This game was the highlight of the day's events, as it was a clash of the titans, with the Australian silver medallists from the 2000 Paralympic Games up against the defending world champions from Canada.

The Aussies had only lost to the Americans by a single goal in Sydney, and their team came in to these Games coming off an impressive win at the Chris Handy Cup, which is the annual grudge-match, go-for-broke, hard-core series of battles between the two Oceania powerhouses of Australia and New Zealand. The Kiwis, who are coming off an outstanding year of international success, had defeated the Aussies in 2002 and 2003, and came in to Cairns looking for a threepeat.

In Athens, reporters are scrambling after the coaches and athletes after most games. For comments from both sides of the bench, check out these links on the USA-GER game, the GBR-JAP game where the Japanese voice their discontent on classification and the level of the British team, and some general comments on the mornings games, including some info on who is perceived to be the fastest player in the sport, which seems to vary by tournament these days.

The BEL & NZL players got their quotes in on their crossover game and their next opponents. One of the Kiwis mentioned that the last time they met the Brits, the bulldog fanciers came out on top 2-1. Tomorrow's games will be intense, and we'll see who can execute their game plans, and who rolls away shaking their heads. We're up against the defending Paralympic Gold Medallists, Team USA, and it will be one wild ride involving two inspired teams.

Anything can happen on Any Given Friday... GO CANADA GO!
