Ponies avec un P majuscule bien mérité !

wish I'd had that bet with JB that they wouldn't make top 3.

Euro teams have been getting good, quick.

Last goal, Filmed by Sarah, scorer's girlfriend, so you can't really see something because of the excitation (9 min golden goal i think) but the drop of the stick. Team working!
YouTube - final goal epiphany 2011

wouah, that was useful ! clem was able to make the "assist" with this stick drop !

the crowd went crazy, it was like a ninja move, without even looking back and throwing the mallet right into Clement's hand. Note that it was in the 10th minute of the longest golden goal I've seen, in a 45 minutes match...

If you listen the video I told him
"MAIS LAISSE PUTAIN".
wich can be traduce by:
"Fuck Let it down"
I was thinking it was a lost of time for him to make that. At the end, it probably make all the timing works fine for last goal. Karma is a thing to think about in polo.

Euro teams have been getting good, quick.

Lots of teams scoring off long accurate shots, rather than dribbling all the way to goal.

Hooks were fantastic - their 5th place doesn't reflect how well they play together. (they only lost one game, the format was unkind to them)

Euro teams have been getting good, quick.

good point, top six teams all from europe..

mallet pickup is awesome

Did you see the Turbo Crowd boost just after the receiption? it looks like the video get speeder.

Ha! Crowd response is awesome!

Thank you Rouen, great tournament, great cous cous. Thanks for your hospitality!

Really interesting format... coming to a tourney near you!

good point, top six teams all from europe..
