On Monday night a spirited Discheads outfit took on the might of Bermuda Triangle. We welcomed back a few members for the first time this season, namely Bev, Lisa and Katie (who cheered from the sidelines due to not owning any shoes currently???). The newbies picked up the disc at the point they finished last season and provided good cuts and silky handling skills.Discheads went point for point with Bermuda to 3-3 before we were able to string a few points together to take the score to 6-3. From there it appeared as though we had set up a winning margin. To Bermuda's credit they never gave up and pulled back the score to 9-7 when last possession was called. We had the disc at the time and weren't able to create a scoring opportunity and that is how the score remained.
Bermuda Triangle, as always, played a great, fast, hard fought match. A few uncharacteristic errors probably let them down a bit. Well done to Discheads who played with great enthusiasm and also ran really hard throughout the game, placing a lot of pressure on the handlers and catchers from Bermuda. Special mention goes to Chris Fox who handled really well, directing the disc around the field, and to Jo who worked tirelessly in the midfield and handled very well when required.
Until next week... Go DISCHEADS!
Yes we love to see one of our teams winning, Heroes failed this week but came close to beating Poachers and of coarse A/Orange had the bye (div 1 team forfeiting, reportedly but un-confirmed they were to scared to play the mighty Orange!?!)
ReplyDeleteNice work Discheads!
ReplyDeleteWushi (div 1) had a number of players overseas, and AO had a number playing in the Super Heroes game at the same time slot. So it was a mutual call off.
I special shout out to me ... YAY. Shucks, you are making me blush.
ReplyDeleteP.S.: Wushi are scred to play no one. :)
