I don't know why George has games played at the Hockey Centre - it's not futsal if it's played on turf, its just five-a-side
we're playing the dutch at the moment in the final
their keeper Stockman, is having a blinder - saved a stroke at the end of the first, has kept them in the match
I don't like him

was a pretty entertaining match. good result. second half and subsequent extra time was intense.
stockmann is a beast
We are fielding a team next comp. Want in?*

this, just on his 2 games against Australia would have given him player of the tournament.
Don't particularly like the new own goal rule, think its unnecessary and will cause some injuries in the local leagues just from people belting the ball into the circle hoping for a deflection.
Just have to wait and see I guess.
Womens Hockey is great.
Few of the greats.
Fatima Moreira de Melo
Aussie Anna Flanagan
Ellen Hoog
Casey Eastham
I like the way she has neatly wrapped her hand around the head of that snake...
Go jetties
Women's hockey on ONE.
the game is total garbage at the top level these days bar right at the pointy end.
probably more than 50% of goals from penalty corners and probably pure athleticism than skill on display. (like watching gve's jerks without the goals)
watch the games, most teams are competitive with your strayas etc for 15 minutes, then just get blown off the park due to their lack of fitness compared to the mutant supermen/women the top sides are putting out. too much emphasis on drawing fouls to gain a set piece. snooze fest.
i don't know about you, but i'd prefer to be the best at real sports, not the best at exercising.
Like crossfit?
pretty much everyone playing hockey looks like a crossfit zealot/weirdo
