Event Festival of the Wonders

[Son of Skeletor]

Hi. The match thread you're looking for is over here

Official Match Thread - Season 35, Round 3 - Gold City Royals v Fighting Furies @ The Golden Throne

v Let's start with a little bit of humour: Royals One might argue that the Royals are coming off the bye, after they mercilessly despatched the hapless Rats in round 2. However they’re now sitting pretty at 2-0 to start the season, after also accounting for the Phoenix in round 1. If...

Alright, I'll just click this link and... hey, wait a minute!

Northy has played an entire 23 game season and had no clue what the league is or that he even played in it

That's just Northy's M.O. though. He buys tickets to Taylor Swift, then gets confused when security throws him our of her house.

We should consider ourselves luck that the correct weekly thread ever gets stickied.

Congratulations Wonders on your 5 cups.

Happy Thursday Wonders fans and festival goers

This morning I bring you a Wonders match close to my heart, I take you back to Season 11 Round 1, a wide eyed Froth was released onto the Qooty field for the very first time, and in a Foundation Cup match no less! The game would turn out to be an instant classic, and a famous Wonders win due to late game heroics from everyone's favourites BallaratBulldog and croweater 41.

Headless and cooney come join the festival fun and share your memories of this classic game

Thanks for going to the effort of changing that and then responding with a gif, mate.

What happened to you?

 

[croweater 41]

What happened to you?

Shit captains put me in the ruck and half forward flanks and back pockets and interchange and it really just ruined me.

I'm the best FF the Wonders have ever had.

So that is a tone of real awe Tarkyn_24 and okeydoke7 use when discussing you….

but is there really?

Through our long history - we are apparently* a Foundation Club, doncha know - we have produced a huge number of Qooty champions.

Delighted Marklar_33 made the team. Here he is the suave owner of the Wonders favoured nightclub.

People like Grand Uncle Horace, Cadsky and ClarkeM love to talk up the Wonders...But when was the last time they actually achieved anything of note? Certainly nothing in my time in Sweet. damicky's Mobbs Medal win was probably the pinnacle, and he didn't even get in the All-SFA that season.

On the field, we have had a couple of lean seasons after playing Finals in S32

Off the field, we have a fantastic list that is the envy of minnows like the Dragons

We have the perfect blend of Antiques, Veterans, League Legends & up & coming Stars of the Sweet FA

Don’t be jealous of us

 

[damicky]

LOL - that's loser talk!
"Oh we've never won anything, but the real gift of Sweet are the friends we gained along the way!"

We are focusing all of our attention on THIS Season

With ClarkeM & croweater 41 reinvigorated, we are destined for success

It also helps that we offloaded a guy to the Furies then Royals that was holding us back

The West Coast Wonders S34 B&F will be held this coming Monday starting @ 7.30ish pm Sweet Time

Even serial_thrilla is invited to attend
