Let 2012 begin

The Silver Bullet Peewee Div 5 cheerleaders - on loan to the Stallions 2012/2013

 Stallions rise another grade without winning a thing. How far can we go? Have we hit a ceiling?

Its going to be a big season. As Corey not surprisingly said within seconds of the announcement - Fark, there go rolling subs. Going to put some pressure on selection but especially fitness - thats about 6 stallions a game playing for the entire match. Better start running.

Some highlights from the Div 5 yellow fever forum last season:

'Biggest w**kers in Cap 5? Either Magpies or Stokes Valley' - we will show them.

And a classic - http://www.watersidekaroriafc.org.nz/show-report.asp?ID=358

Of course you can't trust the Magpies, biggest wankers in Div 5 until the Stallions showed up.

New feature - best & funnest predication for the season. Get them in now. End of season we can look back and see who gets closest.

New Arrival

So every new signing brings a few teething problems right? I know that Dan doesn't read this blog, so just want to suggest that we take a few tips from the rumoured disfunction in the Chelsea locker room and just phase him out. Make him sit by himself in the changing room, let the skipper try to hit on his girl, and most importantly ignore him during the game. Analysis from the Chelsea-Blackpool game shows that there were 3 or 4 times when Torres was free in the box, but players did not/refused to pass to him.

This conspiracy theory is also driven by Torres's reaction to this where instead of looking frustrated or upset barely even acknowledged anything - as though he knew he was being phased out and accepted he wasn't getting any love. I'm with the Chelsea players on this, screw the fancy new signings, lets make Dan an outcast from the beginning, lets break his spirit and love for the game, drive away all those spectators he will bring to the game.  Screw Dan and all his game winning skills and abilities - they just ain't stallion-like. F****er

Nah, Welcome Dan - great to have you as a full team member as we embark on the heady rise up the grades. A great signing, excellent way to start the season.

And all power to the Stallions who won the University 5 aside tourney - a good omen, well played.

The twilight team just had a competitive, hard game that had the potential to get a bit nasty. Of course we won easily in the end, but interesting to see the team name on their strip - The Karori Magpies, our 'friendly' opposition in a couple of weeks. Bring your shinpads!

Time to fire this bad boy back up!

And what better way than with the draw for the new season:

CAPITAL 7:
Nth Wgtn Varsity __ SV Killer Bees __ Alex Moore 1 (2.30);
Wgtn United Elite __ Uni Stallions __ MacAlister 1 (2.30);
Uni Raiders __ Lower Hutt City __ Nairnville 1 (2.30);
Marist Cobras __ University 4th XI __ Miramar 3 (12.30);

Div 7 has had some changes; farewell Magpies and Marist Town, hello old enemies the Raiders, Lower Hutt City, and who the hell are Ngtn Wgtn Varsity? Start off with a grudge match against the Elite.

University 4th XII - what the - um they just avoided relegation and we nearly won the league(ish). Perhaps they should be called 'university players who think they are good enough to play higher but sucked at the trials, and are patted on the head and put in the 4ths to become fodder for the Stallions'.

Bring it.

Well, are you?
