Official Match Thread Season 27, Round 6: Fighting Furies vs Gold City Royals @ rfctigerarmy's Hippodrome

[PhenomenalV1]

Bottom four and all out of patience. Who snaps first?

The TJASTA era has gotten off on the wrong foot. Sitting dead last after the first month of qooty, the Furies have struggled to maintain any semblance of momentum. Perhaps Flanders was the better choice of captain...

They Royals are doing...OK. With a couple of wins under their belts, and some close losses to boot, the Royals seem headed out of the realms of irrelevancy sooner rather than later. Can they keep up the pace?



LAST TIME THEY MET

Season 26, Round 15

Gold City Royals lost to Fighting Furies @ The Golden Throne
12.15 (87) - 19.2 (116)



PLAYERS TO WATCH


FURIES


Tigerturbulance

After being benched from the ruck in the middle of his last game, TT will be back on the hunt for hitouts. How many of those will be against the ball?


Hate

The former admin also found a spot on the bench at a crucial point in the match. Will he be able to reassert his influence this week?



ROYALS


The Filth Wizard

Another bechee from last week, the Royals captain has had a somewhat above average run at full-forward so far this season. Can he make a leap to catch the Fred chase leaders?


ShaunDuggan

With a regular spot at centre half-back, Duggs is revelling in the Season 23 Swamprats reunion going on in the team. Will he use this camaraderie to boost his on field performance?



Phenom's Tip

Lol, like the Royals would even come close to losing this one.



Captains, please have your team sheets posted in the team sheet thread by 11:59pm AEDT on Thursday.​
