The Tatti's claimed two more points towards their goal of retaining the league title with a 12 pins victory over Buccaneers at the Q Club, 357-345.
This was a strange game. At times the Bogoes threatened to run away with it but, with eight glorious spare chances, six single pins and four two pins, all missed, it became a struggle.
Fortunately, after their good opening leg, Buccaneers dropped off the scoring so when the Tatti's came to the final leg they just needed 79 to win. On a normal night this would be a formality however, the realisation that this wasn't a normal night soon dawned on the players when Prycer, Jonah & Turps managed to score just 11 pins between them. The remaining players now required five 8's & four 7's and, in keeping with the flow of the game, the TK, Benny, Boundy & Ali rallied with two 8's & two 9's, to ease the pressure.
All good then, back on track, just four 7's would leave Rusty a 6 to claim victory and the applause. Well, not quite, Cheeso, Westy, Vorni & Booby decided an alternative end plan would be much more exciting to make Rusty's 6 a mere formality to finish proceedings.
