rayzor_ 219 Report post Posted July 1, 2017 Well done Reds. You've been the best team all season and deserve to advance. Well played Dons. In the last couple of weeks we've taken the top two teams right to the finish line. To come up $1.20 short, well that's about as close as you can get in this comp. Thanks for turning up every week guys. And thank you P.J for all your hard work. This is the Don, over and out... cheers R Catalano, von Smallhaussen, Gordy55 and 4 others 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS: Great to see the Lions save the tour, next week should be the biggest test match in NZ(outside World Cups) in a long time Yes congrats Armadillos - and thank you to all teams and PJ for another enjoyable comp. As they say - 'may the best team win'! and as for the rugby - I got put in my place big time .... I said something early on about that big Welsh lock Alun Wyn Jones being an antagonistic annoying bstd.

globederby12 1,495 Report post Posted July 1, 2017 We,ve come good at the wrong end of the season. Well done guys and Betty at the last. One more and we are home, well 9th anyway. And a fond farewell to some "characters" in the leaving teams. No doubt if PJ runs another draft pick comp the fun will continue. And Steve I needed to get a lead before the Aussie races because you know them better than me.
