Sydney Premier League Futsal with Shane Lions Ned Negus Martin Fitzgerald Caelum Trott Michael D Harvey Daniel Saddleton Hot Tunas Futsal Round 6 Hot Tunas vs The Pants The Tunas arrived at the Alexandria complex buzzing about Ozil’s transfer to Arsenal, Neds recent bucks night action and Shandys new, symmetrical, reverse part haircut. Representing was Shane, Ned, Caelum, Luke, Andrew and Julie Andrews Wucherer. Marty was unavailable and Tids and Harvey were still absent in Spain, no doubt drinking sangria and playing the cajon whilst eating chorizo fritters in a bull ring. Some friendly pre game banter with “The Pants” perhaps gave them the notion that the Tunas were only there for a light hearted kick around, and hence would be easy beats. Wrong. What idiots. The Tunas dominated from the outset, a new pass and move motto opening up holes in the opposition defence while a man marking defensive strategy forced them into many mistimed and misdirected passes. To quote a spectating bogan, the Tunas were playing "heaps sick". They didn’t have it all their own way though, as they had to negate the robust tackling of the Pants and the constant interference of a trigger whistle referee. Caelum was pulled back by a defender when away on goal, but the cries for a penalty went unnoticed because the referee was at the canteen apparently placing his lunch order for the next day. Unfortunately that is not a joke. Finally the goals came, as Caelum, followed soon after by Ned, found the net to put the tunas ahead. They looked set to go to half time with a healthy 2-0 lead, but a lapse in concentration allowed the Pants to score twice in the final minutes, one of which cruelly deflected off nearly every player on the court before trickling through keeper Pomarellis’ loose limbs. 2-2 half time. There was more of the same in the second half, as the Tunas played dazzling team football. Shandy Lyonaisse was at his tricky best and The Pants defenders had to resort to some desperate hacks to end his probing dribbles, earning them several yellow cards. Julie Andrews was rock solid when called upon in goals, putting his shredding guitar stage moves to good use with some epic double knee sliding saves. And of course there was the customary Negus blow up. 4 second half goals to the Tunas blew the Pants off the court, with their only reply being an own goal which deflected in off the dangling boot of one of Pomarellis chopsticks. A late blow, Caelum limping off with a toe injury which may see him out for several weeks. The team will sorely miss his vision, touch and good looks. Final score 6-3 to the Hot Tunas. SOCCER!!!!
