Hi All
My fearless GF predictions were a tad off. The bottom feeding Sharks easily accounted for the Dolphins 3-0, and despite a memorable run into the finals the Lionfish were narrow losers 3-2 to the Whales. In the main event the Piranhas took an early lead courtesy of Rooster getting the better of Chew Bakker 3-0, chewy wisely left for another function which left Rooster to crow all night long. Next up were Amberley and Dicky, the old fella was fired up and took an early lead, Amberley then realised just how old Dicky is and took complete control of the match, right up until her netball shoes failed her resulting in a twisted ankle at 14 all in the 5th, Amberley called short game, which is was with Dicky taking the biscuits. Next up was my good self, up against the tool man sporting new shorts for the first time this millennium. Check out http://www.portstephensexaminer.com.au/story/1657142/keen-athletes-wanted/ for evidence of said shorts, at least his hairstyle has not changed. A somewhat clumsy but seesawing battle ensued ultimately won by me, the Gropers were now on top. Game 4 saw the Thompson twins taking the court, Thompson the younger could not contain his old man who won in three. The Gropers took an unassailable lead, hands shakes and pats on the back ensued, until Albert Lavers got out his rule book and dictated that according to Newton’s missing 4th law of thermodynamics the Piranhas were still in the contest. Last match of the night, our very own canteen lady Leanne taking on the undefeated and heavy weight champion of the world John ‘sergio’ Leone. According to Einstein The Gropers required only the single game to take the contest, Leanne did all she could to take that game from the iceman but alas she just failed. Somehow the Piranhas had come back from the dead and in spite of losing the battle 3-2 managed to win the war. I know, I know, you’ll have to ask Archimedes.
A great night was had, a big thanks the Santa Clause better known as Steve for cooking the BBQ, good thing we don’t possess fire alarms. Thanks heaps to Grant for taking on and completely dominating the role of competitions coordinator and to our man in black Mick for keeping the fridge full.
Now on to our club champs, we are doing the gradings this week, if you require any special dispensation a personal donation in the form of cash would suffice, or you can simply pay for my travel expenses. Senator Sam only wanted $1600.00, I can assure you I don’t go that cheap. If you have the time come along tomorrow night and have a hit, and watch your hardworking committee hard at work.
