Northern Regionals Tops, Taps and Tips

Well, we've been flat out like lizards under several tonnes of steel drinking a liquid with no discernable surface tension here at the Brisbane Ultimate Blog mansion these last few days. Young Wetnose has been busy building his own internet access system from a box of paperclips, while even younger Will-i-am is probably waking up just now, 150km from civilisation, and wondering what happened during O-Week. And you're truly has been solid with AFDA, QUDA and a bunch of other things that aren't frisbee-related at all (can you believe it?)

So after muggin'ing the Slamtown Flatball Club, we haven't gotten around to looking at the other teams in the lead up to this year's Northern Regionals tournament aka the Ides of March.

The tournament is on at JF O'Grady Park at Fairfield (not at Ashgrove as previously advertised). The move to JF is because it is massively cheaper, and also closer to Bruce's house (and further from Mr Flanagan's). The neighbourhood should be familiar to everyone who plays BUML and BPL. Doors open at 8am Saturday for the Open competition, and 8.30am, Sunday for the ladies.

Anyway, we welcome everyone's tips for the results of the weekend - stick them in the comments section.

In the Open division, there are five large teams - Firestorm O, Firestorm D, Slamtown Flatball Club, Thor of Townsville, and the Brisbane Barbarians - and the possibility that anyone can win?

In the Women's division there are four teams - Sultry Red, Sultry Blue, QUTies and Buff Breaka Bond Girls. This is an outstanding effort from the various ladies involved!

I plan on doing a full predictions ramble over at my blog tomorrow, but I'll tip Firestorm D in the Open, and Buff Breaka Bond Misfits for the upset in the Women.

And what the hell is Cupcake doing playing for Slamtown?
