Matters little what standard the comp is, you have to beat Essendon however.

Go Dees.

[Biffen 12,944]

Did the Essendon runners have water bottles or IV drips?

[1 red eye 1 blue eye 771]

Well done you Demons.

Not enough of either in the end

[Dinosaur Rover 197]

We win!

Cheers to all

Thanks to organisers

Clearly with a settled coaching set up and without recourse to any....supplemental ingredients other than guts and determination we prevailed

[wonnabeeri 277]

We win by 12 and I kick 1.6, and 2 out on the full. I pretty much single handedly got us over the line....

Thanks to the guys for organising again!

[Redleg 41,406]

Well done guys.

[Goodvibes 3,596]

Came home like the proverbial freight train! Nice work lads. Do we ever lose these games?

[gsmith12 491]

Good question, have we ever been beaten Rollo ?

[DeeVoted 583]

Well done to both teams and organisers. Even better we won.

It was played in honor of one R.Flower, and we win by 2 (gls). No2 lives on.

Can I suggest if the forum footy continues, its named the "Tulip Cup."

[Whispering_Jack 30,575]

Never in doubt and well done to all concerned.

Cheers, gsmith...

! think we have now won 13 out of 14...

We lost to sainsational about 6 years ago when we turned up with 11 players...

that's when we decided to get organised...

bomberblitz have copied our methods, so I expect their first win against us can't be far away...

[rollinson 65 181]

Ugly, congested game on a small oval with no goal posts.

Credit to ucanchoose for dealing with each problem as it arose in his first game as organiser.

I am so happy he stepped up because it was way past time for me to pass the baton.

Credit to dinosaur rover for his inclusive coaching style, which had our blokes playing as a team by the last quarter.

The move of Leeroy and his mate to full forward in the last quarter was a match-winning move

IMO.

Credit to dazzledavey36 for his best on ground performance. It was a close call because we had so many other guys who could have won it.

Credit to our mid-field who gradually wore the talented bomberblitz guys down.

Steve the ruckman and the other guys pumped the ball into our forward line so many times in the last quarter, it would have been impossible to lose.

Credit to Wise, who played another great captain's game and is now our most-capped player (along with the Stynes Factor).

Credit to bomberblitz, who keep coming back at us, and have moved in a few short years from easybeats to respected opponents.

Happy to hear other people's views on the game.

[Madness 44]

Thanks for the day boys, hopefully we have a proper ground next year, impossible to find space as a forward in such a tiny pitch!

Carn the dees!

[Brad 2]

Well done dees on another win

Pretty glad it was a competitive game this time

Steve the ruckman was best on for you guys imo although the dazzle was very good too.... when Leeroy absolutely smashed me in the middle wasn't exactly pleasant lol

Can't wait for the next one!

[Steve the ruckman 3]

Very competitive game, and I still think the move to a smaller ground was deliberate as it threw us out a bit and fell straight I to their hands.

I think every player had a good highlight (or lowlight in bennys instance with 9 shots at goal for 12 points). Always good to see varying levels of footy experience "gel" so well.

Can't wait o next time.

Moving the ground came straight from the Olympic park curators mate..... Threatened us with paying for any damage caused to the turf

[dazzledavey36 55,315]

Great game and well done to everyone playing. Well done to the Bomber boys who continue to want to have a match every year. Keeps it alive and well.

Its starting to become a fiece rivalry now between the two teams.

Its gonna take me another two months to rehab this knee again. My left one is absolutely shot now.....

Now I know why the old fells complain and whinge lol

[ucanchoose 1,816]

[daisycutter 29,707]

good to see cream still rises to the top

[Bitter but optimistic 22,246]

No wonder they were victorious- some scary bas tards in that lot!

[Dockett 32 1,239]

Jesus would you buy a used car from that lot?

Well done boys.

[Steve the ruckman 3]

If anyone can Remember (or have them written) all the scores and opposition we have played (and locations) wouldn't mind seeing the evolution of the team and Compitition, plus I can't for life of me remember which I have been involved with over the 7-8 years. (2 vic park, 2 Olympic? 2 goschs and todays 5c piece)

A overview would be really great after this has begun to thrive.

[dazzledavey36 55,315]

Good looking bunch there haha

Btw Rollo saw you get off at Wang train station tonight was going to go up to you and say gday and shake your hand but you were on the phone.

Hope to bump into you in town sometime soon legend.

That ground really was by far the smallest I have ever played on. Talk about stoppages and congestion wowee!
