ABC Radio Australia Paradise FM100.9 Bali Nines Masters Australian Rules Football Championships

The Bali Geckos commenced their 2007 season by hosting the ABC Radio Australia Paradise FM100.9 Bali Nines Masters Australian Rules Football Championships at the Canggu Club on March 17. In a repeat of last year’s final, the Geckos were outdone by their arch rivals the Jakarta Bintangs in front of a large crowd, going down by 20 points.
The Bintangs went into the final as favourites after showing some great form during the round-robin event, starting off with a 8 goal win over the Singapore Wombats. The Geckos played with a lot of determination and spirit but were unable to match the more experienced Bintangs. Final scores Bintangs 6 5 31 to Geckos 3 3 21.
Other teams to join the event were the Singapore Wombats and the South Coast Buccaneers from Australia.
