High Level Ultimate!

While lounging in the jacuzzi this morning on the BUB Mansion's sun deck, I noticed some smoke signals emanating from the Firestorm Camp. After checking it wasn't just the Slamtown lads visiting, I decoded the following message:

Thursday; Fine, Sunny maximum of 26, however, this doesn’t take into
account the Fire and Storm that will be created as a result of the
second high-level exhibition match.
 
As part of Firestorms post season review the club wants to increase
chances Brisbane’s best men have to regularly test each other under
Nationals level pressure. To this end the club is organizing regular
high-level hit outs for some of the best Ultimate players in SEQ.
 
This Thursday, August 16, will see 30+ of the best matchup against
each other in the second of these high-level matches. These teams have
been selected by captains: Liam ‘Wetnose’ Gillions playing in white,
Verses, George ‘Silent’ Salisbury playing in black. For the record
Peter Allen and Geoffrey ‘Greff’ Grundy where the respective first
draft picks.
 
The game will begin at 8pm on the BPL fields, Annerley Junior Football
club, Victoria Terrace, Greenslopes. This event is free for all to
attend, watch and heckle. BYO; however if there is enough of a request
there could be a possibility for some drinks to be available, so get a
crowd down. To RSVP please go to the Facebook event:

George's team has more depth, but they are pretty even with strong handlers on both teams. Can see a good grinding game coming.
