After what feels to me like the longest mid year break between seasons in BPL/MAL/DOG CUP history it is time to get back on the field.
I get the feeling that missing out on the final makes the mid season break feel even longer. All those goals left unachieved, the sense of a missed opportunity. We have been keen to get back on the field and erase some memories for quite a few weeks now.
That being said I love the long break and 2 season format. Its only the second year that we have done it and I think it is another great development in our competition. It increases the significance of each league, and each league title. This coupled with the ever increasing competitiveness and overall playing standard of the league makes for a more exciting and meaningful experience.
Our team made some significant progress during season one after a large turnover of personnel from 2009 to 2010. We had to redesign the way we play, and how we use our players. The exciting thing is that we found a system that can work really well for us and we are pumped to continue to refine our team play.
Some exciting aspects of season 2 for the Moreton Bay Buggers are:
Welcoming 2 new players to our team for this season, Buzz and Oscar.
Welcoming back Chaddy for his 11th Bug season after some time out.
Continuing to build on a solid group of blokes, in what looks like one of the most experienced Bug teams for quite a while.
Playing with Ferg and Trevor who will both be riding high after playing at World events in the last month.
Facing the improved competition in what looks to be another very competitive field.
Some cheeky new uniform action (in the mail as I write).
Finally and primarily the rhythm, the drama, the controversy and intrigue, the passion and enthusiasm, the tension, and the enjoyment of the countries best Open division league.
The Brisbane Premier League. The Moreton Bay Buggers have missed you, and we are back this week.
