The Midtown Bombers drew first blood in the Spring 2008 AARFL season with a solid win over the Roswell Rebels last Saturday. With the return of two great Kooka players in Brent Bacon and Paul Cargal, the reigning Premiers were too consistent all over the ground for the inexperienced Roswell team. This Saturday sees Midtown take on the newly formed Clairmont Loungers. Game time is at 10.30am at Dekalb Memorial Park in East Atlanta. Following the game at about 12.15pm the Lady Kookaburras will be training for their goal of remaining undefeated in 2008 like their previous three seasons. All new players for both the AARFL and Lady Kookaburras are welcome down. For more info and last weeks AARFL stats see the AARFL website. |
