I take it this is a bit of a piss-take but I'll say my piece anyway. I have been playing for a year only and quite frankly I love playing against Shotgun. Getting the better of a good team boosts the ego. Strange Blue this weekend scored 5 points against Shotgun being up 1-0 then 2-1. It is such a great feeling even if you know the other side can't possibly be trying their utmost. Bring on the big guns is what I say :) Dora Strange Blue Whatever does good should be held in honour, and the only shame is in doing harm
