ORFFF Round 12 round review - (ChatGPT) limerick style

Rutherglen's Fugitives fought hard,
But the Stony Ponys had the trump card,
With a score of twelve-oh-three,
They rode to victory,
Leaving Rutherglen's hopes a bit scarred.

Heard Island's Shags took to the field,
But Drouin's Dropbears refused to yield,
With a score of ten-sixty-two,
They knew just what to do,
Leaving the Shags' dreams unconcealed.

Walpole's Woylies were on a roll,
Against Maralinga, they took control,
With thirteen-oh-eight on the board,
Their victory struck a chord,
Leaving Maralinga with a deep toll.

Useless Loop's Virgins showed their might,
Against Wedge Island, they took flight,
With a score of thirteen-forty-three,
Their dominance was plain to see,
Leaving Wedge Island in the night.

Mt Thirsty's Boozers came to play,
Against Black Swamp, they held sway,
With fourteen-oh-five on their side,
They took the victory in stride,
Leaving Black Swamp in disarray.

Macquarie Island's Whales made a splash,
Against Sherwood, they had the dash,
With twelve-fifty-four on the line,
Their victory was oh so fine,
Leaving Sherwood feeling the lash.

Neptune Island's Noahs sailed strong,
Against Jan Juc, they did belong,
With thirteen-sixty-nine as their might,
They conquered with all their might,
Leaving Jan Juc's hopes in a pong.

Port Lincoln's Power charged ahead,
Against Nangkita, they led,
With nine-ninety-eight to show,
Their victory began to glow,
Leaving Nangkita filled with dread.

 

Congrats to the Noahs, Boozers and Ponys who have all officially confirmed their 2024 finals positions

We reconvene for ORFFF Round 13 held over AFL Round 16, but in the meantime will be farewelling some of the current playing crop and welcoming new faces via the current trade and draft period

Good luck all
