, this game was shaping up to be a thriller but the final quarter was all one-way traffic as the Old Boys kicked 8 goals to 2 en route to a shock 48 point win over the Demons. This game was full of brilliant individual performances. thewizardmelon (122 DT, 2 goals, 15 tackles) was best on ground but he was well supported by Elton Johns Wig (113 DT, 3 goals), Braklet (112 DT, 3 goals) and King Tenz (106 DT, 2 goals). For the Demons moginie (117 DT, 3 goals), Scythe94 (114 DT, 3 goals) , manangatang (6 tackles, 94 DT) and cats2rise (106 DT) were all dominant in a losing cause

S37 R9 Baghdad Bombers 7.4 (46) defeated by Roys FFC 12.3 (75)

On a Muddy day at Abdu Park, both sides initially struggled with the conditions with just 1 scoring shot in total in the first term resulting in a narrow 6 point lead to the Roys at quarter time. The Roys adjusted their game plan thereafter and found another gear, leading by 3 goals at half time and 29 points at the final change. To their credit, the home side held their own in the final term to draw the 4th quarter and salvage some pride en route to a 29 point loss to the Roys. It was an even team performance from the Roys with few standout performers though fitzroybowiedog (56 DT, 3 goals) , royboy2 (60 DT, 2 goals) and DERRINALPHIL (63 DT, 2 goals) were the standouts. Senior Bombers Pugsley (62 DT) and @VeinGlorious (66 DT) did everything they could to keep their side in it.

The Gumbies lifted in the second term, trimming the margin back to a manageable 5 points before continuing the momentum in the third term. They levelled the scores at the 20 minute mark before reclaiming the lead for the first time in the match at the 21 minute mark. Their superior fitness prevailed as they dominated the final term in route to a comeback 33 point win. dogs105 (110 DT, 19 hitouts) was best on ground for the Wonders as DenieD (53 DT, 4 goals) capitalised on the silver service. In the end the @Gumbies had too many star performers including beez (110 DT, 2 goals), Dory_77 (91 DT, 7 tackles), Barrybran (92 DT, 5 goals 4 behinds) and cats_09 (83 DT, 3 goals).

Season 37 Round 10

S37 R10 Gold City Royals 11.18 (84) defeated by Mount Buller Demons 13.12 (90)

On a Warm day at the Golden Throne the first quarter was an arm wrestle with both teams struggling with accuracy before the Demons lead by 8 points at quarter time. The home side found another gear as they claimed the lead for the first time in the match midway through the second term and kept a narrow 3 point lead at the main change. The Royals continued their momentum in the third term and kicked the first 3 goals of the third term with many more behinds as they soared to a 25 point lead. A steadying Demons goal at the 16 minute mark of the term proved to be the final goal in that term as the Demons trailed by 19 points at three quarter time. In the final term the Demons and Royals went goal for goal in the first half before 4 straight goals to the Demons including 2 by hero sausageroll within a minute gave the Demons a shock 5 point lead at the 20.48 mark. Ultimately the Demons held on for a comeback 6 point thriller leaving the Royals ruing their inaccuracy and asking many what if's. @sarahsmiles (123 DT, 1 goal, 25 kicks, 12 handballs) had leather poisoning and was best on ground. He was supported by Smartys Power (76 DT, 9 tackles) and Ulahoopski (91 DT). . Brenton Davy (66 DT) kicked 3 goals but could've easily had 10. The Demons had too many contributors including manangatang (92 DT, 2 goals), moginie (92 DT, 2 goals, 5 tackles) , sausageroll (4 goals, 4 behinds, 54 DT), Scythe94 (75 DT, 5 tackles) and cats2rise (80 DT).

