The South Couch Report : Dallas v Toronto
The Part I Write Before The Match : I have to believe that this is the game where we come back down to reality. I’m not saying that it’s the match where they get hammered into dust, just, you know, lose. It’s more playing the numbers and the odds rather than a pessimism towards Toronto.…
