Bugs - Trev
It was a testing night for the Bugs. We were savage on the line with our most senior players absent. The Bugs showed their intent early though with a quick two points to start the game. Blitz responded with some clinical offence which made short work of our zone. The Bugs gave Blitz too many opportunities though, which the capitalised on to take half 8 - 3. Blitz came out firing again in the second half with two quick ones tot take it out to 10 - 3 before the Buggers mounted a comeback not dissimilar to last season's final vs Slammers. Some hard running on D and clinical O, including 4 big goals from new Canadian, Zev got the Bugs back in it but by this stage it was too late and Blitz closed it out at 15 - 10. Big wraps to Blitz who continue to show that they are not the inexperienced team of old and will cause some upsets this season. Well done to the Buggers too. We were the last ones out on the field on Thursday and showed that it ain't over till the fat crusteacean sings. Now for the Cobras
Blitz 2 - Cunliffe
It was the the league leaders versus the league's newest
recruits. David and Goliath analogies come to mind. However, to my great
disappointment, in this battle David didn't win.
That said, a number of Blitz's proverbial rocks hit their
mark during the game, notching up 8 goals to Cobras' 15, but the class actof
the Cobras rarely had difficulty moving the disc around the field and gave the
Blitz youngsters a candid lesson in executing the simple principles of
ultimate.
If they can keep this up they might finally be able to
drop the "league underachievers" tag and finally win the BPL crown
that many have been speculating they are ripe for...
: ))
Good game. I look forward to the next one.
Slamtown - Stef
Match report - Slamtown had a few call ups, and
a few no shows........ speaking of which, our offence was a no show.
Dojo smashed us, it was hard to watch. Slamtown
will be licking wounds this week looking to find redemption down the road.
Heroes - Seb
Heroes made a good
start to this week's match against UQ Lovers taking an early lead and getting
to half with an 8-4 advantage. We then continued our run after half to 12-4
before UQ regathered their composure and traded until the end of the game.
Final score was 15 - 8 which gives the Heroes our first win of the season. With
over half of the UQ team being new to BPL they are still finding their feet and
will no doubt improve every week. BW, Gary, and Bayney do a great job leading
the squad
Dojo - Sensei
Epicness.
That’s the one and only word that truly sums up the round 6
clash between Dojo and Slamtown. And it’s not even a real word!
But seriously, how else do you sum up a game that included:
an epic Callahan opener (courtesy of Dojo’s
Joel “The Giant” Young)
an epic midfield footblock (yeah me)
an epic layout score (Dan Walls sure has still got it)
an epic layout nearly-score (Abraham nearly had it)
an epic hammer score on Stall 9 (Dan Walls again, this time
after looking off about 5 dump options and coming very close to an epic fail)
an epic beard on that big Slamtown dude
an epic use of the word “epic” in the match report
Cobras - Troy
ReplyDeleteThere have been rumblings that the Cobras have become arrogant and complacent. This couldn't be further from the truth there has been constant development plans that have been taking place. The recruitment has been a constant effort, helped in large parts by the fact that when we cured Finn of his curse a piece of information that I left out was Pigsy beat up Guarin and said that will help you in the future. We at the time laughed and thought it was a joke, the Dan's still didn't know who Pigsy was but in the end we just moved on. However during our recruitment attempts we found that there was a result, he can now tell if you're telling the truth. This was handy as we didn't want people who wouldn't be honest ruining what is the envy of the sports world. I am of course talking about the Cobars culture. Early in the piece we interviewed Linus who it turns out speaks for the rookies, that was nice. We then talked to Dan rule, mostly we wanted a third Dan, but he looked at our uniform and said that his favourite colour was green, it's purple, you've got to be better than that to fool us. When we talked to Michael we asked if he had anything unusual about him we should be aware of? He said 'no' and he's Tasmanian so we all know he has a scar on one of his shoulders. However recently we have had some good results from our interviews and Guarin has informed us that all answers have been truthful. I will keep everyone up to date as more information comes to hand. Other areas of the organisation where people may have noticed changes is the coach that the Cobras have brought in. Most of the coaching comes in the form of heckling however it has been been helpful I think in that we are now too scared to make mistakes, even Wetnose who once killed a man, rather than have actually developed at all.
Cobras won 15-8
What about Pete's gloves? Did he wear them? Is he the Ultimate trendsetting equivalent of the Fonz? Is Dojo upset by this, or will they all were gloves for a round in solidarity for their receiver?
