Whilst the Druids don't really need defending..... The last time Druids beat UTI was 1996 UK nationals, i.e. last time it REALLY mattered; I seem to remember you had trashed us all season, but the lost the big one! Nationals was really windy that year, so in the game we played against UTI we changed our tac-tics and played huck and zone, it seemed to work as we won. Since then, I doubt UTI have played Druids in a tourney but I could be wrong. BTW The only team to come up with anything really new in the last few years has been Shotgun who either invented/imported their bodyform 'O'. No other team including UTI have "dazzled us with a new and effective style". Andy, Wayne was only making the observation, that other teams overcame the reportedly energy sapping conditions, he wasn't calling you stupid! so you can put your toys back in the pram now!
