Round 14 – AFL Round 14 Date Thursday 27th August 2020 THEME: Fantasy Saviour Round We all know the feeling. That feeling when some normally non-descript performer steps up with a Messiah-esque performance to propel our underperforming bunch of triers to something resembling brilliance. Or maybe just competence, I don't know. Of course most of the time this is something that happens for other teams, and usually occurs when you are playing those other teams. So let’s celebrate Fantasy Saviour Round with the hope that we all get a God-like performance from one of our chosen 15 this weekend. Disclaimer: Hope for God-like performance only valid if your bunch of triers isn’t playing my bunch of triers.

Done mate Also believe the lockout issue for Lions/Crows has been resolved so should all be fine to edit your squads now
The Nuffers have named their Round 14 squad to take on the Cockatoos @anthak Chris Mayne replaces Luke Brown, while Duursma replaces Charlie Cameron. In a startling 3rd change Mat Rowell wandered onto the park just before the game commenced and the match committee got over excited and name him in this weeks team at the expense of Ed Richards. Hill is once again named as an emergency this time in the ruck backing up Levi Casboult, while we hope that Paddy Dow can better his season average of 27 and earn a spot in our Round 15 (AFL 9s) side. We fully expect to cop another battering as we move commence the final month of the 2020 season, but after falling 5 points short last week another 1000 plus would be welcomed
Stoked to have Joe Daniher back. A solid score just a bonus, but it won't matter much against Gundagai, especially when Bruce and Vandermeer combine for 20 to add to our donuts. DEF: Docherty, Crisp, Pittard, Simpson MID: Parker, Gaff, Higgins, Vandermeer RUCK: Fiorini OOP, (Taylor OOP) FWD: Greene, Bruce, Henry, Daniher INT: Hogan, Pickett.
