The President's Cup
Round 9 by Robert Fulford
Christian has just beaten Dave +22 including going round 3rd turn after an opening where Christian hit 4 turn 1 to go 2 yards north if of it, Dave shot and missed from A-baulk and then Christian took his shot down the boundary rushing the ball to an ideal spot to pioneer 2 getting a rush to 1.
Christian went to 4b and after a couple of errors from Dave his TP attempt got down to a longish angled rover peel that bounced off. Dave missed the resulting lift and Christian finished.
James beat me +21TP in a game where James went to 3b first. I couldn't get a QPO started and opted to make a leave for 1 and 6 with James's hoop 1 ball on the front of 6, though the ball ended up finishing in the middle of 6 and James duly took his lift with his 3b ball and hit it. He made a hoop and I missed and than he completed a TP.
Jose looks like he is about to complete an unlikely looking sextuple finishing with an STP including a bad cannon after 4b that promoted the peel close to 1b, but Jose managed to rush it back in front of penultimate despite having to take off to it from 10 yards away and then has now peeled rover cleanly from 4 yards straight, handy so he had no deep ball. All of this was with Gavin on 2 and 4b so some extra pressure on.
Jose now on 8/9, Christian next on 6/9.
Me and James on 5/9
Samir is still just about in contention on 4/8, in a pegged out ending 5 v Stephen on 2b and peg. Stephen has the innings.
