Taking candy from a baby...

Ok the title doesn't really suggest how close the game actually was, it was very tight all the way but I couldn't go past the pun. In fact the game was played with the best spirit and competitiveness too... perhaps it wasn't as cute or as cuddly as this, but it came close...

Baby Chimichangas (hehe)

The scene was set for a somewhat windy Annerlly night and for once heroes decided to turn up early to the game, and Babychimis caught the no players bug. Peta could only count 4 players and was almost insisting on forfiet. Gladly she was able to take our advice and not to such a thing. Eventually their players turned up, right on the cut off time and we had a 'live' game as it were.

The game was very evenly matched and we traded and traded points throughout the entire game, with some breaks and break backs to keep it interesting. Heroes fielded a brand new player by the name of Scott who seemed a little confused in his first outing but by the end scored a point which was really cool for him (In my first BUML game I didnt even touch it!) and I think thats the best positive thing about our team is that we are willing to throw to the best positioned player, regardless of skill or gender.

Props to Brad and James who are both first season players who have improved DRAMATICALLY since their first games. Play of the match for me was when I got the disc in the back 1/3 of the field, called brad long and saw which way he went and hucked it to him to score. Personally its so nice to have someone like Brad who will run down everything. Chimis played with great spirit all game and complimented us on every score we made on them which was lovely. I just hope we showed the same spirit back, otherwise i think we might be losing the beloved mantle of nicest team in the league (Brisbane?!?... Australia???)

Final score 11-10 i believe. Mention must be given on the final point where it was last possession for Baby chimis and they scored their 10th with a great curved forehand to Arrlann who did the nice check of feet in the endzone and caught the disc just outside the field of play - very nice
