I know what you mean about goalkeeping. We have a great keeper (two in fact, though sadly they won't allow us to play them both at the same time), and both are quite happy to dive around all game. It's not for me - I get enough scrapes and bruises as it is.
30 goals is a great effort is you played back, I’m sure your happy with 30 goals and the title than 45 goals and not winning as a side?

I have a career tally of 1!
We played a team that were pretty bad and the bots told me to play the 2nd half out of goals, I snuck down and poached a goal so I was pretty pleased with myself after that!

We are about to start playing Basketball again as we like to rotate what sports we play every year or so and it's Basketball time again

And you'll always remember that one! Rotating sports sounds fun, though I don't think I could ever give up football. I'm hoping I can go on playing until something vital stops working! I have to admit though, one day I would like to play Dodgeball...

My word, It's one of those things that gets brought up all the time in discussion and laughed about all the time. We have rotated few a number of different sports. Basketball, Indoor Cricket, Indoor Aussie Rules, Indoor Football and we even gave 10 pin bowling a go for a while. we have managed to win titles in everyone of those sports, admittedly some were in lower grades but a title is a title we always say

I'm the same with my Cricket, The Fiancee is always asking when I plan on giving it up and i tell her that as long as i draw breath I'll be putting on the pads every year and having a hit and a bowl. She never enjoys that answer!
