Match Reports and Results Thursday 16th of May

Hi all, my sincere apologies for the lack of content on the blog - I'll be updating the match reports from previous weeks. Last week's is below, and the table is updated. Here is a life tip - if you take a new job and the boss leaves in the first week, consider investing in beer stocks.

Cobras beat Slammers 13-11, Blitz 1 beat Heroes 15-8, UQ Lovers beat Blitz 2 15-4, Dojo beat bugs 15-7.



Cobras - Troy

So recently I was discussing the possibility of relinquishing the match reports for the Cobras however when I discussed the options with DW a shocking and I mean shocking fact was uncovered. Well two facts, first he had intentions of discussing events within games that relate to frisbee in the match reports, is that even allowed? I thought there was rules against that but I may have invented those rules, it is hard to remember whether things are real or I made them up these days. The other and actually first of these facts is that he thinks that Speedy Cerviche is the best Samurai Pizza Cat, honestly who is this man? Everyone agrees that Polly Esther is the best, come on DW you're better than that. Interesting fact from the other team, Dan Rule proved that not all sayings are true, as not getting a stitch in time didn't cost him nine. (See how I mentioned the game there DW but it actually raises more questions than it answers). After playing Slamtown this week I had the pleasure of visiting their fair town (They're not a city they're a town!), and what I found other than my dignity which I must have left there in 2007, who would have thought that the Gold Coast was where I left it. It really was the last place I would have thought to look. I still don't understand why DW mentioned the Samurai Pizza Cats anyway all I wanted to know was the name of Soundwave's cassette that was like a Jaguar or something. In case it has been bugging everyone as much as it has me, no it isn't Laserbeak, thanks to all the people who offered that. It is Ravage, so many times Ravage killed me in that choose your own adventure book, if only I tried to read it successive time close enough that I could remember how not to die in that part I might have avoided the end so early in the book some of the time.

Cobras win 13-11

Heroes - Seb

Blitz got up over Heroes in a pretty convincing fashion, 15 to 8 last night. They valued their possession of the disc and when we gave it to them cheaply they converted with ease. Their zone is also one of the strongest in the league. Not a lot of positives for the Heroes, only consolation is that we will have a chance to bounce back next week.

Blitz 1 - Timocles

This week's game saw Blitz 1 roll out another savage line. Injuries, work and being Canadian had taken their toll on player's bodies and subsequently seen both teams short on numbers. Heroes seemed in a similar situation; a few more experienced players were missing from the gents in green. It wasn't the night for not showing up though with Blitz taking the win 15-8.

With Heroes taking the first point, it looked like we were in for a fight. A few more points saw even 2's. Blitz back on defence, Heroes started to crack under some heavy defensive pressure. Half was taken by Blitz at 8-4. The second half was pretty relaxed from our perspective. No point in getting too worked up, right? especially if you're playing savage and running as the puppy all night. Blitz cruised to the win, and even got a bit of heckling in with Blitz 2 and UQ playing on the adjacent field. The Mulletted Muppet strikes again!

Highlights of the game include a sweet Myall toe-drag to score, Sebastian Brown throwing it straight to the sideline on a swing pass with no one on the field in the immediate vicinity, and an untouchable Myles-Lochie hammer connection that debuted early and didn't stop.

Dojo - ads

Man, I love playing Bugs. For Dojo, its like looking in a red mirror - dinosaurs with awesome throws and younger players (well, young for Dojo is <35) putting in the hard yards. The only difference - Dojo has the height, and without Mike the bugs were looking a little on the short side. Despite this, Dojo took a lot of points from working hard up the middle. The first 20 minutes were hard from both teams, and a lot of zone. Buzz as usual was nailing half field bombs to Jangles, but the Dojo took half around 8-5 and then took the rest of the game in a flurry of points - enough time to watch the Cobras and Slamtown finish. 

Oh, and Sensei joined us after a two week hiatus.
