As for the big awards:
Stallion: Tom, that goal was pure class. Great run, opened the body, left foot past the keeper (and rumours of some pointing going on). And of course honourable mention to Lloyd for that beautiful defence-splitting pass.
Pony: Its the stuff pony legends are made of. Chris, final sub used, runs on after about 25 minutes to right back, one pass, pulls his quad, limps off, stands in the rain for the next 60 minutes. A tough game out, but funny as all hell. Chris, at least you had a lot of time to consider your match report!
Its going to take a while to work out those fantasy points - a caculator required, so I'll get back to you with those soon. Rauru keep an eye on the Raiders FB page - would be good to test the tone of this match report compared to their last one!
Oh yeah, any best goal/worse miss nominations? Tom's goal really, Bakkie's first was class, as for any really bad misses, Bakkie, can you explain what you were doing with that dribble? Any others?

Hard on Rauru / Bakkie / Lloyd but awesome games from those three guys.
Tom's goal and Bakkie's free kick were the 2 best, his miss and mine at the end the 2 worst...
Mate, not hard on me at all. All the donkey work was done at the back and mid. I thought our D was as good as it's ever been. Even when they managed to get in behind us the D managed to chase them down and force them wide. Other than the two goals they didn't have many great chances, mainly being forced to hit from outside the box.
I think the wide midfielders worked well with the wide defenders and supported each other well which enabled the wide defenders into attacking positions. I don't think I've ever seen Joe in that many attacking positions which says a lot of the CBs as well providing good cover.
Not that my vote is worth anything, I'd throw Gerald and Tom into that list of names as well. Tim was solid in attack/mid/D as well! Aaron and I were talking about it after the game and thought that it was one of those games where you could give points to anyone, which is why we thought Nick and Lachlan should get the vote.
And finally, Bakkie's 2nd wasn't a great goal, it was a bad cross! He admitted as much! Still looked awesome!
I decided to hit the target but i never thought it would go in, I called heath far post but as usual he was to slow getting there so i though i would have a go...
