MF has this all looking smick, peelee has gone to 2 back as a load, albeit a yard Sth of 2 back and not quite a rush on the balls after 1 back

Lawn 1 , Dwayne v Stephen F game 1

Dwayne on first break through hoop 2, 3 balls on the lawn

Guessing RF tactics,

NZTPO ?
TPO both balls off ?
TPO and 1 back peel ?
Or three balls left ?

Consensus ( of small sample size ) is both off , I am for him pushing for the 1 back peel as well , especially as pushed for the early peel before 2

Rain , wind gone, suns out

RF peeled penult well past peg, through 1 back loading 3 back going to peelee , but 2 back load is well nth so , peeling rover going to 3 back seems likely ,

Dw takes his 3rd turn 9 , wide ducks , " Dwaynes calling them loose gooses " :-)

SF shoots from b baulk , misses into Cnr 1

RF jawses peel at rover with rush to 3 back

RF Makes 4 back off partner , partner going to mid court

Dw makes hoop 1 , red on Sth boundary so needs a good roll going to 2 sending partner / peelee going to 3 - hoop 1 looks in the way , yellow great on hoop 2, red 6 yards short at 3 , but pivot black nicely near 5 to tidy the standard peeling turn

RF rover rover peel , RF rushes his partner green to e boundary , getting as much of hoop 5 in the way of the contact hoop 1 roll

RF pegs out both ball clips are 1 v 1back

Dw jawsed peelee after hoop 3

Dw hampered after 4 - looks easy , but means he can't go back to 3 with a rush which Dw likes to ( maybe not that easy , two refs watching closely ) hits his 2 ft hampered shot in the middle )
Dw load to hoop 6 hits a chunky part of hoop 4 and towards e boundary

Si rolls to 1, runs 6ft hoop 30 degrees , rolls to 2, runs 3 yard straight hoop , hampered on green and looks nigh impossible - retires directly towards hoop 3 , slightly short we think for a runner

RF has a lag 2 yards to 1 back - turns it down and takes the 11-12 yarder at Si , edges it , splits it to 2 back and has a 2 yard straight hoop , runs its to Sth boundary , has. 11 yard roquet back ( may be wired with hoop 1 ) or not liking it that he ends up e of b baulk with a miss - retires Cnr 2

Sorry retires 8 yards Sth Cnr 2

Si takes lift and lags 1 yard from hoop 3 , RF lags next to 2 back - no runner

Si runs 3 with some control 3 yards past 4

Dw TP is still going, up to 2 back 1 peel done - not without effort of getting penult peeled though - break a bit loose 2 back and 3 back loads hacve all been quite a few yards away , but importantly all still holding together

Missed a play, Si is just e off hoop 4, RF runs 2 back and sits Sth boundary maybe wired from Si ?

Nope Si hits a 12 yarder rolls to hoop 4 , not liking his maybe hoop run - retires mid e boundary.

RF shoots and misses

Si taps and rolls to 4, hates it , does a few practice swings on the sideline , turns hoop down and retires slightly nth mid e boundary .

RF looks at the wired hoop spot , decides to shoot again, ,misses - will see if si's practice swings have worked

Dw has rover rover from from 2.2 yards 20 degrees - red not through , not enough jumping room ? -sadly 4 ball rover leave , that said peeling has been great all weekend and this is the first rover fail I have seen

Si better roll, crashes hoop though , bounces back , RF hits it nth , takes off to 3 back and runs 3 back with control, 5 yard roll to 4 back plays it well , has a 9 yard roll to penult - straightish

SF has break well under control running hoop 3 , clips are 1 and break v rover and rover

RF loads rover Runs penult but fails rover, Si has a short roquet and a 9 yard roll to hoop 4 , plays it ok , has. A testy distance hoop - lots of resettling , 3 yards 20 degrees , bit windy , runs it well with. A flat Sth boundary rush

Si loads 6 , runs 5 with wire has a 12 yarder , hits half ball , 6 yard take off required

SF hampered after 5 misses into nth boundary , Dw makes rover and is setting a no lift leave

Si runs a 2 yard hoop to nth boundary , has nice rush to 1 back

SF has 22 yards as his minimum , takes a shot with blue nth boundary at red 28 yards , narrow miss into Cnr 4 .

No easy rover finish though for Dw, so he may get another shot

Si makes 1 back fails 2 back , RF hits , rolls 14 yards to rover , runs 1.5 yard hoop and finishes + 6TPO - 1 game all

Think Nedward has got a stream going, so should be able to watch game 3 live , cheers Pete
