Official Team Thread Gold City Royals - Season 19 Best 'n' Fairest Last Night (Why Marlowe, Why?)

Remove this Banner Ad

I'm honestly happy to play anywhere on the ground, have never had this many laughs on a Sunday night in a long time. Really enjoying being a part of the Royals, so glad i chose this team to join.

Just be warned with us our luck might change at any moment, so enjoy it while you can!

Definitely the best couple of wins we've had since I've been here though. A special feeling in the air. :)
 
The good news is that we have the Swamprats next week who we have a 5-1 record against. If you're allergic to goats, that's the bad news.

We're also playing for the Golden Rat, which we've has for a while, and we won't let them get it back.

They've been in some great form as well the past couple of weeks, beating them in their current form will really set up our season.

Don't think they've beaten us since my rookie year, like my second game. :cool:

Correct. They won the first encounter and since then we've won 5 straight.

We do well against everyone named either Swamprats or Warriors or Wonders. 11-5 against those three. Like, 12-34 against everyone else. But we will be 4-1 next week, and with the shortened season, all we will have to do is play to our career win percentage, pull out four wins in the last ten weeks, and we're playing finals. But I am not too pessimistic to not have already ordered a S19 ceremonial premiership banner. I think this is our time.
 
Royals career stats after round 4 Season 19. If Speck or anyone else can teach me pivot tables I may be able to spruce it up for you.

Statistics demonstrate that 3KZ is Football is a ball magnet. Highest average disposals per game in history of The Gold City Royals. Trend set to continue according to his player manager Tricky Dickson.
"Coming to the Royals has elevated 3KZ is Football to a new level of elite. I know he puts it down to the quality of his teammates, but I think it has everything to do with his youth, energy and desire to be the best he can."

Or you know, the bloke that's palming it down your throat every week :)
 
We've got some very accurate goal kickers round here. Juggs with 10 goals 2 for the season, bgt2110 yet to miss and I'm at 77%

While everybody is watching me you're just slotting them through :thumbsu:
 
Here we go guys, finals are now a distinct possibility. You've all been great in the match threads and it's finally transformed to on field success.

I'll do my reviews of rounds 2-4 some time next week, and hopefully Speck has the stats up by then. :p

Go Royals.:thumbsu:
It's coming, I've done most of them just have been lazy uploading. :p

We're now at 4-1 with finals very real.

I've done a sneaky edit to our club v club history. Notice how we now have a 50% ratio at the Throne. :D

Gumbies loss means we keep a tight grasp on third.

Practice reciting these words: "we're third on the ladder after five rounds". Haha ...what? Holy s**t.

We have the Bandits next week which means another team we can reign in and get back to level terms in the head to head.
 
Looking forward to having a win of more than a few goals so i can actually enjoy reading through our match commentary without being so anxious. If we aren't coming back from some huge deficit we are in a very close match. Not complaining , we are winning and it feels great. :)

We'll play 4 quarters soon enough. The last 3 is what seems to be counting for us so far and I'd rather be great in the last 3 than the first 3.

This has been our best season, not because we're winning, but because all of our games are so exciting and go right down to the wire. Okay, the winning helps. But at any point in the past three seasons, we would be down by 3 goals at half-time, and then inevitably wind up losing by 180. There was rarely any reason to continue reading past a certain point because you knew what the result would be. This season, however, is different, magical almost, but I agree, would love to win coast-to-coast with a margin of victory large enough to boost our percentage.

I think we are winning because we have started to BELIEVE!
