Semi-Final against Queensland Friday 9th

Game 8 and looking forward to a tough assignment against the top team
of the Carnival, Queensland. I'm playing full back or sweeper,
depending on whether you speak Aussie or not.

We haven't lost any of the last five games and we're moderately
confident. Both sides had chances in each half and both sides could
feel that they should have scored.

The game became a story of superb, 'robust' defending and fleeting
opportunities in front of goal. At this point, it should be pointed
that the rules of the tournament meant that Queensland only needed a
draw to progress to the Final. Guess what?

The final result of 0-0 showed that our game had improved greatly
since the first match.

And that's it - tournament over and much to be proud of. A final
'by-the-way' - the colours of our team, Western Australia Country, are
black and gold (handy,eh?) and avid Clydesdale member, Alan Auld, has
had to wear the kit every day!!

We're back in Scotland by the 20th. Over and out.
