I thought everyone had gotten over the UTS hype after EUGs? UTS is going to be a lot stronger than previous years, but we're definitely not in medal contention. My aim for the tournament is to make the quarters, which going from the teams I'm hearing about, is going to be quite a tough ask. Still, aim high right? It's a shame more teams aren't that keen on signing their players up on the afda site. Makes for slightly more guided speculation  |

I posted the Newcastle team up (minus a beginner and a seppo who don't have AFDA numbers yet). Our team is slightly weaker than it was at EUGs due mainly to Dave Jarrott's virility. We hope to improve on last years 8th place where we seeded well into the quarters and then lost our last 3 games.

Hobbit couldn't be convinced to have one more run around at uni games?
A few other unis have posted their teams too. Flinders look like they're definitely losing Alec but other than that look pretty good. Monash minus OSh still looks respectable too. I hear that the Sydney uni team has been announced. Looks like they've dropped their "not selecting calan" policy for 2009

I thought we had Hobbit convinced, especially when they increased the squad size and he wouldn't have been kicking a new person off the team. Maybe he'll change his mind if we tell him Piers is still playing so he won't be the only player old enough to be other players dads...

On paper, Monash are a medal winning team and Flinders aren't, although I guess they haven't listed their full team yet.

Haha I'm sure that'll convince him. They can both sit at the bar at uni games and trade stories about "the good old days" and complain about what's wrong with the youth of today |

I'm sitting on the sideline with an icepack strapped to the leg, Richo comes over and we talk about those damn kids. Shannon trots over between points and the youth bashing continues  |

Let's get this board back where it belongs - frivolous gossip and baseless speculation about where everyone will finish. I've heard that Tiger smells. And that mac's team is going to be made up entirely of one armed robots. Left handed one armed ninja robots... and Tiger... I thought everyone had gotten over the UTS hype after EUGs?
I was just reloading... Hype hype hype! I do *heart* UTS And given that Mac will be actually going this time (me included hopefully) I may have to save some heart for my team trade stories about "the good old days" and complain about what's wrong with the youth of today I do that already... and I'm pretty sure noone playing is young enough to be my child... <expletive deleted>ing kids... getting younger every day |

The University of Victoria, Wellington seems to be sending a team to AUGs. Does anyone know how strong the Kiwi side will be?

no latuf this year... We had some serious problems with our uni charging us 1100 to go for just flights, rego and accomm. So with only 7 people willing to pay it we just couldnt make it!
Super pissed as it could be my last year... Maybe ill fail a subject and come back from one more!
