Kotara will be kicking themselves.
Big centre back and right back best for Croatia. #7 and #9 good too.
They took their chance. Fantastic winner. Well in to the best team all year.
But man oh man.....Kotara.
Decent final game. Tigers had their chances. 11 for Kotara had the Karma goods kicking his ass for ribbing the Uni crowd last week with poor finishing today. Reminder, dont be an arrogant **** when youre winning haha.
Croats should handle New FM ok next year. They seem to be building well. Enjoy the cats p*ss tonight or what ever you call that liquid you drink at the powderkeg Club lol.
This years Kotara team was the best ive seen for 20 years. Ive seen top players and good teams but this squad is solid all across. They wouldnt need too many more to tilt at promotion.
Does Kotara actually want to go up?
Not sure about the early games but seemed well below last year for first grade.Quote:

Congratulations to the Croats on doing the double.
Wasn?t their best game but good teams find a way to win.
Kotara had their chances to win it. They will be right up there next season if the squad stays together.
Crowd was decent enough but a lot smaller than last season but due to the clubs involved I think.
On a scale of 1 to Lofty, how salty are you?Quote:

If he wasn?t their MotM it would be a travesty
Bar TV motm was croatia GKQuote:

Also?
Can anyone confirm if Chris Brain is presenting the Croatia keeper with a Gold Logie for best male actor on a football pitch at the ZPL awards night?
Cheers.
Yes good chances no doubt but the keeper made some very good saves.Quote:
