Another team joined DAFL, Århus form
Jutland, came, struggled and stayed (the trips to Århus
have been a great success ever since). This year we were
building the team. We had lots of new players, and managed
to keep most of the old players too. The most noticeable
new player was without a doubt the hyper-active American
Bailey Clark. Like Obelix, the guy surely fell in the pot
as a baby, only this pot was filled with speed. He quickly
earned the nickname "the Tasmanian devil". Bailey
was later awarded "best new player" at the DAFL
Best and Fairest. We finished third in the regular season
and were to play the Cudas in their first Finals appearance
since their Premiership in 1992. The Cudas put up a good
fight, but never had a chance, we won 12 15 (87) - 11 17
(83). In the Preliminary Final, we were to meet the reigning
Premiers Farum. In a game with no equal we drew 13 6 (84)
- 12 12 (84) and the lost in overtime 15 6 (96) - 15 14
(104).
During our Best and Fairest evening it was revealed that
long time club members Stephen McKay and Martin Aynge were
awarded lifetime membership of the club.
