Congrats to you all on a well deserved team victory for the Turbos.. KK's plan to ambush you with a cunningly concealed Joker play backfired.

PWJ Posted August 1, 2020 Author Share Posted August 1, 2020 Round 5 - Saturday Aug 1 Race 10 - Randwick R91st - 6 Off Shaw W-$5.80 2nd - 9 Charretera Q-$12.80 Scr: 4,8,10,11 4 FERDIES (1st) $953.00 3 points 1 CHIEFS (2nd) $726.80 0 points Miss Redoble tried hard but couldn't get The Chiefs, who all missed in the last, home. Heather found the ex-Kiwi winner to squeak past Jack in the last to secure a bonus point for the 'Naki for a 4-1 margin and take out Match Star honours. Her unlucky opponent Jack was Chiefs MVP. Well done team ! 110.00 Ashoka 51.80 Ian 279.80 Heather 234.00 Jack 66.00 Zac 77.00 Gee 248.80 PJ 170.00 Punter Pete 248.40 Maurice 194.00 Stevie N 3 HURRICANES (5th) $849.80 2 points 2 CRUSADERS (3rd) $865.00 1 point Stella Sea Sun never yelped and Steel Diamond only plugged for 4th so The Hurricanes held on to win with a BB from Man of the Match Porky (5 winners) their final collect. Rob also bagged a BB for The Crusaders at the death to secure Canterbury MVP status and ensure a higher aggregate for an important bonus point. 86.00 John 35.00 Robert 117.00 The Crucible 339.00 Rob 266.80 Hesi 235.00 Craig 380.00 Porky 59.00 Tom 0.00 Virgil 197.00 Rex 1 KAURI KATS* (7th) $866.60 0 (x 2 Joker play) = 0 points 4 TURBOS (5th) $1059.60 3 points Miss Redoble tried hard for The Kauri Kats in the last but came up short so The Turbos - who failed to score in the last - held on to win and took a bonus point for the 4-1 margin. Sharne bagged a BB on her own in the last for The Kauri Kats whose Joker play proved unsuccessful. Blind Squirrel with 6 winners was an impressive Man of the Match while his opponent Rocky - unlucky in the draw - was Kats' MVP. 51.00 Max 196.80 Ray 110.00 Graeme 189.20 Gary 366.60 Rocky 406.60 Blind Squirrel 262.00 Sharne 24.00 Rees 77.00 Jen 245.00 Steve P 2 BLUES (8th) $912.60 0 points 3 BARBARIANS* (6th) $1115.60 2 (x 2 Joker play) = 4 points The Blues were unable to turn it around in the last although Roland did bag a BB to collar Mardy but this was cancelled out by Moose also banking a BB to catch Gordy. Roland's late effort earned him Man of the Match honours while Richie was MVP for the victors who made good use of their Joker play coming away with 4 points. No bonus points were earned. 319.00 Roland 259.00 Mardy 170.00 Howie 130.00 Pam 122.80 Pete 310.80 Richie 130.00 Gordy 167.00 Moose 170.80 Geoff 248.80 Ziggy * Joker play The Table after Round 5 1st 18 FERDIES* $5396.80 2nd 13 CHIEFS* $6840.20 3rd 12 CRUSADERS* $4408.20 4th 10 HURRICANES $5283.00 5th 10 TURBOS $4944.60 -------chance to win the Championship above this line only--------------- 6th 7 BARBARIANS* $3734.20 7th 2 KAURI KATS* $5020.60 8th 0 BLUES* $4419.60 * joker played The Ferdies' win today over their nearest rivals The Chiefs allowed them to open up a 5 point gap at the top with two rounds remaining. No other positions changed although the Barbarians' successful Joker play puts them well clear of the two tailenders. Only the top 5 can now take out The Winter Championship with two sides - The Hurricanes and The Turbos - still each with a Joker up their sleeves. The Blues and Kauri Kats look set to fight out the battle for the Wooden Spoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Hello, boys! Where are you from?" she coo-ed. looking very glam all rigged up... "Up north!" we said, looking for the nearest and quickest exit stage left! "Oh, I went to Tikipunga School" she said as she started stroking my WRIST !! LOL Truth to tell, it was hard to be offended...but she was right 'out there' as we said at the time and beat a hasty retreat. The good old days, mate!

Sir Gallivant Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Once again many thanks to John and the Hurricanes and PJ for allowing my picks this afternoon late. Congratulations to the Hurricanes. Onwards team with us meeting the table toppers in last round, could be that our match with REES'S TURBOS will decide how close we are to the Ferdies to challenge them ..... having said that Ferdies are proving a tuff group to crack !!!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