S37 R10 Roys FFC 16.8 (104) defeated by Fighting Furies 16.12 (108)

On a Cloudy Day at Brunswick Junction Oval the Roys piled on 5 goals to 3 to take a handy 11 point lead (after leading by 17 points earlier in the quarter) over the struggling Furies. In the second term Furies then found another gear, trimming the margin back to just 2 points at the main change. The Third quarter was full of momentum swings with the furies claiming the lead for the first time in the game at the 5 point mark before the Roys piled on several unanswered goals to lead by 15 points at the 22 minute mark. Two late Furies goals brought the Furies back in it as the three quarter time margin was again just 2 points. The final term was shaping to be a thriller and it delivered. The Furies reclaimed the lead at the 13 minute mark but the Roys, to their credit, responded almost instantly. The Furies reclaimed the lead again at the 21 minute mark and overcame the demons of their their dramatic few weeks to hold on for a 4 point thrilling victory. The Furies had many star performers including Shueygod (119 DT, 11 tackles), Frothies Mcveigh (119 DT), Edmund hunt (106 DT), Frederico_WA (105 DT) and crazywildhorse (99 DT, 2 goals). Multiple roys could also hold their heads high including royboy2 (111 DT, 2 goals, 11 tackles), SpecialBruce (106 DT, 8 tackles) Mobbs (96 DT) and 3KZ is Football (96 DT)

On a Warm day at Ljp86's Lair the home side dominated both the first and second terms as the Dragons lead by 21 points at the first term and 29 points in the second term. The half-time spray from Ted Lasso worked as the Bears piled on 8 goals to 0 in third term in a 51 point turnaround that resulted in a shock 22 point Bears lead at the final change. The final quarter was very similar as the Bears continued the momentum, piling on another 6 goals whilst conceding just 1 en route to a comeback 53 point thrashing. Test Tickle (119 DT, 17 hitouts, 32 disposals) was best on ground for the Bears but was well supported by Tandy (96 DT, 1 goal) and RonnieRaven (93 DT, 1 goal) as big man Cap *7 goals, 60 DT) cashed in on the silver service. On a dark day for the Dragons Ljp86 (89 DT), Purple Jesus (88 DT) and Chief (82 DT) all tried their best in a losing cause.

S37 R10 Gumbies FFC 13.14 (92) defeated by Coney Island Warriors 17.14 (116) LINK

On a Cloudy Day at the House of Gumby the Warriors were desperate to snap their losing streak and were competitive in the first quarter against the Gumbies. The Warriors lead at times in the first term but in the end, the Gumbies had a 2 point advantage at the first break. The Warriors found another gear in a thrilling second term that featured multiple momentum swings with scores tied on two separate occasions. Ultimately the Warriors lead by a handy 15 point margin at half time before a hard fought second half which resulted in a 17 point advantage to the Warriors at the final change en route to an upset 24 point away victory against the reigning premiers. Senior warriors Tonga Bob (105 DT, 1 goal, 7 tackles) and pantskyle (103 DT, 7 tackles) combined well with talented youngster Ocha905 (88 DT, 1 goal, 7 tackles) and Piggy Smalls (92 DT) . For the Gumbies the performances of cats_09 (99 DT, 1 goal), Aucklander (4 goals), ossie_21 (93 DT, 11 tackles) and beez (82 DT, 2 goals) provided some silver linings despite the shock loss.

S37 R10 Sin City Swamprats 13.14 (92) defeat Baghdad Bombers 12.4 (76)

On a rare Rainy Day at the Underground Stadium the Swamprats defied the conditions as they piled on 5 goals and 7 behinds whilst holding the Bombers scoreless en route to a huge 37 point first term lead. The second and third terms were arm wrestles as the Swamprats extended their lead to 46 points at the main change before the margin reverted to 37 points for the final change. The Bombers finally came to play in the final term as they piled on 8 goals to 4 to trim the margin back to 16 points, but it was still a comfortable Swamprats victory on the back of the domination in the first half. It was an even team performance from the Swamprats lead by philreich (66 DT, 5 tackls) , My Cotchin Rules (62 DT) and Power Raid (68 DT) as okeydoke7 (4 goals) kicked a bag. Bombers MayTheNorthBeWithU (90 DT, 2 goals), Pugsley (84 DT, 4 tackles, 1 goal) and Grav (79 DT, 2 goals) were best on ground for the Bombers in a losing cause but unfortunately had little support from their teammates.

