I've had 22, back 5, 300, front 5

So you've spared the 2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10? Wow, impressive!

I bowled one in the 2007 Mackay Open, and then again in the 2008 Mackay Open. Gary Bailey Bowled on in the 2007 Open, and Dale Warren bowled one in the 2008 Open if I can remember correctly. James Dent bowled one late last year, plus there were a few others by some of the locals, but I cant...

Are you kidding me? That was their house pattern. Adrian, you knew Innisfail Open wasnt ranked, plus it wouldnt help you anyway because your not registered. You only have yourself to blame. TBA arent your parents and do everything for you, so how about you do what everyone else has to do and...

Thats 2 out of 8. Not including national youth teams challenge which isnt a ranked event. The rest have been very high scoring. Melbourne youth for example, after the first sqaud, last place was 10 under the card, and everyone else was over.

10% of the way is a big understatement for some youth bowlers out there, considering i have been bowling for 15 years, and so far this year, have bowled 9 nationally ranked events. Not to mention this all seems a little rich coming from someone who isnt even on the national rankings list. As...

Im sorry but you need to get your facts right. As per the WADA prohibited substance list valid from the 1st January 2009: SUBSTANCES PROHIBITED IN PARTICULAR SPORTS P1. ALCOHOL Alcohol (ethanol) is prohibited In-Competition only, in the following sports. Detection will be conducted by...

There is a very big difference between training on tough conditions, and bowling in tournaments with tough conditions. And not all centres are as willing as you might be to putting down challenging patterns for a limited number of people to bowl on.

TBA is also responsible for developing the pathways of elite bowlers in Australia, is it not? Because if I make a national team, and go to an international tournament, ill have 20 boards target, just like most tournaments I bowl here. I dont think one part of the lane should be shut out, but...

So 4? Asian schools, Youth, Adult and Senior?

Sorry, but we arent in the 80's anymore, you need to consider things such as ball and equipment advances. Look at the last few tournaments bowled, scores just keep getting higher and higher, when will it end? In my opinion, if TBA does nothing about it, no one will.

You obviously know nothing about this, nor have read anything anyone else has put up. This has always been a requirement and has been set by FIQ (the global governing body). TBA may have a slight say, but they cant just drop a rule that FIQ has given to WADA to enforce. This isnt about what you...

If its such a bad idea, why does the PBA have set patterns?

If by that you mean learn how to bowl on conditions where we dont need to hit our target to get strikes, then we already have. What happened to challenging yourself on a condition? Us "kids" want to bowl on conditions which make us need to put in a good shot to be rewarded, not just anything...

Yea, cause everyone should be able to average 220 in nationally ranked tournaments. Maybe we should take out the corner pins so everyone can carry to?

This isnt a requirement that TBA has set, its apart of the World Anit Doping Agency policy. The link to the document is: http://www.wada-ama.org/rtecontent/document/2009_Prohibited_List_ENG_Final_20_Sept_08.pdf FIQ is actually the one who has set this requirement, and was created to...

Great game matty, it was great to watch. Im sure there will be plenty more coming this year. You've got my vote for Australian League Bowler of the Year.

Sorry for the late reply, i haven't been on total for a while. My concern is, what benefit do youth bowlers get in bowling state championships? Its not against the people we will face at youth nationals, nor the same format or on similar conditions. Why not make it more relevant and make it...

Can you please add Hamish Rogers to the squad listing. Thanks

Hi Shayne, Just wondering if your going to be putting any scores up tonight, we have been waiting for you to do so for quite some time now. What happened to getting frame by frame scores? Hamish, Brendan and Miffy

If there is room please add Hamish Rogers. Thanks

If people arent willing to spend 1 dollar a week to see our game (not using the term sport as even people in this forum dont believe it qualifies as one) improve, not only for ourselves, but for those in the future, why bowl at all? There are so many sceptics in our community, why cant we...
