Bashers Leisure, 2012 Champions

My own memory of the day is a little hazy, however, as I cannot recall anyone appointed as Lumberjack and there are far too many overdue reports already this season, I will upload this brief account of the days play. Fortunately, I have 57 minutes of video of the day to provide a visual record of the day thanks to Garbo's filming efforts!

Pleasure v. Dynamite Devils, August 19 2012

It's taken me a while to post this, as the Pleasure felt the pain of being eliminated from the playoffs on bonus points. In truth though, we only have ourselves to blame after losing our last three games when points from any of them would have seen us through.

Lumberjack: Leisure v Hotdogs August 26th

Before I begin with this 'report' all I'm going to say is one thing: blame Shitshoes! Thus, with that clear, let us examine what went wrong, and what went bloody horribly wrong!

Business vs Hot Dogs

No typhoon so off to Dulwich to play the Hot Dogs. A win guarantees a semi final, a loss means a must win final game.

Leisure Lumberjack from 1 July 2012 vs Pudong DreamTeam

Pre-Bus Camel - two returnees in the shape of Post-Op and Woodstock -- the latter fresh from visiting the Jag's family in Italy, and Post-Op back from the rainy delights of Northern Europe. A fairly uneventful pre-bus camel experience, unlike the Sunday just passed by all accounts!

Pleasure v Devils Digital, July 29, 2012.

It's not pretty when you walk into The Camel Bar and the first thing you see is 10-15 of the most unfit, hung-over, loser-looking cretins you are ever likely to see. But, enough about the Voodoo Soccer Team. To the left of them, gathered around the pool table were God's gift to cricket, women and Shanghai bus drivers, The Bashers Pleasure and Leisure.

LUMBERJACK (Billy’s report)- Pleasure vs Hot Doggies 15th July 2012

Billy's Report!!! A fine day it was and a fantastic day for the Bashers!! From the pumping music provided by DJ Pothole to decisive tactics to even Sinbad disobeying the captain's orders for having a cheeky one, it was all happening on the bus with the leisure boys adding to the entertainment. It was bound to be an eventful day. Yes, the pleasure boys were all set and ready to rumble. Many were greeted to the half-naked Genghis who was sharing his mighty experiences.

SCC Pirates vs Lamma CC

Since I missed most of the actual game in the video, it is necessary to record some of the events of the day. I arrived at 11am as the token 3rd Division player selected - still something of a mystery to me too! The SCC shirt was provided, complete with dashing SCC-red stripes on the sides, and offering an interesting colour combination with the Bashers CC trousers and cap (marginally better than the Korean's flaming orange hat). The Bashers CC were represented by the "Inquisition", "Tank", and myself - plus we provided the scorer and umpire!
