Hey Royals, I've made sure our match thread goes up on Sunday morning so you, like us, don't have to spent too much time with PMBangers.
Cheers, Suns

I actually like PMBangers. His Top Ten Thursdays and 20 Question Tuesdays have been a godsend.

They named a team after some guy named Roy.

It was actually two very close guys. Roy Fitzpatrick and Patrick Fitzroy.

Bloody Juggalo

 

[Smartys Power]

Lol @ winning 3 in a row and making absolutely zero progression on the ladder.

What are you talking about? We've progressed from 2nd last all the way to 3rd last on the ladder!

 

[Marlowe]

Thanks to the Demons' greatness and the Gumbies' ineptitude levelling out the rest of the Sweet FA, we're one win from 2nd after starting 0-4.

It's possible by the end of next week, there will be EIGHT teams 4-4 all tied for third.

With yourself, nahnah , spookism being fed by the No 1 Ruck GreyCrow and with Fitzey and I on the flanks, anything is possible...

And The Filth Wizard in form, dangerous side.

And The Filth Wizard in form, dangerous side.

Yeah I guess.... but that's an impressive Mid line

 

[Fitzey]

Yeah I guess.... but that's an impressive Mid line

Yeah Filth is just taking credit for the midfield domination, no doubt about it

 

[The Filth Wizard]

Yeah Filth is just taking credit for the midfield domination, no doubt about it

I mean, I did set up the dominoes…

 

[krakouers]

As usual, its all won or lost in the middle, we don't let the forwards think they win it

I blame us for a couple of the losses at least.

SO here we are, 3 on the trot on our quest for the most consecutive wins. I was going to do the joke like last week about 'IF you had told me 3 weeks ago we'd win 3 more for the season I would've been thrilled!', but it'll get tiresome when we're celebrating my 400th and up to our 340th or something in a row. Anyway, we can continue this, the flag is ours and I've already bulk booked our tattoo appointments for the premiership celebrations, so exciting

It was an enjoyable week of pleasant banter with a lot of Roys stalwarts such as Mobbs and Wosh, with some dribble from that McGibblets bloke, it's amazing how many home owners are in this team, truly that Royals generational wealth is a sight to behold.

We never really looked like giving the lead up once we got it, for the first time all season I felt safe at quarter time, it helps when daddy filth decides to kick 7 of course, and on that it's about ****ing time. For 7 straight weeks spookism has given a list of 100 unique reasons, each more compelling than the last, to play him at full forward, and all this time I've had to say 'no spooks, I have no power' but finally I can say Filths in too good of form to move, that'll keep him safe for another 98 games

I'm increasingly more impressed with our backline each week, this game I was subbed off and registered donuts, which I'm sure a better captain would see as a sign but I'm persisting, I just know I have a spot in this stackedsix to play! Smartys Power registered the biggest numbers of all but we just controlled the airways in a ridiculous fashion. GreyCrow hit 100 hit outs for the season exactly which is really satisfying, whilst Engimal v3 and CakeEater tore the rosy half back line a new one

Round 8 sees us travel to Baghdad which is always fun. For those that don't know, baghdad is in a galaxy far far away and it's where the fun begins. It's filled with Sand, I hate sand, it's coarse and it's rough and it gets everywhere. Of course there are locals, they speak, but as we know the ability to speak does not make you intelligent. Regardless, treat it like a zoo or a Frankston/ Pakenham line train station, don't stare at the locals and don't linger any longer than you have to
