Official Match Thread Season 27, Round 8 - Mount Buller Demons vs Dragons FFC at Snow Dome (MOTR)

[Barrybran]

Not many people would have tipped the Dragons to feature in a 1 v 2 clash at the beginning of the season but here they are, having won four of their last five games. They travel to the Snow Dome to take on the Demons, who have also won four of their past five. Both teams come into this match on the back of close wins - the Demons edged out the Bombers by seven points while the Dragons pipped the Warriors by two points despite leading by five goals at half time. The Demons will be looking to quell the Dragons offensive routes with both PhenomenalV1 and Pie 4 Life kicking bags in the past couple of weeks while the Demons will be looking to capitalise on their ruck advantage.

Sorry to intrude ..... Yakker you left your book behind in last weeks thread ...thought I'd just drop it in & then quietly leave

I get the feeling that the result of this match will depend entirely on which team wins.

Hello everyone.

The best I can come up with this morning is that I hope this week doesn’t ‘Drag-on’.

I’m very sorry.

Yes, any match against us in considered a big match.

How you enjoying captaincy?

Good to know. All we need to do is remove the big match from the Snow Dome gates and the Dragons are screwed.
