Getting that winning feeling

So we've been a bit slack and slow with our posting this week due to the usual busy period that comes in the first weeks of the month finalising the accounts for this high demand, high turnover (pun intended) organisation that is the Cobras.

Last week, however, the Cobras got back into the winners circle with a hard fought win over the UQ Passion, making the record for the season: UQ Club 0, Cobras 2. Take that! And while it finished up 13-11 to the Cobras, it was a tense affair.

The game started out with both teams trading points, and Jules showing up his customary 10 minutes late. Scores were tied at 4-4, before the Cobras struck with deadly accuracy to take half 8-5. Some epicly long points (both a result of good defence and poor offence) eventuated in the 2nd half and the score was Cobras 12-11 when the scores went. It was Passion's 2nd time this season they have been 11-12 down with 1 point to go (previously losing 13-11 to the Buggers in round 2).

The Cobras received the pull and worked it up the field, taking care with every pass. That was until someone let their idiot captain have the disc and, forgetting that he doesn't have any throws, tried to thread it up the line to Messr Truter, only to over throw it and turn the disc over.

The Cheeseburger calmly walked the disc up to the front of the endzone and then, in try UQ laziness style, just threw it two-thirds of the length of the field to ground. No receiver error, no defence block. Thanks for that Jmac!

The game finished with a Mike Nolan All-American-BBQ-coated crossfield hammer to Cupcake in the endzone for the win. Go Cobras!

The game this week is against the undefeated Dojo, who defeated a Mike-Nield-less Buggers 13-11 last week. Should be a good one!
