Submitted by USAFL on April 14, 2013 - 12:33am

The Revolution squad that will take on the Canadian Northwind in the 49th Parallel Cup in Edmonton, Alberta, on August 3 has been announced and it is the best squad to be named in his time, according to Head Coach Matt Bishop.

"The selection process was the hardest we have completed since 2009 with interest in the program at an all time high and as a result several recent Revolution players have not been selected in this squad."

AFL Combine Day 1

Submitted by USAFL on August 30, 2012 - 10:32am

The first day of the inaugural AFL USA Combine has been branded a success, with six elite American college athletes breaking Nic Naitanui's standing vertical-leap record.

Held in Los Angeles, the three-day combine is testing 26 college athletes with basketball and NFL football backgrounds. Two will be selected to attend October's NAB AFL Draft Combine at Etihad Stadium. 

Naitanui jumped 78cm at the 2008 NAB AFL Draft Combine as an 18-year-old. The American athletes are older, aged between 23-24, but outdid the West Coast Eagles ruckman. 

Freedom Win at the 49th Parallel Cup

“Wow, what a great day of footy in the U.S. Congrats to the Revos for their great showings in both games and many thanks to Canada for bringing down 4 full squads, they have set the bar very high for the 2013 Parallel Cup in their homeland, bring it on” exclaimed an enthusiastic Coach Leigh Barnes.

For the first time since 2007 the USA Freedom have defeated the Canada Northern Lights! The two teams have only met 3 times prior; their first hit-out in 2007, the 2010 49th Parallel Cup and the 2011 International Cup.

Saturday, August 4 - Dublin, Ohio - The U.S.A. Revolution, the men’s All-Star Australian Football team from the United States, held off a determined Canadian Northwind in a tropical Dublin, Ohio last Saturday. 

The Revolution and Northwind play each other for the 49th Parallel Cup in each of the two years prior to an AFL International Cup year (the next is 2014) in what is becoming a very competitive rivalry.

In 80 degree heat and about 80% humidity, it was almost a clean sweep for the USA at this year's 49th Parallel Cup in Dublin, Ohio. The USA Freedom, USA Revolution and men's development squad all won their games and the women's development squad lost by just 1 goal to the Canadian's.

Farewell! Thank You!

It is time for me to leave my Yeronga family. Sunday was my final game and holding true to the trend Yeronga once again came out victorious. I was given the opportunity to play the entire game in the back line moving from half back pocket to fullback. I was told I had a “blinder” of a game, Aussie talk for amazing. In most of the games during the season I had not seen much action in the backline but the Logan girls came to play and with many of our top players out due to injury the game proved to be decently competitive.
