Official Match Thread SEASON 37 ROUND 1: OPHIDIAN OLD BOYS vs LAS VEGAS BEARS @ SPOTSWOOD OVAL

[DenieD]

Welcome one and all to the 37th season of Sweet-FA. The league where we make up insane stuff and hope people like it. A new year, a new admin, and the same old qooty game we know and love. What joy!


Ophidian Old Boys versus Las Vegas Bears

The wooden spooners of last season are coming up against the Grand Finalists in this epic round 1 clash. Ophidian will be hoping they didn't breach any rules during squad submission, while the Bears will be hoping their new Chip on their shoulder is exactly what they need to go one better this season and grab that premiership cup.

New Recruits to Watch

thewizardmelon : The ex-Phoenix captain has made his first change of club by moving to none other than Ophidian. The team sheet (that the Old Boys have already put in well in advance) has melon slated to be the ruck rover and main man in the middle of the qooty field. We'll see if he handle the pressure and the heat.

King Tenz : The rookie sensation from the Dragons was a hot commodity and big talking point of last season. 'Where was he going?' well he ended up right here at Spotswood with the Old Boys. A very adept qooty player already, averaging more than 17 disposals and 5 marks a game last season. We'll see if King Tenz can keep improving even further in his second season.

DemurePrincess was another rookie from last season that caught the eye of the Old Boys recruitment staff. Will they flourish under new leadership this season? We'll see...


Chipmunk : The surprising return of the Chip has sent shockwaves through Sweet-FA. Like the second coming of Jesus, the little furry animal descended back down from the general discussion board to play qooty once again. A big player and big time poster. Will be a huge watch this season to see how he fits in at the Bears.

Tip: Old Boys have some big ins so it will be closer than people think, but I still believe Bears will come out on top. Bears by 13


Captains please submit your team sheets by midnight Thursday​

How much for the club to upgrade to Silver? Still a step down for me but I like these people

Hi OOB's, good luck for the season. Hopefully both clubs are playing finals this season.

All club levels are reviewed by the OOB Board of Directors at the end of the season. Clubs can be elevated for a number of reasons such as we had fun with them during the season, support in committee voting matters, giving the Captain incentives without anyone at Spotswood knowing

Hi OOB's, good luck for the season. Hopefully both clubs are playing finals this season.

And have 0 points taken off them!
