Let's hope that rain holds off today, and all those field owners hold their nerve.
Our tipping continues to be reasonable, despite Poachers forfeiting last week (we'll take that as a win), with 8/10 games, making us 21/30 for the season so far.
Division 2
Disc-iples (3rd) vs What The Huck? (4th) - Annerley 3B
We’ve introduced the current ladder standings to our preview this week (thanks to the excellent work by you know who) mostly to highlight the excitement surrounding this 3rd vs 4th match. These two teams are some of the purest in the Brisbane Ultimate scene. When they think about Ultimate, they mostly think about Monday night, with a little bit of thinking about aL Don on the side. Anyways, should be a good game.
Our tip: The Disc-Iples by 2.
Mellow Yellow (9th) vs Tsunami (5th) – Annerley 5A
Its been a tough start to the season for Mellow Yellow, who have to tear themselves away from Dr and Ms Good’s Facebook updates about the new baby to get down to play at the moment. Tsunami meanwhile got some extra training in during the week, being the only BUML team to enter the Brisbane Indoor Ultimate Championships. So MY will want to watch out for the fast play, but Tsunami will have to remember they can’t hammer the length of the field any more.
Our tip: Tsunami by 2.
Griffith Go-Go's (11th) vs Slipped Discs (8th) – Griffith 2
The Slipped Discs will still be on a high from their win over Mellow Yellow a couple of weeks ago, although the loss to the Disc-Iples did bring them a bit back to earth. The Go-Go’s are still busy integrating their new beginners into the mix, but local oldster JdR still seems to keep chugging. A tough one to call, so we’ll go with the home team. We should mention Casey.
Our tip: Griffith Go-Go’s by 3.
Griffith Oh Yeahs (12th) vs Discheads (2nd) – Griffith 3
This will be a tough one for the Oh Yeahs, after losing their inspirational free-speech advocate James to a dislocated shoulder last week. We’ve still got nothing much to say about the Discheads.
Our tip: Discheads by 8.
QUTies (7th) vs Agent Orange (1st) – Griffith 4
It looks like 1st vs 7th, but in reality this one should be a cracker, as the QUTies have started to show some form. If Danielle is back from her flu, the students could be very virile and vital. Agent Orange meanwhile are sticking to the plan … win every game and try not to let Gav go away for the Finals.
Our tip: Agent Orange by 1.
Plastic Scourgery (6th) vs Chimichangas (10th) - UQ7B
Games that start with Dusty and Peta flipping the disc are always fun and often end in drinking, although maybe not on a Monday night. The Scourgeons won’t have Jack throwing the disc away tonight, as he’s in Italy playing at the World Beach Ultimate Championships.
Our tip: Chimichangas by 2.
Division 1
Bermuda Triangle (8th) vs Poachers (6th) - Annerley 3A
Come on Bermuda!
Our tip: Poachers by 2.
Co-mingled (4th) vs Wuxi Finger Hold (3rd) – Annerley 5B
The other 3rd vs 4th game this week. Its bud verses bud, Spud verses Spud, as K-Dog and Stu line up against each other. Expect some peeling. Reece had a birthday on the weekend apparently, so will be keen to show he’s not over the hill yet.
Our tip: Wuxi by 3.
The Ghost Who Walks (5th) vs Dyspnoeics (1st) – Griffith 1
Andy L needs to remember to get a case of beer out of JdR’s car. Will be closer than most people think.
Our tip: Dyspnoeics by 2.
UQ (2nd) vs Heroes (7th) – UQ 7A
We’re about due for a Heroic revival, but I’m not sure it’ll happen at St Lucia.
Our tip: UQ by 4.

My hearts desire is Rolo.
mmmmmmmm Roliscious!
JdR needs to start tipping Agent Orange by large margins!
Also - will you be parking on the field / in the creek?
Rolo doesn't park. He alights from his limo or helicopter, as suits the occasion.
It appears I need to start tipping AO for closer margins, as they drew QUTies 9-9 last night.
