Prelim Final Result!

ACT Cockatoos
Adam Voges [c] 137 (x2) = 274
Marcus Harris 8 = 8
Tom Triffit 13 = 13
James Hopes [vc] = 131
Evan Gulbis 132 = 132
Scott Boland 175 = 175

Tim Paine -7 = 0

So there we are, it's V Possums vs ACT Cockatoos in the inaugural FC Shield Final. Hopefully for the Cockatoos it goes better than their 800 point flogging they got in the OD Cup Final earlier this season.

That round starts on the 15th March, Tuesday. I will try to find time to put up a preview of the final, but don't expect one as uni is well underway now.

Good luck to the two finalists!

So I tried to do a very rough calculation in my head and failed miserably, but as far I know there weren't any major standouts for either side so I think it could be terrifyingly close.

Had Holland been E1 instead of E3 ACT would've won by 3 points.
