Wonders seem to struggle when they cannot get the ball as they have one of the worst points for per disposal ratio, as it seems they love to chip the ball around a lot.

Gumbies are experts in kicking the ball around the back and hoping the other team doesn't intercept them. They also tackle more than any other team, but that is where their stellar stat lines end as they are only able to manage 3 wins this season. Their main problem is defending as they are the second worst team in the league in that stat and if they want to improve their position on the ladder they need to come up with a new game-plan.

I expect this game to be filled with very high disposals and a lot of kick-mark around the back. Basically a game of keep-it-off the opponent.

Here we are, back to the start.

Also if my opponent could just not get in my way whilst I continue on my way to winning a Mobbs medal that would be pretty cool too.

Hello Gumbies. Monday match threads are great aren't they!

 

[Barrybran]

Morning all. You won't have to worry about the Mobbs, crowy. StFly will be winning that one.

Time to get back on the winners list Wonders. Topless training will be taken to new heights this week as I've struck a deal with the Demons so we can train at the top of their coldest mountain. A little bit of frost bite never hurt anybody really.

Hello Wolves FFC.

Oh boy was that embarrassing. Westeros Direwolves or whatever it was meant to be. The fact that that went public is still the most cringe thing I've seen in this league (on par with about 20 other things though let's be real, still pretty bad that one).
