Meet the Coach - he's here all week

One man, many teams, zero plans. Not actually Clueless by name, more by nature...

Uppercuts round 003 - Play em all, work out the best later

Just because I've just bought myself a soccer team, it doesn't mean I can neglect my baseball crew. Even if I have no idea what I'm actually doing here..



And since I am still working out the bunting, swinging, hitting and spitting side of this sport, for the Urban Uppercuts line up this week I've thrown a few players in that we haven't used yet.

And Manny of course, we couldn't have a team without Manny on board.

But of course. He kicked off this list and provided he doesn't trip over a base and break his clavacal or something, he gets to play. Why? Because I'm Coach Clueless and my word is more often than not law!
Hopefully he gets to play better than he did last week too!



So Irvin gets a shot, Manny gets some more experience and Turner tries to increase the Flex like the Flex squad did last week to net me some more cards.

Oh and I tried to put a training team together, similar to how the Fajita's a playing three games a week now...but no dice. I just don't have enough hitters. Maybe that'll change after this round plays out?

HOW'D WE GO

So the results are in and Captain Manny had a right old corker of a round, showing the Urban Uppercuts exactly how to do things. 
Unfortunately when that lesson was happening, most of the team were off doing something else. Getting a hot dog, wooing fans in the stands, reciting their favourite bible passages or buying rubbish mowers off Gumtree - no idea really. But whatever it is, it wasn't some of their finest work: 

Save for McCarthy (and Munoz at a stretch) the rest fell flat as a pancake. Sigh. There's always next week though..

Final score: 77% - Look, this could be a lot worse really

Plus boss you got another player and he's a tier 3! That's pretty good right?

Er, no. That's the lowest prize you can score sadly. Still, a free player is better than no player so we welcome..



Heaney the Dodger!

Andrew likes his coffee like he likes his cars. Hot, full of sugar and served by people who always read his name incorrectly. 

Wait, what? Anyway, welcome to the Uppercuts AH, you should fit right in!

Bash for the Border - Awards night

Well it was a huge night at Smokey Bob's Ribs and Rotgut - the Flavorless Flavs Supercoach AFL Team, their fans, the coach (me) and support staff all met for a drink, a laugh and to wrap up the year that was with a good old awards ceremony. And after the smoke cleared (and the cops were called for a bit of a brawling incident) we found ourselves with the top ten players of season 2022. Let's congratulate all our big winners shall we and find out the very best of the very best.

Bash for the Border - Round 20 - The last dance

The final game for my AFL Coaching Career in season 2022 was run and won. And while I wait for the phone to ring and sort out a juicy deal with Netflix, let's see how we went one last time..

Twelve Golden Schnitzels for table one

One Crispy Golden Schnitzel leaves, 12 enter. It's the weirdest version of Thunderdome ever but it has given me the chance to become an NFT trading millionaire. Eventually.
