Redbacks are so common we don't even bat an eyelid. Indeed there is even a song about people getting bitten on the backside https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjDAiq2-xeU

There was even a team named after another dangerous animal 'The Drop Bears #4774' at the regional comp.

The regional was fantastic and we all had lots of fun.

Well done to everyone.

What an awesome set of finals, and a great quality stream!
Congrats to 4613 on your wildcard, and congrats to 359, 4253, and 5601 on your victory!

I think 3132 and 359 will have a rematch in 2 weeks, in Hawaii. Should be fun.

Especially if they oppose each other in the playoffs, and race to see who can be the first to grab the two bins on the step in the middle! 610 will be there too with their multi-bin grabber, could be a precursor to the center-bin-battles at Nationals.
