Would never go to the Pines but would be tempted to go to Thebby.

They got kicked out by the Govt. Something to do with more Hockey and the new school!

Are there no extra point or field goal attempts in this league?

Yes both are possible and have occurred it is just that not many Teams have a kicker good enough.

No wonder you guys were terrible at the last nationals. Victoria now has two Divisions and is growing here.

yeah i noticed that in the second game, just in the first game there were no field goals or extra points attempted. You'd think it would be one of the more basic skills of the game for an Aussie to pick up, most of us have been kicking balls around all our lives!

For years there has only been one reliable kicker in all the teams. That was a Chiefs player who actually wasn’t the one on Saturday night who had a couple of shots. It doesn’t seem to be a skill that the teams seem to practice. But I did like a couple of the two point plays in the second game although I am biased. ;)

Assume the Chiefs won the second game? They seemed that much better resourced/professional than the other teams there on Saturday night

Yes the Chiefs 30 odd to Razorbacks 7.
Funny you should say “professional” as they did not play their No 1 QB and gun RB in the first quarter, we suspect for discipline/not attending trainings reasons. They were 7 nil down due to this. Also they were down to a third string line for both Offence and Defence.
The Razorbacks have been very professional in the past but seem to have slipped in recent years.
Were you there to watch the Spartans?
