Official Match Thread Season 30, Round 16: Gold City Royals vs Gumbies FFC @ The Golden Throne (MOTR)

[SM]

​

The Gumbies travel to The Golden Throne in the final round of the season to take on the dominant Gold City Royals. Both teams have won four of their last five clashes, with a spot in the top 4 on the line for the Gumbies if they can snag the win and other results go their way.

Players to watch:

• In all likelihood, The Filth Wizard will take out the Fred medal assuming he stays within 5 goals of Sab22, having managed 8 goals last time out​
• Kapow!!! managed a massive 40 touches last time out in a clear case of leather poisoning​
• Jivlain was prolific as well, managing 28 touches in the Gumbies win against the Swamprats​
• Rodney Dangerfield managed 6 goals in his last match as the Gumbies forward line clicked into gear ahead of finals.​

Tip: Gumbies by 24

Lets go Gumbies, lets get this top 4 spot!

Time for revenge for earlier in the season Royals. Your stacked 6 won't be stopping us this round.

Thanks for the write up SM

Top 4 is in sight. Get out of our ladder spot TedDougChris.

We're 6-2 since I altered my Sunday afternoon routine.

That routine cannot be replicated this weekend.

I am scared of the chaos that will ensue.

On the other side, I've been pulled in four of the last fives games, and I am hoping by doing something different pre-game I might actually get to stay in the midfield for 100 minutes again. I'd trade that for the win, honestly.

I think we can come to some arrangement with your captain on this. He's a generous individual. Conceding now will make it that much easier come Sunday.

Can I trust your captain to let me run rampant and roam free without a tag though? I need a guaranteed 3 votes.

Dear Mr DougChris

Would you be so kind as to vacate the fourth position on the Sweet FA ladder as we would like to occupy that place.

Kind regards
Gumbies FFC

Baz is a free-willed individual. Depending on what side of the bed he wakes up on, he may allow that or you could get 3 spitcoal votes. You have been warned.

I play in the forward pocket. Nothing I do should have any bearing on your performance.

Give me 6 goals and I'll give you a draw.

 

[Rodney Dangerfield]

Big, big game.. the type in which I thrive.

 

[Riviat]

Give me 6 goals and I'll give you a draw.

With this we will overtake the Roys in 4th spot. We graciously accept this offer.

Hello friends

 

[Riviat]

Hello friends

Hello MP, welcome to the MOTR.

I hope you are as pleased as I am that we have been recognised as the MOTR for the second game in a row. Us, as in the Gumbies, not the Royals that are the reason behind this!

 

[Genghis Tron]

The stacked six ain't shit.

 

[Genghis Tron]

Give me 6 goals and I'll give you a draw.

Deal but I'm giving Sab 7.

 

[MrPremiership]

The stacked six ain't sh*t.

Yes, we are not sh*t.

We are pretty good.

 

[Genghis Tron]

Yes, we are not sh*t.

Pretty good don't win flags m'boy.

You're coming up against a real backline now.

Overrated

 

[MrPremiership]
