Helsingborg Saints

Hej alla gamla unga Saints.

Är ni sugen o lira lite Footy igen?

Nu på lördag behöver Copenhagen Giants låna lite spelare för att få ihop 12-a-side (dom är själv 11 stycken). Oavsett antal är dom ett stark lag (5:a i Champions League förra helg).

Matchen börjar kl 12 i Farum mot Odense Lions.

Ny behöver inte öva på er danska eftersom svensken Calle Wrang coachar..

Jag skall döma och åker ca 09:30 -10:00 tiden. Har plats för fyra spelare.

Så häng med, gratis resa och gratis öl efter matchen.

Bra ursäkt att fylla på ölförrådet hemma (egen kostnad).

Skriv här om ni är intresserad eller kontakta mig.

2018 Helsingborg vs Odense

17 September 2017 Helsingborg Saints played it’s last competitive game. Their opponent was Odense Lions with the winner getting a place in the finals. Unfortunately for the Saints they could not get the job done what would have been their final final series.

Nearly a year later on 15 September 2018 Odense sent out a challenge to the Saints to play for the newly created Gammal Dansk Cup (an alcoholic snaps that tastes like liquefied Vegemite).

The Saints with their Gothenburg contingent took up the challenge and despite with only one Saint player Christer Hjelm having played matches for his new club Aalborg this year, the Saints showed no rust and got up quite comfortably.

Final Scores:
Helsingborg 24.9 (153) vs Odense 8.6 (54).

It probably be safe to say if the Saints had got it together in 2018 they would have remained competitive in a very even DAFL season.

Thank you Morten and his Odense for putting up the challenge and hopefully Helsingborg Saints can have some more games next year.

Luckily some phone camera footage surfaced on the game.

Yesterday four Saints still wanted to have a kick of the Footy helped out struggling Aalborg in the Premier League games against the ever strong Farum Cats.

Fred Sajjadi (second from left) has joined Port Malmö this year, but have to wait to make his debut with his Maulers because of train hassle.
Still free agents Max Välemark (second from right) and Andreas Svensson (far right) were among the best in the team yesterday. Old timer Christer “Kryddan” Hjelm(far left)was bought for a case of beer and made his debut for his new club after 25 years in Helsingborg.

Add 2 tired Giants in the mix and you nearly had the upset of the year!

The Roos were up by 5 points at half-time and it was a tight tussle in third before Farum broke away late in the quarter.

It was expected the Cats would now run all over Aalborg. But the Kangaroos dominated the last quarter, and pegged the Cats lead to down 9 points. But easy misses at goals meant the upset won’t going to happen and the Cats late in the quarter again piled on goals to win rather comfortably.

Hopefully more Saints as traveling nomads or finding a new home will want to keep playing in the Premier League and keep the Saints spirit alive in DAFL.

Hi all

Just want to inform everyone that Saints don’t have enough players for their first home game this Saturday.

Because of the rapid decline of player loss and this also resulting in more expenditures than income we regretfully have to pull out of DAFL.

The club is hope to remain active on a local level in the Skåne League and various cups.

Thanks all, it’s been an awesome 25 year’s of Footy and meeting all friends and foes along with the journey. We see what the future holds.

Yesterday Helsingborg won it’s 7th Indoor title at the 9th Annual AFL Sweden Indoor Cup.

The only two years we were not crowned champions was in 2016 when we did not attend and in 2013 where we split to two even teams - Helsingborg Saints and Påarp Kickers (who made the Grand Final).

But yesterday it came down to the last wire. Despite winning all games, it took a super effort in the Grand Final against the very impressive Norrtälje Dockers to steal the game with a goal after the siren by Kim “Principal” Skinner to sn**ch the victory by 4 points.

Maybe it’s time for a regular home and away indoor league season during the cold cold winter months?

Congratulations to the Odense FC on cementing the final spot to the Finals. You guys were so much more determined than us, and you will go far by playing this kind of footy. Good luck in the Finals Lions from all of us of the Saints!

After being in front most of the day, and having a lead of 17 points with about 5 minutes to go.... only to loose it on the final siren with the final kick...

Gutted!

But the boys played extremely well against very classy opponents. (For some reason - Saints vs Barracudas games are very close recent years).

