Round 11: BF v Homebrand

A strong seven-man Fish outfit took to court 2 for the big clash with league heavyweights, Homebrand, with memories of their one-point victory in Round 4 fresh in their minds.

An otherwise unspectacular match may be described as follows:

• Black Fish gain ascendancy through hard work, solid defence and the offensive exploits of Foreman (D).
• Referee with record-breaking diminutive genitalia and large party-pack of Samboys hovering above each acromion sets new MARS precedent for marshmallow-impersonation, actively discriminating against the upstanding citizens in Black, thereby sending the Fish into a technical foul-riddled tailspin late in the game.
• Scores become level with less than 30 seconds on the clock.
• Fish score on the buzzer to record a stirring 29-27 victory.
• Referee can shove above result up his flabby arse.

The Fish have improved their record to 5-4-1 and are looking to establish themselves firmly in the top four, while taking things one week at a time.
