Huge win against the Philadelphia Hawks; 48-44!


Last Saturday was a day for the books! The NC Tigers traveled to Philadelphia to take on the Philadelphia Hawks Australian Football Club! The Tigers brought a small team of only 16 players which allowed for two subs and with veteran players Nick Camilleri and Scott Bradley out of the picture, the NC Tigers still brought home a “W” with a final score of 48-44.
 
Everyone contributed with Andrew Wesche and Stuart Mckenzie making huge stops to secure the back line. New comer Mark Washington dominated one of the mid-field wing positions. Nelson Santos and Austin Doerr each scored three goals and old-timer Albert punched one through as well!
 
The Tigers are pumped-up and hungry to take on the Atlanta Kookaburras Australian Rules Football Club on August 26. Plan accordingly to come out and see the mighty NC Tigers! Details to come.

First Night Metro at Centennial Park

img_0639

NC Tigers host their first night Metro game on a crisp October night. Tigers took the field at 7 PM with great numbers! The black team dominated the first half with newcomers putting in the work. Mike and Pete, who were on the black team, worked the middle without much contest that led to many early goals. After players swapped teams, the white team began to make a comeback, but didn’t have enough to take the lead as they lost 78-42.

After the scrimmage, grill-master Shane cooked some fantastic hot dogs and everyone enjoyed some cold refreshments. Stu brought home a sack full of hot dogs as a snack for later. All in all, it was a great night for footy and thanks to Scott and Red for umpiring!
