1-6 vs Gash Backs [MacRobertson]
DC 1, CB, TW, RH, AW, TK, JH, TH(coach)
MOM CB, DC, TK

Not a great one for the Nannas, not one to remember, and not one that I really do remember…

The opposition had a few skills, though not many and not really enough to outclass the nannas, but they did have a much better sense of team cohesion and the outward appearance of a game plan, which of course is something generally lacking in the nanna camp. On the upside there was some nice passing in the early part of the game, due in no short part to the intensive pre-game drilling in the foyer. The gash backs (what the f**k is a gash back ?) took a psychological advantage with the first goal and some overly robust play “it was 50/50 ref !”, yeah right ! They lacked pace however and the nanna forwards were making inroads by running around and down the flanks DC and CB had a couple of shots palmed away but were void of any real penetration (regardless of chas’ continued and thankless running). Jim was seen to be lacking in commitment on a couple of occasions and was yelled at once by Chas. Tao insisted on standing on the ball before shepherding into untenable situations. everyone was playing pretty shit really, as witnessed by the MOM vote, one of the most evenly spread to date with nannas having trouble deciding who was the least rubbish…

ps [070319] minor oversight, i forgot to mention the crappest moment of the night, DC made a final bruising charge into the area, was clumisly manhandled by the muppet in goals but managed to stay on his feet and and was just about to tap the ball into an open gaol, too late, the ref had already blown his whistle and was poiting at the spot. As Striker™ stepped forward the final siren sounded… high drama, a penalty outside the normal parameters of the game, a chance to save some face, but no !!! the goalie went the wrong way but D’Coq totally cocked it up and shot at his leg, deflection, no goal, dirty c**k s**king mother f**ckers….
