2022-23 - FINAL ROUND
WRAP - COBRAM BAROOGA - OLD COURSE |
Another warm 28 deg forecast and not
much wind to speak of, you might say perfect conditions for golf with
absolutely, positively no fucking excuses. Some might even suggest that
if you didn't do well today then you weren't trying!!!
More history to be made with either a 2nd Massey or Matchplay for Mike
(50Pts),a 10th Massey for Paul "it's definitely in the fucking bag" West
(48Pts) or number four for Murf (also 48 - even if he is more focussed
on
and apparently been training all year with a steely resolve to win his maiden Matchplay title) or can the longshot Bean (41.5) fuck their shit up for
his 2nd title.
The Groups were drawn..... AS/GM/SL/Stoney, IQ/MB/JG/MR &
DM/MH/Joel/PW.
(The leading four in bold letters).
At the half way mark the scores were:
Robbo 20, Wally 18, Mike 16, Henry, Murf,
Glen & Stoney 15's, Gooey & Joel 14, Beano
13, then came teammates in the leading "aggregate team" Jimmy "The
Coach" 11
& Q 10 - Oh my, It was time for a half time pep talk from the
coach "we need to lift Quinny!"
The
"live ladder" with 9 holes remaining would see Mike extend his
lead to 4.5 pts over Henry & Murf, while The Bean has drifted to 13.5 in
arrears with a lot to do.
At the completion of the final round the scores were:
Robbo 41 (20out / 21in), Murf 38 (15/23), Jimmy the
Coach 35 (11/24 - The Coach lifted the roof!), Joel 33 (14/19)
& Glenn 33 (15/18), Stoney 32 (15/17), Gooey 32 (14/18) & Wally 32 (18/14),
Mike 30 (14/16 Oh oh!), Henry 29 (15/14
- "in the bag"....NOTTT!), Beano 26 (13/13), Q 21 (10/11 -
didn't lift a finger!).
And so, after commencing the final weekend 8.5 points from the lead,
Murf ultimately wins his 4th Massey by 5 points overall after
notching up 40 stableford pts on Friday (2nd place) then came home with
38pts on Saturday (also 2nd place). Which included 23pts on the back
nine - 2 shots under the card (off the stick) if you don't mind..... In
doing so he has broken a 24 year drought. Mike wasn't able to do enough to hang
on for the win but it was enough to finish runner up for the 4rth time.
Perhaps the forgotten story is the total capitulation from 9 time winner "it's in the bag"
Paul Henry West who failed to get 30 pts on either day to finish the
final weekend with two 10th placings to settle for 3rd overall 8 pts from
the winner (a 16.5 point turnaround).
HANDICAP BEST: D.Murphy
8.0 revised to 7.0 after Walter Lindrum Rule (prev 9.0).
The Nancarrows Cup Matchplay Final: Mike v
Murf
According to a source very, very familiar with the matter;
The Front 9: Giving Mike a 25 shot head start was
always going to prove a tough ask - if he had a good day!
The match started with Mike putting one over the fence off the first tee
to wipe and put Murf 1 up, The game settled in on the tough early holes
with Mike chipping beautifully to take a 1 up lead after 5 holes
(following a win and 3 halved holes). With the match all square after 9.
(a win to Murf and 3 more halved).
The Back 9: A par on the 10th saw Murf lose the hole to
a bogey from Mike (with 2 shots) - the task now seemed impossible with
all the shots to come. 11 was the pivotal hole with Murf hitting a good
drive into the left rough and Mike taking 2 to get to Murf's drive. Then
a raking 6 iron from 150+ to a high green followed by a 20ft birdie for
4 points saw a win over Mikes 3 pointer to draw square in the match.
That proved to be the decisive hole with Mike losing the next 4 holes (2
to 3,1/2,1/2,-/3) for a 4 & 3 win to Murf. The match was much closer
than the scores indicated and it was hard to see a way to beat Mike
until he started missing those chips that he's so good at.
As mentioned earlier, The Mentonian Marvel actually played the
back 9 in 2 under for a fine round that also secured the overall Massey
and achieve the rare fete of The Massey/Matchplay double!

prize money went to the team of DM/GM/MR with 177pts beating a bitterly
disappointed JG/SL/IQ (165), then Joel/Stoney/AS (160) & PW/MH/MB (157).
Stabrose Day was played at Black Bull
GC in Yarrawonga. Gooey had returned home for Grandson's first birthday
and Schimma had recovered just enough to be passed fit to play (under
duress). The three teams were: Stoney/RW/MR/AS, DM/GM/IQ/MB &
PW/Joel/JG/MH, min 4 drives each over 16 holes. DM/GM/IQ/MB
scored just enough (115pts) to win thanks to a sensational 5 iron from
Glenn on the 165m par 3 which finished 1.5 inches short of the hole
enabling Wally & Q (both with 2 shots) to tap in for 5 pts each. Not far
behind were PW/Joel/JG/MH on 112 and Stoney/RW/MR/AS with 110pts. The combination
of Murf & Glenn do it again & again!!
This gives the Mentonian Marvel a never seen before total clean
sweep of all the weekend events.
And now.....At the risk of a relapse and the reoccurrence of PTSD and
possible irreparable damage, my Psych. has encouraged me to share the
worst nightmares of Saturday's eventful round of aggregate team
golf.
After 9 Holes - we need to lift Quinny!

