Dragons v West Coast Wonders

Last time they met:

Dragons FFC 19. 16. (130) defeated West Coast Wonders 13. 4. (82)

The S17 Grand Final rematch in Rd 3 saw the Dragons come out firing to avenge their Grand Final loss from the previous season. With the admin duties of his shoulders boncer34 proved unstoppable scoring 5 goals 4 behinds for the victors. jenny61_99 (29 disposals, 1 goal) and chefmeister (22 disposals, 2 goals) were far too good for the Wonders who seemed were still in party mode.

For the Wonders HaroCant ll tried hard all day for his 26 disposals and whilst looking like he had no idea why he was even there EKA kicked 3 sausage rolls for the afternoon.

A loss here and its curtains for the Wonders in S18 whilst the Dragons would be chasing a nice little percentage booster to keep in check with the top 4.

The Wonders don’t often have these long stretches of bad Qooty so it wouldn’t surprise me to see an upset here.

Wackys Tip: Wonders by 17 pts

Good luck to both sides and make sure your captains name an ‘Official Team Sheet’ and tag Logger before 23:59 this Friday.
 
If ever there was a game for the Dragons to be worried about going into the finals it would be this one.

Wonders have some real quality posters on every line… Will be monumental for the out of form Dragons to get up in this slog-fest...

Omg, someone actually said something good about us this season!

Start setting up your Christmas tree, prepare a plate of choc mint cookies and strawberry milk, sit by the fire and wait for my Christmas present.

I may have to do some promotional work for Christmas ads for Woolies just to afford the gift wrappings.

I'll probably start in a couple weeks.

Thanks but I don't celebrate Christmas or take praise very well.

Perhaps send it to your teammates in appreciation if you think they would appreciate it more. It's never too late to give up on them, you know. :)

Even more reason to bond with your buds. Or give up on them. Wait. What side of the fence do you sit on again?

C'mon Dragons. A win here will help the Wonders go from Premiers to Woodenspooners in the space of a season.

So why should we help them achieve the inevitable..?

Don't worry, he's totally coming back next week. Gotta spend this week self-flagellating on the Swans board.

We need to get the message into thier heads, that they are going to loose. There is too much hope at the Wonders, they will still think they can win the Grand Final from last spot.

I'm always loose.

Loosey goosey baby, loosey goosey.

pantskyle, he's talking s**t about bear puns. Paw form, Danoz. Paw form.

Just making my point about knowing that this thread will dragon more and more true. :(

At least the Wonders can kickstart our undefeated run to the finals against the Dragons. Hopefully this game is as exciting for us as the Grand Final was last year.
