- description: 18-20th May 2012 -- WIN Sports and Entertainment Centre, Wollongong. It was excitement that the crowd came for and it was excitement they received. In many years and many divisions, the final round is simply about the formalities. However, the events that unfolded yesterday left the stadium full to the last minute. In the team event and after a strong showing all weekend, CrossFit Newcastle who was sitting in 4th place going into the event, saw a chance for a ticket to the Home Depot Center slowly slip away as they struggled to work through the muscle-ups. It was a long weekend, but stronger teams like Schwartz's CrossFit Melbourne and CrossFit Athletic proved why they deserved their ticket. In the men's division Rob Forte showed he is a real contender this season as he heads to Carson, Calif., with a solid 2nd place finish. If Chad Mackay's impressive snatch performance got the crowd cheering earlier in the day, it was the battle between Kara Gordon and Denae Brown that really got the crowd on their feet. In one of the most spectacular turn of events, Brown who was sitting in fourth needed a slight miracle to secure her ticket in July, and she got it. Women's: 1. Kara Gordon 2. Ruth Anderson Horrell 3. Denae Brown Men's: 1. Chad Mackay 2. Rob Forte 3. Brandon Swan For more information on Reebok CrossFit: www.games.crossfit.com/region/australia Or visit: www.reebok.com/en-AU
