You are an outstanding troll.
Just realistic enough for people to actually take you seriously. Well done!

Weird to say but an upset win by Team Canada lol! Mad props to Pat for turning this team's fortunes around after many (like me) counted them out for dead!
Brier Champs two years on the trot!

Murdoch failed at wining Scotland this year to a rather no name on the world stage.

Pretty amazing they won the Brier with how poorly Morris played all week. Koe's kicking himself for leaving them, he already had a winner, Morris reaped the benifits. Only right that the 2 previous Brier winners play each other.

Great brier finished left it exciting to the very end and great to see Johnny Mo get his first Brier with this new team. Also a big congrats to Nolan, Carter and Pat for defending their title. Will be interesting to see if they stick together after this year.

Good on John for acknowledging that it was Pat who was the skipper and who won this game for them. Classy!
A great game played by two great teams.

Morris was #4 ranked 3rd for the week. He outshot Muyres in the Page 3v4 and was almost as good as Nichols (78% to 86%) in semi-final game. Do not know his final number for final but his % was pretty good late in the game.
We all should shoot so poorly.

Yes, but we know numbers don't tell the whole story, it's just entertainment really, like if you want to go by the numbers, was he making shots, yes, was he making them as well as he could, no, he left a lot of chances for Fry/Jacobs to do something and Simmons really bailed him out a lot.

Never on his own though. Probably burns even more for Murdoch to have you old third beat you.

What does never on his own mean? There's always four players, no one wins curling " on his own".

What do you think, as a skip. He's also been relatively quite since leaving Murdoch but Murdoch hasn't been great this year which is my original point. Ever since the Olympics his team hasn't been that great.

he left some opportunities tonight but in general he played really well once he dropped down to 3rd

point being he isnt a no one. and talent wise he is probably one of the best curlers scotland has ever produced. he obviously knows the game very well. not only having curled with murdoch but from curling with hammy mcmillan
he hasnt done a lot on tour but he doesnt spiel much either. losing to him is no shame for murdoch

For a guy who barely curls, that's quite good, I wonder how he's able to do so well with not much game practice.

If you want to rank the best Scottish rink this year it has to go to team Brewster, he belongs on your list higher than Murdoch based on this year. It was also Brewster who built Murdoch's current team.
