Hey watchdog, nice post.
I wanted to get over to the tournament but my job wouldn't let me.
What happened to EGF. I expected a stronger performance from them.
well teams go through ups and downs and they werent playing well the last three weeks. i also think they didnt improve as much as they may have wanted to through the year.

Ah, Watchdog, Roseau just got lucky. It was a fluke! A blind squirrel finds a nut every once in a while...

What other team would Roseau need to beat to prove that they ARE the best team???? All is fine in the world now though... cause THEY have the trophy that says "2009 PEEWEE A STATE CHAMPIONS"!!! Way to go Roseau!!!!!
Either that, you live about 20 miles east of Roseau.
