Second - The biggest wanngers won with biger wangs than the well wanged Dutch (LCF) in the International final. Third - the results... 1 BAF 1 2 LCF 3 UTT 4 Shrub (no TLA?) 5 Night Fever 6 Shark 7 Bears 8 Whiplash 9 BAF 2 PLATE WINNERS 10 FUBAR 11 Red 12 Slipdisc 13 Monkey C 14 Mud Culture SPIRIT WINNERS And now the story, jackanory.... For most the first indoor tourny of the season, and it took some time to change gear from out-door to indoor... ie for indoor ignore the mid field and wang a pin-point(ish) hammer to the glory seaker in the end-zone. The 2 pools went almost to seed except for a surprise victory by BAF over higher seeded UTT to take pool 1 (see, not rigged), and after a hard fought game LCF took pool 2 from top seeds Shrub. As is usually the case when people are warm and dry, the spirit in all games was excellent, and the level and speed of play very entertaining, sorry to Mud for 15-1, but its that ego thing :( Crossovers followed the pools with BAF1, UTT, LCF and Shrub heading for the semis in the Rec Centre. LCF edging out UTT after 3 turnovers in sudden death while BAF1 wanged their way to a close victory over the excellent defending Shrub (nee Mr.Men). Toptastic layout score by John off of a flipper(!) not withstanding. Meanwhile... BAF2 and the rapidly improving FUBAR made it through to the plate final, which turned into a contested match between these neighbouring teams. Big grabs by Luke for FUBAR no match for the poaching skills of Ploddy, G, and Jane on BAF. The final started well for BAF going 3-1 up, the HUGHES -> Merrick wang from shotgun/iso/bodyform 'O' working well, Harrold replied with interest for LCF trading high intensity, zero error, points to 10-8 where an offensive mis-throw gave BAF the turnover and score to go 11-8 then run-on to 15-9 with 10 minutes of the 30 minute clock left. Final score 19-12. Memorable layouts from HUGHES for a score, Sich on most things but best was a dump pass (eeek) from Merrick, and sticky fingered Merrick on a shit pass from Balti (OK I mentioned it). I made no errors, stayed upright, and was not leaking blood in the showers. Spirit went to the farthest travelling team, Mud Culture, for both on and off pitch antics. Thanks again to FUBAR for the accomodation, and to HUGHES for help in organising and last minute re-scheduling of the event. Thats it, report compiled using MS Hearsay98, any mistakes are intentionaly there to create more email to read at work.
