The team ventured out to Werribee Park to take on the re-entering Goonawarra. After rising early (rumour has it at 5:30AM), then detouring via Gippsland to avoid the road works and closures on the Metro Ring Road, Western Ring Road, Tulla, Westgate and every other road in between (and stopping at a dodgy bakery in Sunshine which Ash claims has great ‘bakery food’) the lads arrived for their 12:10 match feeling quietly confidant.

Their is a real camaraderie about the crew this season, and with generous support from caddies (both old and new) and team manager, the team went about their business very efficiently.

Some great first-up wins, and really solid play – it was good to see that there was nothing for granted and the pedal was down all the way. Brock was the only casualty in the 6-1 win, but he was 3 under and 1 down heading to the par 5, 9th – his 18th hole – eventually losing the hole to an eagle as his opponent finished 5 under)

If that’s what it takes to win a match this season, there is going to some quality golf on offer, and hard battles every week.

Next Sunday we take on Werribee, (who downed Mandalay 6-1), at Mandalay and it would be great to see some of our supporters out there to cheer on the team!
