So you're all of the above, eh bigshot? Well why don't you prove it by signing on with Cronulla's Forum Sevens team for the 2004 season.
What is the 7's competition, you might ask? In a nutshell, its an essay writing competition. Players gather into groups of 7+ and each write an essay which is judged on its originality, style, humour and a whole bunch of other things. Its given a score and the scores are added up to get a total for your team. That total is then pitted against the total of your opposing team for that week to determine who brings home the competition points.
The Cronulla 7's team had a very up and down season in 2003. We claimed our first major title - the preseason Donovan Cup - in stunning style, but when the competition left rleague for LU, most of the players didn't follow. The team was held together by Tamazoid, but a lack of dedicated posters meant that the team struggled to fill its numbers for many weeks.
So far, we have a pretty able looking squad signed up for next year, including among others myself, Tamazoid, El Coconuto (co captains), Hulkamanic, Genius Freak, somethingwithjohn, Eskimo Sharkie, a couple of guys who support other clubs and perhaps more people still who I've forgotten to mention (sorry!).
However, it takes a healthy sized squad - upwards of 14 - and a nice rotation policy to ensure we can regain our competitive edge. So if you're interested in playing - ie. writing one essay every two weeks or even less - then post your interest here.
Some incentives - good posts have a chance of getting up on LU's front page, or alternatively, on the Sharks Den if you're interested.
