Things are getting closer - this time next month the Aussie Horde will be well established in Rio shaking in anticipation for the Mundial!
Is anybody contending the Nova Pesta(?) competition in the weeks prior to the Mundial? Last year I think the Roots team cleaned up there prior to trying their luck in Rio. BENBJJ? Tell us about what is happening this year.
Elvis: how many people from SPMA are heading over? What about the PDB crowd?
2 going from NSMA
From ROOTS Andrew gorton, David Obrien and Phillipa Katonivualiku will defend their titles in the World Cup in Bahia in the beginning of July and Robert Toman from our cronulla Gym will fight as well then they go to fight in the World Championship on the end of July together with Peixe and Paul Hayes in Rio.
GOOD LUCK FOR ALL AUSSIE FIGHTERS and bring some more medals and titles this year again guys !!!
BTW: I agree with Elvis, the Australian level is higher than you guys think and "TRAIN IS TRAIN, GAME IS GAME!" like they use to say in Brasil about the soccer team (5 times World Champion).
Cheers,
Paulo.
