Skate of Origin 2: Victoria Roller Derby vs Adelaide Roller Derby

She’s a lady… woah woah woah, she’s Adelady… and she came, smashed and skated, and took home one very sparkly, boot-shaped, Skate of Origin trophy. With both sides fired up enough to burn the track surface, the half time score is even, at 60 points. Further fierce skating in the second half sees another tied score full time, at 122 points. A tiebreaker jam almost stops the hearts of both skaters and supporters… only to end in yet another tied score at 131 points! A second overtime tiebreaker jam finally sees the Adeladies take out the bout, winning by two points with a final score of VRDL 134:136 ADRD.
