Spring Super Draft Comp Round 1 - Sat Aug 17 - entries here

ah … spring is in the air ….. and the 'TooFasts' are coming out to play ! 😊

First up on the chopping-block are Maxi's Mob … rated by pundits on the pre-comp blogs as likely to finish about mid-field come the conclusion of the round-robins in a couple of months' time. Mid-field could be an overly-optimistic assessment, but with Graeme the #1 selector in the entire Winter comp on dollars earned and Maxi the victorious Captain in the Winter comp well maybe Maxi's mob won't be a completely lost cause. Not completely. 😁

On the brighter side of things this Spring version of the 'Toofasts' appears to be on paper the strongest 'Toofast'version yet seen. Howie returning from a winter spell and Geoff returning from a summer/autumn and winter spell ...obviously will be better for the hit-out today but let's face it if you're gonna return fearless but fat then the match-up you'd want to open your new campaign would obviously be against Maxi's Mob, wouldn't it ? Jack, Stevie P and Rob, long-time PJ comp legends signed up by an astute captain as all-and-sundry other miscellaneous captains were bursting to claim them as their own. Yes the 'FarTooFast's have that winning air about them, with today's matchup the exact best place to start. 

Still with me, Rees ?? 😂 ……. 

Predicting that the biggest winner of the day today will be red-hot comp favourites the dubiously named 'Under The Radar' (what a swerve !)  taking on a plucky but overmatched 'La Bodega'. You can lock it in that the red hots will come out on top in that match. We 'FarTooFast's will have to be right on our game when we come up against the red-hots later in the comp, because anything less than a 'FarTooFast' victory then will cause endless drama back in our 'TooFasts' boardroom. 

Thanks very much PJ for this Super Spring comp, best of luck to the glorious 'TooFasts' far too fast in reality; thanks to Maxi's mob for turning up today … your day will come...surely , and to all participants I hope you all have great fun. 

I've alighted on these equine sensations to bring the ole Howie home today :-

  • R5) 5x9                                      Lock It In / Anneofpaisley
  • R6) 1x2         Best Bet              Dubious / Bivouac

Thanks PJ

Don't be fooled by the name 'Just Plodded' …. just like Pete's mob this is another desperate attempt to fly 'under the radar', but this time it's on our side. 😁

One false move by 'Just Plodded''s opposition, and it'll be prime moose on toast. 😊. Or that's the way the script reads anyway.

With him having been away from the action for 12 months our 'TooFast' s biggest worry is that 'Just Plodded' won't fit in the starting gates. Just saying.
