As we move toward the start of the 2009 season, USFootyNews.com is previewing the Top 10 teams in USFooty as voted in the preseason USFootyNews.com and WorldFootyNews.com poll.

At No. 5 is the Golden Gate Roos. Golden Gate finished the 2008 season ranked 4 with a 1-1 record in the regular season and a record at the Nationals Tourney of 2-1. Golden Gate had an excellent Nationals Tourney, beating Boston and the San Diego Lions for the second time in the year. Their only loss was in the first game to eventual Grand Finalists, the Baltimore Washington Eagles.

The Golden Gate Australian Football League is one of the oldest and most established competitions in the United States. The Golden Gate Roos can be more properly thought of as a representative side of the league. This makes it hard for them to perform well as a unit at Nationals or in the regular season games. That said, they can be a formidable competitor when they have got their game together. The 2009 season includes three games for the Roos, including games against San Diego and Orange County.
