Trophy
Two pairs games played on 17/5:
· The Joeys rolled Simple Minds 7-4.
· Boags Brothers drew with ANZAC’s 6-6
See Bruce’s magnificent “Winners” summary for the detail.
LADDER:
The Joeys charge to a clear lead with the win on the weekend. Boags Bro’s solidifying second place then Simple Minds and ANZAC’s round out the top four, although most teams in the bottom 4 have played fewer games.
The Joeys and ANZAC’s have played the most games, 5 each. Please refer summaries, and target teams with the least games played, where possible. That of course, does not stop ANZAC’s or Joeys finishing their 7 games if they wish.
