Thanks for this my friend. I would love to see this. If my private jet wasn't in for a service I would be on my way over. :lol: It has the makings of a really good meeting. With due respect to Finland I think it looks like a 3 horse race. The Poles look awfully strong, Sweden a little behind them but with "home" advantage and the Russians look pretty good- and its a shame the Swedish transfer window is closed and Smederna can't nab Kulakow. I'll follow the updates with real interest. All the very best. Alan.

This means that Sweden and Poland have qualified for the final from this semi final.

 

Very impressive scored by Berntzon and Thorssell, Engman's scores are too low when you have in mind

that he has Motala as his hometrack in Swedish Elitserien.

the Aussie miss out due to Sweden using a Joker. hard one to take if your an Aussie.

Seems to be the theme of the day with the Germans also missing out in the big boys comp due to an Italian joker.

 

Hang on its the Germans and Aussies that miss out - it cant be all bad then!! wink

Berntzon looks well worth signing for an EL side next year, has shown up well a couple of times on telly in Sweden.

If he's on a 5 or less Coventry could do a lot worse than replace Howarth who's never available.

Ok, was it a good meeting? IIRC you live in Motala?

 

 

Very good meeting with all four teams showing total commitment.

The tension before the last heat was intense, there was a big sigh of relief around the stadium when Nike Lunna touched the tapes guaranteeing the point Sweden needed to qualify.

 

Between Kumla and Eskilstuna, Motala is a two hour drive but this meeting was worth the travel.
