Roys FFC vs Gumbies FFC at Brunswick Junction Oval

Roys FFC 11th: 6-9, 98.96% vs GumbiesFFC 7th: 7-7-1, 106.86%

The Roys, after sitting 3rd on the ladder, have lost 4 of their last 5 games, and are now reliant on team sheet penalties to have any finals chance, but they can play spoiler and end the Gumbies season with a win here. However, the Gumbies are in sparkling form, having booted 25.16 last week to thrash the Demons. With their strong percentage, if either the Bombers lose to the Furies OR the Warriors lose to the Hawks, OR they win this game , the Gumbies will play in the major round.

Now for the massive let down to resume normal programming.

 

[Fryer Tuck]

This is an ex-season, I take it?

Onwards to next season then, for the Roys.

There was a young virgin named Alice, who thought of her campaigner as a chalice. One night, sleeping nude, she awoke feeling lewd, and found in her chalice a phallus.

Well Roy's our season has gone down the toilet quicker than the career of an Aussie politician who holds a dual citizenship .
Sadly we won't even reach the lofty mediocre heights of last season.
I think our total lack of bombarding match threads with the annoying catch phrase " ROYVOLUTION" like we did last season has been part of our downfall.
Just cos we can't win doesn't mean we can't still enjoy being annoying and repetitive.
So The ROYVOLUTION Begins now

Duel Citizenship? Does that mean pistols at dawn?

 

[Quivorir]

How many Royvolutions does it take before you just give up and fold?

End of the season. Finals a distant hope after another collapse.
It's deja vu.
Rinse and repeat.
