Spall exhibition match after?

If they do come, they will be focusing on Gemma, though Scott if you fancy pretending to work in the back of every shot, that's fine. ;-)

There's no time or space for that kind of thing. If we finish early there's usually an annihilator or tag team, but we've even run out of time for those at the last few.
These are very long events that take most of the day to play out.

It looks OK but I don't think it is going to be that competitive as it is a bit tall and has many ways of getting imobilised.
Also the spinner doesn't sound very powerful although I haven't actually tried it out against anything yet.

Running 13 robots at an AWS is gonna be a challenge! I think I had 10 last time and it was a bit of a struggle keeping track of them all :P Look forward to seeing them in action :)
