Good work, Richard. Thanks for taking the time to say hello the other day at the comp too.
Will this open mat, be a regular thing?
Thanks man! No problemo amigo! It took awhile to hit me who I actually knew coz you see everyone around in every comp but its not frequent enough that you'd actually talk to each other! haha!
As for the open mat, we're gonna start it off next Saturday and depending on the demand and what people think, or rather, how many people show up, we'll see how it goes (I'm REALLY crossing my fingers that a lot of people show up).
I hope you guys can make it! oh yeah and please give my regards to Stef and Arno!
if all goes well i might just be able to make it out, so if anyones willing to give me a whopping, i'll be up for it hopefully.
Richard, so true! :D
I'll be sure to say hello to Stef (damn he's good) and Arno (damn he's got long arms/legs - crazy Germans).

Nice one Richard! It's a really good idea, glad it's finally made it off the ground. I was going to try and organise one when I got back to Oz, but you've saved me the trouble.
Definitely let me know how it goes! :-)
All the best!
Cheers, Maryanne.

bjjschoolgirl:
When're ya coming back? we'll all roll! lookin forward to a bjj nerd session! ohhh yeah! Coz really, if you think about it, the more everyone brainstorms, the more chances we have in beating the non-aussies (see reply to charles). how's it going there anyway? training hard i presume?
Hehe, course I'm training hard! :-)
I should be back in Oz around September- leaving London and going to the States for a month for the Mundials. Then I'm off to Thailand for a couple of months of training.
I love my life... :D
sorry for not making out today guys. I hope there was decent turn out. Hopefully this contiues and i'll be able to make it out sooner or later to get a whooping.
I love your life too Mary Anne! Please give my regards to the Rev if he still remembers me. Never got a chance to drop by to say gday b4 he left.
Kick ass in the Mundials yeah! for Aussieeeeeeee! Just make sure you get back here in time for the about to be uber successful open mat that EVERY1 WILL GO FOR!!!
Don't worry evilsorta, open mat's this saturday (17th of May) not the last one. Cya this Saturday!
lol yeah i prolly should have read that, lucky i didn't show up then lol what can i say, i work shitty hours and i'm always in need of sleep.
Hopefully i get to head out that way this weekend, but i can't make any promises.
Is it ok to grab clothes when we are rolling no-gi? I want to get in some comp practice.
^^^ gold. lol
GracieBoyABS:
Ey man! no problemo amigo! even just bring no gi its all good! you can get the Koral ones from GZ which are pretty tough which should cost about the same as a surf rashie.
In terms of rolling, Saturday 17th of MAY open mat is still on! so EVERYONE...AND I MEAN...EVERYONE IS INVITED! It'll be a really good chance to learn from each other and have a bit of grapplin lovin! gi or no gi, bring one, bring all!
so we're doing it again this sat? There was a about 5 girls from white, purple and brown levels at the last one so hopefully there will be more next time from around melbourne, it would be cool to get a Victorian group up to brisbane for the QLD states.
Its on like donkey konnnggg!
