Hahaha expect nothing less!

Although who is the one so very happy that their Greek club bought an Italian player?!?!?

I remeber a certain Italian player who now sports the highly acclaimed raptors yellow jacket

all in all probably a fair result today between Raptors and Para in the A's

Para went into half time 2-0 up after scoring their second with the last kick of the half. we didnt really create much in the first half and i thought if we could go in at half time 1-0 down, the second half could work in our favour seeing as we were going with the wind

second half, we managed to peg back the 2 goals but unable to grab that elusive winner as did Para. we were pretty patchy all day but pleased we were able to at least grab a draw

definately tight down the bottom of the table with the 4 bottom teams seperated by only 3 points.
Huge game this week v San Marco - last 3 games like a final

but the B's and both C teams are still fighting it out for the premiership - all 4 teams have everything to play for

[maxin in the shade]

Raptors 3 def San Marco 1

San Marco were 1-0 up inside the first 60 seconds thanks to some slack marking and a well placed finish

We equalised mid-way through the first half thanks to a penalty after our player was brought down in the box. The half as a whole was fairly even with both sides having possession and creating few chances.

Second half turned out to be a shambles for SM with two players getting sent off (not sure why the captain got his two yellow cards - seemed a bit harsh). SM didnt have many chances and it was always going to be difficult going a man down

We managed to put 2 away but couldve had another 3 if it werent for some slack finishing

B's:
San Marco def Raptors 2-0

Bad loss for the B's as theyre fighting for the championship. Loss was the second v SM this season and makes it really hard for the B's to claim their first championship

Tough game away to West Beach for both sides this week. A's need a win to all but cement their place in Div 2 for next season, while WB will be playing for the championship

Hey maxin, I wont even attempt to try and do your usual round up of last weekend's game, it wouldn't do it justice to your honest and methodical approach. Was good to see that fighting character once again across the entire team.
All the best champ, hope a speedy recovery.

Who got injured?

[De Voyeur]

I just wanted to be the one to post the 1 000th reply to this wonderful topic.

[On Holiday]

We should have a celebratory BBQ for the 1000th post!

[De Voyeur]

Do I win a prize? A free shaslick and a beer?

[Talk Is Cheap]

For around $300 you could purchase 3 points

You guys need us to beat FOB for that to happen! If we didn't get over you a couple weeks back it would be in the bag!

We are pumped up to play FOB, as last time we met they FLOGGED OUR ARSE 15-2!

[LeBron]

Maxi, pretty sure the game is at Brahma Lodge's ground on Sunday.

Also the rest of the boys will be playing tomorrow at Raptor Pk V a Port Lincoln select side. 11am kick off (I think)

The Raptors held their annual presentation night on Saturday and it turned out to be one of the best ones the club has ever had

The commitee did an excellent job in hosting and organising the night with plenty of laughs all round at the various awards given out, and a good time definately had by all who attended

A big congrats to all the respective winners on the night, especially JM who took out the A's B&F - a well deserved winner

[De Voyeur]

Post your winners in the 'Presentation nights" thread.

[maxin in the shade]

Lets hope we got a good turnout like previous years!
