That's The Way I Like It Baby I Don't Want to Live Forever

So the last round of BPL Season 1 2010 went off with some battlin' last night. Our BPL correspondent Super-Wettie will no doubt get the scores up and line up the Finals info once Super-LD Stu gets in to the bunker.

While there's still two weeks of Finals to go, some folks are thinking about next season - specifically, who they might play for. We here in the stately Brisbane Ultimate blog mansion are predicting a bit more of a shakeup than usual (the usualy being almost no shakeup). The signs are all there.

The UQ HQ announced last night that Lovers and Passion would be merging to form one team next season (Plovers? Lashion?) and this may lead a few players to look elsewhere (didn't the two teams form in the first place because half the gang couldn't stand playing with Gref any longer (just kidding Gref)? Nah, it seems the real trigger was the impending departure of the Master Natman overseas, and, after four seasons with the Lovers, Buzz Burwell's confirmed of a lucrative transfer deal back to the Buggers (but who's leaving to make space for him?)

Elsewhere, the Heroes managed an uplifting performance to come within a whisker of rolling the Buggers in their final game for the season. This can't hurt the lads in green's recruiting efforts at all - there'll be a few folks wondering if they shouldn't break out of their present rut and get a run with the Incredible Huckmen. Faith an' beggorah! Sadly, it looks like George, Myall and Paul are looking elsewhere ... but where?

Perhaps aL's proposed four week Open drafted hat (BPH or Brisbane Premier Hat?) will also shake people up further. I imagine cult leader Steve "The Leader" Cameron will be discouraging any of the Dojo from playing as he'll be wary of anyone breaking their programming.

More to come.

what about those rumours of you moving to the Gold Coast, JDR???

So you've finally notice that after every Dojo game, Steve gets in his car and heads off to Blisstonia via the Forbidden Barn.

You have to at least offer HOVERBIKES to get people to leave the Dojo, perhaps.

For the record, the fact that Passion has regularly played with only 7 or 8 each week and Lovers dont have a full roster and knowing that we all won't be returning was the biggest contributing factor.

Don't forget the Jmac will be away for most of next season.

George, Myall and Paul might be looking overseas I heard on the rumour mill? And Jangles knee apparently is questionable. Any official word from Heroes?
