Gosnells V Royal Perth on Monday 13 May 2024
We hosted Royal Perth in our final game of the year at our home course. Royal Perth were already in the final as they had won an away game whereas all we had to play for was pride and the prestige of beating the top dogs in our division.
We were successful winning 3/2 which was a great result.
The pairings of Voysey and How started the winning feeling by being successful 3/2. Unfortunately Gray & Wingrove went down 4/3, and next up was Heathcote and Stevenson who also won 3/2. Myself and Belly were always behind although we kept getting the game back to square but eventually lost 2 down. The final pairing of Hoffman & Chapman delivered us a great win by seeing off their opponents 4/3.
We ended up finishing second in our division which was a good result. We could not win the close away games but there is always next year.
This is the first year we have had reserves and it was not easy asking someone to sit out, to permit the reserve to play. I would personally like to thank all participants in Green division for their loyalty and for playing the game in the right spirit.
