Hi all
After a round of big wins last week, we saw 3 draws and 3 13-11 results this round. But this didn’t count out the big victories, with the Motley Cues posting a mammoth 19-5 win, along with the Hammerheads and Demons recording 17-7 wins, the Demons bouncing back from a big loss last week. I think someone needs to stop the Hammerheads, DV8s and Tomtones, all of whom are shooting over 70% for the season!
This week also saw the introduction of a new team, the Darcy’s Defenestraters in division 5. While it was too late to get their season off the ground this week, they will be making up matches against the Motley Cues and Neil & Bob later in the season.
Once again, a small housekeeping note. The Maram (the new Venue) at Erindale called me tonight. For those who don’t know, The Maram are due to open in a couple of weeks, but until then are unable to serve drinks or food, obviously. They are being extremely generous in opening the tables for us and have negotiated an arrangement with Liqour Licensing that allows us to provide our own drinks, with a steadfast rule that no money can exchange hands within the premises, as this could be construed as purchasing alcohol. On Monday I called every captain whose team were playing there tonight to inform them of the arrangement, but unfortunately this message was not passed on to most players. This is really disappointing as it is a situation which should have been avoided.
Please guys, venues are the lifeblood of our association, and simple messages like this need to be relayed to avoid any unnecessary confusion. So can I ask the captains of the following teams (who play there next Wednesday) to start calling their players from today, (and I will be calling each captain on Monday again to remind them) the Schroomptons, the Snipers, the Katz, the Filthy Wanderers, the Kickers, the Dubber Ruckies, the Motley Cues and the Deep Pockets. I know it’s a case of if the cap fits, wear it, but you understand. Thanks.
Enough from me, well done to the winners tonight and good luck to all teams next week! Click through for the full results.
