This game was delayed due to h2 pointing 30 degrees in the wrong direction but play is well an truly underway.

Fletcher playing B on 4b
Forster playing K on H2
Westerby playing Y on H1
Garrison playing R on H3

Forster fails h3 with a laid break. Garrison misses 7 yarder for the break

Forster fails h4 from a foot. These hoops are rock solid, initial thoughts off the practice hoops from players think they are more difficult than what united was. Courts are about 12 seconds and windy so I think we are going to be in for some very long matches

Forster on h4 fletcher on 4b
Garrison has just ran h3 to h4 an has a 13 yard return on oppo or returning to partner on NB level wtih 2.. thats to close to Fletcher so taking 13yarder.. hits

Westerby on 1b

Toby doesn't have a leave, plays some very good shots an gets a rush to h,=4 from near c2. makes the hoop but something goes wrong, Aus now have the innings

Forster trying to get a break out, approaches h4 from c4. good croquet shot. Fails 2ft hoop straight

Still not past h4 but still has the innings

Makes h4 an a very good H5 to applause of Garrison (nice sportsmanship!) currently making h6 and will have to go pick up the ball still at 5 an rush that to c2ish to get a really tidy break

Foster goes to push with a spread to be 4b an peg vs Garrison 5 an Westerby 1b.

Westerby his the lift but makes an error Australia have the innings and Fletcher had a break to the peg to win. Makes 4b...

G1 Australia 26-10

G2
Garrison EB (K?)
Forster S of C2
Westerby (B?) misses partner on EB
Fletcher playing Y hits from SB. Rushes B to h1 an will be approaching from 1yN. Still has a lot of work to do for a break

Rolling out of c2 off partner for the break,..

Fletcher makes an extremely good 1.5y h2 and takes a break round. It will be a spread. Still working out what colour the Kiwi's are so we will know as one of them takes the lift..
