We tried to get it going but the awards took so long that we had no team to compete by the time that was all over.
It looks as if the Aussies/rest of the world wins by default because we did have the team.

Sorry guys but Max done all the talking but left before the event was scheduled. I just had no way to get it done
So the rest of the world won by default.
