Hi all,
Sorry for the delay, but the result from Wednesday night’s Div 1 State of Origin match was:
Southern Guns 19 def Northern Potters 13
Going into the match, the Potters held an almost unasailable lead of 28 frames, however this was a match that both teams wanted to win. After a see-sawing first round, the score was tied at 4-4. The Potters then stepped up to the plate to race to a 10-6 lead at the main break.
However, not sure what went wrong from there for the (now) series champions, with the Guns winning the 3rd round 6-2 to tie the match 12 all at the last change, and running away with the match in the last round to win it 7 frames to 1.
Nevertheless, a great series (for the Potters) sees them go out winners with the total frames being Northern Potters 91 defeating Southern Guns 69. Congratulations Tolly and all Potters!
Cheers,
Matt Power
