oh and spookism I will use as many decimal points as I god damn want.

I saw the decimal points and my first thought

was - "Mother ****er"
Well played on knowing exactly what I was going to say...

"Chipped in". I'll have you know that last week I:

Invented Proffesor Farkenstein.
Discovered the Dark Energy particle.
Nailed the Hawks captain to the wall.
Had Filthy nominate one of my posts as amongst the best he's seen on SFA.
Helped perpetuate the miggs "who are you" meme.
Owned oddhawk after the siren getting him to call for a re-sim.
Am in a strong position in the Pokemon game.
Got lynched.
And all that while not touching the ball a single time.

"Quality".

:p

If it had come from anyone else other than Filthy, you might have been onto something there.
He's tainted meat now...

Remember 3 seasons ago when Filthy tried to kill the Swamprats and failed miserably?

And as a direct result of that we are now stuck with the Vanilla Dragons and we are one of the most active, positive sides around.
 
What the hell happened there?
S18 into S19 the Swamprats weren't a dominant team that we are now. spookism had Noobz0r set up to become the next Seamprats captain but The Filth Wizard signed up a bunch of players to his team to form a "new world order" of qooty teams. It looked like in S18 the Rats would fold. But some decent recruiting in S19 and S20 made us one of if not the strongest side off the field in the league

At the time the Swamprats were probably in a worse off-field position than any of the 'inactive' teams going around right now, with something like 5 active posters and struggling to draw any recruits. spookism was captain and Noobz0r was the Swamprat's shining light, The Filth Wizard came in and poached him and for a little while it looked like the Rats really weren't going to survive. ClarkeM stepped in and helped recruit 2 rookies, one of whom is Millky95, from then on we've brought in decent rookies every offseason since and here we are.
 
Round 2 vs Mount Buller Demons: Match Statistics

Screen Shot 2016-08-12 at 10.57.34 PM.png
  • Ant Bear leads the team for total Kicks (along with Quadzilla) , Handballs, Tackles, Frees For, and Dream Team Points
  • Power Raid and Sublime are equal leaders for total Marks with 10 each
  • Power Raid also giving away the most Frees Against
  • Gray Day has continued his good form up forward to bring his tally to 8 Goals
Also realised that I haven't put in a disposals column. I'm too lazy to go add in another column and format it so if you want disposals just add your kicks and handballs or click here and find your name.

Noobz the shining light? Back then I was virtually the only Rat taking teams on in the game threads. Search them. And I made a mockery of this 'New World Order' with my peerless banter

Yeah, in reality it was you and Power Raid that kept the club afloat. Noobz at the time had a big reputation at the time and you guys were starting out which made the nwo thing a big deal. They talked a big game but really delivered little as their recruits turned out inactive, hence they failed.

Yes, me and Power Raid in the match threads, where it mattered. Posters are judged on their 'media threads' that's where 'good rep' comes from in this league. I disagree, it's at the coalface in the game threads where boys and girls get separated from the men and women

In my opinion, match threads are the main game as you're engaging directly with the opposition,you've made it once you establish a strong presence in those. Being able to write a good media thread would elevate you faster as you get more exposure to the league but it's not really something that you have to do to be a good poster. It's more of bonus and suited to posters who have already established themselves in the league.

It's the reason you two were my last Captain's Award recipients.

Looking back, it was humourous to see Ant Bear with a diminutive 2.85 posts per week in S18. What sort of monster have we created!?
My memory is that I barely posted in the second half of the season, because goats.

But you were entirely fine with squids and octopi in S20?
 
Not the best result yesterday, especially as it was the Bears we lost too - almost as bad as the Warriors.

Ant Bear , Butler . miggs and Quadzilla were solid.
And a smattering of double goal scorers in Gray Day , Cloud_ , sportsmaniac89 and Power Raid



And Minties , you really need to get over your SM hate - we need that man on the pitch. Could of been the difference yesterday if not for #freekickbears

We will bounce back next week, cause we gotta!

I don't believe we need SM on the field. He's simply not a mature player at this stage and my LYLO hypoclaim is that his ill discipline would cost us more games. To change the game plan now would be BaM as it would go away from the game plan after only one loss. I'm not going to panic.

Also, I'm developing a strong scumread on the umpires and I will need to ask some serious questions to the umpiring department this week.
