The Season 2 Moreton Bay Buggers

Season 2 of the BPL is still a month and a draft league away from beginning. Despite this fact and due to my high levels of excitement for the coming competition and for the top blokes I get to play with I'm proud to present the 2010, season 2 Moreton Bay Buggers.

There are a few comments I'd like to make about this team.

Firstly a big thank you and best wishes to Spinner, Didems and Fluxy who are departing from the team after the first season this year. These guys have been excellent contributors to our team and we'll miss them.

Spinner and Dids are both off on overseas missions. Spinner to have a holiday adventure and Dids to make a difference in East Timor with some army work - classic hey?
Spinner played 6 seasons with the Bugs and won 3 championships.
Didems played 3 seasons with the Bugs and won 2 championships.
Fluxy is taking a season off and firing up the continued DIV2 dominance of Mellow Yellow.
Fluxy played 2 seasons with the Bugs and won a championship.
Thanks for your efforts boys.

There are 4 additions to the team for next season.

After 2 season away from the BPL Alex 'Chady' Chadwick is back on board for his 11th season in Buggers colours.
As is customary we have at least 1 BPL rookie on the list. Nathan will hopefully be fired up for the big time after a season out at the UQ social league, and a quick crash course in open ultimate in the draft league. I'm sure he'll be a great addition as he treads the well worn path of a first season BPL player on our team. He is roughly the 33rd BPL rookie to start their top level fris with the Buggers.
New to the country but not the art of Frisbee Oscar Hernandez joins the Buggers and brings our Colombian content to 2. Oscar seems to be a fast moving handler - a new concept for Moreton Bay Buggers teams. It will be interesting to see how he fits in to the team.
After years in the wilderness generously bringing his frisbee wisdom to the savages of the BPL Chris 'Buzz' Burwell returns to civilisation on the Buggers team.

The new team looks nicely balanced with a mix of old and young, cutting and throwing, new to the group and well worn bugs. I'm confident that this Moreton Bay Buggers team will be a force to be reconed with in season 2 of the BPL.

I'm eagerly anticipating the announcements of the other teams in the competition as there is often room to move in the off season and 2010 should be no different.
