Official Match Thread Season 25 Round 7: Las Vegas Bears vs Gold City Royals at The Stadium in the Sky

[PhenomenalV1]

After going 1-4 in the first 5 weeks, the Bears looked to get their season back on track but fell short last week against the Furies. Can they pull themselves back into their premiership form from season 22? Or will they be stuck as the Bad News Bears again?

The Royals had a glimpse of a bright future after round one, but have fallen into bottom 4 purgatory. Coming off the back of a draw, will the Royals be able to salvage their season, or will they be relegated to just being peasants?

Two teams with a match they both need to win...it's going to get ugly...

PLAYERS TO WATCH

Bears

gym4life

Back from inactivity, gym4life has made it his mission to restore the former glory of the SFA. Will he achieve his goal among the modern day spam-posters?

AngryRanga

While he might not be as prominent as his co-captain, AngryRanga brings a level of depth to the Bears leadership. Is he the key to turning things around?



Royals

Thatsapaddlin

Being promoted to co-captain? Thatsapaddlin. Playing solidly on field? Thatsapaddlin. Making his custom paddle MTG card avatar red instead of an artifact like it should be? Oh you better believe Thatsapaddlin.

burningdwarf

The ex-Bombers premiership player is enjoying his time at Gold City. Will he rake in his second premiership in three seasons?




Phenom's Tip

Royals in gold class.

Sounds like PhenomenalV1 wants the paddle

Strong posting by the bears so far.

Thatsapaddlin being a co-captain of a club exemplifies my point about how far the league has fallen.

The Bears are my 3rd favourite team. Let's keep it that way, shall we.

Mobbs and a spoon sounds like a great combo.

I'd assume as the captain you'd be active enough to see it, glad i was correct. When you have a gift, why not share it with the bigfooty community?

And yet you’re still a no one...

When i was properly active there was no a single active poster in the league that did not know my name, I was the SFA's most controversial figure, I was Harolad before Harolad was Harolad. Who the * are you?

 

[JoshWoodenSpoon]

Who?

 

[Blacky]

Who the **** are you?

Someone with a claim to fame outside of comparing themselves to Harolad.

You can't.

Guess which campaigner is going to suffer a dramatic drop in productivity?
