guessing you complained about the ending to the Sopranos as well. the score is left up to the interpretation of the reader
Hughenden defeated a depleted Bunyip side 1201 to 810 the Bunyips were in trouble before the game started with a reduced player line up, substitutes arriving late and no team cohesion. It was not the ideal way to start 2021 and the home team took full advantage with Mills (154), Oliver (122), Ward(110) and Shiel (104) leading the way. Hughenden were again ruckless and had to rely on the debutant mid Berry (30) to take on the bigger, taller and more experienced O'Brien (55) , nearly outpointing him on the day. The only shining lights for the Bunyips were Walsh (122) and Hardwick (90) There is really not a lot more to say, Hughenden did what they needed to do to win and the Bunyips tried valiantly all day with 13 men. 3 - Mills (154) - HPD 2 - Oliver (122) - HPD and Walsh (122) - BB

Bulls Gropers update @eagle_eyed In a half time score reminiscent of their famous clash in 2016 (where the Bulls came from nowhere to steal that game) its the Gropers seemingly in control of this one. SFB 616/9/68 SCS 669/8/83
Coolgardie have overrun the Crocs to take out the match by 27 points (subject to scaling), 1147 to 1120. Match report to come.
The might of the Buffalo arrived at Ararat for their Round 2 encounter, however unfortunately for @wrightbrendan a bunch of lads didnt show up. Crawling to a measly score of 1,071, which is well below what they're capable of, the Serengeti squad were rumoured to have been on the piss the night before the clash. Both Liam Henry and Dyson Heppell missed the team bus, with Draper (23) and Jones (5) probably wishing they did too, as they clearly couldnt fornicate in the proverbial establishment. Ballard was happy with his call-up from the twos and knocked up a nice 82, which unfortunately would have been at home in the Buffalos midfield which only averaged 89. The bookends of Ridley (136) and Dixon (100) were wonderful, but too many passengers after that. Whilst the home side is banged up with 4 first-choice players sidelined (Rowell, Rozee, Wingard & L. McDonald), they were satisfied with the form of most. The Beard (137) bounced back from a sub-par round 1 and Brayshaw kept his ascent going with a wonderful 132. Stewart (83) let the backline cohort down however, being the only member who didnt manage triple figures. The Coaches award once again went to a revitalised Tom McDonald (87), who may not be there when the whips are cracking in September, but is stringing some good performances together right now. Final result: Ararat 1329 defeat Serengeti 1071
@YAD69 After last weeks win with a man down and 3 big gun out we felt very optimistic about our chances, but one week in football is an eternity. We showed very early on that the second string players couldnt handle the pressure, cuddas were biting at the chance at every encounter they had winners on every line. When you face a team that averages 100 for each player you'll always be trying to catch there tail, and that's what happened. Vikings had 4 ton's which was respectable with boom recruit Hurn leading the way but below shows what we were up against. Cuddas dominated with some massive tons and "how good is Gulden"? Vikings: Shannon Hurn (105): Floating at half back Hurn added 24 touches and 7 marks. Seb Ross (113): … 28 possessions and 5 marks plus 4 tackles. Playing midfield. Tom Mitchell (103): Playing in midfield Mitchell contributed with 37 disposals, 7 grabs and 2 tackles. Isaac Heeney (101): Starting forward Heeney contributed with 14 disposals, 8 marks and 3.0. Marcus Bontempelli (143): Leading the inside midfield Bontempelli contributed with 30 touches, 6 marks, 2 tackles and 3.1 Aaron Naughton (109): Starting deep forward Naughton contributed with 13 disposals, 8 marks, 2 tackles and 3.2. Jamie Cripps (109): Starting at half forward Cripps contributed with 13 possessions, 4 marks, 6 tackles and managed 0.1. Cameron Guthrie (125): Doing jobs in midfield Guthrie contributed with 28 possessions, 9 grabs and 5 tackles. Rhys Stanley (120): First ruck Stanley contributed with 22 touches, 7 marks, 24 ruck taps and kicked 0.2. Tom Hawkins (135): Up forward contributed with 17 touches, 5 marks, 4 hit outs and 3.4. Errol Gulden (136): Second game… 1.1 from 22 possessions and 7 marks plus 2 tackles. Rotating midfield and forward. Jake Lloyd (124): Starting at half back Lloyd contributed with 26 disposals, 4 marks and 2 tackles. 3.Bont 2.Gulden 1. Hawkins Ruck. Stanley
I don't understand why this is getting so many likes. I had to read right to the end of it to get the final result...
