Away v Severnvale won 60 28 8 points
The following report was written by Kevin French:
Another competent win and with the results from other games going our way we increase the lead over our nearest league rivals.
On Jim’s rink with Will, Trev and Andy this crowd have changed from “steady eddy ” to a shot making machine! Picking up a 6 then a 7 on the first 2 ends and then only conceding 3 ends finished with a stunning 34 3 win.
With this rink putting us up by 22 shots by end 7 the whole game should be virtually ” in the bag”- provided the other rinks didn’t do anything “stupid” a win was clearly on the cards (but knowing Redland I wouldn’t bet against it?!)
On Josh’s rink with Larry, Nigel and Kev picked up a 6 on the fourth end to go 9 1 up but couldn’t quite keep up the momentum to go even further in front, but finished very sure-footed 19 13 winners.
With the whole game clearly won it was over to RKJ rink with Mike, Jake and Calvin to see if we could get the whole 10 points, this was obviously a closely fought affair with only a total of 23 shots from both teams over the17 ends.
We went into the last end level but unfortunately no ” dapper “was bowled and we dropped one to end 11 12 down (a very close thing).
Well done once again, home to Olveston next week in what may well turn out to be a crucial game in our league campaign.

Editor’s Note: I have been asked why there was no much report for the Lloyd Trophy game. The simple reason was that Kevin was not selected for that game and I only post the reports, I don’t write them. If anybody would like to volunteer to write reports when Kevin isn’t present please let Calvin know.
