TownsVillains Mixed Nats Team Barbecue!
The TownsVillains Mixed Nats Team is holding a barbecue for your drunk-feasting pleasure! This Friday night at the Uni Club will be our first barbecue. Friday night is "Bludgers" which starts off when people knock off uni and finishes when they all get too drunk and go somewhere else. We will be there from about 8:30pm onwards but feel free to quench your thirst and develop a healthy appetite before then and just head there straight after uni! This will be a great night to finally socialise with that sexy guy from that team that beat you (his name is Simon by the way, and he's been snatching all your people up, so you need to hide your kids, hide your wife, and hide your husband cause he's raping errbody out there!). No but seriously, let's do it.
Come to the back gate. There is an entry fee on this night (there's gonna be some live music) but if you can come to the back gate and accumulate, the manager has agreed to open it up every n0w and then and let ultimate frisbee people in!!! Be sure to reward yourselves for this saving on the entry fee by drinking an extra jug or two.
This Friday night (17th of Sep) at 8ish, Uni Club Bludgers! Be there!

The Barbie!
Oooh, it's exciting, yes we had a barbecue! Lots of people were there and keen to play. As everyone knows already James David, the arrogant new blog poster, got schooled by Hugh Osborn, the hero of The Villains and the person writing this blog post, after James spent the days leading up to the pick-up game trying to trash talk Hugh with his teenager street slang. Alas, Wednesday also marked the day we all expected Katherine, Stine's sister, over from Norway to be gone, but it wasn't to be. Due to some poor brainstorming by the gods of ultimate, taking their wrath out on the northern part of the world with huge clouds of ash to stop any frisbee games there, she's still here and will likely be participating in the Blue Sharks' defeat by the Heavyweights when the Heavyweights get their first win with a touch of Mansauce McCasker next Wednesday.
The game was good with a nice balance of spectators (eg. Tim Roland, who is a chronic spectator, the worst kind, he loves everything about ultimate, the women, the beer, the food, the parties, the women, the atmosphere, except playing ultimate) and players (like Mark Franich, the new poster child of Ultimate in Townsville - goodbye Simon Urquhart you have served us well), as well as player/spectators, the type who like to sneak off for a sausage and beer whenever they get the chance and stay off till they get forced back on (mostly everyone else).
Apparently Deanna Finn, once again dropped a frisbee in the endzone, but it is worth mentioning that she also caught one ie. she finally scored. Who would've thought!?
Matt "3 time Ninja Warrior champion" Finn's favourite game, Ninja Warrior, was participated in after the packing up was done. Jean in her first game of Ninja Warrior, although having some Asian blood in her, was useless at avoiding the dangerous strikes of anyone nearby and lucked out early. Luckily for us again though Jean helped in doing a lot of the cooking for the barbie though, along with Mike "Oranga-Tongs-a" Larson and a few other well-wishers standing around waiting for the food to cook. Thanks to everyone who helped out and to the organisers Mike, Simon and probably the barbecue king Duncan.
I hope everyone enjoyed the food and drinks at the first barbecue as well as the joy of playing and watching the game. See ya next Wednesday.

The New Year 2010!
Welcome to 2010! It is the New Year and it will be a good year for Townsville Ultimate, so Happy New Year!
Only a few weeks ago many of the folk who call Townsville home attended our first holiday game of Ultimate which was a success. It was so great to see everyone attend with such enthusiasm even in the light of hangovers from the Saturday night before, lack of fitness since the end of the season and even unsatiated hunger for the barbie after. It was nice to follow the game with a cosy barbie back at our 2 President's, Si and Mike, before we broke up for Christmas!
Preceeding the game people involved or beginning involvement with the committee attended a quick meeting summarising the look of our next year. It was good to see some new faces particularly Sam, Bobby, and Finny.
The meeting was a success with many new things discussed some of the more exciting ideas being a demo game of Ultimate before a Fury match, possible press release of results into the paper, and my favourite, one that I've personally wanted to see for years but which was suggested by male stripper extraordinare, Bobby, a nude calendar of all our hottest frisbee players delivered with the quote "175 grams is all that stands between me and your wildest dream." The only issue being after we fill the first few months with pictures of Bobby, what to do with the rest of the year. Simon's solution was simple: "Kittens in bowls for the last 6 months". Now I really do hope this next semester brings some female calendar interest for everyone's sake.
Oh and a side note: Pretty girls of the past 5 years of Ultimate if you ever get to read this, you know who you are, don't make me name you (if Hamish ever made advances on you then you may or may not fit this description - sorry Auds you can cough it up). But seriously please send any photos suiting the above description involving a disc and themed or unthemed nudity that we could use in our Girls and Guy of Townsville Ultimate Charity Appeal Calendar to our email address on the sidebar or to my own. They will be greatly appreciated. Anyone who is interested also feel free to drop us a line.
All the best for the New Year,
Hugh

Successful Barbie! Plus Sausages versus BBQ flavoured Satay Sticks and what to call them!
Thursday, last week, saw what I think was the second club fundraising barbecue of the semester at the Uni Club. The Club's opening hours have now returned to the old closing time of 1am meaning a better, drunker, hungrier night for all.
Thanks again to Duncan for organising the barbie and manning the tongs all night. The addition of kebab sticks/satay sticks with BBQ flavour or whatever you want to call them was definitely an improvement on the thoughtlessness of only offering woolies sausages and tapped into the market of the "person who refuses to support the cause because we're only selling sausages". This is a niche which far too often remains untapped leading to an increase in the number of these people about. However, the strange part about it was that people actually complained when the sausages finally disappeared, so we won't be seeing the end of them anytime soon.
The best part of the night was enjoying the company of those who helped out and all our friends stopping by where they could rest their drink/s allowing the double fisters among us to free up a hand and have a chat. So thanks to everyone who came and helped we had a lot of people there making the night fun. I think Jared managed to keep us in business early on by eating 9 sausages and a kebab stick at last report. All our food ran out with pretty girls lining up for Matt Esser's skills at cooking the satay sticks, which is a great way to finish a barbie! The best thing about it for me was that it allowed me to come out and socialise but kept me tied down and away from the booze a little more. So well done to the barbie!
An intervention will be held next time for Dave Dehollander who drank 6 or so red bulls and became quite strange and spoke really really quickly by the end. This may just involve stealing his car keys and getting him drunk.
