Once again, thanks to all who've made the trek over to this new promised land of debate and discussion.

I just watched the replay of the game and I have to say, this team just absolutely blew me away. It had everything we have all been craving for many years. Energy, synergy, enthusiasm, strength, unity, youthful exuberance and above all, pride in the jersey. Klemmer was outstanding, Reimis, Rhyse, JMK, Dutchy, Brown... on it goes. What a transformation and the boys gave it there all gave some pride back to their coach as well.  Well done.
To think, all this time there was this hidden talent squirreled away in regies and one stubborn old fool would not open that cupboard to have a look what was inside.

Yes, we are still underdone and can fade in and out of concentration, but FMD, what a turnaround considering the problems and rot that has set in in past seasons and this one in particular. So, I look forward to the talent coming through from the juniors and whomever the talents scouts can conjur up for us as the seasons progress.

Onwards and upwards with the rebuilding of this fine club.

Absolutely Vallo.
For years ive been saying that form in reserves or 20's has no real bearing on how a player will perform in first grade. I only saw a couple of half performances by Lewis last year but i immediately thought he had the skills to be good in first grade. Yestersay he proved it.
Granted it was Newcastle and they lost key players but he was quite involved for the 80mins and outshone the more fancied Cogger. Cogger kicks well and that alone will probably see him in the halves next year but i really think Lewis should partner him. JMK is probably the best defender in our team and has to be in the team. I would say he will move to hooker and id like to see more of Nu Brown. 

Agree with Steve in that losing mbye and woods has been a bit of a blessing. It has forced us into looking within and sharing responsibilities.

Hope they keep it up

Yes i got a pm  from HD on Punters...he is over there :)

At least he's ok. It seemed funny though. :)

Punters had private messages all this time? We learn something every day...

Yeah I posted asking him to contact and he pm'd...Punters will probably close us down tomorrow 2nd July,  so I really wanted to find him...I guess I assumed he would be the first one on here (after you BN :) asked him if he was joining in here an hour ago but havent heard. 

I joined league unlimited but it is a lot more difficult to navigate with a mobile than here.

Glad to see them get a good win last night. They really played well.
It was very toe to toe until the Knights lost half their spine 1st half, which tilted the result one way in more ways than one. They never gave up though.
Most tragic to see the knee injury to their #9. That was terrible, like his leg from the knee down was just flapping about in the air held on by nothing but skin. Horrific.
Lewis handled his debut really well, but got a nose job for the trouble.
Great Smith/Dutchie combo, that was brilliant.

HI Guys,

Made it here finally.... great to get a win...

I hope everyone made it here..

HD

Apologies for being slow on the uptake....my daughter had some friends, over the noise volumes degrade the brain...

Just turned on Tiges game to see how Mbye going.

Yes they lost.. I only saw the last 2 mins
Titans are a reasonable side....

Mbye still more the athlete rather than the footy player me thinks.

We now turn our attention to our new rockstar fullback :)

Welcome back hound.

So Dan you're Weekender but everyone else is under 7's, how did you wrangle that?

Dan.... I’m not watching the game, what did Mr L Coote do?

Playing in the wet .. Coote is walking on water.
