IC08 Live Scores - Round 4 - First Round Finals - Warrnambool

I think that Fredi Romar (# 8 for Finland) is definitely one to watch. He was hobbling from the first match, but puts in time and time again.

Gotta confess... I am back in Singapore now, gearing up for Saturday's Asian AFL Championships, so I didn't see the Finns against Sweden nor their match today.

Ville (# 23) impressed me on Friday with a few minor niggling injuries.

A couple of our tallest players have been out since the start (or at least since halfway through round 1) and I reckon that they most likely have put their hands up to play in these last 2 matches...

... it's the toughness that the Finns show called Sissu (correct that if I am wrong guys)...
... the sort of mental toughness that comes from fighting Germany & Russia simultaneously during WWII and still coming out on top !!!

Go Finland !!!

Good to see China and India making a close game of it and of course the Finns and Peace Team cracking it for a win. Good effort for these teams to make a good showing after such a short time playing the game, well done.

To explain, the problem with getting the scores up for the Warrnambool games
has been a lack of reliable wireless broadband internet access. Works fine in the
city, but as anyone who's lived in the country will tell you, can be hit and miss
out of town.

Something we'll improve on if we're all still doing this in 2012!!

I for 1 hope that you are.I have watched footy International grow from when Ross Smith was in charge back in early 90's. I was hoping that an upset would be on the cards with S.A. over N.G. but to all teams well done.

Finland started today's game with 18 men, of which several were not fit for duty at all, including one who had an injured eye from an incident between games - versions vary but a tree branch in the dark has been mentioned. He took to the field in protective shades (first time I've seen that). I'll say more in the match report, but definitely a gutsy effort to hang on, worthy of a Nordic legend or two.
