And the Lord said "Let there be sun for three days straight" and there was Frisbee.

What a terrible last month this has been for Frisbee in South East Queensland. Following Queensland's wettest September on record October has continued the trend of raining out events and causing general depression throughout the population.

First we go back to September 21 where Heroes and Discheads were originally meant to have their showdown for second place which started the tradition of beers and burgers at Archive. Then we experienced rain just about every weekend, making it near impossible to get out on the bike or have a throw. Then we have the cancellation of the South Bank to Southport 100km bike ride which was immediately followed by the second cancellation of Heroes vs DiscHeads, which led to the second episode of beers and burgers at Archive. This night even saw the likes of JdR, and he liked it so much he even mentioned Carl on BUB the next day.

This lack of play caused Heroes to have a down right shocker against Slamtown Flatball Club on Thursday night and the slippery weather contributed to a controversial incident involving an SFC player, a Heroes player, a grand stand and a visible shin bone.

And then there was sunshine (and a shit load of wind), and the sunshine persisted. For it is written that tonight is the night that Heroes take the win over Discheads once and for all. Believe it? Or do you have to be there to see it. I know I will be. Get your tips in for an all-time BUML first on the BUB site.

EDIT: Discheads have a bye tonight. Don't I look like a fool?

On a side note Heroes had our first ever AGM on Saturday - I'm sure more details will be released in another blog post.
