Official Match Thread Season 34 Round 9: West Coast Wonders vs Coney Island Warriors at The Colosseum

[Elton Johns Wig]

Hello and welcome to this weeks match thread, an EJW Countdown Special Event. I spoke to Molly, and he is absolutely fine with my blatant rip off of his life’s work.





VS

WEST COAST WONDERS​

With the West Coast Wonders, unlike with some teams where players names have given me inspiration, I found none. They just don’t inspire me. BUT, their team name does. West Coast is one of two teams where the names have cultural significance when it comes to music, in this case West Coast Hip Hop. Gangsta Rap and its sub genre G Funk were huge from the late 80s onwards. None of the current squad give off any hard vibes, although I would like to see Brenton Davy in some colours, that would be cool. And I'm sorry SSwans2011 for not posting some deeper cuts, but it's for the masses, not aficionados like yourself. ClarkeM if you need an explanation of what I just said to SSwans, just ask him. It won't hurt, the first cut is the deepest.

Here are 3 classic tracks:

CONEY ISLAND WARRIORS​

Unlike the insipid Wonders, the Warriors provided loads of inspiration. First up, Piggy Smalls, A.K.A The Notorious P.I.G.



We got an East v West Coast WAR here!!





Next up we have PhatBoy Slim with one of the great film clips featuring the great Christopher Walken.





And last, but not least, here’s Tonga Bob Marley with the classic Three Little Birds





I’m tipping the Wazzas by Three Little Goals.





Captains, please have your teamsheets in by 11.59pm Thursday night

Warriors are hot off a win last week. Instead of having a holiday with the bye we played the inaugural warriors from yesteryear, dragging most out of the Valhalla Retirement Home.

So we're match ready, not lazy bums like most bye teams.

 

[HARPSichord]

Another week, another W inbound for the Wonders.

We can't stop winning, just ask Wojcinski and AnUltimateRessie. (Sorry SSwans2011 and SM)

 

[Frothies Mcveigh]

Snoop Davy has a nice ring to it, time to start rocking some braids I reckon Brenton Davy

 

[Piggy Smalls]

Tough game this week against the best side named West Coast in any footy comp anywhere.

 

[Wojcinski]

I remember the Warriors were always the lamest team filled with flogs who couldn't hack it on the Bay

Is that still the case?

I can confirm I’m a flog but I don’t know what the rest means.
