Official Match Thread SEASON 31 - ROUND 12: East Side Hawks vs Baghdad Bombers at The Eyrie

[Tigerturbulance]

East Side Hawks vs Baghdad Bombers at The Eyrie Preview

​

The biggest match on the SFA calendar outside of the grand final is nearly upon us, the ANZAC Day Round. ANZAC (Australian and New Zealand Army Corps) Day is the anniversary of the landing of troops from Australia and New Zealand on the Gallipoli Peninsula, Turkey, in World War I on April 25, 1915. This Anzac Day we’ll come together, in person and in spirit, to commemorate the men and women who have served our nation in all wars, conflicts, and peacekeeping operations.

Bombers lost one of the games they would have expected to win last Sunday, falling to the last place Furies by twenty one points.

Antonio BlueVein will be disappointed with the loss in a see-sawing clash which saw Jabba73 dominate in the ruck with 15 hit-outs and 3 qoals. They will look to capitalise on the clearance numbers against the Hawks who kick big scores from clearance numbers.

The Hawks had a tough start of the season and won’t be happy with their current second bottom placing. If they lose this match they could hit rock bottom. Unfortunately for the Hawks scoring opportunities will be limited with the Bombers having picked up their defensive pressure to a new level this season. Bombers Pugsley currently leads the SFA in tackles and the Hawks will have to find away to put this puppy down if they want a chance of winning.

However, Sundays game will be a real test for the Hawks players to show if they still have a desire to win. por_please_ya and SM have continued to turn up each week but Chipmunk and Agent93 will have to see more from the likes of Itsmyshow, Golumless and Shermy if the side has a chance of keeping off the bottom of the ladder.

Bombers is one of the toughest teams to play away from home, and I believe they could get the job done despite the Hawks desperation not to come last. Bombers to WIN.

I mean... Itsmyshow just came off a 5 goal 3 return.

Shermy though...

Every game against the Bombers comes too damn quickly for my liking.

That's what i was thinking, it wasn't long ago anyway. But it's always good to play the Hawks.

Oh it's my second favourite former team.

I didn't know you were a Bomber mate, so making us your second favourite team i assume you've only played at one other.

I said former team. East Side is the third team I've played for.

I must say, slaughtering unarmed children doesn't seem cool

He's my twin brother mate, and he has the most hair.

That's just the sort of thing a light mode square would say.
