Furies get over the line in classic.

The Sin City Swamprats looked to start this milestone year with a win over the Fighting Furies who themselves wanted to start the season solidly in their search to be the #firsttofive .

In a game that featured an impressive eight rookies between both teams , Swamprat MannumPower lead the charge through the banner in his 100th game in the SweetFA.
Furies started strong, kicking three goals in six minutes. The Swamprats, then woke up and dobbed the next three major to level the scores. A thrilling opening quarter ended with the scores tied after the teams both scored another goal.

The second quarter was an tussle with the Furies and Swamprats going goal for goal until the home team snuck a couple of late goals ending up leading at half time by 10 points by scoring 8.2 (50) to 6.4 (40).

The Swamprats kicked an early goal after the long break before the Furies kicked three goals in the space of two minutes prompting some concern from the Swamprat faithful, while the small band of Furies supporters who had made the trip were going into raptures. The Swamprats then decided to switch on and in the final ten minutes of the quarter they had four different goal scorers to kick 4.2 to 0.0 and the go into the last break with a handy 21 point lead.

An early goal to the Furies kept their hopes up while the Swamprats struggled to keep control of the game. Two mores goals to the Furies left the Furies only 2 points down with 10 minutes still on the clock. A steadying goal for the Swamprats by toxic was quickly overturned by the last minute signing Tarkyn_25 minutes later and the game edged slowly towards the final siren. BILC kicked a goal with three minutes to put the Furies up by four points before Swamprats player AusHorrorStory had a chance to still the game on the siren before ultimately missing with Furies opening the season with a three point victory in a classic start to the season.

Best players for the Furies were peterbuch74 (21 disposals, 8 marks, 2 goals), Shadowman (13 Hitouts, 18 disposals, 1 goal), Gentlemen (24 disposals, 5 tackles), Codym2723 (22 disposals, 8 marks, 1 goal) and This Is Anfield (29 disposals, 3 marks, 2 tackles). BILC and Tarkyn_24 both kicked 3 goals.

Best players for the Swamprats were I Dont Care (29 disposals, 8 tackles, 2 goals), Spookism (30 disposals, 9 marks, 6 tackles, 1 goal) , Millky95 (16 Hit outs, 23 disposals, 1 goal), Quadzilla (24 disposals, 4 marks) and Schulzenfest (19 disposals, 9 marks). toxic , Wingard2Wines and Jonts all kicked 2 goals.

FIGHTING FURIES - ROUND ONE REVIEW!

Well, well, well, didn't S20 kick off in spectacular fashion with a down to the wire, heart in mouth, nail biting, ****ing drawn out too long :mad: and squeaky bumming 3 point win over the brave, oh so very brave, Sin City Swamprats.
images

A devastated toxic after the game.

images

Furie celebrations raged all night.

A huge shout out to spookism and the rest of the Rats for a hugely enjoyable week, we really enjoy playing against you lot as you take it all as seriously as we do, lol.
The game itself was a classic, the Furies kicked the first three but were soon overhauled, the game then became a seesaw affair until the Swampies looked like winners but the Furies never gave in and snatched a thrilling win at the end, only fair really.:thumbsu::p

MATCH HIGHLIGHTS:

1 : 9.3 {C} - This Is Anfield slowing down the play.
1 : 9.34 {C} - Watch out! Oh! Spookism has laid This Is Anfield out flat.
1 : 17.32 {C} - This Is Anfield is crunched in a tackle.
1 : 17.36 {C} - Spookism has it.
4 : 6.47 {C} - This Is Anfield crunched by Spookism! This Is Anfield very slow to get up
A brave This Is Anfield kept his eyes on the ball all game despite being sniped and king hit by that thug, spookism, who should get ten weeks! :mad:

1 : 18.34 {FF} - Tarkyn_24 makes an offer.
1 : 18.38 {FF} - Tarkyn_24 is caught under pressure and knocks the ball forward.
1 : 18.42 {FF} - With the ball is Tarkyn_24.
1 : 18.48 {FF} - Tarkyn_24 from thirty metres.
1 : 18.52 {FF} - Miraculous goal to Tarkyn_24
Tarkyn_24's first Furie goal, on his way to this season's ALF, is goal of the year.

2 : 10.55 {rHFF} - Handballs over the top to Wacky Tiger.
2 : 10.58 {rHFF} - Long shot at goal from Wacky Tiger.
2 : 11.03 {rHFF} - Should have lowered his eyes.
Oh dear, a lowlight.

Sin City Swamprats 14.5.89 lost to The Fighting Furies 14.8.92.

THE "I'LL MAKE SURE WACKY TIGER DOESN'T WIN" FURIE OF THE YEAR AWARD.

This totally unbiased, and extremely prestigious, award is based on posting and qootying.
This week we had a excellent turn out of 15 posters led by Helen Wheels (early Nuffers award favourite) 80, tigland 62, SpudsLoveChild 55, This Is Anfield 48 and Wacky Tiger 37.

1 vote: Helen Wheels - great debut in the match thread with 80 entertaining posts.
2 votes: SpudsLoveChild - 55 posts and 22 possies and a goal, no second year blues for Spudley.
3 votes: This Is Anfield - 48 posts and 29 quality possies. :D
 
Massive congrats to new recruit Tarkyn_24 who with his first goal as a Furie and subsequent 2 more goals has moved into outright 1st on the ALL time SFA leading goal kicking award.

Congrats Tarks and heres to many many many more goals for you from here on in in the quest for #firsttofive
