Fines master: John, up standing.
Player, John, gets up and stands in front next to fines master
Fines master: I think you had a good game, you collect the
ball and distributed it
well, overall not too bad.
Another Player: To the fines master with the utmost respect of course of course, I would like to point out that John missed an easy tackle and he was not in his possition when we were trying to score at the end! And that is shocking even for John.. I think he deserves a double fine!
Fines master: Thats in
good order, he shall drink twice.
Fines master hands John his drink.
