VRL Round 3 teams

[Nutzcraw]

Wholesale changes for Boozehounds

Coach Nutzcraw has made wholesale changes in the search for more points out of his team. Nutzcraw had this to say when i caught up with him this morning at training, "well we have got the 2 points in both games so far this year but it's our defence that has us winning and we can't rely on it for the rest of the season, so i've tinkered with the team quite a bit in search for more points" Matthew Head is available for selection this week but Coach Nutzcraw isn't sure which halves combination he'll go for. "Yeah heady is back this week but he might be a bit scratchy his first game back.. so we are not sure whether we'll throw him straight into the mix, the halves haven't scored alot of points for us thus far so there is every chance he'll play but we'll make up our mind closer to the day"

After Tonie Carroll was suspended for 2 weeks their has been a re shuffle to the back row. "yeah, junior moors has come onto the run on team and so has Matthew Bell this week with Simon Mannering going back to lock and Carl Webb moving up to the front row, Simon has had a great start to the season and it's a real convenience to have a versatile player like him and charlie webb can play up front no worries"

When asked whether he is afraid of the fact they could crash to their first loss this week if they don't fire, nutzcraw replied "well, we are up against Doug's Dazzlers and they might aswell have no one on their roster they are that bad"

So, after a big week of changes Coach Nutzcraw has named this side for the round 3 clash against Cellar Dwellers "Dougs Dazzlers"

I assume whoever has hodges is in for a good weekend?

 

[Fluffy]

Silent bob has scored, i struggled to get a half back/ 5/8 because they were all part time kickers and he has lockyer and johns.

thats ****ed

 

[Nutzcraw]

Benji finally crossed the line for me last night!!

I'm thinking of giving up Grant Rovelli or Matty Head if you have anyone decent to swap me for, fluff?

 

[Nutzcraw]

Just looked at your team... there's no one i'd swap Rovelli or Head for

 

[Fluffy]

not even stewy?

not that id give him up

yeah its a **** team, thats the problem with the trading period when you cant be there

 

[Matabele]

How happy am I that I took the punt on Ballin in said trading period?

 

[Fluffy]

wait until dunleys back before you count your chickens

 

[fLIP]

I dropped Luke Covell during the week. He was costing me more points. I picked up Nathan Merrit and he got a double last night. Even though he isn't the kicker he is still earning me more points than Covel does with is missed attempts and MIA penalties.

 

[Disco]

Twice this year i've picked Richie Williams, and twice this year his missed out

The 2 rounds i didn't pick him his scored 4 tries.................god damm

Not a bad effort given we're in Round Three.

 

[Disco]

sorry, i've only picked him once, the one time he didn't score a double
