Austrailian Convicts Vs Canadian Northwind

After a rough start to the trip we were flung into our playing strip and unsurprisingly were slow out of the blocks. Due to flight cock ups we had no chance to train prior as a team, plus all of us hadn't played for a couple of months. You could start to see us click during the second quarter.

Parts of the Canadian play was quite impressive. It was good to stand back as a spectator and see what the Canadians can do.

We were worn out by the third quarter and it appeared like the youth and freshness of the Canadian line up would run over the top of us as they came as close as one goal after the margin got out to 8 goals.

Experience won out in the end as late goals saved the day and pushed the margin out to a comfortable distance.

As far as individual statistics, not much to talk about: couple of kicks and a couple of handpasses, not much niggle either.
