Score: 8.5

Lewis - Ryan Girdler.......... A Tribute.
Solid team players article.

A personal account of a favourite game and the events leading up to it. Very encouraging article, well written, needing a little polish.

Well done El Garbo for MOM honours. That truly is a great article....... and very deserving. Well done to the City boys........



I have to say to have my article come as close as it did score wise is to me a big acheivement as a rookie, especially when it was an article I was rather unsure of and amongst the company of those that also contributed. Thanks Mystique.....and thanks to Big Mick for my selection!
