Sin City Swamprats 18.6 (114) defeat Las Vegas Bears 15.6 (96) at the Underground Stadium

The Sin Citizens were still at home in round 6 looking to bounce back from a loss last time up, as were the Las Vegans though the hosts had banked more wins to this stage. And that form line was looking to continue as the hosts raced out to a 19 point lead at the first change. The visitors were having none of it however, retaking the lead at the half and, while things got tight heading into the last quarter, the Swamprats made the most of the home conditions to finish up three goals to the good.

Speaking of good, GotTheGoodes (29 disposals/9 marks/1 goal) had a big one for the hosts as did sataris (29 disposals/6 tackles/4 frees for), TheGoatBaron (7 goals), tigs2010 (24 disposals/3 marks/4 tackles/3 goals), Rodney Dangerfield (18 disposals/7 marks) & Ant Bear (15 disposals/5 tackles).

Meanwhile for the visitors it was Cap (19 disposals/5 tackles/6 frees for), RonnieRaven (27 disposals/7 marks), SSSSSS (25 disposals/10 marks), Matera92 (21 disposals/10 hitouts/3 tackles/2 goals), Millky95 (18 disposals/2 goals) & RookiePick (4 goals) that shone the brightest.

Dragons FFC 12.10 (82) defeated by Gumbies FFC 15.6 (96) at Ljp86’s Lair

Match of the round featured the top two teams, and the Dragons & Gumbies delivered a seesawing stouch to claim bragging rights if not top spot. And it was the hosts that had the better of early proceedings by kicking four of the five first quarter goals before the ladder leaders by kicking seven goals to three in the second to take a slim lead into the second half. The Dragons then wrenched that lead back by the last change by six points however that effort took the wind out of them, as the Gumbies kicking the next four goals with only a late consolation to freo84 keeping both the final margin to 14 points and the plasticine people’s perfect record intact.

The Gumbies were well served by Mop (23 disposals/3 marks), bone2468 (12 disposals/5 tackles/4 frees for/3 goals), beez (21 disposals/4 marks), Dory_77 (4 goals), Spooky17 (18 disposals/3 marks/1 goal), GWS Goose (14 disposals/5 tackles/8 frees for) & captain Falconista (13 disposals/3 marks/3 tackles/2 goals).

On the other hand the ones that stood up for the Dragons were Blaze Storm (21 disposals/8 marks), Hatchy1992 (23 disposals/7 marks), Bradesmaen (14 disposals/5 tackles/4 frees for/1 goal), freo84 (3 goals) & Strigoi (13 disposals/15 hitouts/1 goal).

Fighting Furies 9.11 (65) defeated by Gold City Royals 19.11 (125) at rfctigerarmy’s hippodrome

On the other end of the ladder sat the Furies and the Royals who had two wins between them for the season, both belonging to the hosts. It was perhaps the best chance for the Gold Citizens to notch up their first win since the previous round, and you’d imagine they couldn’t waste another chance, could they?

Could they?

Well as it turned out, they didn’t! A five goal to one opening term gave the visitors a lead that remained steady until the final quarter where they went up the gears to record a 60 point thumping of the Furies.

Reigning Mobbs Medallist Crimson Azure was a tackling machine, having 11 to go with 23 disposals and 2 goals. Others to do well were grumbleguts (22 disposals/11 marks/1 goal), Ulahoopski (20 disposals/5 tackles/1 goal), Cadsky (20 disposals/6 tackles/4 frees for/1 goal), Smartys Power (20 disposals/7 hitouts/3 tackles/2 goals) & CakeEater (3 goals).

@#TRUMAN#1 won the ruck battle with 12 hitouts to go with 28 disposals/4 tackles & a goal, while others to do alright were rfctigerarmy (20 disposals/4 tackles/5 frees for/1 goal), Pickitt (20 disposals/4 marks/3 tackles/1 goal), Orange crush (28 disposals/4 marks/1 goal), Chronz (19 disposals/6 marks) & crazywildhorse (21 disposals/4 marks).

