Were Kotara at full strength? They put up a damn good fight against Wallsend through the week - if they have players to add to that, it should be another great hit-out this wekeend.

What a joke,
Watched Magic 23's (3 first team regulars) vs phoenix (full strength 1st grade)
I wished i never wasted my time going to blacksmiths to watch crap like what i saw lastnight..
big credit to Pheonix for taking this comp seriously and having a go.
MAGIC either your to big for the sport, or you truly believed that your 23,s would do the job for ya. WRONG
The poor kids looked lost out there last night...
WHY enter the comp,
they're actually forced to enter it, unless i'm mistaken.Quote:

Magic have a responsibility to the the competition, they should have played their first grade, you can't be high and mighty in one comp and be disrespectful in another, it's only a piss ant midweek game, your players are not that precious surelyQuote:

I've tried to stay out of your rants but enough is enough. Why should Magic take the cup serious when the Fed don't? Why risk your first graders when your in the box seat to win the premiership? If you ask me it's a huge risk for a huge club like Magic who have something to loose and nothing to gain out of it but on the other hand clubs like VPFC, Lakes and Southy who are looking at a nothing season have to play their main squad as it's the only chance to win silverware.Quote:
