    Jinkies! What a round of footy! This review is a childish, rhyming, first thing that came to mind, haphazard bullshit take on individual performances rather than anything team oriented.

    Legend:
    Rookie - best playing rookie (rookie is potentially a very loose term)

    Wookiee - embodies the “Chewy” ethos of doing fuck all except moaning and scratching various body parts

    Cookie - feasts on the fantasy spoils like a googly eyed twat

    Sookie - that roller coaster player who dazzles one minute and confounds the next


    First up, the Cradle Mountain Devils unleashed their full power against the Gariwerd Cockatoos securing a dominant 1448-968 victory. The Cockatoos fought bravely, but alas, they were the year 3 little athletics version of brave.

    Rookie - Harvey Langford, nice season
    Wookiee - Lachie Bramble, da fuq
    Cookie - Rowan Marshall, wowee
    Sookie - Ben King, uber-coaster


    Meanwhile, the Mount Beauty Uglies put up a pretty facade against the Dunsborough Dung Beetles prevailing 1184-1118 in a clash tighter than a Goldstein ballot box.

    Rookie - Steely Green, rookie ish
    Wookiee - Archie Perkins, peak Dons
    Cookie - Max Gawn, no it’s a fucking goat
    Sookie - Noah Balta, Baz Hall love child


    In a battle of pure determination, the Junee Jaguars pounced late to down the Waikickamoocow Incorrigibles 1207-1106. It was an awkward tussle that resembled a cringy Pulp Fiction petting zoo with Gimp Daniel up forward and a balding Minge down back.

    Rookie - Murphy Reid, noice pick
    Wookiee - Cal Ward, tick tock
    Cookie - Tim Taranto, finally
    Sookie - Tim Kelly, enigma


    The Charlies Opening Spelunkers announced themselves premiership favourites , storming past Iron Knob 1407-1228. The Spelunkers were relentless, plumbing their depth and giggling like fat cave spiders.

    Rookie - Levi, give him the star
    Wookiee - Merrett, peak Dons
    Cookie - Jack Sinclair, see footy, eat footy
    Sookie - Naicos, me tag you long time


    A nail-biter unfolded as the Wagga Wagga Wombats clawed their way past the Lovely Banks Lilacs 1054-1049. This was footy at its finest—tense, dramatic, delicious and katzajamming.

    Rookie - Trainor, everyone’s favourite D6
    Wookiee - Jez Sharp, very meh to be blunt
    Cookie - Libba, wink wink nudge nudge say no more
    Sookie - The Wizard, magically annoying


    The Packers fought valiantly but succumbed to the force of the new world Nuffers 1327-1310. A match as topsy turvy as Michael Christian’s match review Magic 8 ball, this went right down to the wire.

    Rookie - Sims, ruck rookie to the rescue
    Wookiee - Ben Keays, special
    Cookie - Bailey Dale, 49 if ya don’t mind
    Sookie - Jim Worpel, that Mo, just No


    It was a landslide victory for the Larrikin Lagoon Lefties, obliterating the Venus Bay Vultures 1140-834. The Lefties will bathe in this eternal victory sunshine for years. It’s all we got.

    Rookie - Sam Lalor, pick 1 areas
    Wookiee - Parker, took a back seat for the team
    Cookie - Xerri, baby
    Sookie - double donut


    And finally, the Birdsville Battlers got bug slapped to the tune of 246 points (1192-1438) against the swarming Grasshoppers. A walk in the park for the “other” contender with a sombre defence glossed by a blinding engine room with points to burn.

    Rookie - Xavier Lindsey, much adored cow
    Wookiee - Sam Flanders, nek minnit he’s rucking
    Cookie - Bailey Smith, wtf is a Bazlenka?
    Sookie - Clarry, which one we got this week

    Brilliant Mike. I think some junk time goals to Mr Higgins may have been the only reason I scraped over the line. Could've given me the Wookie as a numpty coach for leaving Rhylee West and his 100+ on the pine.

    The Packers are most definitely on their way - Tracey has assembled a really handy line-up.

    Great read, particularly enjoyed "in a clash tighter than a Goldstein ballot box." and "an awkward tussle that resembled a cringy Pulp Fiction petting zoo with Gimp Daniel up forward and a balding Minge down back."

    Spelunkers staying humble, unlike Manchester Citeh
