Dan,

In the first game of the 2001-2002 season, the McMurdo Snow Eagles scored a TRY!!!

In the first game we had no goal posts, so there were no kicks for goal.

Yes Phil, I heard last night on the plane that McMurdo have kicked a goal but never made a TRY?? IS that the correct term??

Dan,

I was coach and captain of the McMurdo Sound Snow Eagles during the 2001-2002 season.

The score of the first match was 3-1, winners the Ice Blacks. Yes, we have scored on the Ice Blacks
