Nicholas Walsh 300 at Emerson Final Altona

[muxies]

Congratulations to Nicholas Walsh on your first 300 and what a way to do it at the Emerson final at Altona in Game 10.

Way to go Nick, not to be outdone by Josh's 288 the game before.

Great bowling, all were flush from where I was standing. Must be something in the water at Geelong lol!

As I said in the text to you Mr Nick, well done. To shoot a 300 during a competition in a 5 man team amongst your peers is an awesome effort.

Congratulations, Mate. Awesome game!
Dwayneo!

Was a thrill to be there to see it, Nick! (Not to mention getting it on film!) And when things got scary, I was proud of the way you conducted yourself. A real gentleman that Geelong can be proud of. And a not-too-shabby bowler, either!

Mr Walsh 300 - awesome news - very happy for you.

Now that you have the first one out of the road who knows how many more you will bowl!

Great effort and well done

 

[Mr Walsh]

Thanks to everyone for the congratulations. It will be a moment i will never forget, that's for sure. :surrender:

And to everybody who wanted me to let them know about the ball, it was weighed a further 3 times, all at different centres, and found to be fine.

Why'd you have your ball weighed elsewhere...was the ball found to be within specs or over specs at Altona?

Ultimately it is the responsibilty of the bowler, not the ball driller to ensure that their gear is 'legal' Always ask for the ball to be statically weighed before taking possession of it. A good ball driller will NEVER intentionally drill a ball with more than 3/4 of an ounce finger weight, thumb weight or side weight and not more that 2 3/4 ounces of top or bottom weight. it's just too easy for a ball to "gain weight" on someone else's scale.
