Official Match Thread Season 36 Round 10 - Coney Island Warriors v Mount Buller Demons @ Van Cordlandt Park

[philreich]

vs

Let's start with a bit of humour:

A man is sitting at home alone when he hears a knock on the front door. He opens it to find two sheriff's deputies there. He asks if there is a problem.

One of the deputies asks if he is married. He says, "Yes, I am."

The deputy then asks if he could see a picture of the man's wife.

The guy says, "Sure," and gets a photo to show them.

The deputy says, "I'm sorry, sir. But it looks like your wife's been hit by a truck."

The guy replies, "I know, but she has a great personality and is an excellent cook."

Welcome to this round 10 fixture, to be held at Van Cordlandt Park. It's 1 v 9, but such is the tightness of the competition, you wouldn't put your house on the result, or you might find yourself sleeping on a park bench.

Warriors

The home side is sitting pretty on top of the ladder, but the chasing pack ain't far behind, with just 8 premiership points (still less than the number of points the Old Boys have lost LOL) separating 1st and 7th. So a loss to the Demons, coupled with a Gumbies win over the Phoenix, would knock the Warriors off top spot.

Who’s hot

Ocha905: 26 possessions, 9 marks & a goal
Pantskyle: 17 hit outs & 26 possessions

Who’s not

TubbsFarquhar: 2 possessions & a goal
FootyGuy13: 6 possessions & 2 marks

Demons

The Dees had a rocky start to the season, but their recent form has been pretty good. As a result, they now find themselves knocking on the door of the top 8, and if they knock off the ladder leaders - coupled with a loss by the Roys or Bombers, they could sneak in there with only 6 minor rounds to go after this week.

Who’s hot

Scythe94: 20 possessions, 5 marks & a goal
Sausageroll: 22 possessions & 2 marks

Who’s not

PMBangers & cats2rise: both shared some donuts

Who wins

The sim is almost as difficult to read as a Wonders match thread, but I'll say that the Warriors will maintain their position at the head of the pack, and win by 7 points.

Good evening philreich, good evening Wazzas and good evening Hill People. Why this isn't the MoTR round is an absolute befuddlement.

 

[Ocha905]

I'm actually nervous for this week. I see your billowing thread numbers week in, week out, and am in awe. I don't know how you do it.

You're so hot you've evaporated and thus can't been seen. Easy mistake to make.

It’s not MOTR because it’s not a Wazza intra club match

Ah fair enough then. Sorry Deez, no MoTR for you.

I’ve got about 200-300 plums on the trees this year, should I make some? I feel I might need it next season.

That’s because philreich considers himself a big shot FF now okey has been relegated.

 

[Wosh]

Meh, our mum says we’re MOTR every week.

 

[philreich]

That's because I kicked 6 yesterday - a number that represents okey's recent monthly average .
