More devastating news for the Sherwood Magpies on top of the season ending injury to Dev Robertson. KPF Sam Darcy will be sent for scan on a suspected ACL injury. Key rucks Flynn and Biggs also on the outer with the head coach and looking as if game time will be limited. Bench depth will be tested for the remainder of the season. Some big decisions will need to be made during mid season draft.
TAKE-2 We have shuffled the magnets around a bit. Heard Island Shags In: Lachie Jaques, Zane Zakostelsky, Calsher Dear. (Ryan Maric also might be a late-in for Zakostelsky, but both are questionable to play, so we might need to play this one a man down like last week) Out: Sam Clohesy, Jake Soligo. DEF: Riley Bice, Lachie Jaques, Judd McVee, Zane Duursma (Josh Goater) MID: Elijah Tsatas, Massimo D'Ambrosio, Harry Schoenberg, Sam Davidson (Jake Soligo) RUCK: Zane Zakostelsky (Ryan Maric -oop) FWD: Josh Treacy, Sam Lalor, Patrick Voss, Calsher Dear (Cameron Nairn) INT: Jagga Smith, Zeke Uwland
We're happy that Zakostelsky passed his fitness test and was able to take his place in the ruck for us
In the dying moments of our game in Heard Island, @tyze1 Fugitives have a decent lead over the Shags, but the Shags are kicking with the wind in the last quarter! Heard Island - 758/11/69 (McVee, Schoenberg, Treacy, Voss) Rutherglen - 968/13/74 (Ginbey, WDuursma)
Unofficial final scores show a 70-point win to Rutherglen 1108-1038, but the local fans were very happy with the competitive efforts put in by the Shags!
The ORFFF review is courtesy of ChatGPT and inspired by Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, ------------------------------- If you don’t chew Big Red, then you… probably still watched ORFFF Round 5, because buddy, this week had more twists than a drunk pit crew on roller skates. We came in hot, engines revving, and what do we get? SIX road teams winning. Six! That’s not a round of fantasy footy—that’s a full-blown invasion. Visiting teams rolled in, kicked the doors down, raided the fridge, and left with the four points and your dignity. Let’s start with the crime scene in Nangkita. The Bucks put up a respectable 1103, the kind of score that says “hey, we’re trying.” But the Port Lincoln Power showed up like Ricky Bobby after a cougar attack—1345 and zero apologies. That wasn’t a win, that was a statement written in burnouts. Meanwhile, the Wedge Island White Pointers took care of business against the Black Swamp 29ers, 1267 to 1129. Solid, professional, like a well-oiled shake-and-bake partnership. No drama, just vibes and victory. But then… oh lord, then we hit the Jan Juc Ducks. 642. Six hundred and forty-two. That’s not a score, that’s a cry for help. That’s the SECOND LOWEST score in ORFFF history. I’ve seen lawn chairs put up more resistance. Mt Thirsty Boozers didn’t just beat them—they conducted a public service announcement, 1221 to 642. Somewhere, a duck is filing for emotional damages. Now flip the script to the Macquarie Island Whales, who dropped a massive 1442… and still lost. That’s the 9th highest losing score ever. You put up 1442, you expect a parade, maybe a small statue. Instead, the Walpole Woylies said “that’s cute” and slapped down 1513. The Woylies are now 4-0, sitting on top of the ladder like kings of the mountain, drinking victory out of a gold-plated boot. They’re fast, they’re relentless, and right now they look about as beatable as a brick wall. Neptune Island Noahs quietly handled The Stony Ponys, 1295 to 1175. Two solid scores, but only one ark floats, my friend. Sherwood Magpies swooped into Maralinga and picked off the Atoms, 1193 to 1109. Clinical. Efficient. Like a bird that knows exactly where your chips are. And then… the main event. The kind of finish that makes grown men whisper “don’t you put that evil on me, Ricky Bobby.” Drouin Dropbears: 1322 vs Useless Loop Virgins: 1325. Three. Points. That’s not a margin—that’s a rounding error and the fantasy equivalent of a photo finish at Talladega. Someone sneezes differently and the result flips. The Dropbears did everything right… except the one thing that mattered. And the Virgins? They escape by the skin of their teeth, probably not even sure how they pulled it off, like a driver crossing the line sideways and on fire. Rounding it out, the Rutherglen Fugitives took down the Heard Island Shags, 1108 to 1038. Not flashy, but hey, a win’s a win—take it, cash it, and get outta town before anyone asks questions. So there you have it: road warriors everywhere, Ducks in absolute disarray, Whales heartbroken despite a monster score, and the Woylies standing tall at 4-0 like they own the joint. If you ain’t first, you’re last… unless you score 1442 and still lose, in which case you’re just confused. ---------------------------- Looking ahead to next week we rumble once again starting Thursday.
