The 2nd Men are the highest blading crew officially according to my new lovely email from CUCBC.

I stumbled across this on the Catz website while trying to get in touch with a BumpIT winner. These are their official results for the Men's 1st Boat:

Starting position: 1st in M2

Tuesday: Bumped by Magdalene
Thursday: Bumped by Caius II
Friday: Bumped by Wolfson
Saturday: Bumped by a very quick FaT II

Current position: 4th in M2

M1: Down One

M1 had a lot to live up to today after great performances from the other two crews. Unfortunately they were hunted down quite rapidly in the gut by a really fast FaT II boat who were easily the fastest crew in the division and on for blades.

I think Sidney are stretching the definition of "the Gut" somewhat in this. The bump happened quite some distance before 1st post corner.

Maybe our bow hit their strokeman in the gut?

That certainly would've been Zoe's interpretation.

Wow, this opinion poll now has the most members' votes of any members' poll on this website.

I guess everyone really does love the 2nd Men :p.
