A serious question re this new system you speak of, how would handicaps be gauged? Is this system for just top level match play environments or totally across the board?

I agree. Sorry.

So the Vic women bowled fantastic and a huge congrats to them on their outstanding achievement. Their pinfall was higher than all the men's teams and I'd say they would've most likely won the men's division as well. As for the Vic men...... A few turned up and did well, it seems a few struggled...

Arguments and discussions fun eh Jim? Who woulda thought. So much mediocrity these days, little to get excited about it seems.

Shit did I get it wrong? I complained about people complaining, DOH, I've just done it againoooohhhhh the hypocrisy.

I guess you can only bang the same drum so many times, in the end if people want to only bowl on a ditch then that's what they'll get. I was surprised how many people whinged about the pattern at Epping yesterday for state champs. It's too wet, it's too long, it's different from the last pair...

This is the problem, "Common Knowledge" is no form of defence. The Rachuig paper work comes out months after State titles, I didn't read the State title paperwork as I have no interest in bowling them. Stand up in a court of Law and claim "Common Knowledge" as a defence, you'd be laughed out the...

Hi Denece, I have asked Louise about being able to roll off for Rachuig and was told that I could not. Something about not bowling State titles? I have only just received the Vic State Team roll off info from you stating that I needed to bowl state titles, unfortunately State titles were on...

Great idea Robbie, I'll get that sorted for everyone while the organising bodies don't.... Hey wait a minute, something just isn't right there? I have my own business to run with employees, machinery, customers, etc. Why aren't the people in their respective positions doing the things that need...

This would require organisation, funny that, an organisation with no organisation. Is that an oxymoron?

Last year was a nightmare to get across town, would love to go but....

Rachuig trials have been last weekend in May I believe for the last few years? I thought Sunraysia was safe for that weekend.

Yes I did correct the use of capitals for peoples names not spelling as Daz suggested, way past being relevent now. The cut off for handicap would need to be lower than 190 ave if it was implemented across the board instead of women only. 175-180 would be difficult to sandbag down to if you...

It's grass roots stuff, the numbers are down on juniors and have been for years. The "Rising Stars" thing that Glenn Rowland is getting going is great but we won't see the flow on effect into adult tournies for years. I like the old format the AO use to run, 8 games each day for 16 games Qualy...

1/3rd of the women that entered made the first cut with only one getting there with handicap. Of that 1/3rd, 100% of them made it into the 3rd stage scratch. 2/3rd of that group then made it to the finals. Scotty I'm not sure why you say that the women obviously need a start to compete with the...

George asks for "thoughts", he doesnt ask for positive or negative. The discussion for me is just that, no argument or rage. Maybe others need to control themselves and discuss the issue without their own emotions getting in the way. When I see Bec on Thursday league I'm not about to ignore her...

Mick I don't feel that at any time I have been aggressive toward anyone, people can calmly read my posts as they are intended or can jump up and down and let their own anger come out. A topic was raised and I commented my thoughts, nothing more nothing less. I've not suggested meeting face to...

No rage here mate, just talking. If I was angry I'd put in lots of capitals an shit.

The decisions are the problem not the negative thoughts for afterall, they are only thoughts. I'm positive that this 8 pins is a bad decision just as I'm positive that Rachuig trials being scheduled against the Mildura Open is a bad decision. (last I heard) I'm positive that the fact we couldn't...

If I thought they'd listen then I probably would, TBA have their own agenda and some "whinging lefty" won't make any difference. I am only one, albeit outspoken but for the most part I stand alone. BTW, I have no malice in what I say and condemn no one for sharing their thoughts. I do however...

My apologies, I shouldn't have spoken for you on that. Cheers.

Sam as you would be aware my name was down for this event however I crushed my ring finger at work and have been bowling league for the last 2 weeks using only one finger. Shooting just shy of 600 may be ok on the house pattern at Dandy but I hardly think I would get through 12 games and be...

So you'll ask them to remove your 8 pins at the next event, you do have the right to do so? The grammar police would have pointed out the lack of capitals in the word America and Asia, as I said it's about respect for others. We're on your side because we actually don't think less of you or your...
