Is that the first time the Samurai have beaten BHN?

No they've won at least twice before, but by much narrower margins. In 2006 by 2 points and in 2007 by 30 points.

It's definitely good to see the international sides having big wins, but we need to be fair to their opposition. I believe Team Africa had plenty of player new to the game as the purpose of the match was to encourage that involvement. And Box Hill North have been good enough to field a team against Japan, but in the past it certainly hasn't been their A grade. So great to see local amateur clubs helping out, but we shouldn't assume it was their best side else they might question whether they should put themselves up for friendlies.

Team Africa had plenty of new players, but still, South Africa looked a lot
stronger than 2005. I'm hopeful of a good standard of footy on Wednesday.

Did anyone see the Peace Team warm up game at Brighton Beach? I didn't
make it down unfortunately, would have been good to see how the Peres team
looks onfield.

I reckon they could surprise a few people if they've recruited guys who were
already fairly athletic.
