YAY !! we are into the final :happy my team is not full of stars, yet we made to finals and thats the biggest thing :) Few experiments are really worked out very well and thats another addition to the cards :D
 
World Champions beat me fair and square, but I'm still a bit disappointed at the draw. Surely in all normal circumstances 1st would play the winner of 4th vs 5th, and 2nd the winner of 3rd vs 6th. Hedger had a much easier semi-final...

Anyway.. looks like the Braves are out. It was an entertaining season.. thanks Biggy for the fun. See you next season.
 
Whooo!
Yeah baby!
Its an all Sydney final!
Really looking forward to this!

DRAGONS FINALLY UNLEASH AARON BIRD!!!
35309.jpg
Most of us know how tough it is for even a recognized player to find a spot in the playing xi of the North Sydney Dragons who have done well enough to reach the finals of the APL-2 which happens to be their maiden season.Aaron Bird has done exactly that and that too,in the most important game of their lives.

In a move which has raised quite a few eyebrows,NSD coach Stephen Fleming has revealed earlier today that they'll be playing the NSW speed demon Aaron "Flu" Bird instead of the in-form Steve Magoffin who has been a key player for the Dragons.

He was heard quoting the following today in Sydney ahead of the second semi-final:
We all know what Aaron Bird brings to the side apart from his lively pace and the Stallions haven't faced him yet.We're looking to come hard at our opponents and that's one of the reasons why we're playing four of the fastest bowlers in the world in this BIG game.

THE LINE UP

Shane Watson
David Warner
Jesse Ryder
Ross Taylor
Brad Hodge
Kumar Sangakkara
Marcus North
Mitchell Johnson
Aaron Bird
Lasith Malinga
Dirk Nannes

The Stallions it is.. congratulations World Champions on a great season.

I guess there's one more goal - the International series. I'm still vying for the Australian coach, although my hopes of coaching the team are starting to dwindle after we didn't make the grand final.
 
Great game. Congratz Stallions! Feel for bcv, his team fought well in teh later part of the tournament. Anyways he was literally trying to buy the trophy with the transfers he was making. :D
 
:doh Can't believe we lost this:facepalm
Never mind.
Will be back next season stronger.:)

bcvstheworld added 1 Minutes and 55 Seconds later...

Ouch! It hurts man :crying:D
 
I Congratulate World Champions for winning two consecutive titles....
And I invite World Champions, bcvstheworld, Hedger_14, Blake to PC Clash of Titans.
Already, about player clashes, the games for them started and I request WC and Blake to participate actively in that and get rid of the player clashes...
Already, Hedger got his AB into his APL team.
 
Dont worry, I would have cried if i lost in the final and would have said some impolite words about biggy and world champions :laugh


But still great season.
