WEEK 12
There is no change to the top 5 places in the league table this week with all 5 top teams recording victories.
The league leaders, Workies All Chalked Up, continue their unbeaten run with a convincing 8-3 win over The Dovey Boys but they remain only 4 points ahead of second placed Salt ’n’ Asbo’s due to a similar scoreline that they inflicted on The Wessie team.
The Barley Mowners remain third following a 7-4 win against bottom placed Star Dinosaurs whilst 4th & 5th placed teams both recorded 6-5 victories. The Riflemans won a last frame decider against The Doverdale Arms and The Doverdalers let slip a 6-3 advantage to allow The Workies the last 2 frames.
They say every story has a beginning, a middle and an end. That was certainly the case in the Hop Pole v Dovey match. The Hop Pole won the beginning and the end of this story but unfortunately lost the plot in the middle with 6 continuous defeats resulting in an overhaul 6-5 loss. This Dovey win lifts them to their highest position in the league this season jumping from 9th place to a very respectable 6th place.
