Florence Update after Day 1.5

The big man at Forcesideline has made it to beautiful Florence. Keep up with him.

The Aussie Open u23s (the Goannas) had just a single game on day 1, where they defeated the home team Italy 17-3. Canada, Columbia and Sweden look like the other strong teams in their pool - remember the top four go through to the quarters. As we post however Forcesideline has twittered that the Aussies have lost to Canada 14-12.

The Aussie Women's u23s (the Stringrays) collected some pants and bagels in their two games - deafeating Germany 17-0 and Ireland 17-0. Early results suggest Japan, Canada and Columbia look like likely semi-finalists.

And don't forget the World Junior Ultimate Championships in Germany are less than two weeks away. The Australian u19 Women's team, Southern Terra, are getting on the plane tomorrow. The u19 Open team, Aussie Thunder, are presumably starting to make their way too. Go!