It means we now have to win our last three games of the year, and a little bit of luck to make the Finals.

For those who were wondering where they heard the name Mike Frencham on the Saints team list against the Giants last week?
The answer is the same guy who played for Aalborg in 1994.

Yes after 23 years in-between breaks (a DAFL record), Mike was finally again playing a DAFL match, this time in the Saints colours.

So for the first time we present on video the Rd 12 match between Helsingborg and Aalborg at Brohult IP.

The then 19 year old Mike is playing with the Roos number 18 and kicked 7 goals against us.
The Aalborg newsletter reported:
"And finally the Saints big full-back went down like an old broken Volvo"

Yesterday the Saints got the rarest of wins - a win at the Farum ground. The only other win on this ground was in Rd 14 1996.

It was also the first physical win against the Copenhagen. Giants/FC Demons. The other win coming from a forfeit.

Match result:
http://www.thefootyrecord.net/index.php?content1=match&m=4476&v=2&f=2

The Saints blitzed the game right from the start with the wind and were ahead by 36 points.

They then kept the Giants relatively quiet in the 2-3 goal wind in the second quarter and still had a five goal lead at half-time.

The third quarter the Giants kept the Saints quiet and it looked very similar to the second. But two quick goals near the end by the Giants meant the Saints lead had dwindled down to a mere 16 points.

Despite going against the win, most observers thought the Saints would go on with it.

The first 15 minutes of the last quarter was a stale mate with both teams only able to register behinds.

With around 5 minutes left of the game, spearhead Robin Brenmo kicked the first goal of the quarter taking the Saints lead to 21 points and thought to be the sealer. But Giants immodestly snapped back with a goal. The margin was back to 15 points.

With 1:30 minutes remaining on the clock the Giants kicked another and only 30 seconds later another, which meant the Saints lead was only 3 points with a minute to go. Was the Saints going to loose the game they never looked like loosing?

The Saints steadied and hung on in what seemed the longest agonizing minute for them.

and even more pics of today's game.... Have a good night all!

more pictures of today's game....

Today in the hot steak midday sun, the Saints were visited by the most dangerous and successful side Farum Cats. The Catters had previously disposed their nearest contenders the Copenhagen Giants. So the Saints had to be wary.

The fist half the Cats leaped away and the Saints maybe thoughts were on beach, sun and drinks then the game. To make matters worse the full back enforcer Anton Tellström had to leave for a christening at half-time.

It look liked on the cards that the Saints would loose another game by the ton.

Luckily two Saints from a blast of the past were watching the game - the NWO Outsiders Kim Mårtensson and Robin Barté. They pulled on the boots, pulled on a jumper (with great difficulty). They made immediate impact, with Barté making a physical presence in the back line as well as in the ruck. And Kim Mårtensson the unmovable object pulling down marks with ease and slotting four goals. Kim's effort put the heat off Robin Brenmo's in having to kick all the goals. Brenmo finished up with 7. Not bad for a loosing side by over 10 goals.

Nevertheless, the Saints won the third quarter and the second half they lost on an average of 14 points.

Saints yesterday traveled downtown to neighbouring Malmö, who met a Maulers side hungry for success this year. Helsingborg could not stop them...

Yesterday the Saints finally got back to their winning ways.... well sort of

With Aalborg only finding five of their own players, the game was already Helsingborg's win even before the game started. So with six strong Saints players from Gothenburg already booked their tickets, the Saints thought it be a shame to split them up and leant them to Aalborg to be an Aalborg-Gothenburg combination vs Helsingborg. Not surprisingly this combination proved too strong for the Saints who fought hard all day.

Big thanks for the boys from Gothenburg coming over and big big thanks to Aalborg for making the game possible despite the forfeit.

With the long long sunny summer break upon us (the Saints next game is not until 27th August). Seven Saints and one Terry decided to participate in a game in the Skåne League (SAFL) based in Malmö. There we were divided to play for the GV Rebels or Malmö Red Eyes.

It was a huge turn out and both teams had 15 players each with a mix of men and women playing a fast flowing very competitive match.

Saints new sensation Alex Olsson was voted best player on ground and Christer "Kryddan" Hjelm 2 goals were outdone by Terry kicking a goal.
