Chapman misses from W of the peg at balls on EB. Looked very close

Robert going round.. I'll let you know where the clips are. Interesting to see if he will have any popping today or just the same old ball to 4b
25 Apr 2017 8:50AM (Tournament); 22 Readers
Hogan gets a southwards rush to h5 and can finally get the break under control if this goes well
25 Apr 2017 9:02AM (Tournament); 19 Readers
Good croquet stroke and will have to 3ball the first few hoops but should get a good leave
25 Apr 2017 9:07AM (Tournament); 23 Readers
Last two messages in the wrong commentary! Robert had an NSL with all other clips for h1 and Chapman at 3b

Chapman goes to c3 but misses into c4
25 Apr 2017 9:09AM (Tournament); 24 Readers
Malcolm will have a delayed TP to take the first no croquet
25 Apr 2017 9:09AM (Tournament); 24 Readers
Straight double - from in the jaws, so should be no problem
25 Apr 2017 9:35AM (Tournament); 32 Readers
Rover peel isn't dead straight, but I'm backing him to complete it
25 Apr 2017 9:38AM (Tournament); 33 Readers
Copes, might need a bombard to get rover out of play
25 Apr 2017 9:39AM (Tournament); 32 Readers
That will be 26TP to Fletchi against NZ's strongest pair. Australia will have the opening in g2

7th turn finish

Game 2:
Malcolm plays y to supershot
Hakes goes 3yE of it
25 Apr 2017 9:55AM (Tournament); 31 Readers
Robert shoots hard and misses. Finishes 10yW of c3. That will see the Kiwi's take croquet this match and I'd be surprised if Chapman doesn't finish with a clip on 4b with a few pops on Malcolms ball
25 Apr 2017 9:56AM (Tournament); 32 Readers
Chapman approaching h3 with all the balls. Will be interesting to see what happens after this
25 Apr 2017 10:02AM (Tournament); 35 Readers
Chapman not in a popping mood
25 Apr 2017 10:07AM (Tournament); 30 Readers
No pops. NSL with Malcolms R at 3b
25 Apr 2017 10:21AM (Tournament); 28 Readers
Malcolm goes to c3 and middles the lift off the SB
25 Apr 2017 10:31AM (Tournament); 27 Readers
Has all the balls and approaching h5 in control
25 Apr 2017 10:33AM (Tournament); 32 Readers
Malcolm had an NSL with Chapmans 4b ball at 3b

Chapman looking at shooting at balls on EB from where it lies
25 Apr 2017 10:42AM (Tournament); 34 Readers
Changes his mind
25 Apr 2017 10:45AM (Tournament); 31 Readers
Hakes lifts the ball and goes to A Baulk
25 Apr 2017 10:45AM (Tournament); 30 Readers
NZ needs to hit or that will be 2-0 to Australia

Misses badly
25 Apr 2017 10:46AM (Tournament); 31 Readers
TP for Robert to take the match 2-0
25 Apr 2017 10:46AM (Tournament); 31 Readers
I didn't expect him to be approaching h1 from 7yNW but he is
25 Apr 2017 10:51AM (Tournament); 34 Readers
Finishes with a 2y angled h1 and 1/2 balls his 7y forward rush so that will be that one. Let's sit back and enjoy the quality
25 Apr 2017 10:52AM (Tournament); 34 Readers
Not a great rush to h1.. needs a good cut here
25 Apr 2017 11:13AM (Tournament); 35 Readers
2 peels done.. straight rover for the match coming up
25 Apr 2017 11:17AM (Tournament); 37 Readers
