FMDT: Tell us your story!

Posted by Warnie on 24/8/10 • Categorised as General

We all have an FMDT story and the preliminary finals weekend probably brought out a few… especially with late withdrawals and some pus scores. Here is a story from one of our mates, Justin.

I have the pinnacle of the DT cruelty story of the year mate. Going into the bombers game (last game with different players), I am 244 points ahead, my opponent had jobe, hille and rockliff, I have Ryder. Of course Paddy withdraws last minute which means I play 1 short.

Final quarter I am holding on by 1 point and guess what?? Hille takes a mark on the final siren!?!?!?!? Paddy and that mark cost me a spot in the gf. You couldn’t plan that script if you tried.. How’s that for a cruel way to end someones season!

Do you have an FMDT story to tell? Hit us up in the comments and vent baby, vent! Trust us, it’ll make you feel better.

Pretty much a community service here at DT TALK!

Jobe Watson getting 2 kicks and 28 handballs. ‘Nuff Said.

Apart from that my season has been golden, undefeated bar one game through the league, and won school league, just.

Oh yeah, and stuffing up my DT at the start, I mean who has Scully and Barlow on the bench? Plus having no trades for about 5 weeks.

this is my supercoach but anyway….
first week of finals had 1 trade left and needed to win. higgins was out had to trade to avoid a donut. mate came to pick me up for footy training… had to make a trade within 5 seconds… chose leon davis, he scored 19 points that week, i won comfortably by 150, davis out next week higgins back in, now goin into the gf with no trades and relying on davis to be back to avoid a donut

    Thanks, CJ. That was really helpful. Wish we could all be that ruthlessly intolerant. Tell your mum I said hi.

Round 18, last home and away game, and if I win I finish 4th of my league. Pretty tight game that got decided by Harbrow’s late withdrawal. I had chosen Nason (scored 31) over Webberley (scored 54) as emergency and ended up losing the game by 4 points. Instead of 4th I finished 7th and then lost in the first week of finals.
How one bad emergency choice can ruin a whole DT season.

Oh and I bought Jack grimes just before round 14. He didn’t even get to finish one game for my team.

Had 2334 in the week off then backed it up with a 2044 in the prelim to lose by 100pts

I had ROK donut due to late withdrawel, I had to use my hard saved trades to cover donuts by Pavlich and Hayes instead of an upgrade, my only forward bench got rested in Fyfe, I had Strijk on the field instead of Hurn who got his first 100 for the year. Gia got a measley 35 and his mate Gilbee got 48. Gaz stunk it up as captain.

FMDT how can you have such a good year to lose in the prelims to a crap team who gets Brown back and fires, Cyril back and fires, has Josh Gibson who fires….

I never used to believe in the dreamteam gods so they decided to smite me

Super close game, opposition had Harvey. Game finished, heraldsun website and fanfooty said harvs got 65 so I had won by a few pts. Then when SC website updated he won by 2 pts and harvey actually had another 15 pts. FMSC I lost 2413 to 2415

This isn’t my own story… I was fortunate enough to make it in to my league GF, although Lenny back this week is very annoying as I was forced to trade him for Montagna last wk, but hey who am I having a whinge about that considering the stories on this post. Til next year suckers bahahahaa!!
Anyway my two mates were facing off in the prelim last week: Legen wait 4 it dary and Pong (wanker) knuckles.
Legen had the Pong covered all weekend til J.Brown brought him back in to the picture with his 140, so much so the annoying little fiend was only 37 points behind Legen in to the last game
It’s down to the last game – Eagles V Roos or should I say it’s Cox V Waters to decide who faces off against TitsonyaFC for the Far Cup Premiership.
Cox is having a blinder (fcuking finally!) and gets the annoying little Pong to within 5 pts in the last qtr, it stayed that way until the last 20 seconds UNTIL, Cox gets a handball receive, dishes a handball, THEN gets it back again for a kick… SIREN!
You’re fcuking kindding me aren’t you?
It’s a draw!! What happens next? Who finished higher on the ladder? The fcuking Pong, the annoying little pungent Pong… I really am looking forward to dispersing the Pong with a Hurricane full of T!ts this weekend.

  Cheers tits, for that commentary, yeah that was a fantastic win, one that i thoroughly enjoyed and if there is one thing more definite in this world it is to annihilate the titsonya FC dream team with the pungent aroma of the mighty PONG KNUCKLE, you cannot escape its powerful and strangling scent.
  
  It will, like it has already done twice this year, come out on top, as always, you cannot extinguish the pong…
  
  Long Live the PONG!!!!

When your looking good in May
And you bring in Robbie Gray
