Heartland Championship - news

@stargazer geez surprised Knewstubb couldn't/didn't get a gig with 1st division team. He should carve up here.

[Stargazer]

@bones I'm not sure that's the situation. He's only available for part of the season. It seems he wanted to play for Horo-Kap because it's his home province.

[Stargazer]

Well, well, well. Look @Stockcar86 @Nepia @Higgins @Number-10 who's wearing the 4-jersey for East Coast!!

By the way, I noticed there's a Jacob Lowe in the West Coast squad. Coincidence and just someone with the same name, or is that the brother of Karl and Jonah?
