I think you will find that the Swarm had 2 relatively comfortable wins over the Admirals during the last week! These have flown under the radar in the south.

Unconfirmed score of CRD 1 STP 0 after 2 periods

Rumour has it that the Devils won 8-4, any other updates?

Unconfirmed final score from Christchurch, Crd 5 bsw 4

It didn’t look the ice was too bad but have seen worse. Crowd was between 50-75.

Good to see that the IBs are only travelling to Melbourne next year for Div 2.

CRD won 4-2 in an even battle that could’ve gone STP’s way if they had capitalised on the opportunitys. Some frantic goal line activity by the Devils prevented a couple of certain goals from being scored.

Shots were apparently reasonably even and a low penalty count.

You should think of your mouthguard as an insurance policy, they might cost a bit to get a good one but a hell of a lot cheaper than going all the pain and effort to pay for new teeth.

I can think of a number of players who have lost teeth or suffered facial injuries while playing .

It would be worth noting that in the current environment with ACC (it is really just an insurance policy that everry wage and salary earner pays for) not covering some injuries and reducing their cover.

I could foresee the day and probably not far away when that they won’t provide any cover because you should have recognised that there is a reasonable risk of injury while playing contact sport. That is you were negligent in your actions and therefore void any cover/benefit when you get injured. Insurance companys are bloody good at getting out of paying for anything that they don’t have to.

Vince, does that mean that you’re attempting to try out and play for the two remaining teams that you haven’t played for??

heard fighting was spoken about again at a recent meeting, any thoughts?
