Star Segment
It’s that time in the show where we want to share a player, a goal or a game that we thought was outstanding this week and you get to vote!
The Competition is well and truly on now, with both Dave and you, the Fans, being on one win each….Marty, John and Aaron have some work to do!!
Marty
0 wins so far
Liam Morgan – Two EIHL and two Challenge Cup Games with 5 points, a great initial showing and a true grit determined and passionate start mean the young man starting his first pro season gets Marty’s nomination
Dave
1 win so far
Dave takes a DQ this pod as an (un)healthy scratch.
John
0 wins so far
Referee (YES, REFEREE) Dean Smith gets the nod this time around from John, for his hilarious reaction to the SSE’s treatment of Panthers goalie Kevin Carr after a bit of a…..low blow last weekend!
Aaron
0 wins so far
Aaron goes with our friends over at AVFTB Tower this time around with his nomination. The guys do some fantastic work not only in the world of podcasting, but also with their charity work, and with the recent support of the “Donor Night” and the new #BleedTeal100 campaign – to name but a paltry amount of the amazing work the guys do.
The Fans
1 win so far
Aw man…..we’re SHOCKED that there wasn’t a single fan nomination this week….what happened Jo?!
