RESULTS - Round 17


Round 17 and the results are refreshing.

Defending champion, Lyndon appears to be peaking at the wrong end of the season, much like his beloved Cats. Certainly Lyndon has left it too late. But as for his hooped friends ... Lyndon topped the round this week with a score of 8 and margin of 53. A win's a win.

A single point off the pace and second for the round, was the Cygnet, Omar, with 8 and a margin of 54. But the thing that matters most about his new ladder position is the fact that he's now in front of Mum.

And third for the round ... our new overall leader Shaar who scored 8 with a margin of 57. Well done Shaar. Can she hold her nerve with only six rounds to go? Is she peaking at the perfect moment?

The J@TS team jumped into second place, pushing the Three Amigos - Patrick, Peter and Mark - down the ladder into the remaining top 5 spots. But with only a couple of points the difference, it's still a top 8 game. 

As for the Mistress ... I just stopped behaving. I had been disciplined all year, played the percentages rather than the passions. But I couldn't hold my nerve, couldn't stick to the team game. I can say now, that I have well and truly fallen off the wagon. Was almost tempted to tip against the Pies this week! I'll be tweeting and speeding and abusing the junior footballers before you know it.

While Peter tipped from Bali, the best international tip must, this week, go to James, who tipped from Bhutan where he is on an extraordinary landscaping assignment.

And lastly, we have the season's first bonafide tanking admission. Sally has packaged her score of 1, margin 84 as intentional.
