Rain greeted all nations at they arrived for Day 5 of the AFL 2024 Transatlantic Cup in Toronto today. The host nation Canada went into today’s first match against France with a 1-1 record, the French 0-2. A win would mean Canada go to the semi-final, or alternatively a big win might see France through.

In the wet conditions it was Canada who dominated early and had the ball in their forward half for most of the match. The slippery ball made kicking for goal difficult and assisted the spoiling efforts of the Gauloises back six.

Rain bookended Day 4 of the the AFL 2024 Transatlantic Cup and although it made the early game a little slippery early it did not fall during the three great matches today.

The USA and Great Britain played in the opening match of the day.  The tall Bulldogs team looked tall and up to the fight against the Revolution from the opening bounce, and it was the spearhead Walkden who kicked the first goal of the day as they burst out of the middle.  But from then on, he was well held by the US defenders.

North America On day three of the AFL 2024 Transatlantic Cup we saw a truly marquee women's match. The matchup of the Irish Banshees and the Canada Northern Lights team has a history going back to the first women's international cup in 2011 where island defeated Canada in the grand final. In 2014 Canada had their revenge at Punt Road Oval and then 2017 Ireland took the title back again at Marvel Stadium.  Today's match would be their first meeting outside Australia.

 Another beautiful day at Humber College in Toronto as day two of the AFL 2024 Transatlantic Cup kicked off with the first round of the men's competition. The MCG sized Oval was once again in excellent condition for the matches held under overcast skies.

The Irish Warriors took on the debutants from South America and the Colombians arrived at the ground singing with one voice ready to take on one of the best non-Australian footy nations in the World over the past 20 odd years.
