This sounds made up, next you tell me one day I'll even be an old

Well I do know that birthdays are good for your health - the more you have, the longer you live.

Morning Roys: looking forward to the week - well the next few days anyway. A mate and I are driving to Canberra on Saturday, so I might not be too active in here on the weekend.

Well done to Footypie32 for having a crack at doing the match threads. It's no easy task, so good on you mate.

Is driving to Canberra the public servants equivalent of a pilgrimage to Mecca? Or me visiting the Speights brewery when I went to NZ?

Hang loose, bruh.

 

[Ant Bear]

Hello Roys.

I hear you have a rookie, HinkleysHeroes , whom I first tried to lure to Sweet about 3 years ago.

I see you're not playing them, any chance of trading him for a soggy Sao?

Your intel is lacking.

SEASON 38 ROUND 6 - ROYS FFC V SIN CITY SWAMPRATS @ BRUNSWICK JUNCTION OVAL​

Oh my god! I'm doing the Match Threads for this week. I have no idea what I'm supposed to do. Why did I agree to this? It certainly doesn't feel like something I would do. Really, I should be banned from doing stuff like this. Chief should really install a pop-up that asks "Are you sure, bruv?" whenever I volunteer to do any extracurricular duties. It would be much safer that way. We really don't want important stuff like this falling into my hands. What kind of ridiculous league are you running here The Filth Wizard??

I don't know anything about these teams.

The Roys v Swamprats? What is this, some kind of weird "Man versus Wild Animal" documentary on Netflix? I will not be renewing my subscription if this is the kind of crap they're dishing up now. Bring back Mindhunter!

But if I check the ladder (how handsome is Falconista !) it appears the Roys (2-2) are just holding their spot in the top 8, after beating the Hawks last week.

The Swamprats (3-2) are just outside the top 4 based on percentage, after defeating the Dragons. Useful, factual information! See, now we're rolling.


PLAYERS TO WATCH

For the Roys, both _Mike_ and DERRINALPHIL kicked 3 goals last week, spreading the Dragon's defence thin.

SpecialBruce had a pretty special game, racking up 26 disposals and 2 goals, for 91DT points.

Over at the Swamprats, okeydoke7 was impressive, kicking a nice 6.2. I didn't really need to write this bit, I'm sure he'll let everyone know. Repeatedly.

Meanwhile, BloodySwan the guy that tried to retire, then chickened out, had a pretty good game. He had 30 disposals and kicked 2.3, for 105DT points.



I'm never doing this ever again.

Team Sheets are due by 11:59pm AWST Thursday​

Solid OP. 6 out of 10. Would have been 8 but presumably you had some sort of keyboard slip and mis-typed my name.

You mean you will be bored to sleep after 24hrs in Canberra.

Your intel is lacking.

Ok, Ok - you drive a hard bargain.

TWO soggy Saos.

Apologies Mobbs

 

[okeydoke7]

Anything less than 7 goals from me this week would be disappointing.

 

[Mooch]

Anything less than 7 goals from me this week would be disappointing.

I agree. Surely you should be aiming for 13? Did you hit 1000 yet?

 

[Mooch]

Apologies Mobbs

Praying isn't going to save you this week. You're no longer on my international dog day card list.

 

[Mobbs]

Ok, Ok - you drive a hard bargain.

TWO soggy Saos.

Closer! Surely you should be aiming for 13?

HinkleysHeroes do you think I'm over-pricing you at 13 Saos?

 

[Mobbs]

Praying isn't going to save you this week. You're no longer on my international dog day card list.

He IS praying to me tho, so there is that ...

Aloha from Hawaii

Which Island? How long are you there for? If you're on Oahu, get a Hula pie at Dukes & be sure to head up to the North shore.

I'm off to Maui later in the year.

Do we all have to pitch in for the second one? Or do you have this one yourself?
