[Ulahoopski]

Seeing you up and about with A) 100+ posts and B) smacking down people in music discussion took me back to the song contest threads, was great reading you this week

Person, not people. Any metal head who claims Slayer are vanilla deserves everything I can throw at them. What a twat.

 

[Ulahoopski]

weltschmerz deserves a mention for a 16 disposal, 5 marks, 1 tackle, 1 goal debut. Congrats! And extra credit for staying out of the caustic juvenile humourless shitpot that is a Bombers thread. It only gets better from there I can assure you.

Cheers! As a certified shorty I think I'm quite at home in the forward line.

 

[Ligma]

I am so s**t

 

[philreich]

we've lost our last 12 games simmed by Phil (rough estimate)

Except I've simmed 12 games less than that .

 

[CakeEater]

5 goals hey?

That's a damn impressive debut at Full Forward don't you think? Doubt anyone else could have scored that in a loss.

I scored 9 goals in a loss once

 

[spookism]

I felt exactly the same about my 7 tackles but then I remembered I scored 9 goals once in a loss. This sim is quite a guy.

I scored 9 goals in a loss once

Cool stories, guys.

You'll notice I said 5 goals. Not 4, not 6 and certainly not 9.

Either way, it's certainly more than a certain ex-full forward would have gotten, especially on debut.

you have a lot of gall posting here

 

[krakouers]

On that note, wow what a start to the season, I love seeing so many Royals around because I think we have one of the strongest posting units in the league, and a big thanks to krakouers for his work in engaging the side

*note name position here means nothing, I just went off the top off my head

ROund1 has come and gone and yet again we've lost, but it's alright Royals, as I said to Filth 'the best premiership teams have to have some sort of struggle' and this is ours. The match thread was the Bombers as their chaotic selves and once again I think we went with the flow and had a pretty good week. That being said the Warriors in Round 2 may be more our pace, so for our newer players look forward to it.

We matched the Bombers for scoring for most of the game, with the second quarter ultimately being our downfall as the Bombers took advantage of our lapse, and whoever was in charge of the interchange bench took the piss out of us with some of those substitutions. Winning the 1st and 4th quarters was a still a highlight to take away from the game, started well and then kept fighting despite the game essentially being done

The final note of this Round is to congratulate SarahSmiles, everyones favourite 14-year-old, on their 150th game in the league. Truly an outstanding contributor in that time and someone I've gotten to know as a Chelsea addict and an enjoyer of fantastic music. Despite leaving the Rats at the end of last season, some words from their former teammates sum up the impact they've had;

I love winning Royals, and I assume you do too!

What a game, I must admit I s**t myself a bit when they had a couple in a row in the 4th but we held on well and obliterated the dogs! The Warriors were a fun week, they're a good quality posting unit and it's never boring when the likes of Wigs, Pants and TiF are about, overall we didn't post as much as we did against the Bombers but I reckon we all enjoyed it a bit more!

It was all Royals, all game. That's it, that's how we need to play to win our elusive second flag, and I reckon we've got it in us to hold on to a decent streak, especially against the Dragon nerds

What a finish that was, if there's ever a time I've felt genuine panic from this place, well that's the closeted I've gotten. A big shout out to The Filth Wizard for a game saving defensive effort in the very late stages of the game. To be honest, it wasn't crash hot for us but a fight back in the second half is always enjoyable, but again, I'd love to just dominate from the start

And finally, * you serial_thrilla and Pie 4 Life
