Summary:
In one of the most boring games I have ever had the misfortune of playing in, it was always known who was going to win even after two minutes when the scores were level. CheckMeOut controlled the play all night. NWV started the game with their usual tender playing on the field, leaving a person who would qualify as a "not a goaltender's arsehole" contender.
Constant poor throws gave CheckMeOut the chance to intercept and shoot, luckily for the goalie, in the first 5 minutes most shots were wayward. NWV's cheer squad of retards attempted to cheer NWV whenever they did something mildly good, but it was the defensive play of CheckMeOut which shone in the first half. Two mid-half goals by Ashby and Watson, showed the demise of NWV as the half drew to a close. Another problem was NWV's lack of offence, generating two shots, which were never really scoring attempts anyhow, just bombs from beyond half way.
In the second half, NWV had nothing to lose, but failed to do anything about it. A quick goal by Davis on a terrible stuff up from the goalie began the onslaught. The second half was almost as dreary as the first, in fact whenever I managed to get my mits near the ball I would get it just to try and warm my muscles. Sos got a pretty nice goal from a very nice strike and just as I was ready to pack up shop and go to sleep, Sos pulled off one of the arsiest goals I have ever seen. An around the body, leg up to his shoulders volley which careered into the back of the net, top left corner. A top shot to say the least, and one which may well go on to be legendary.
Hopes of a 5-0 win were dashed when the Sherminator kicked a ball from inside the D into the goal. Of course, senior retardo of the ref didn't see it that way, but in retrospect, he doesn't see a whole lot anyhow. Not even a foreign ball that was on the court for the first half of the second half.
By the time the game had finished NWV had managed to put a holt to the productive shooting of CheckMeOut, and managed to put a few shots on goal themselves. Their greatest chance coming from free kick just on the outskirts of the D. The brick wall called Sos put an end to that threat though.
CheckMeOut had one more late chance for a goal but Wato's cannon shot missed by about, oh, a mile.
All in all, a very good game point wise for CheckMeOut, but if I was the crowd, and for the better part of the game I felt like I was, I would say that it was the worst game... EVAR!
Three Stars:
Third Star: L. Ashby - Though he was off longer than any other player tonight, a very solid running game, providing plenty of opportunities combined with Templer in the first half. Finished with 1 goal.
Second Star: R. Davis - Another solid game in both defence and offence, picking up a goal and breaking down plenty of plays.
First Star: C. Roussos - For the second week in a row, Sos shines in defence, and picks up a pair of goals, one an absolute ripper.
