Round 6 Winter - Seccers 7 HTW 2 (official score)
[story updated]
With most of the so called stars missing from action & 2 legends of the game missing limbs & hamstrings & unable to run on to the ball, let alone catch it, the seccers were on a hiding to nothing.
Of course you knew i was talking about Xman (whose x factor is dropping the ball in all imaginable ways) & Rupert, both whose hammys had shrivelled away to the proportions of a high note guitar string.
There wasn't much to laugh & cheer about early on, as we coughed up ball after ball & but the line defence held up well, despite a rare blemish by Burkles who let a soft one in on the half time bell.
The second half was supposed to be played conservately, according to Burkles half time recommendations, with the dummy half and roll-ball-dude to pass to each other for 5 touches and then shove the ball up your arse and run over to Adelaide Avenue and dodge the traffic.
Fark that of course, as we continued to Fiji it and fortunately the balls were caught, despite some loose passes with the soap like ball.
There was one hilarious moment when the opposition asked the touch count & some sneaky Seccers rat aka the Soulman, told them it was the 5th, only for it to back fire as Grimspoon demanded the ball next touch with everyone thinking his brain exploded. "Except the 'black' guy who tried to give me the ball" said the white Spoon.
We could have scored many more touchdowns but the last pass was either wildly sprayed onto Adelaide Ave (Big Pete, I said I wouldn't say anything... until the blog) or dropped on the wing over the line.
However, the best was saved to last, with a siren sounding try spectacular from Willy who threw a cut out to Billy the Kid on the wing. As the ball looked headed to the dirt yet again, Billy scooped the ball mm's from the ground and slid across the line in a triple-double movement, to bring joy to all involved.
AND REMEMBER (Esp Billy Haydos) WE HAVE THE BYE NEXT WEEK DUE TO STATE OF ORIGIN
where was Bucky, Woody and Psycho? did you lose your hammy's too??
ReplyDeleteWe missed Buck's smarts in defence.
Sorry guys - hope to return next week - flew in with Grimmo at 6:30 from Brisbane last night.
ReplyDeleteMmm, did some one tell Buck it was his shout again??
ReplyDeleteTo the "poster" who said they "flew in with Grimmo" at 6.30 last night must have been with a different Grimmo as he was doing his best on the field at 6.50pm
ReplyDeleteNice one Jules.
ReplyDeleteThe little man worked some magic for us from dummy half and opened them up. Think it was the jelly beans out of the "prescription bag" that did the trick.
How about a late training run next week boy's - 7.30pm - 9.30pm at the Kingo!!
ReplyDeleteSorry boys - still had stitches from my bottom the week before plus busted shoulder from tag the week before too...oh and snapped at work at the moment (as is Stu).
ReplyDeleteThanks for the game boys….
ReplyDeleteMany more wins like that and I can see Psycho doing a nude run..
Back in Canberra for a couple of weeks....good to not be living out of a Qantas lounge for a change. Interstate sleeve sponsorship negotiations very positive but very difficult on the liver!
ReplyDeleteI am feeling very large after several nights on the soup.......too fat now to fit into my shorts to make an appearance for the mighty Seccers!
