Day 1:

The first day boasted the toughest match-ups for our pool and harshly ended with zero wins from three games. The closest game came during our first with a narrow 12 - 13 loss to the 4th seeded Black Sheep, a weaker team than last year. VICE were solid and we finished us off 15 - 8. Black Cockerals were played later in the day when energy levels overall had dropped among the ranks mostly due to our less than 20min lunch break providing either too little time to digest or not enough time to eat. The Black Cockerals were a team of only a handful of guys who were overly cocksure for sure. Unfortunately for them they were not impressive performers as a team and their girls received very little of the disc. Our defense lacked any kick and we lost this one 15 - 10.

Day 2:
Awoke with a game against the second best jerseys at the tournament, WordArt (WA), with their Microsoft Word 97 3D word designs creating a a clever name and uniform. The WA line-up featured former Townsville President Denyer, while our line-up featured a total of four former and one current Townsville President with two of them being WA based currently. Their team's strengths and weaknesses were known. The game played during the first touch of cold, wind, and rain combined for the tournament and the rest of the day featured sporadic elements of each. WordArt was steadily gaining the lead throughout this game. A comeback in the end got us another 5 or so points which helped us unknowingly later in the day. During this comeback Deanna Finn playing in the cup managed to acquire a layout callahan point off a Denyer pass in the endzone! Whoohoo! She was told that it wasn't possible to top that, but that the glory would come to an end when someone else got one. 15 - 11 WordArt
