This weeks discussion is plain & simple – “Hard Luck Stories”. My captain, Jed Adcock, goes down with a season ending knee injury with a score of 10. Had he not gained a possession, “Fevs” points would’ve been doubled as my vice captain.

I’m sure there’s plenty this week. Cox, Ablett & Sandilands have to be just three along with Bartel’s quite game.

Dream Team Wars

Second win in a row for my “Great Izzacs” is a rare feat this season. We defeated the bottom placed “Carlisle Cobras” by 542 points. Quinten Lynch, Jason Akermanis, Kurt Tippett, Brendan Fevola, Jason Gram & new boy Andrew Swallow were all ton makers. Jed Adcock was a casualty in a cursed year for injuries on my team. Maybe I should trade for Collingwood players to ruin their season.

A big week of upsets occurred this weekend & that’s not surprising considering the huge “DreamTeam” names that either were injured or withdrew late.

Let’s start with Deano’s giant killers upsetting “Sheryl’s Saints” by 39 points for their first loss of the season. Considering only Hamish McInstosh & Nick Riewoldt scored over the ton, Deano might’ve been worried a little, especially with the late withdrawal of Andrew Mackie. But six players in the nineties was a huge help.

Also of help was the injury to Jed Adcock & the withdrawal of Adam Schneider, so lady luck was definitely riding on Deano’s side this week.

Another huge upset was Arianna’s “Royal Kinghts” suffering a 130 point loss to the “GoldCoast Clubbers”. Brendan Fevola, Ryan O’Keefe & a surprising Ricky Petterd were the ton makers. Again, without Mackie, Ablett, Sandilands & Steve Johnson, although Johnson didn’t play the week before, either Arianna is running out of trades or she paid little respect to the opposition.

This puts Jermayn’s “Germinators” above Arianna in 3rd place after a huge 781 point win over the “Waikiki Whackers”. Who topped over 2,000 for the first time.

Alan Didak, Jason Porplyzia, Greg Broughton, Liam Anthony, Paul Chapman, Lance Franklin, McIntosh & Joel Corey were the ton makers in what was the leagues 2nd biggest score of the week.

Michael’s “Dorkers” defeated the “Greenfield Giants” by 250 points. Fevola, Brian Lake & Corey were the only ton makers & there was about eight in the eighties. Although a win is a win, I’d say Michael wouldn’t be overly happy with the team.

Johnny’s “diamond12” went down to “Lemming Lightning” by 173 points. Jonathan Brown, Quinten Lynch, Kurt Tippett & Nick Maxwell scored tons. With only one in the nineties, Johnny didn’t have the wretched luck of some, but the backline was seriously out of form.

Next Weeks Dream Team Wars Matches

Next week, Deano’s “Nambucca Axemen” takes on the “Leemming Lightning” in a battle to possibly pinch a top four place.

Johnny’s “diamond12” drew the short straw this week taking on “Sheryl’s Saints” who’ll be looking for revenge after losing their first match of the season.

Arianna’s “Royal Knights” have a danger game against “Frazer’s Flames” while Jermayn’s “Germinators” & my “Great Izzacs” take on the bottom two teams in the “Carlisle Cobras” & “Waikiki Whackers”.
