This weeks round up:
Q club travelled to Qe2
Tyler McKee took out a classy finish after he went off table from break second frame saw Jedi master McKillop and Jack Carson play a more tactical frame which Jack ended up winning. Rhys McLaughlin did not take advantage of his chance and Andrew potted a long red and black to win.
Wins from Riley and Jude saw the home side 4-3 down at half time.
Coming out the second half the cubs knew work had to be done so they sent out Carson against McKillop again which saw him break dry then Carson played a double from the gods which sickened the away players to make it 4-4 with Carson yelling upp the jedis. Riley Patterson took out a classy finish.
Then Q club went with experienced AJ and Ryan Scott to take them 6-5 up and just like last week the cubs came back and won 8-6 winning the last 3 frames star players on the night Jack Carson and Riley Patterson.
Scorpions welcomed Rab and Big T’s Rockets to the times bar. Rockets took the first frame with a good finish. Darren Whiteside levelled scores before Davey Blair put the Rockets ahead with a sensational finish. Lee MciIreevy made it 2-2 with a classy finish of his own and Colin Rafferty put Scorpions 3-2 up after honest Rab Butler called a foul that the ref did not see. Jonny Johnston drew level for Rockets and Chris Carson gave the Scorpions a slender 4-3 lead at the interval. Rockets came out with a steely determination after the break and rampantly punished the Scorpions’ many unforced errors in their first home league match of the season, winning the second half 7-0. Men of the match were Jonny Johnston 3/3 and Davy Blair 3/3.
Undefeated Galacticos travelled to Bowlers who have yet to secure a point. A flattering first half score line of 0-7 in favour of Galacticos appeared at half time and reports are that many of the frames could have went either way. Gary Wallace took his second frame of the night and secured another three points for the league leaders. Rab Carson finally got a frame on the board for Bowlers and nonagenarian, Tommy Hutton (aged 92) gave a great account of himself on his debut but captain Derek Whiteside eventually took the win. Glen Colwell added another for the Bowlers before the remainder of frames went to the champions elect.
Final Score Bowlers 2 Galacticos 12. Men of the match, Derek Whiteside 3/3, Paul Harris 3/3 and Aaron Rolston's 3/3 sees him move to the top of the player of the year table.