Roys FFC 17.8 (110) defeat Wonders FFC 16.8 (104) at Brunswick Junction Oval

The Wonders headed to the BJO refreshed after the bye and confident after a start which saw them in the top four. Perhaps they were too refreshed and/or confident as they didn’t worry about following the traditional calibration of correct team sheet submission. The Roys on the other hand were sitting percentage outside the eight and like to also do things in their own time but when they get around to it they do things right. And that’s how the game panned out, trailing by a goal at the first change then by 1.5 goals at the second before coming to life and taking a goal lead into the last quarter, which they maintained. Maybe that’s how their season will also pan out???

For the Gorillas it was DERRINALPHIL (30 disposals/13 hitouts/7 tackles/2 goals) that was best on ably supported by Mooch (6 goals), royboy2 (28 disposals/6 tackles/4 frees for), HinkleysHeroes (20 disposals/5 marks/5 tackles/1 goal), Phar Ace (25 disposals/2 goals), Cats_R_Cool_4_Ever (18 disposals/5 tackles/4 frees for/1 goal) & JackNah_8 (16 disposals/4 marks/4 tackles/1 goal).

BFew saw Mooch’s six goals and raised it another two to finish with eight, receiving good service from Coopers (27 disposals/7 tackles), Pamcake1 (21 disposals/9 tackles), dogs105 (20 disposals/16 hitouts), okeydoke7 (17 disposals/5 marks/4 tackles), BallaratBulldog (17 disposals/8 marks) & SSwans2011 (18 disposals/6 marks).

East Side Hawks 14.3 (87) defeat Baghdad Bombers 12.9 (81) at the Eyrie

The Hawks and Bombers had opposing win/loss records coming into this match, with the hosts at 4-1 and the visitors at 1-4. The match itself was closer than the form line suggested though, as a super accurate East Side outfit eventually prevailing by six points despite the Babylonians have four more shots on goal.

boncer34 turned back the clock to kick seven goals for the Hawks while sausageroll (17 disposals/7 tackles/5 frees for/2 goals), TY24 (16 disposals/5 tackles/7 hitouts/1 goal), Tarkyn_24 (18 disposals/5 tackles/4 frees for), Loonerty (25 disposals/5 marks/1 goal), SM (17 disposals/5 marks/3 tackles/2 goals), Callums_Guns (19 disposals/9 marks) & Itsmyshow (18 disposals/7 marks/3 tackles).

As for the Bombers the best performing were tomjoad (6 goals), WAbulldog (21 disposals/6 tackles/2 goals), Bovo (22 disposals/8 tackles/4 frees for), norway blue (21 disposals/5 marks/3 tackles/1 goal), BoozedUP (25 disposals/4 marks/1 goal), Kilroy (17 disposals/4 tackles) & TubbsFarquhar (14 disposals/9 marks).

Mount Buller Demons 17.12 (114) defeat Ophidian Old Boys 14.8 (92) at the Snow Dome

The Demons hosted the Old Boys in the final game of the round with both teams looking to consolidate their positions in the top eight. And after an even first quarter the Ophidians were two goals up at the half. A lead which vanished in the third as the hosts kicked five goals to one while outscoring the visitors in the last by another goal to finish 22 points in the black.

DemonJim had leather poisoning after having 35 touches and 7 marks while the engine room of Gralin (26 disposals/9 tackles/1 goal), Scythe (24 disposals/13 hitouts/3 goals), moginie (29 disposals/4 marks/3 tackles/1 goal), Jatz (23 disposals/4 tackles/5 frees for/1 goal), tomcruise (22 disposals/4 marks/3 goals) & Bluelegs (19 disposals/6 marks/1 goal) provided the grunt.

Braklet (22 disposals/8 tackles/1 goal) & thewizardmelon (20 disposals/17 hitouts/4 tackles/1 goal) were the best for the Old Boys, with support from former winner philreich (19 disposals/6 marks), Pugsley (14 disposals/8 marks) & tigerland_1720 (15 disposals/6 marks/1 goal) while gab213 (4 goals) & @Juddgement Day (3 goals) did the bulk of the scoring.

