Cobras - The new strikers

Brisbane has a new team in the Brisbane Premier League - The Cobras. The Cobras are proud to be sponsored by Zone Frisbee Clothing, definately one of the best quality and cheapest Ultimate clothing companies going around.

This blog will endeavour to keep readers up to date with happenings here at the Cobras' swamp, and will even give you copies of manuscripts relating to the slaughter of any passersby that we drag down into our murky depths.

For now, it is time to introduce you to this season's Quiver of Cobras:


Liam 'Wetnose' Gillions: King Cobra that is predominantly trying to bother defenders as a receiver, but will stay behind the disc if feeling lazy.

Tom 'Cupcake' Tulett: Recently from Sydney and, more recently, has realised that he does not like the way of the Kensei and has slithered away from his Sensei and into his new den. Strong handler.

Finn McCarthy-Adams: Recently from Adelaide, Finn is a great versitile player that can play any position on the field. Predominantly receiver though.

Jack Lilwall: One of the Cobras young blood, Jack is growing into his frisbee every single day, although this may be due to the fact that is still going through puberty. Gun receiver.

James Larkin: An old head on a young snake, James will be mainly behind that disc. Don't let that fool you though, his strikes are deadly.

Reece Stewart: Considered by many to be a walk-on to the Australian 2010 Junior Worlds team, Reece will still have to take his share of hazing as a young Cobra. Solid all round player.

Sam Challis: Not only the creator of the Cobras new logo, Sam is coming back after a few seasons out of the league. Was always dedicated at training and games before his break, and Sam will no doubt continue that strong work ethic as one of the Cobra's go to guys.

Michael 'The Vicka' Kanowski: The Vicka has been MIA for a couple of seasons due to study requirements but is keen as mustard to get back into things. Has been in the game for a couple of years, but this has been sparatic as times as mentioned. Micka will be cutting hard all day so do not rest on him.

Dan Young: The biggest man on the Cobra's roster will be a target all day long. Also plays a mean puppy on defence. Coming along in leaps and bounds.

Mike Nolan Jr: A seppo freshly off the plane from the states, don't let his AFDA number fool you. While this is up in the 14000's, Mike will no doubt be one of the strongest members of the Cobra's team with 4 seasons of college Ultimate under his belt. Position undecided at this stage.

Mathew Ryan: The lunchbox is back. After a season looking after his young spawn at home, Mat is back. Having played on Taipans at WUGC08, Mat feels right at home as a Cobra, and well be mongrel on both sides of the disc.

James 'JJ' Jackson: JJ rounds out the Cobra's trio of Juniors and has well advanced skills with a disc. JJ will probably be split 50/50 behind the disc and up field.


Well that is the team for the 2nd season of 2009 for Cobras. Thanks for reading and please come back each week find out how things happening in the BPL as viewed by 4ft Cobras.
