#battleofthenations

Hard to believe it was eight years ago I had my knee operation. I was super keen on showing off my medieval crutches and copper knee plate. I missed out on the first two years Australia fielded a team due partly to this injury. I then went on to do three years of HMB including two Battle of the Nations after this knee op. #medieval #middleages #wounds #memories #blessed #hmb #botn #battleofthenations #surgeon #history https://www.instagram.com/p/ChwaTHZryHr/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Back in 2015 and 2016 I was privileged to join a bunch of other Australians to represent our country at Battle of the Nations. It was an amazing experience that gave me an insight into some facets of medieval tournaments that I could never had learned or understood anywhere else. In my 20 plus years of medieval combat, it truly was a high point. #medieval #australia #aussie #botn #battleofthenations #teamaustralia #kingofaustralia #goodtimes (at Petřín Hill, Petrin, Prague) https://www.instagram.com/p/CO2Ez-nH0nV/?igshid=kjx0usw2kmye

Here we are, team Austria vs Russia in the 21 vs 21. The plan was all the big dudes front and center to bear the main attack, all the quick dudes were to strike fast for takedowns. Our goal was to not die or look too foolish and take out at least one Russian. I’m not boasting but we succeeded. Russia dropped all 21 of us it not before we reduced their number to 20. Ah, good times...#botn #battleofthenations #teamaustria #teamaustralia #teannewzealand #mercenaries #medieval #tournament #prague (at Petřín Hill, Petrin, Prague) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAFlTJtHvkG/?igshid=5xp7o4ew3qay

A memory from FB popped up and although I may have shared it here at the time, I thought I’d share it anyway. This was from a hit I took from a Danish fighter with a two handed axe at the Battle of the Nations 2016 in Prague. It looks bad but the armour did it’s job and I merely felt someone hit me, letting me know I was being attacked from a blind spot. #medieval #battleofthenations #teamaustralia #teamdenmark #botn #tournament #knights #knightslife #fullcontact https://www.instagram.com/p/B__aJ1HnXlc/?igshid=ijau9fwohv04