The cheque's in the mail. Love ya pal.
But has he posted enough? 🤔
Read above. I just posted a cheque to Phenom. And last week I posted one to Gralin. Isn't that enough?

Match of the Round – Demons vs Hawks

The Snow Dome turned into a blizzard of brilliance as the Demons buried the Hawks in a flurry of goals and good times.

Mount Buller’s midfield came in like a wrecking ball, while the Hawks never hit so hard in love.

DERO – The Blizzard Bringer

Cold air, hot hands, bad breath. Two goals, both beautiful. Even the Hawks’ defenders applauded (quietly, under their breath).

jmoo wan – The Smooth Operator

Ten silky disposals, zero panic, and a telepathic link with every teammate - this is why they call him Sade around the clubroom. He played the sort of goals that make small children believe in Santa again.


Proper Gander 's Guide of How-Not-To-Play Qooty (A weekly masterclass in chaos)

They say every great team needs balance, stars who shine, grinders who grind, and one player who provides comic relief. For the Demons, that honour falls proudly to @Proper Gander, who this week delivered another unforgettable performance in the fine art of “almost.”

  • The Kick That Defied Logic: Early in the first, Proper Gander attempted a switch-kick that somehow travelled backwards and sideways. Physicists are still investigating.
  • The Tackle That Tackled No One: Midway through the second, she lined up a crunching hit… on a patch of air. The air remains unharmed but deeply traumatised.
  • The Mark That Wasn’t: At one point, she leapt beautifully, timed it perfectly, and then… forgot to bring her hands. Crowd gave it a 9.5 for style, 0 for completion.
For the Hawks

Tarkyn_24 had 28 touches and somehow managed to make 29 mistakes. Spent most of the fourth quarter yelling at clouds, possibly for better structure and accountability.

Result: A 35-point win that never felt in doubt, except on the rare occasion Proper Gander had the ball in hand.

The Snow Dome remains a graveyard for visiting clubs and a paradise for stat-padders.

Around the Grounds in Brief (cos who really gives a shit)

Gold City Royals vs Las Vegas Bears


The Royals tried to defend The Golden Throne but mostly looked like they were shitting in it.

Footypie32 lead the competition in “almost marks.” Dropped more ball-shaped objects than a toddler with shiityfingers After the game, reportedly told media he was “building tension.”

@MannumPower kicked a goal, celebrated like he’d won a premiership… then immediately gave away a free kick for over-celebration. The umpire was so confused he awarded a 50 just on principle.

Bears ran riot 22.2 (134) to 19.11 (125).

Baghdad Bombers vs Gumbies FFC

At Abdu Prison, the Bombers blew up the scoreboard and the Gumbies’ self-esteem, 17.5 (107) to 11.8 (74).
The Gumbies’ forward line was last seen applying for witness protection. Rumour has it their coach replaced the whiteboard with a mirror for “reflection time.”

KohPhi tried to inspire the troops with a halftime speech, but forgot the words halfway through and just started quoting Gladiator 2, not even the good one

Barrybran played the game like he plays werewolf. Didn’t contribute until it was all but over and no one realised he was playing until he was modkilled.

West Coast Wonders vs Coney Island Warriors

The Warriors waltzed in, stole the Wonders’ snacks, and left with a 39-point win: 16.9 (105) to 9.12 (66).

TheInjuryFactory tried to lay a shepherd, missed entirely, and took out his own teammate. Still recorded an assist, for the opposition.

ClarkeM kicked the first goal, then disappeared so completely that local authorities briefly filed a missing person report. No one missed him at all

Wonders looked surprised that four quarters are still part of the rules.
Coney Island didn’t even break a sweat—probably because they were too busy taking selfies.

Roys FFC vs Sin City Swamprats

Away from home, the 'Prats squeaked by 11.10 (76) to 9.8 (62).
It was less a game, more a slow-motion wrestle in mud.

spookism Spent most of the match asking the umpire if “we’re still playing advantage.” Accidentally tackled a teammate during the third quarter, then claimed “I did ask for consent”

Mobbs ,the wily veteran turned back the clock… unfortunately to 2006. Kicked one out on the full, then muttered “bloody modern qootballs.”