2022-23 ROUND
SIX WRAP - COBRAM BAROOGA - WEST
COURSE |
|
Off to a new destination for our final weekend
away. Where Paul (It's in the bag!!) West, chasing an unprecedented 10th
Massey title is the current leader 2.5 pts
ahead of Mike and a whopping 8.5 pts ahead of Murf in 3rd place. With
Beano 9 pts off the lead in 4th and 5th place Schimma some 13 pts off
the pace and a late scratching after cracking a rib in a mishap at home in
search of the Good FridayTrophy. Costing him a spot in the Matchplay
semi. However, he will be in attendance to reprise the role of Mr
Sguiggle with the return of Bean's now famous whiteboard. Gooey has been promoted to the
semi after originally narrowly missing out.
Glenn, Murf, Jimmy, Mike, The Bean, Henry and "Wally" Beardmore arrived
the prior day (Thursday) where everyone enjoyed (well at least two did)
the Saints big win over the Pies to give the reigning premiers an "Owen
3" start to their season. Schimma, Robbo, Gooey and Q turned up at the
golf course prior to tee off on Friday. Unfortunately, "Freddy" Wigg was
unable to make the trip in his debut season and Joel Wiseman (Sat & Sun)
and another local "Stoney" (Fri, Sat & Sun) helped fill the groups.
Groups for the round were drawn as follows....
PW/MR/IQ, GM/DM/MH/SL (Matchplay SF's), JG/MB/JG/Stoney.
The weather was fine & very warm approx. 27deg.
At the half way mark scores were: Jimmy 23, Murf
21, Q 20, Robbo 19, Stoney 16, Henry &
Glenn 15, Gooey, Mike & Beano 13 and
Wally 12.
At the end of Friday's round Jimmy finished with a
supreme 44 (23 out / 21 in) to win the round easily, 2nd with a very
solid 40 (21/19)
was Murf
while Stoney fought hard to finish on 38pts (16/22) in 3rd place.
Other scores were: Robbo 35 (19/16), Q 33 (20/13), Mike
33 (13/20), Wally 33 (12/21), Bean 31 (13/18), Glenn 29 (15/12),
Henry 27 (15/12 WHAAAT!!!), and Gooey 27 (13/14).
A great fight back by Mike on the
back nine now sees him out in front with a 2 point lead over "It's in
the Bag" Henry who crashed heavily and an inform
Murf, who's great round has enabled him to
reduce an 8.5pt deficit to just the 2. Beano remains the only other
(outside) chance, still in 4th place and 7.5pts from the lead.
HANDICAP BEST: D.Murphy
9.0 (prev 9.6).
Nancarrow's Cup Match Play semi finalists were Glenn v Murf and Mike
v Gooey.
The Front 9: Glenn & Murf halved the 1st with 2pts
each, then Glenn with a 3 pointer goes 1up, On 3 Murf bounces back with
a 3 to square it up, then on 4 he drops a 1 pointer to go one down before making
another 3 to even it up again after 5. Glenn then wipes 6 & 7 and Murf
shoots 3's on 8 & 9 to win 5 on end to turn 4up.
Gooey takes an early lead in the other match with two soft wins to be 2up after 2. the 3rd
is halved, another wipe by Mike and he is now 3 down after 4. Mike has
now finished his warm up and fires 3 pointers on 5, 6 & 8. 7 & 9 were
halved and it is all square after 9.
The Back 9: Another win on 10 and Murf is now 5up.
Glenn hit back with a 3 on 11, 12 is halved with a pair of 3's. Glenn
takes 13 to bring it back to 3 down. 14 & 15 are halved and it is Dormy
3! Glenn wipes 16 and it is a 4 & 3 victory to Murf, presenting him with
his 3rd opportunity for a maiden Matchplay title and erase the demons of
the previous two defeats.
Three points each for Gooey & Mike on the 10th followed by two more
halved holes at 11 & 12 and it is still all square. On the par 3 13th
both sink par puts but it's 4 pts to 3 Mikes way to break the deadlock.
14 is also halved then Mike takes 15 & 16 to score a hard fought 3 & 2
win to remain undefeated in semi's and advance to his 4th final looking
for his 2nd title.
Murf
d Glenn 4 & 3
Mike d Gooey 3 & 2.
The Match Play Finalists are Murf v Mike. (Both with a chance of
achieving The
Massey Double)
Friday evening was well spent with a very nice BBQ (meat purchased by
Wally) and plenty of BS through the night culminating in Q & The Bean
putting in the big ones until 1.30am. Who's idea was that Bean?? I
have said it before and I'll say it again.... Never Again Bean, Never
Never Never Again!!!
The Final
Round (inc Matchplay Final) is to be played at Cobram Barooga - Old
Course
on Saturday 23 March at 8.13am.
The Groups were drawn..... AS/GM/SL/Stoney, IQ/MB/JG/MR & DM/MH/PW/Joel.
The four x 3 man teams for the Fri/Sat aggregate prize was also drawn
(post Friday's game for added drama) where the best two scores would be
counted from Fridays round and all three on Saturday. Teams (with Friday
sub totals) are: JG(aka "The Coach")/SL/IQ (77),
DM/GM/MR (73), Joel(absent)/Stoney/AS
(69), PW/MH/MB (66) -
Contributing scorers highlighted.
Will "It's in the bag" Westy
steady the ship and pick up
his 10th Massey or will Murf (desperate for his maiden Matchplay trophy
and a bonus 4th Massey). Or does Mike take out the Massey Double for his
2nd Massey & Matchplay? Can The Bean have luck on his side to bring
home an unlikely 3rd win? What does The Coach have to say? - Stay tuned folks.....
