Round 10 – AFL Round 10 Date – Friday 21st May 2021 THEME – Left Footers Round This round we all bask in the reflected glory of left-footers - their sublime skills, their brilliance off their 'wrong' side, their raking drop punts catching the autumn sun's rays as the ball spins through the air at a perfect trajectory and velocity, like poetry in motion. But let's just ensure we don't ask them to pinpoint a target from 45m on their right foot. That might not be so pretty, nor as likely to catch the sun's rays.

This is the round where we say farewell to @TheTassieHawk. He is stepping down as coach of the Nuffers, and @chris88 is coming back to ORFFA to take on the franchise after this round. @TheTassieHawk, as the visiting team this weekend, we will ensure that there is a huge amount of pomp and ceremony, including a guard of honour at the end of the game Spelunkers Team, injuries have finally caught up to me:

While the record will show a relatively close match @Len , the points on the E bench tell the real story. Well done to the Misfits.
What a diabolical result in the Klopp Cup with the Spelunkers scoring 1066 (16th highest of the week) but still strolling to a 298 point win. Both teams were pleased with the significantly more important result at Anfield as the 'Pool secured a somewhat flattering 3rd place EPL finish. Right now any loss by less than 400 feels like a close match to the Nuffers, who slump to their 16th consecutive loss to defeat while having a much needed handover to competent management - @chris88 - ahead of a Round 11 clash with the Codpieces.
Hold on, when did I become competent management? Seriously, thanks for the kind wishes, @TheTassieHawk