The Roys claim they were “building character.” The ‘Prats claimed a two-goal lead and called it a day.

Ophidian Old Boys vs Fighting Furries

A thriller! The Old Boys won by a single point 10.14 (74) to 11.7 (73).

The Filth Wizard

Usually the calm conductor, but this week he conducted absolutely nothing. Tried to switch the play, accidentally booted it into his own teammate’s back. Tactical? Maybe. Effective? Absolutely not.

Tigerturbulance played like a man allergic to good decisions. Fumbled, tripped, argued with an advertising sign, and somehow still nearly won the game. Truly the Picasso of chaos.

The Furries blamed the umpires, the weather, and the curvature of the Earth.
Meanwhile, the Old Boys celebrated like they’d just invented qootball.

The Frankson Rover award is presented by the league Administrator to the poster or posters that have gone above and beyond for the league during the season.

There were some worthy choices this season but there were to me two names that provided support to the league and also helped drive engagement and at the end of the day I've taken the cowards way out by not having to pick my favorite.

Falconista has done a mountain of work this season, Captain of one of the best run clubs, Keeper of the sacred texts (The Ladder Thread) committee member, match poster and media creator. It was another stellar season for Falc who goes back to back and wins his 4th Frankston Rover Award

Tonga Bob has collated posting stats for the second season, has again run a tight ship at the Wazzas and apart from providing his usual high level of match posting and media output you may notice his name across 5 rounds in this thread as he helped a poor Admin out and picked up some extra Rounds that needed reallocating, this will be Bob's first Frankston Rover

Congratulations to both of you
Falconista and Tonga Bob 😎

What does a Mooch need to do to get a vote? I kicked like a million goals this season.

@Mobbs ,the wily veteran turned back the clock… unfortunately to 2006. Kicked one out on the full, then muttered “bloody modern qootballs.”
Mobbs I remember this game and that write up is right on the money 🤣

The EKA Medal is awarded to the best first year poster in the league. It was named after eagleskickass and was first awarded in season 9 to croweater 41

This year were 6 nominees, every single nominee received votes from more than one club and two tied for third

Saint Kidding (Bombers) and ubiquitous226 (Warriors)

The second most popular choice was Matthew Jelley (Gumbies) who was narrowly beaten by this season's EKA Medalist, congratulations to tomcruise (Demons)

YAY!

Huge result, tomcruise.
 
The Frankson Rover award is presented by the league Administrator to the poster or posters that have gone above and beyond for the league during the season.

There were some worthy choices this season but there were to me two names that provided support to the league and also helped drive engagement and at the end of the day I've taken the cowards way out by not having to pick my favorite.

Falconista has done a mountain of work this season, Captain of one of the best run clubs, Keeper of the sacred texts (The Ladder Thread) committee member, match poster and media creator. It was another stellar season for Falc who goes back to back and wins his 4th Frankston Rover Award

Tonga Bob has collated posting stats for the second season, has again run a tight ship at the Wazzas and apart from providing his usual high level of match posting and media output you may notice his name across 5 rounds in this thread as he helped a poor Admin out and picked up some extra Rounds that needed reallocating, this will be Bob's first Frankston Rover

Congratulations to both of you
An absolute honour, thank you!

Hey Falconista look at us! Masters spearmint milk all round!

We tried something a little different this year with the SFACA Award. Whether this sticks or not is yet to be seen but each club nominated a player based on statistical output and from there each club votes 3-2-1 for the players they thought most deserving excluding their own nomination (same process as the EKA)

We again had a tie for 3rd with DemurePrincess (Bombers) and DERRINALPHIL (Roys) getting the exact same spread of votes

In second slightly ahead was dogs105 (Wonders)

But the runaway winner was everyone's favourite bookie rodent Chipmunk (Bears)

Congratulations Chipmunk on an outstanding season at CHB for the Bears
