Söder hold on to beat Solna (by The O-Train)

In the first match at Friday’s double header at the JCG Söder got back at Solna for the loss before summer. With both teams missing players at the European championship in Dublin the game turned out to be a close battle all the way through.

Söder opened the scoring but Solna fought back in the latter part of the first quarter and were ahead at the first break.

The second quarter opened as badly as the first ended for the Blues but the tide again changed and Söder got back in to the game after being able to keep the pressure in the midfield and scoring a couple. Continue reading

Sweden’s first win, and Natis’ second goal!

The Elks got their first win of the tournament, against Croatia. A 4 goal lead at half time shrunk to a 4 point lead towards the end of the last quarter, but a goal right at the end of the game secured Sweden’s first win. Both “Johansen” and “Caaagh” got a lot of mentions by the commentator. Natis kicked the goal of the day from way out close to the boundary. Kaj to a hit to the knee and had to hop off. The guy’s got sisu so for sure he’ll be back for the next game against Great Britain on Thursday 6 pm (CET).

Dockers host Round 6 double header

What a day for footy! A blue sky, 28 degrees, green grass and a cooling sea breaze sure showed off the best side of Norrtälje for SAFF R6, featuring The Swans vs. Blues and home team Dockers vs. the Axemen. In the first game, the Årsta Swans gave a statement that they will keep their heads high, despite suffering one hardship after the other during this season, and gave a good fight. In the Södermalm Camp, Brissles acted coach of the day, and promoted himself to playing coach in the third quarter after finding his badge on the tactics board. By then the game was all but over with 5 goals from O-train Oscar and 4 by Dylan, and 10 or so behinds from Tanka.  Södermalm was dominating the game from first ball up, and winning comfortably with 124 (18.16) against Årsta 32 (4.8).

Update EC 2013

The Elks fell short by just 6 points against the reigning European and International Cup champions Ireland. A few more straight kicks and they would have won according to Kaj. Natis and Kaj got a lot of game time and in the words of the modest Finn they “spelade ganska så bra”. This of course means they both had a cracker of a game.

Watch the Ireland – Sweden game on youtube, uploaded by AFL Europe (1st half and 2nd half):
