A strong squad of 22 are to take on the Norwegian Polarbears. For the Bears, it is the first ever International and due to the young age of footy in Norway, the squad consists of 50% Australians. Expected rain and strong breeze should work in faovour for the Elks, as the Norwegians will have more difficulties to play on their superior skills. A thight match is expected. Karlstad is ready. Come and enjoy! |