S37 R10 Ophidian Old Boys 15.8 (98) defeated by West Coast Wonders 16.10 (106)

On a Cloudy Day at Spotswood Oval this match this match was predicted to be a thriller and it went to script, with 6 goals apiece in the first term and a resulting 2 point lead to the Wonders at quarter time. The arm wrestle continued in the second term with the Old Boys levelling the scores at the 21.5 minute mark before a late behind gave them a narrow 1 point lead at the main change. The third quarter was similarly hard fought but this time it was the Wonders who ended up with a 5 point lead at the final change. The Wonders continued the momentum in the final term. After margins that had been within single digits upto that point, the Wonders kicked multiple goals in a row and lead by 32 points before the Old Boys mounted another comeback to trim the margin back to 6 points. Two late behinds helped the Wonders hold on for a memorable 8 point victory. thewizardmelon (112 DT, 9 tackles) was best on ground for the old boys and he was supported by JuddgementDay (81 DT), Robertio (78 DT) , kenneyswarriors (84) and Irish BlueBagger (84 DT). Ultimately the Wonders had too many contributors including dogs105 (110 DT, 6 tackles, 1 goal), Cubs2Lions (108 DT, 9 tackles), AnUltimateRessie (105 DT, 5 tackles) , ClarkeM (93 DT) and Pamcake1 (89 DT)

I don't receive any votes.

I'm 4 for 2 (4-4-2?) so far so I'm pretty happy with that. I suspect that will be all though. My second half of the season was nothing to write home about. Even with my new hockey stick pen.

Season 37 Round 11

Gumbies FFC 17.9.111 def Dragons FFC 15.10.100

Here we are mid-way through the season. The Gumbies are clinging on to a spot in the 8 after losing to the Wonders at home last week, while they Dragons are just outside on percentage. Partly because of a humiliating heavy home defeat at the hands of the Warriors.

Gumbies kicked away early thanks to Barrybran (6.1) and Mop (4.1) and despite the best efforts of Bonz who kicked a couple of his 5.2 before the main break. The Dragons couldn’t keep up with cats_09 in the ruck (15 hitouts) and around the ground (20 disposals) and tried several options without much success. Even though they weren’t getting first use of the ball, Greenery and freo84 tried hard to find their own. Both laid 6 tackles and they managed 31 and 22 disposals respectively. It was a tough game this one and ossie_21 and GWS Goose also laid 7 tackles each. BringBackTheAnchor chipped in with 4 goals but it wasn’t enough to take the points away from @Gumbianaland.

West Coast Wonders 15.6.96 def by Baghdad Bombers 16.9.105

Wonders are flying high only a win off the top, and had taken the points away from the Gumbies last week. The Bombers - strongest team in the comp at this point - were supporting the whole league after yet again not collecting any points from the unforgiving Rats.

In a fairly even game, The Wonders took the lead in the 2nd minute through Oisin_the_Goat (2.2 for the game) and led most of the day thanks to BFew (8 hitouts, 24 disposals, 2.1 goals), Cubs2Lions (24 disposals, 6 tackles, 2 goals) and Pamcake1 (24 disposals) getting plenty of ball in the midfield, and DenieD kicking 4.1 goals. Pugsley (27 disposals, 2 goals) and norway blue (23 disposals, 9 tackles) racn around and did their bit to keep the game competitive, and gab213 did Gab things with 4 goals, including one in the final run-in. But the unsung hero of the day was probably The Sultan. He did literally nothing for 3 quarters but then bobbed up with a couple of goals in the final quarter - just enough to see his team take the W.

Mount Buller Demons 11.9.75 defeated by Roys FFC 12.8.80

Demons and Roys were fighting it out for a spot in the 8, the latter holding such a position despite a heartbreaking 4-point loss at home to the Furies last week. The Demons were closing the gap after a similarly narrow win away at the struggling Royals. So this had all the hallmarks a good and even contest.

