All the talk here on the Brisbane Ultimate Blog has been about clubs lately. Sorry about that, but I'll just get this last one (about MY) club, out of the way.
Rawhide was one of the new clubs founded this year as part of the expansion of the Brisbane Premier League to six teams. It’s a mix of old fellas who've played a bit together before, and newer dudes standing wide-eyed at the gates of hell that is BPL. We have character our sprouty-green shirts with the bull logo, and our occasional quoting of Blues Brothers dialogue. In our first season, we didn't get a win, despite some close runs. This season, we made the semi's, and came within a whisker of making the final, with Dojo Mojo defeating us in the final point of the game.
We were gutted, but really, it's been a good inaugural year for the Rawhide Club.
To finish off the season, Rawhide spent the last week voting on a few awards, which were presented at the BPL final on Thursday night.
The Rawhide Best and Fairest 2007 was a close race, so congratulations to Mr Jon Good for taking the vote! Also polling high were Joel Smith, Tim Ferguson, Sean Flanagan and Shawn Robb. Good work fellas.
Meanwhile in the Rawhide Player's Player Award, the winner stood out by a mile – well done Mr James "Grannie" Gransaull!
As noted in the BPL Final report, Mr Sam Challis was also recognised as Rawhide's Rookie of the Year!
And finally, special mentions were made of the Club's Inaugural Captain for his all-round awesomeness – Mr Shawn Robb!
Cheers to all our award winners, from the 2007 Rawhide squad: Sam Challis, Roger Church, Dustin Czok, Jason de Rooy, Tim Ferguson, Sean Flanagan, Luke Fletcher, Huddy Fuller, James 'Grannie' Gransaull, Jon Good, Stewart McGlashan, Nate Peterson, Shawn Robb (c), Beth Rougier, Tony Ross, and Joel Smith. HYAAA!
