I've packed my bags and have got some time to kill before I have to leave, so why not post on the team blog?
I had my last exam yesterday, and with that weight off my shoulders, all my attention can be focused on this coming week. Everything else has shifted aside, the worries and stress have made way for excitement and anticipation. I haven't been to an international-level tournament before, but I bloody well am looking forward to this one - I'm sure it won't disappoint.
There'll be thousands of other players from countries I've never thought of even visiting - how cool is that? I've got friends from overseas and interstate coming to play and watch, so I can't wait to catch up with them. But most importantly, I'm looking forward to playing on that world stage - so bad...
All these months of training and lead-up tournaments have finished and it's time to put all that hard work to good use. Bring on the Flippers, bring on Double-Wide and Santa Fe, plus whoever else happens to cross our path. Because all directions lead to Perth, and once there, I'm hoping all the way to the final. YEAH FAKULTI!

the posting options doesn't work here at the hotel internet station, so I'm posting a comment instead.
Just returned from the opening ceremony and game. It was well organised and the tournament site is pretty impressive. All fields are very green and appear soft. The showcase field is surrounded on 2 sides by large hills, allowing great views for the spectators.
Transport and food after only 1 day seem well prepared.
The game between sublime and team fisher price was entertaining. jd and an young japanese bloke seemed to be running the offence for the wa team, while a few furious players (i think) seemed to be generating offence for team fp. the start was close and pretty exciting, with mostly man defence played. a few simple errors throughout the game made the game a bit sloppy in parts, but it looked as though it was a bit gusty. team fp puuled away in the mid section of the game, taking half about 9-5, but the gap remained and sublime pulled it to within 3 in the second half. but no closer. end result 17-11 i think, but a positive outlook for other australian teams.
will try to make further comments tomorrow.