And so it proved to be. Well sort of. The Demons took the lead in the 2nd minute through Proper Gander (16 disposals, 1 goal) and never looked back. manangatang dominated in the ruck (11 hitouts, 23 disposals and a goal), cooney and Yakker were bringing down marks left and right and playing on quickly (cooney 19 touches, 9 marks, 2 goals, Yakker 19 touches, 7 marks and a goal), while sante kicked 3.2. But the Roys never gave up hope. Mobbs was outstanding with 28 disposals and 3KZ is Football had 20 and kicked a goal. Ed_Gein was having none of Cooney’s and Yakker’s nonsense and took 12 marks of his own (20 disposals). While sante kicked the last of his hat-trick in the 8th minute of Q4, that was to be the final Demons goal. But the real story of the day was JackNah_8. After taking 19 touches through the game, she was pushed forward in the final turn. She kicked the her first with a little over 10 minutes to go and she kicked her third to put the Roys in front with 4 minutes on the clock. It was the first time the Roys had been in front and it was the last score of the game.

East Side Hawks 16.15.111 def Ophidian Old Boys 11.6.72

Fresh off the bye, the Hawks were looking fresh and hoping to improve on their 5th spot against ladder leaders Old Boys, who had found themselves on the wrong end of a narrow loss at the hands of the improving Wonders last week.

The started off full of promise with each side kicking 3 goals in the first quarter with the Hawks taking a 1-point lead into the break. In the second Harvey Manfrenjensenden kicked the first of his 3 goals but that was to be the only score for his team for another 20-odd minutes. Strigoi made the ruck contest a one-horse race (9 hitouts, 22 disposals, 7 tackles), giving his midfield plenty of first-use - Zoops helped himself to 24 touches - and feeding prolific forwards Tarkyn_24 (5.3 goals) and TY24 (3.1). For the Ophag ….Ophli …. Obsi ….For the opposition, Iva Bigun (25 disposals and a goal) and King Tenz (24 disposals) ran all day and tried to get their team going. But even 4 goals from Mrs Turbo couldn’t even get the supposed top side within 6 goals of the home team.

Fighting Furies 23.11.149 def Sin City Swamprats 17.13.115

On paper this looked like being a tough day out for the struggling Furies on their home track against the flying high Swampies. Having said that, their win last week at the BJO would have given them some confidence, while the Rats coasted to victory over the lowly Bombers.

It’s a good job games are not played on paper because - mismatch or no mismatch - this was a cracking game on grass. The teams swapped goals for two and a half quarters, with the margin never more than a couple of goals. damicky was awesome in the ruck (19 hitouts, 20 disposals, 4 goals) but despite getting first touch on the ball, it was Frothies Mcveigh (36 disposals, 3 goals), Edmund hunt (29 disposals, 10 marks, and a goal), and crazywildhorse (31 disposals) who kept the ball on string. They wouldn’t even share it with their teammates - Shueygod had to go and lay 12 tackles to boost his 22 disposal stat count. philreich (24 disposals) and GotTheGoodes (26 disposals, 11 marks, 4 tackles) worked their butts off all day and helped Jewelsbon to snag 5 goals. But in the end, the Furies somehow ran away with the game in the final quarter, thanks largely to 5 goals each from Frederico_WA and ShaunDuggan.

Coney Island Warriors 4.10.34 def by Gold City Royals 13.7.85

The last game of the round was between two of this season’s strugglers. The Royals were still in the doldrums after an agonising 1-goal loss at home to the Demons, while the Warriors had helped their cause somewhat with a decent win over the Gumbies. The bookies couldn’t separate these but gave a marginal edge to the Royals. There was no smart money on the Warriors at this stage.

This game really lived down to its billing. The Warriors look like they are desperate for another spoon this year and the Royals were just about good enough to help them in their cause. The Filth Wizard kicked an early goal for the Warriors and that just seemed to upset the Royals. Brenton Davy (3.1 goals) and@ Cadsky (3.0) took over to help the Royals to a 4 goal lead at the first change. The Warriors only kicked 4 goals for the game, so coming back from this was always going to be a struggle. pantskyle got 16 touches and 6 tackles, while handball-happy TheInjuryFactory had 19 - 15 of them by hand. The real problem for Coney Island was their wayward forwards - The Filth Wizard 1.5, zackah 1.3, spudmaster 1.2. Only Snuffaluphagus didn’t blot his copybook but will hardly be popping the champagne at his 1.0 return. For the Warriors, Smartys Power and Nothing had 14 disposals each.

After a big win at Dragon Island last week, the Bears would have cut frustrated figures having to sit out this week. Having a rest can be a stressful experience at times.
