[This Year?]

lol@dragons round is finally here. Storm 30+
Too bad I'm working while this is on because the thread will miss out on 2 hours of meltown and toys going completely out the cot posts from me.

 

[GongPanther]

Dragons in a steaming boilover by a 18-16 win.

 

[_Johnsy]

Getting reamed two weeks in a row, the boys won't be sitting down all next week.

 

[OzDragon]

[JamesRustle]

I've got a surgery on Friday and will be off with the pixies when this game is on... yes I did have it deliberately scheduled... would have done it last Friday but doctor said I couldn't be on the good shit for 2 games.

 

[Dragon Slayer]
