Oh no … we are playing another Club so we are almost certainly in for a hiding. Wait a second this is a Club that doesn’t have a royal tennis court. They have to practice using some app on their i-phones. They’ll be jetlagged and culture shocked after travelling into the badlands south of Sydney. We’ll beat them easily won’t we? City slickers Chris Cooper (37) Sav Cremona (37) Hamish Oates (35) Nicholas Oates (50) and Paul Sproules (60) ride into town.

Goodness me … at the end of the first day it was 6 games all. Maybe that app they’re practising on isn’t as good as all that. Of course Ballarat usually performs appallingly on the second day what with the drinking problems and so on.

As predicted Sydney wins the second day 6 matches to 2 giving them an overall margin of 12 matches to 8. Well done Sydney that’s a lot of games over two days for a well-deserved win. Maybe if we got rid of our tennis court we could beat them next year.
