5 Different,a bit more dissention in the ranks ay :agrue: :agrue: :agrue:
Actually If as said Werribee is hosting the final,would'nt it be the ultimate embarrasment not to win the final at home or even the unthinkable of not make it thru the Zone Final

If the zone final is in Colac we will probably go with 7 left handers and then substitute them if we make the final. Actually our centre record got beaten last December by Ian Poysor (leftie) and last time CCup was here 3 of top five averages were lefties and a fourth lefty bowled the tournament high game -- is that where you are coming from Woza? (Plus the new manager is also a lefty)Woza said:If the Zone is at Colac you will need the BLIT as well as another 6
Isnt that right Gary
It is not quite as bad as all that though. Our two top averages in league last season were Neil Thompson (208 ) and Merv Billing (204) so obviously some decent right handers have slipped through.
Actually in all seriousness, I hope the zone final is in Colac. Being a small centre (10 lanes) we cannot host the final, which is fair enough and having six teams in the zone, means we can only host a zone final if one of the winning teams is from our zone. This is the case this year with Geelong Women being able to sit out the zone final. It is hard for our new Manager to support the tournament financially without having any opportunity to actually host some of the event.

That was always the reasoning with Emerson and Junior Goldpin though
The smaller centres would host the zone finals
The larger centres would host the state finals
If you look at our zone before this year
We had
Sale
Bairnsdale
Naree Warren
Morwell
and Rosebud
Bairnsdale had zone in 2002
Sale in 2003
Naree in 2004 &
Rosebud in 2005
Morwell had State Final in 2004
As Bairnsdale is now closed and Ed Flemming and Mentone have come into our zone it will be interesting to see where the Zone final is
In our zone only Sale and Rosebud would not have enough lanes to host a state final. The other four centres are big enough for the state final

That certainly makes sense. I was not aware that it was a deliberate decision to do it that way. Having only 10 lanes makes life difficult when the zone has 6 teams. You need 12 lanes (unless of course one of the teams in defending champ - as is the case this year and with Melton Men last year).Woza said:
When you say Morwell had state final in 2004 - you are not talking about Emerson? 2004 was Geelong wasn't it? (i think you mean 2003)

I did not say we had 7 GOOD lefties - just 7 lefties (and as for who is BLIT in Colac - Ian Poysor would probably lay claim to that title seeing as though he now holds the centre record). Actually we only have 5 lefties in Colac with an average around 180 or higher and a couple of them will probably not bowl. $100 is more than i earn in a week, so i will not take up your bet in case i lose. We would need to play that match on Lanes 1 & 2 - hard against the left side wall and hope you guys leave a heap on 10 pins- might have to check out the draw.. lolcraig said:lol at gary
the BLIT and another 6
heres five to put your lefties up against
chandler

harford
ryan
heidl
i'll even stick some cash up front, lets say $100 on our 5 best righties against your 5 best lefties
we'll stick porto and merv on the bench hey
Chandler, Harford (and Porto on the bench) - that is three of last years team - thought you said there was going to be 5 changes?

Don't think that Harford bowls at Werribee anymore. That would make 5 changes...
