balaklava night

It was beginning to look a lot like Christmas for Darren Scholz’s Lethal Weapons, wearing matching Christmas hats in their match against the absent and injured Andrew Lane’s Bad Boys. But the hats didn’t help the Weapons as they came second in a thriller 4-24 to 2-25. They were unlucky to lose two tiebreakers, with Di Taylor and opponent Tanya Greenshields featuring in both. Di should feel happy that her younger opponent was feeling stiff and sore the next day from her hard workout! Weapons’ Colin Mutton was pitted against Laney’s younger fill-in Derek Friedrichs, and after losing the first two sets, Colin finally won the third with Scholzy which made them happy. Scholzy starred in both of his team’s wins, the other set with old girl Julia Hoskin, who was also made to work hard against the younger Kerry Williams all night. Paul McBride’s Fugitives were diddled by games only at the hands of Scott McDonald’s Die Hards, 3-19 to 3-30. Boo hiss. Scott was on fire early, winning with Leonie McRostie and then a huge dakdropper win with Doug Hoawrd over, dare we say it, Paul and Lisa Redpath. But winning quietly in the background was Fugitives Dustin Guth-

berg, who was racking up the wins, with fill-in opponent Geoff Gardner wishing he’d been playing more regularly. Having said that, their sets were close being a 5-3 and a tiebreaker. Dustin’s tie win was with Tania Allen and she was heard squealing with delight after that as her other two sets were not as close! Pauline Hill’s Top Guns gunned down Marty Brice’s Ghostbusters 4-31 to 2-17. This match also saw a dakdropper win to Guns Adam Pratt and Jordan Taylor, with opponents Gary Wehr and Marty actually seeming far too eager to reveal their briefs! Mmm.... Ghostys Helen Barry and Kathryn Taylor had a great win over Pauline and Joyful Ryan, with Helen and Marty going on to win their set over Jordan and Pauline later. The other three sets were all 6-2s which gave the Guns a good but hard fought win. Division one premiership table: Top Guns 6, Die Hards 5, Lethal Weapons 4, Ghostbusters 3, Fugitives 2, Bad Boys 2, Terminators 1. The Division two Flinstones, led by the only original team member, Alice Parsons, scraped through to defeat Emily Taylor’s Grinches 3-27 to 3-22. Carly Friedrichs made her season debut and was thrown into the deep end against Grinches star Jarek Flight. But Carly and Alice helf their own

and had a great win together over Jarek and Emily. Grinches Fran Henderson and Kevyna Gardner won a long tiebreaker over Michelle Williams and Hannah McArdle, while two other 5-3 sets were played, ending one apiece. Bec Houston’s Nemos were too good for David Northcott’s Shreks winning 5-35 to 1-13. Well done to David and Megan Shepherd on winning the Shreks’ only set, over Keanan Catford and Bridget Guthberg. Shreks Emmalee Lomman and the much improved Sue Nicholson did well against their opponents in Bec and Kylie Scott. Some good rallies! Mary Heslop’s Incredibles were thirlled with their close win over Diane Gregor’s Simpsons 4-26 to 2-23. This match also saw a woopsie set with Ben Mayne and Tanya Heslop reveling their briefs to Robert McNair and Diane. To almost even thigs up, Ben redeemed himself with Wade Hudson to have a 7-1 win over Robert and Carolyn Mutton. Diane and CArolyn had a close 5-3 win, and Diane was going for three sets, but loss a marathon tiebreaker with AlexWilson to the sister-in-laws Tanya and Mary. Overall a very good match and all players should be pleased with their efforts. Div 2 premiership table: Nemos 7, Incredibles 5, Grinches 4, Simpsons

3, Shreks 2, Flintstones 2. We hope everyone has a great Christmas and New Year and see you back in February.
