Greg super shot with yellow, 3 yards nth of hoop 5 and 1.5 yards west of centre line

Robert with blue to maximum distance east boundary, greg misses on an angle from b baulk to 9 yards south of blue east boundary

robert from a baulk centre balls the super shot yellow, hits it south of hoop 6 and level with hoop 2 , take off to blue , gets a rush to 4 yards nth of red , takes off and has a slight cut rush to hoop 1 - rushes to 1 foot south of hoop 1

roberts break continues with no complications and is up to hoop 5

robert completes break and sets a DS , yellow is 6 yards from west boundary and 13 yards south of nth boundary , red is tucked closely behind peg - but very close with a 1/3 to 1/2 ball showing for yellow . robert rushes blue to mid court east boundary (Trev says 60% of red showing ) robert rolld blue down east boundary to 12 yards nth cnr 4 and a rush facing both balls

greg lifts red and heads to a baulk

greg misses bewteen the two balls

robert safely through hoop 1 and well layed lawn ahead

robert misses 4 back peel , looks like no pull came in and clipped off the right leg , settles 8 inches east of hoop

nice set up at 4 back, no rush after hoop 5 and is rolling from nth west of 5

fails peel going to 6, fails rush peel after 6 , but has a takeoff peel going to 1 back ball - peel gets into jaws , but pops back out

runs 1 back , no load at 2 back , but has a nicely placed escape ball west of 4 back that will be clear of the peg line rush to 2 back

still has to play a good croquet shot from nth boundary behind hoop 2 loading 3 back , going to peelee - good shot to peelee and rush peels , his blue does clip red out of position after the roquet on peelee , should cope

sends black to penult , slight cut on a 1 yard rush to 2 back , has a 4 yard roll in from east of hoop 2 back , hoop 3 load is also 5 yards short , so a bit of work to do to squeeze it all in

good hoop approach and runs hoop to give him a rush to penult area and lets him set up tightly , loads the red as the pioneer rush to 4 back , rushes peelee to the short 3 back load and sends it back to penult about 2 feet short and east , perfect rush to 3 back , but wont get rush out of hoop .

rolls from level with 3 back , but goes past peelee , will be setting for a straight double

roberts had a few straight doubles this weekend and think he has only put one down , so should be good odds to finish , penult hoop has abit of grab and most well hit peels dont go much past peg , maybe a yard or two

peel is from about 18 inches straight

peel is perfect , but clips the red ball short of the peg and ends up 1 yard past peg, with no collision it would of been a yard short of rover but maybe a yard or 2 wide

has croqueted yellow to a good level with rover escape ball , rushes red to a foot behind black, has a dolly rush to rover - all on the weight of the shot

rushes to 40 inches from the hoop and about 5 -10 degree angle , perfect peel and his own ball pops through by three inches , peel is about 1.5 yards through , rushes escape ball towards west boundary but plays a good take off to red near the peg , nice rush to his black , 2 foot take off to get a rush to the peg , rushes nicely and pegs out to win .

well done Robert and wins the prestigeous Dixon advisory classic for 2016, and joins Kevin Beard and Greg Fletcher as winners of this event
