Not making any predictions, but if Goldies were to make it to the quarters I can't promise that I won't be dancing in the streets of Port Talbot.Londiniushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07871325359167581176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5401280171563686515.post-8945012352021361392018-11-03T05:31:45.257-07:002018-11-03T05:31:45.257-07:00Congrats on your BoM win!

My gut feeling? Probably unwise to bet against Dani Cugini and her Emma team..Aethelstanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00941291511056658074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5401280171563686515.post-33756950090631346122018-11-03T03:47:48.892-07:002018-11-03T03:47:48.892-07:00Yeah, he said 'Mondian' instead of 'Mo...Yeah, he said 'Mondian' instead of 'Mondrian'; somewhat lenient allowance, but thankfully it didn't impact the final score.<br /><br />Decent enough match to end the first round; decided on the buzzer, with Ms Pasternack answering as many starters herself as East Anglia managed between them. The sides were pretty much even on the bonuses, Keble 15/33 and East Anglia 10/21.<br /><br />So, now we head into the play-offs. We don't know the draw for sure, but Emmanuel vs King's and Hertford vs Exeter seems the most likely. Both close to call matches, lets hope they're good ones.Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06254840979557920582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5401280171563686515.post-2273592838438258042018-11-02T17:18:26.071-07:002018-11-02T17:18:26.071-07:00I think the correction was because he pronounced i...I think the correction was because he pronounced it "Mondian".Andrew B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12054400570279868608noreply@blogger.com
