In perfect condtions for footy the Midtown Bombers tore apart a struggling Roswell Rebels on Saturday to make a Premiership for themselves almost a certainty. Midtown certainly have stood up to their 'favorites' tag well this year and their 130 point win on Saturday was all class. Druid Hills will keep them honest though next week and are not done just yet. With a nice win over Decatur who could not match their running game the Highlanders proved that next week the Bombers need not take their foot off the gas. Druid Hills will need to win by roughly 40 points to cause what would be the biggest upset in the five year history of the AARFL. The first official women's game took place also on Saturday and a win went to the Chastain Chicks by just 3 points over the Sandy Springs Sheilas. Great also to see some new recruits also out there playing Aussie Rules for the first time. The women's games will follow up this week with Round 2 with a third game now scheduled for April 14th prior to the Kookas home game v Florida.
