look you lot, let someone sensible speak.

The prop are our bogey team, and always have been. Go and review the stats from every game the eden have played for 15 years and then come back and agree with us or stay out of it.

It doesnt matter who is better than who, on our day we can beat anyone as we have proved v all teams except the bloody prop.

I remember when i potted the black to win us a match 4-3 a few years ago and it was the first time we had beaten them for 7 years! We celebrated more after that than beating the hot shots etc which tells the story.

Yes they have been in the past on paper a better team, who practice more but for us (and only the players of the eden will know this for sure) the results against them are always skewed much more than anyones predicted weighted score based on who is the favourite.

How we can so regularly beat the hot shots, "the best of the best" and still lose so regularly to the prop is simply a mystery and therefore they are our BOGEY team.

I wouldnt come on here and tell the eagles that the blood hounds are not your bogey team?

Alex has every win, loss, draw, player stat and any other stat you would like for every ball the eden has ever hit and so the facts are there.

Let that be the end of that.

Oh but you should have seen sweatenhams face when i trebled that yellow against him and then finished him off.... he might be toppled off the top of the rankings soon...

this is a no brainer, in the last 10 years of the winter league I don't think the Prop have been out of the top 3, in the same time span I don't think the Eden have been in the top 3.(I could be wrong) Bogey team is usually used to imply a team who beats you regularly, who shoulden't on current form. I happen to think that the Eden is a very good team it's just on previous results the Prop is rated better. You are now probably thinking so what whats it got to do with you, and do you know what your probably right.

In all fairness Macca, I was standing in direct line with that shot. The pathway for the double was part blocked and the treble was the only shot on. It needed an element of good fortune, but he did play the treble.

I always come away from a match with the Prop thinking we never get a fair share of the run of the balls (maybe because we never win!), and in the opening three frames I felt the same last week. Nobody, will argue the Prop were deserved winners last week, and the scoreline correctly reflected that.

Sir Tony Nuttman, you will have to stand corrected. 2003 - 3rd spot in the Summer league! The year of our epic Knockout Cup final victory over the Hot Shots (have I ever mentioned that before?!).....

Your analysis of the term 'bogey team' is probably spot on if you look at the League Cup semi final last season. Don't think the Prop will argue we were the form side coming into that match, and that was probably our best opportunity for a number of years, but we got taken out.

I've tried to work it out why it happens v the Prop. Only thing I can come up with is their style of play is not all out and out dish. Ego's & Hot Shots play very open games, and we sit back waiting for that opportunity to appear which in turn gets us back in the game. Whereas the Prop don't go all out attack unless its 100% there off the break and they are a bit more methodical. Combine that with the style we play and for some reason it counteracts - we seldom win the tight long drawn out battles against the Prop.

I think any comment was made straight after the game as an immediate reaction to being upset (and quite rightly) that our doubles match v Mills/Charlwood was disturbed. We were 1 each and in control. Next thing its kicking off and even Cliffy will confirm it cost us the match as we both lost our concerntration. I don't think it was a case of 'stirring' anything up mainly a reaction at what happened.

Macca - you must have been standing too far away to see that the double didnt go. It was a treble or nothing, it was the only way to get position on the last yellow. I say you make your own luck. If i has fluked it then i would have apologised, as i did on the other pot that got a slight nick.

As for your other comments i am not really sure what you mean?
