Tuesday December 2nd 2025

 We had 39 players tonight including newcomer Bruce Stephens.

Ken Kershaw was the drawn jackpot but failed to grasp the elusive prize.

Gary recommended that the jackpot prize be capped at $500, any excess spilling into the next jackpot. Players present overwhelmingly agreed to the proposal, effective immediately.

There are just two more weeks of play left this year.

Just three more meetings to go till the last night of the year when the top four ladder scorers battle it out for the club championship.

Tuesday November 18th 2025

 Tonight we congratulated Deniz Agdiran for winning the Speed Gammon championship at the recent Australian Championships.

Our numbers were down a little to 37, no doubt due to the above-mentioned tournament.

We welcomed two new players tonight, Malek Heidarizadeh and Nick Salarnia.

Gary was the drawn jackpot again (twice in three weeks) but again failed to deliver, being denied by Sean the Smiling Assassin.

 Today is remembrance day, and Adam will certainly remember it as the day he (finally) drew the jackpot only to be denied the coveted prize.
