Interesting list Andrew, I have a question for you and for the bowlers who rolled off yesterday?
What is your opinion on the Lane condition laid down yesterday and do you believe it allowed for a fair and level playing field. Maybe you could post the scores for all to see.
As an interested bystander at yesterdays event (albeit for only a limited time, the pain was too much to bare) I have my own opinion but it would be nice to here from those who organized the event and the percipients themselves.

Jim I cant comment on the condition as I didn't bowl. The averages of the Top 5 ranged from 199 Jason, 195 Ben, 194 Sharon Wilson, 193 Matt and 191 Bob. 3 of the top 5 were local Tweed bowlers.
We didn't ask Tweed to prepare anything special, just the normal house condition which is the usual procedure for Gold Coast Roll-Offs.

Hey all,
All I can say is that for the first 6 games I couldn't swing the ball and score, AT ALL! By games 7 - 10 I could roll my plastic ball in and get something going. I averaged 160 for first 6 and 200 for last 4 (last 4 with plastic). It was extremely frustrating to see some good bowlers (David, Anthony & Paul) not being able to score either.
I will admint that I am disappointed at not making the GC Team, last year was my first year and I didn't bowl all that well, but I loved the competition. So I wanted to make the team and try to prove myself, but to no avail.
Thats all I can say Jim

BEEEEEEEEEAVER
I cant really comment too much on the lanes as i had to pull out after game 1 (damn ankle)jimbo said:
But i understand what Jims getting at
Maybe an idea going forward would be a two day roll at 2 different centres.
Not taking anything away from the tweed bowlers they bowled really well and deserve their spot in the team, Well done to all who made it.

Congrats to tanya and ben, i havent bowled at tweed in quite a few years (maybe 6 ) but they sound very much the same now as they did then. It was never a place you could swing the ball out as they had some pretty large out of bounds areas, down and in with plenty of ball speed was the best way to open up the lanes. The tighter the line, the more rewarding it was.
