A real exciting finish coming up with just 2 rounds left. The top 3 sides all getting good wins and looking good going into finals. 4th spot still up for grabs with Manning and Osborne Park closing in on Mt Lawley. The bottom 3 sides all going down its going to be a close finish for who will be returning to white.
South Perth 109 (7) vs Mt Lawley 73 (1)
(Glenn Pauling 21 - Corey Bessant 22) (Justin Opie 31 - Darren Rowland 15) (Ross Bresland 23 - Cameron Green 17) (Scott Walker 34 - Daniel Trewhella 19)
Big win here for the Millers by 36 shots and taking 7 points. The rinks of Opie and Walker done the damage and now sit in a pretty good position with 2 rounds top go. It’s the 3rd straight loss for the Mounters and are only just hanging on to 4th spot by a point. Huge game for them next round as they head to the inform Doubleview, I feel it’s a must win for them.
Cambridge 97 (7.5) vs North Beach 65 (0.5)
(Cameron Harris 29 - Chris Margin 14) (Clive Adams 23 - Joe McGinlay 23) (Michael Sweeney 26 - Gavin Crosthwaite 11) (Pieter Harris 19 - Mark Douthie 17)
As expected, the Knights taking care of business getting over North beach by 32 shots. The win keeps them in 3rd spot with a little bit of breathing room and can still push for a top 2 spot. Nth Beach still within reach of Sorrento being 5 points behind, they return back home to take on the Saints next round.
Bassendean 58 (0) vs Doubleview 118 (8)
(David Rhodes 14 - Kyle McIlroy 20) (Ruairi Kenyon 14 - Anthony Williams 31) (Troy Kinnane 12 - Ryan Moyle 33) (Wayne Neilson 18 - Charlie Slavich 34)
Holy heck Doubleview came to play! All 8 points and a 60 shot thrashing the View now sitting on top of the table. For the Lions this would probably be their biggest loss they’ve suffered at home but fortunately for them the bottom 3 sides all lost and keeps them 12 and a half points out of the beef. They should be safe but they face Joondalup in the next round and would want to win that one to make sure.
Osborne Park 87 (8) vs Sorrento 64 (0)
(Jack East 18 - Paul Knight 15) (John Goddard 26 - Rhett Butler 14) (Sean Mawdsley 21 - Ross Cunningham 17) (Segan Pasalich 22 - Bruce Eagles 18)
Great win here for the Saints handing the visitors the ol duck egg. The 8 nil win gets them within 6 points of Mt Lawley and if they can win their next 2 and results go their way they could still sneak into the 4. They head to the ice rink of Nth Beach next round. Sorrento still sit in 8th spot as the beef teams both lost, 1 more win should see them safe.
The Eagles walking away with a win and 7 handy points. They had a few players out but still managed to get the Job done. Nathan ‘The Hoff’ Jones with a 6 shot win making his debut as skip and was backed up by Knott and Mitchell. Ben Leggatt continued his good form getting the only point for the home side with a 12 shot win over Packer. Manning now are just 1 point out of the 4 as they head to Sorrento next round, if they can beat them I think they will make the finals. Only one point for the home side wasn’t ideal I think they will have to win both their remaining games to hang on to premier.
