This is gonna be very tight for the finals
I have a 5th and a 7th in the last 2 weeks, so i am in form at the moment. I can probably say that i havent made a play that i have regretted in the last 2 weeks, so i am really happy with that.

still pushing the proverbial uphill to make the finals though, although a lot are gonna drop out, so i am still in with a chance of making it.
if i make FT again in the next 2 weeks, then i should make it.

all i need is the players above me to hold their positions at other leaderboards, and not place here :D

I am in bold, and all players in red are top 5 on other leaderboards and higher than they are here.

1 Fiona Britton 239.80 8 29.98
2 Shaun Dilliway 218.55 8 27.32
3 Rob Brockwell 212.00 8 26.50
4 Michael Fairlie 203.35 5 40.67 1
5 Bill Vines 193.20 8 24.15 2
6 Mick Wastell 189.90 8 23.74
7 Russell Minett 167.70 5 33.54 1
8 Aaron Kleemann 166.55 8 20.82
9 Ben McDonald 166.35 8 20.79
10 Nick Little 165.20 8 20.65
11 Darrell Roestenburg 165.15 7 23.59 1
12 Stephen Bee 160.45 8 20.06
13 Troy Haseldine 157.10 6 26.18



So the leaderboard becomes

1 (1) Fiona Britton 239.80 8 29.98
2 (3) Rob Brockwell 212.00 8 26.50
3 (4) Michael Fairlie 203.35 5 40.67 1
4 (5) Bill Vines 193.20 8 24.15 2
5 (9) Ben McDonald 166.35 8 20.79
6 (10) Nick Little 165.20 8 20.65


so at the moment, with the way i have been playing, i am confident of making the top 5. i just hope that i dont get sucked out and miss by a couple of points.

but if i play like i have been, i should make top 5 outright anyway.

fingers crossed for me!

Ben: You need Shaun to hold 1st at the Old Spot or you're stuffed.

Good luck though man.

How sad is it that I actually worked the above points scenario out for myself. Wow.

The only contentious issue benny the cunt - as Aaron said, is Shaun holding as is. Good luck man, I might have to hit some of these venues this week to encourage(annoy) as many people as possible. So far on the list - Blue Gums Monday night. Ondie, my annoyance factor alone should drop 2 or 3 out of the finals spots for you :D

if i make at least 26.85 more points than Bill and Mick, than i am in off of my own bat, but im gonna have to play well.

but yeah your right, if dilly willy stays first at the old spot, then all i have to do is beat Nick. not gonna be easy :P

benny the cunt you also need to keep an eye on mick wastell, at the vine he is in 5th 10 points clear, and at the sir john 4th but only 5 points clear of 6th, he could be a huge factor in you mathematical chances. From memory Mick missed state finals by.15 of point last season so i reckon he is pretty hungry.

wow i just went through all of the leaderboards in the b/g region and there are so many diferent scenarios on what could happen. Its going to be an exciting two weeks. Im sure most other venues in the state have an equally exciting two weeks ahead of them. Good luck to all

may all your cards be live and your pots be monsters (sorry to use some scripted mike sexton but kind of seemed appropriate)

yeah good luck to mick - i hope he qualifys for the state finals at one of the other venues!!!

i am still backing myself to make more points than him in the final 2 weeks and leapfrog him on the leaderboard - but its gonna be tough
