Squad for the Downer Nines

[eloquentEEL]

Hasn't been announced yet, has it?

 

[Obscene Assassin]

Maybe

 

[strider]

Downer? .. you think we arent going to do well?

 

[The Phelan Folly]

Maybe

I heard the same thing.

Now that the Nines are Dickless, Downer are the new sponsors. You can bet your bottom dollar that the word "downer" will feature in the headline when the first season ending injury of the tournament strikes.

Still way too early to think about actual league games with actual people. It is about 40 degrees everywhere on the east coast.

i also predict the headline of the winners will include the phrase "flying high" or "team x gives team y uppercut at downer nines"

I thought Alexander downer was the new sponsor.
Does it ever get to 40 degrees in New Zealand? Hell does it ever get to 30

It's appropriate because they really skimp on the foundations

[hineyrulz]

I like the look of that side.

 

[Craig Johnston]

the kind of tournament that someone like "ferrari" would have been ideal for?

 

[eels_fan]

Only person I'm surprised not to see there is Gutherson

 

[parra-matters]

bit underwhelmed with that squad, may not make it out of the group stage.
But good for some of the young fellas and fringe player to get a chance.
