    Lost 20-13 but am proud of the effort my team put up. Opponent was ranked 51 places ahead of me.

    Well done with that, you probably saw in the other semi in our group that I got hammered 56-3 and that was despite chancing my arm with a LTNT :(

    Looks like The Porn Stars played 'normally' against you eofarrell. Might be in for a spot of trouble tomorrow.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,637 ✭✭✭CoDy1


    Got hockey'd 34-7. looks like you'll have me for another season jprender;)

    you still not talking to me?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,386 ✭✭✭jprender


    haha, no worries cody.

    will we get frankie with us next season ?

    I think we will have 2 bots in with us, so normal all the way for me if that is the case.

    Yeah they did i reckon, the match ended out easier than I expected.

    Did cork LTNT you? I am thinking that they normalled you as they are not too tired?

    reckon I could win on Normal and save LTNT for monday? I assume they will LTNT me... so will win if so... decisions decisions

    Yeah got well hockeyed. My tactics were all wrong I think. The ratings after the game were fairly even (well, he was on average a star to half star better on most things) but 35-5 is fairly horrific tbh. :( Disheartening because I have no idea what went wrong, further investigation needed tomorrow I think. Well if I can motivate myself to "analyse" the disaster.

    63-7, playing normally...


    will play LTNT for tomorrows final


  • Registered Users Posts: 171 ✭✭Wylie Luke


    28 0 LTNT, could probably have shaved it Normally but didn't want to risk 3rd or 4th as I really need the cash! Lost my big prop for 4 weeks though, bummer :( but happy with Lineout and scrum, shame ya don't get more details on how the backs preform (stats on the scrum, lineout, ruck, maul and against the head stuf v linebrakes?)

    Overall - happy :)

    Are you a premium member? They give you a lot of that stuff in match stats.

    No, it was LTNT, they had perfect energy levels coming into the match.

    And also, I would have won if they had played normal, so don't be so ****ing insolent. ;)

    Good man JP apologies again, i'm up for an intensity agreement again including frankie, if he gets in.

    Looking to get promoted to div III, not getting my hopes up though. Won my semi 34 - 3 playing LTNT.

    Got my final against the team I finnished first equal with, I got home ground advantage on points difference. Should be a close game as I lost (just) to them both times during league games this season.

    Decided to bench one of my young wingers for my older, more experianced, less skilled winger who is in admirable form. I played him in the semi out of position to rest my star centre and he got player of the day. I reckon he has earnt his spot :)

    Good luck to everyone with a final today!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,406 ✭✭✭Phonehead


    Won an epic against Johnnysmack (why are our games such try fests?) I think I have a much better chance than I should have in todays final! while Satanta has much higher CSR his players are all weary & fit while mine are pumped - could have a surprise result here:eek:

    Cool, hmmm do normal or not... hmmmm how much do I want to give this Yank a ran for on Monday is the question....

    And sorry i doubted you old boy!:D

    Good luck to everyone today...give 'em hell!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,687 ✭✭✭tHE vAGGABOND


    So we have final against the team who run away with our league, and its raining, so rolling the dice with some tactic and player changes!

    Rested a couple of good players who's energy was in the toilet [weary] and took a wee risk with the people I put in, time to roll the dice I guess :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 890 ✭✭✭Oisinjm


    Really pissed off. WNWIM'd last night so I could LTNT today and get 3rd place prize money. Couldn't get on this morning so I couldn't sort my tactics. Ragin


  • Registered Users Posts: 489 ✭✭satory


    ouch...

    F*** that man. Thats happened to me before and it sucks ass. Heres hoping things still work out for you.


  • Registered Users Posts: 171 ✭✭Wylie Luke


    Oh man I'd be so cross, I think I changed 10 things this morning outta nerves, then changed them all back again cos I've no balls!

    Best of luck everyone (especially those who've decided to WNWIM!!)

    On the off chance that anyone cares about anyone elses games today here's what I'm up against (I'm on the Left)

    Stupid stats won't paste so here they are

    No happy with my weight in the scrum and his lose forwards are all about 10-15kg heavier than mine but my front row are heavier and my hooker is 18cm shorter than his so here's hoping they'll be going backwards!
    As a Hooker myself I find detting the backline the most challenging aspect of this game, it's also the aspect I spend least time at!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,108 ✭✭✭johnnysmack


    Wylie Luke id say you'll win that match easily enough.

    Prediction: Game over by 60 minute mark.

    Dont let me down now!


  • Registered Users Posts: 171 ✭✭Wylie Luke


    Cheers Johnny, I was very surprised to see the stats line up like that and as I LTNT last night I thought my players would be dead but only 1 Sprightly and quite a fre pumped so I'm happy enough! I'll be happy with second though and take another year to build and grow facilities etc, not sure what the competition in Div IV is like!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,108 ✭✭✭johnnysmack


    Your players energy is still good because all players get an energy boost during the play-offs because of the 'adrenaline' rush of playing them.

    Dont worry about division 4, you'll be well able to survive up there. And when you think about the extra cash from sponsors you get for moving up a division its worth it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 387 ✭✭JohnButler


    And were off!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 489 ✭✭satory


    7-0, Get in there!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 171 ✭✭Wylie Luke


    oh yeah, 7 0, back of the net..... in off the red.... and anything else mr Partridge has to offer!


  • Registered Users Posts: 171 ✭✭Wylie Luke


    12-0 but my kicker''s just come off :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,687 ✭✭✭tHE vAGGABOND


    13-0 down after 17 minutes..

    Game over tbh :)
