Wow this is a surprise

 

[Evil Homer]

Damn. Hoping for Jamaica to come through now. I wonder if the AMNRL will be kind enough to provide us with a match report.

 

[billy2]

It's a good result.
That's the warmup game.
Jamacia will be a lot harder.

 

[Chicago Saints]

Go Tomahawks!

Local guys doing most of the scoring - good news.

 

[Mullins!!!]

Yeah that score line was a big surprise!

 

[age.s]

Wow. ME coaches the US now?

 

[druzik]

Why is the score line such a big surprise? The USA have a team that is stacked with players from Australia and England and SA have no one.

Its the same thing that's been happening with Itlay and Lebanon agaisnt the Russians and Serbs who are local teams.

Teams with professionals will always flogg the amateurs.

Druzik, were you at the game yesterday? If so, how was the atmosphere?

I wasn't yesterday, unfortunately work has forced me to be here till Tuesday, then I have a week off where I'll be for games 2 and 3 and i'll have a chance to see how things are and have a chat to the Jamaican and SA teams. Also a couple of the USA players I know so I'll see how things are with them in camp.

I have got mixed reports from people that were at the game, some good some bad.
