A shattered Tim Burkles has handed over his touchdown world record (of 7) to Mike 'The Psycho' Sykes in a scintillating display which saw him bag 9 touchdowns to smash the record.
The new record was ironically achieved against the same team that Burkie made his mark in Round 1 (see Burkie's 7 sets new record in ninja nightmare).
Surely the Seccers must go down in history as the most prolific of prolific scorers.
Summer 2008-09 - Woody moi moi 1 touchdown in a game
Summer 2008-09 - Haydos 4 touchdowns in a game
Summer 2009-10 - Soulmann 6 touchdowns in a game
Winter 2010 - Burkie 7 touchdowns in a game
Winter 2010 - Psycho 9 touchdowns in a gameWith only 6 players for the entire game (starting with only 5 for the first 10 minutes) there were less players to compete for the meat pies. Not that it made much difference as JJ Buckstar and Woody Moi Moi were scoreless in the thumping. But Psycho was in everything. You'd think he was hogging the ball and taking it easy in defence to rest up for another crack. far from it. He was chasing his ring around defending the middle and then the he'd turn defence into attack scoring each and everyone of his tries from long range runs, mostly solo efforts. In fact his tally could have been 10 or 11 cept for a couple of dropped balls as he started to choke up as the record got nearer.
Other notable mentions was a complete turnaround in JJ Buckstar's game attitude, showing such compassion and allowing a decent young kid, showing lots of promise, to get a consolation meatie to keep his hopes up. JJ Soulmann was not so kind and made the poor kid chase him all the way, but still score in the last inch of the corner with the kid mm's away from a heroic effort, despite the calls from Woody and Grimspoon to call the touch anyway. "Stick your hand up kid" said Grim.
And there was another guest appearance of the deadly sniper who shot out Grimpsoon's hammy close to his bum and he fell over in a messy heap. But he still courageously played on, defending on the wing to keep 6 players on the paddock.
So congrats to Psycho for his 9. It's going to be hard to beat.
Even with shrapnel in his lower bum Grimspoon still managed to attempt a shuffling touchdown i nthe corner, even diving full length, rolling onto his back, and attempting a reach around Israel Filau style ball placement...pity he was touched - it looked pretty good anyway!
ReplyDeleteAnd the boys picked up where they left off last week. The hole running was superb with plenty ar switches and wrap arounds and plenty of ball movement. As soon as the hooter went I heard one fella say "I've had enough of this shit". Don't blame him either because we blew at least another 6 Td's.
ReplyDeleteHow funny was Rupes getting stuck into JJ Buckstar about being lazy in defence, when he was letting the young kid score. At least it made it seem convincing and not patronising!!
