The Polo Worlds 2009! WHBPC v.1

8min is too short, 12 0r 15 will be better, they are only 28 teams, with 3 courts

48 teams. Divided in two groups, 24 teams playing morning and 24 playing evening. Each team plays 8 games today.

makes union street look like wembley stadium

HA!

Geneva beat RVA (whoever that is?)

richmond, virginia????

Geneva destroyed RVA (whoever that is?)

(fixed)

Richmond Virginia. Supposedly a fairly decent team.

How have the London teams got on? Can't understand all that twitter shit, thought it was going to be a live stream or something

At least they won 3 eh? Oh and there's lots of good play.

Do we think we could get a msg to one of them and ask if they can bring me back a Baby Ruth?

ask Sarah, she will be in contact with Dave

I'll try to remember the baby ruth, if had wanted to write that' on the Internet I would have!! Not pleased to have. a personal text MSG qouted on the Internet without some editing. There are lots of nice people too, but a hell of a lot of aggression and 'scores' wanting to be settled, kind of spoils the vibe when there is fighting. All the same we shall see what tomorrow holds.. Off the court we have met some really lovely friendly folk but the 'world' aspect of the polo is lacking in a 'we are the world' way. X

i just had to watch slamm's video to find out what a baby ruth is. Ali - now that I know its chocolate, I'll definitely be asking Dave to bring us some back. Yeah :)

Hmmm. Richmond is fucking good! Madison brutalized L'Equipe in an over-the-top way. East Van is killing. Ottawa, Seattle (Smile), Seattle (Irv, dave, nano), Milwaukee, Madison are killing. New York and DC and Philly and some others are right on the trial.

Malice is doing okay. Four wins, two losses, one tie. I think we'll make the cut for tomorrow. Oh, Portland with Joker from LA are slaying. There are a lot of super good teams. Very physical, minimal reffing, Some people are pretty pissed off about the (lack of) reffing.

Dans te gualle is doing great. There's this other Midwest (MKE, Madison) team that is really good. It's wide open tomorrow. So many good teams. Hopefully they'll sort out the reffing tomorrow.

It's 4.20am here. Just stating the facts.

go to sleep matt! thanks for the updates, good luck today. hi to dt :)

It's 4.20am here. Just stating the facts.

any reason you were up at 4:20?

Wake 'n' bake time for Dr V.

Dr Chukker was up taken his medicine

illadelph style!

Wake 'n' bake time for Dr V.

Ha!

I'm not surprised that the atmosphere is like that if bikepolo.ca is anything to go by. Its 80% trash talk. Anyway, i'm sure BAD and Malice can hold their own in those physical games. Show 'em hows its done in the UK guys.

via twitter:

Balls deep beats l'equipe to the loosers bracket. Bad polo looses too mark Philly. Top European teams are struggling.

[pictures don't work]

according to twitter, all euro teams are out of the winners bracket :(

although this means Malice are still in it via the losers bracket...

Go faceless emotion!

I'm getting well excited.

What are you getting excited on?
Is there a live feed somewhere?

Oh, my mates team is doing well. I wish that their was still a london team in, of course, but it's nice to see people you know do well.
