Courtesy of Mobbs - a brief history of the Roys, how we came to be and significant moments and individuals.

The Roys were formed from a social qootyball team known as the Rabbledom Of Imbibers or the R.O.I. - an anti-temperance society centred around the inner western suburbs of Sweet Municipality. In the lead-up to the formation of the new Sweet FA premier competition in town, a name change saw the Roys FFC formed, under the tutelage of veteran Gorilla Roylion . After a fair start to proceedings in Season 03, we tasted success in Season 04 with our first premiership.

Following this initial success, a long drought ensued. Like our namesake, we were even lost from the league for a couple of seasons (S09 and S10) before returning in a blaze of mediocrity in Season 11. While we couldn't put points on the board, the Roys did make waves through a majestically strong activity presence around the community. Since this return, the mighty Gorilla has been synonymous with top-shelf banter and prize-winning content.

A year ago (2 years in local time) in Season 25 the premiership cup finally came home to the Brunswick Junction Oval, under the supervision of the lovable and long-suffering enduring captain fitzroybowiedog ! This pushed us into the Top 4, the only teams with multiple flags, and closed out the era of this being noteworthy as only terrible teams have since entered this realm thereafter.

Our last two seasons have been ... well as a promotional piece it may be better if we don't speak of the last two seasons. Yet despite the low results, the Roys have continued to be a leading performer in activity, including a #1 ranking in the Activity Assessment in S27 as conducted by the league's current Administrator.

This season, the league's 28th, will be our season ... just as almost all the previous ones were going to be but ended up not being. We have a fresh list (lies), an optimistic outlook (more lies) and are an unbelievably good-looking bunch of players (truth, actually). Who could resist us? Maybe some magnets and stuff. BUT APART FROM THAT?

Over the seasons many big names have come through the Roys team. The game's founder Mobbs was an inaugural player, as was one of the greatest celebrities of the competition: Broken . The Sweet FA's most adored cranky moderator Fred was synonymous with the Roys, until it was time for him to exit both worlds, both fantasy and real. Early leader Yippyio kicked over 100 goals one season, and the irrepressible Reardo was an early EKA medal winner, followed soon after by pantskyle who has gone on to have a major impact around various clubs, and then by Willo_ who sadly has retired until we can wear him down. fitzroybowiedog continues to flounder under a barrage of underwear whenever he appears on stage. Freakie and Mooch are league level award winners, as was Blondie162 in the very early days. Itsmyshow who has a broad presence around the competition to this day, played a strong hand in the Gorillas' resurgence in Season 11.

Hello all and welcome to Season 28 of the Sweet FA.

It’s an honour for me to be leading the club for the first time, with special thanks to fitzroybowiedog for his many years of leadership and guidance, as well as to the Leadership Group for their patience and assistance, especially Mobbs .

I’m hoping that we can get a little bit better luck with the simulation this year, last year we led in the last quarter in well over half our matches, but didn't come away with too many wins. Hopefully our new recruits, headlined by George , Beandip and GCB85 will spearhead a charge up the table this year.

A couple of important points here for everyone:

• This place is meant to be as much fun as possible, so let’s keep up our posting style from last year. Engage with and banter with the opposition – but keep it fun and friendly. Let’s tag people from the clubs we are playing, draw them in and make them a part of the game – as that leads to better match threads for everyone. But we’ll also defend and look after our own and our own turf – so don’t be afraid to treat flogs the way they deserve
• If there is an idea or something that you think might make this place better, feel free to reach out to the Leadership Group and suggest it. We’re here to look after your interests and to keep this community, and our part it in, alive and happy.

In terms of Season 27 – let’s show it the door and embark on something bigger and better.

TDC

PS. Now, some critical guidance in how to deal with the Sim….



And what do we do if it treats us poorly ?

Guys and girls we'd like to see all returning players confirm intent to "go around again" through responding on this thread. Otherwise - and I cannot be more clear on this - you will be served flat chudshakes in the Community Rooms.

We also need guernsey number selections from Beandip and GCB85 . I think George already selected his, iirc. I'll go back and check.

Hey guys, thanks for the welcome. Will be a little more active in the coming weeks but flat out at work with applications for student disability funding due in the next few weeks. Things are getting pretty hectic at the moment.

In terms of a number. Would love 14 if it is available.
