Round 9 (AFL 9) 24/5 - 26/5
Geek Pride round
Round 9 is the first of the returning themes of 2012 - Geek Pride round. Geek Pride day is on may 25th and we figure it is quite geeky to play in a fantasy football competition such as this ... There are actually quite a few significant days on the 25th and 26ht May that the geek's had to fight off... and they did.




With Chris88 unavailable to do a writeup this week, and nobody else putting their hand up to fill in, I have managed to put together a brief recap of round 8.


# Home Away
1 Marble Bar 1159 lost to Gariwerd 1192
A close loss to Marble Bar in a fairly low scoring afair. Best scorers were Jack Steven and Jarrod Waite for Marble bar and Kobe Stevens for Gariwerd

An upset win to the Lefties. Best scorers were NicNat and Mzungu for Larrikin Lagoon and Mayne for Birdsville.


3 Whitsundays 1103 defeated Nunnawading 1075
The late out of Grant Birchall wasnt enough to stop Whitsunday from getting a win here. Best scorers were Adam goodes for Nunnuwading and Barlow for Whitsunday.


4 Waikickamoocow 1378 defeated Darraweit Guim 1224
A fairly high scoring game saw the Cows run out winners. Highest scorers were Boyd and Rance for Darraweit Guim and Taylor and Fyfe for Waikikamoocow.


5 Powlett Plains 1195 lost to Iron Knob 1369
As expected, the mighty CodPieces have continued on their winning way. Best scorers were Ablett, Douglas, Griffen and Darling, all from Iron Knob; and Newman was Powlett Plains' best scorer.


6 Lovely Banks 1028 lost to Mount Beauty 1037
An extremely close match saw the Uglies win by just 9 points in a very low scoring game! The only centurian for the winners was Cotchin and for Lovely Banks they had Adcock, Lucas and Ballantyne reach triple figures.


7 Venus Bay 1377 defeated Charlies Opening 1345
Another high scoring game, with Charlies opening unlucky to lose this week scoring greater than 1300. Best scorers were Watson and Mundy for Venus Bay and Montagna and Swallow for the Opening.


8 Foul Bay 1413 defeated Wagga Wagga 1281
The defending champs record probably their most comfortable victory of the season against a high flying Wagga Wagga. Best scorers were Kerridge for Wagga Wagga and Bartel, Dangerfield and Vince for the Foul Bay.


9 Gundagai 677 lost to Cradle Mountain 1295
Another big loss for the struggling Grasshoppers! Maybe we need a mercy rule? Best scorers were SJ, Pendles and Zaha for Cradle Mountain and ROK was best for Gundagai.

Round 10 (AFL 10) 31/5 - 3/6

International World's Whore Day



International World Whore Day is on June 2nd, and in the words of one of the esteemed members of the Match Committee: 'Am all for International World's Whore Day - albeit not compulsory to consort.' Most of us are wage slaves in this world and it is important to support our fellow workers, the sex workers, on a day such as this. Maybe, because of the occasion, the lads from Marble Bar may be lucky enough to stay at 'The Hen House' as the Cockatoos did last season.
