NO CHANGE

We smashed them last time, and this time we're adding Gawn, Hogan, Lever, Fritsch and Spargo to the mix as well.  That's scary.

We shouldn't have any trouble accounting for the Dogs.

Yes, but we won't have Jack Watts this time.

Isn't it Round 11?

That emergency list ?.

7 players from that game didn't play last year, including Hogan & Gawn.

Surely we win and win well.

It is ... but it’s nice to live in the (not too distant) past.
