[William of Richwood]

Against a Polish team.
First round: Poland (team2) wins by 1-0

[igelkott]

The US team is learning. A lot more attempts to blindside.... more focus on knocking people over. Better awareness..... good job USA!

[William of Richwood]

Second round and the bout to the Polish team.

[Aaron]

Is that pollen in the air? It almost looks like snow.

[William of Richwood]

My guess is that it's some tree that is letting go of its spring flowers and that is what we see.

[Christophe de Frisselle]

Man down.

Might be dandelion fluff.

[William of Richwood]

May be dandelion, can be appletree etc.

Hope the man is ok or at least will be soon.

I think I heard the speaker say something about an earlier bout not beeing finnished and something about USA team 3 coming up again. They may not corelate and I may be misstaken.

[Christophe de Frisselle]

Poland 1 vs. USA 3 to finish last match, I think. Which was a draw then Polish win.

[William of Richwood]

USA against a Polish team.

[Christophe de Frisselle]

Dang, so close.

[William of Richwood]

That makes sence. Good show by USA3.

[Rey]

Yea some guy just kicked to the hip. Need to reread the rules. I see Team USA is not checking people from the back so I guess they are learning

[Rey]

I don't think the Big Heater Shields are the way to go in the future. Seems like they are getting hung on everything and people are using them against the players.

[Aaron]

Eventually I'd like to see an injury count by type, team, etc... I think Team USA is behind in the standings but WAY ahead in the injury rate (as in, the injury rate for Team USA is low).

Yeah, I would be curious about that too. Kinda like to see how many and how serious the injuries are overall as well.

[LeeC]

Can't seem to find the report from Ice, but last I saw we had one double concussion, one broken nose, one break in the foot area, several bloody noses. Wish I could be more specific.

[Hanko Kal]

Why the heck is there a cannon on the field?

[Galvyn Lockhart]

I guess it's the only way to get the Russians to stop. Lol!

[Said ibn-Ali]

Why the heck is there a cannon on the field?

Its a cannon and early firearm demonstration.

The cannon part was actually really kind of cool. They had a pretty high rate of fire. I was counting about 6 rounds a minute. Which is pretty good considering.

[igelkott]

USA v Poland in 21v21 is up now

[Said ibn-Ali]

USA Win!

[Galvyn Lockhart]

WOO-HOOOO!!!!

[Said ibn-Ali]

and round two...

Poland Win!

(figured if I put as much gusto into a USA win, I have to do it for Poland too, they have been one of the more sporting opponents thus far I have seen.)

[Aaron]

USA v Poland in 21v21 is up now

If somebody could youtube that, it would rock!

[igelkott]

US vs Russia now!

[Aaron]

16-0, but at least no injuries to Team USA.

[Aaron]

USA vs. Ukraine, after a two minute rest from fighting the Russians.

[Said ibn-Ali]

Russia wins, with 15 or 16 standing

[Aaron]

A Team USA knight gifted a shield to the Ukranine team...and I noticed gave Team USA more time to recover. Chivarlry AND tactics!! Huzzah!

-Aaron

[Aaron]

That was VERY impressive vs. the Ukraine team, especially after a two minute rest after fighting the Russians.

[Aaron]

Russia vs. Poland.

I predict two backboard injuries, both sides.

-Aaron

[Aaron]

NO injuries? WOW!

[William of Richwood]

The US team captain, Ice, presented a shield to the Russian team before their bout.

[Michael_of_Sternfeld]

I am even more impressed by the fence as it withstood the entire Polish 21 team climbing onto it after their match with Russia.

However, it would be a pain to transport...

[Galvyn Lockhart]

who won Poland vs. Russia?
