Match Results/Reviews Round 13

Game results and the match reviews. Sensei has responded to rumours of a leadership shuffle by posting two match reviews in a row! Whatever the others say Steve, I'm with you :). 

Video link below. Click. Watch. Ha. 

Blitz beat Bugs (15-6), Cobras beat Blitz 2 (15-5), Heroes beat UQ Lovers (15-6), and Dojo beat Slamtown (13-10). 


Slamtown - Stef
A great game by both in a jostle for position going into semi's SFC threw the sink at the Dojo only to have returned.  With 3 lead changes in the game it was certainly hotly contested, and speaking of contesting, there were a fair few fouls called as well.  All handled in good spirit, and both team walked away amicably.  Pete Allen was an absolute dominant force for the Dojo, and SFC didn't have answers to slow him down.  It's all set in stone now that SFC will play the table topping Cobras in the Semis while up and comers Blitz will have a crack at the Dojo.... they also finish the season against each other.  Slamtown on the other hand prepare to play against the Lovers, and hope that we can walk away with a bit of Love.


Dojo - Sensei
Poor old Eddie McGuire. He makes one stupid comment (admittedly after many other ill-advised comments over the years) and then immediately apologizes for being stupid but ohhhhhhh no Eddie - we’re going to hear about that as our #1 TV news item all week long. Like we don’t see enough of him as it is.

Put that into context with the Slamtown situation right now. I mean, all night long, week in, week out, they call one of their own teammates “Beast” and how much outrage does that create? ZERO! Not a peep from Julia Gillard, not a word on Today Tonight, nothing at all in the sports pages of the Courier-Mail, not even a disgruntled letter to the editor in the Southside News.

Well, I for one am standing up against this kind of shameful conduct. I mean, just because a guy has a seriously epic beard and is a bit taller than most is no reason to deny him the basic status of being human. Maybe it’s just the fact that Slamtown seems to be made up almost entirely of Americans (or Canadians - seriously who can tell them apart?) who are used to viewing the rest of humanity as something from another planet (generally a smaller, inferior planet such as Planet X - seriously you HAVE to click that link), that makes this crime against human dignity go unnoticed in their minds.

No more! On behalf of all my kenshi at DojoMojo I hereby swear that we are going to continue beating Slamtown just like we did last night until this crime against humanity is put right.


*NB not one word of the above is to be taken seriously, and any resemblance to teams or individuals living or deceased is entirely co-oincidental. Except for the bit about beating Slamtown.

Bugs - Trev
Both the Buggers and Blitz 1 started the game with real intensity. There was quick disc movement from both teams and quick scoring points. The Buggers came out and gave a solid performance  but the youth and athleticism of the Blitz team proved too much. With some break points, Blitz took the half with a healthy 3 point lead. The Buggers fought hard throughout the second half. The were some zone points to break the flow of Blitz's offence coupled with hard man defence. Blitz proved too strong and continued to build their lead to take the game away.

Blitz 2 - Craig
Blitz 2 v Cobras, well we did convert our first 2 offensive points to be 2 -2, but from there it was all Cobras for the rest of the night. Cobras raced to 6-2, with quick hucks to much taller receivers after turns.  Cobras took half fast and were on a roll. To our credit we did manage to score more in the second half, usually from hammers. End score 15 -5.  Thanks to Cobras for the game, sadly we couldn't make more of the game for you. 

Heroes - Seb
Heroes knew that this week would not be an easy win against UQ, given that they had recorded two solid wins against Blitz 2 and Buggers in the preceding rounds.  We were fortunate enough to have a reliable 7 players for the night, and the consistency we got from that enabled us to play some pretty ultimate. UQ fought hard but found scoring difficult, especially without the composure of league MVP BW. Mikey and Brad cleaned up on the defensive front both getting a number of blocks and Mike got himself a layout. Heroes converted a number of the opportunities we were given and ran away 15-6 victors. Well done to Gary and Baynes who were UQ's best on the night.

  1. Cobras - Troy

    With the rain enforced break from BPL, the Cobras were all sitting around looking quite sad when Alex and Reece looked each other in the eyes; this was only enabled by Reece standing on a chair. Then suddenly they both excitedly high fived each other, the rest of us were left a bit bewildered, this isn't that unusual they do have some strange esp thing sometimes. Eventually, they filled us in with the highest-pitched voices I have heard in a long time "With all this extra time, just imagine all the activities we can do!" This resulted in the two Dans springing to their feet like someone had just told them they were about to get Orange Mocha Frappuchinos. The next part however lowered everyone's lowered everyone's spirits. Alex suddenly said "01001000 01101111 01110111 00100000 01100001 01110010 01100101 00100000 01111001 01101111 01110101 00100000 01010010 01100101 01100101 01100011 01100101 00111111". After a few moments Reece piped up with what we believe was a response "01001001 00100111 01101101 00100000 01100111 01101111 01101111 01100100 00101100 00100000 01101000 01101111 01110111 00100000 01100101 01111000 01100011 01101001 01110100 01101001 01101110 01100111 00100000 01101001 01110011 00100000 01100001 01100011 01110100 01101001 01110110 01101001 01110100 01111001 00100000 01110100 01101001 01101101 01100101 00100001" It seems they think that this is an activity, however really it isn't anything except the real cause of global warming. So we left them and thought that Wetnose might have a better activity we were wrong again. His was simply to grow a mullet. This was instantly attacked by Finn saying "That isn't an activity, what's wrong with you? Were you dropped as a baby?" Wetnose's response was quite dismissive and said "If a mullet is an ability for Captain Planet then getting the ability is an activity!" As you could imagine this argument wasn't very productive and bored the rest of us, well except for DW he loves Captain Planet.

    Cobras Win 15-5
