As previously mentioned, MUD went to Singapore. It was a most awesome time, with many, many stories coming out of it. For now though, a quick wrap. ...

MUD joins the Uni sports tour to Singapore next week. It will be awesome. More and other news inside. ...

It's back on for all ages folks! The line has been rekindled - Murdoch v UWA in the WA Uni Regional Final. It's been a couple of years, but we're back for real. Full story after the jump. ...

2007 was a huge year. The year that made all the struggle worthwhile, that proved the points that needed proving and made the spectre of MUD into a tangible threat. ...

In 2006, we lost a bunch of players. Then, we rebuilt, and in doing so, received a remarkable stroke of luck. ...

Where we left off, some time ago, was that MUD had come 2nd in WA, and thus qualified for Australian University Games for the first time ever. The challenges were not quite over yet... ...

To sum up 2009 - there are signs of promise, but it was otherwise barren. To explain why the fact that Murdoch didn't field a team all year doesn't matter requires a bit more explanation. And yes, for those that are wondering, I've been asked a lot about Murdoch recently... ...

So, where we left off, Ado had just graduated. The remaining member of the committee at the time was, well, me - Hutch. (From now things will move into the first person) In January, I gathered what crew we had - there was 3 of us. Fletcher, Rich and me. Of course it was January, and this really was a rookie mistake - no one at uni is here in January, let alone the kind of people who play Ultimate. Regardless, we arranged between us to run an O-Day stall. ...

2009 saw poor old MUD almost disappear. As someone who is no longer an active playing member of the club (hello social membership!), it was pretty heartbreaking to watch the struggles of a club - from the sideline - whose members were simply leading lives that were far too interesting (hello trips to India, Europe and elsewhere!) to make Ultimate a bullet point on the list of life, let alone a priority. Take it from me though - and as our so-far incomplete history shows - MUD has come back from much worse. Without too much more dilly-dallying, the 2010 calendar! ...
