AndyP v BrisVegas - it feels like a Grand Final

[BrisVegas]

AndyP v BrisVegas - played Sunday Feb 10 at Gailes GC. (Wynnum Cup flooded)

10 hcap v 8 hcap.

POTY #2 v #1.

(01) BrisVegas $303,500 16 Q 2
(02) AndyP $262,333 36 Q 1

It's the most prolific ozgolfer, admin for the site and all around top bloke AndeePee versus the sneaky last gasp winner of everything in 2008.

AndyP's running hot after his usual Christmas sunny coast golf festival and is now playing off his lowest handicap ever. He even bought some new clubs this year.

Vegas is in a 12 month slump (ozgolf champs excepted ) of poor form and has drifted to his highest handicap in 15 years.

Geez, talk about a tough draw in the first round! Whatever happened to the matchplay winner getting a bye in the first round???

Could this be the first time ever that the reigning champ doesn't get past the first round?

And more importantly, if Vegas bows out early, who else can stop the juggernaught?

[goughy]

And how many of those new clubs have been ditched after his xmas jaunt? Which is scary, cause his xmas golf was ok, and he wasn't happy with the performance.

With the ravens in the bag be scared V!!!!

And it's the luck of the draw (from my daughters ripcurl cowgirl hat)

[kpac]

you'll smash him like a bug BV

[PeteyD]

At least I get an easy warm up match.

[BrisVegas]

what holes does he get shots on? Is it 4 & 12? Come to think of it, is P off 9 or 10?

[AndyP]

Wynnum Cup form (nett scores):

2004: AndyP 67 BrisVegas 79
2005: AndyP 71 BrisVegas 70
2007: AndyP 70 BrisVegas 71

I'm tempted to start my course planning early.

I haven't played in 08 yet, so we'll see how the form is after my Sunday round. I'll still keep the two shots if you don't mind (unless I get back down to 9).

Where are we playing in the event of a tie?

Where are we playing in the event of a tie?

Why did you leave out my 2006 score?

If we tie, then I guess we head to (I can barely say it) M-M-M-Mcleod and certain death for me.

[AndyP]

Why did you leave out my 2006 score?

I didn't look it up, as I didn't play in 06.

If we tie, then I guess we head to (I can barely say it) M-M-M-Mcleod and certain death for me.

There's no reason why we couldn't play it before at Gailes or something, if availability permits. It's hypothetical anyway.

FWIW I've been told McLeod is looking good after all the recent rain.

[BrisVegas]

updated. Unfortunately I sold the hot putter I had in 06.

2004: AndyP 67 BrisVegas 79

[AndyP]

No wonder you asked about the missing score. You're the favourite!!!

Wasn't this your turning point in the tournament after a "scare".

[poidda]

does "scare" = "loss" ??

nope "scare" = "smashed"

[BrisVegas]

yeah, well if P beats me, I'm still a chance for reinstatement if he breaks a knee cap, for instance...

[BrisVegas]

yeah? not me. i know I beat you soundly enough in the final and that's all that matters. At least you got that far. where'd poidda get punted out again?

[poidda]

It sure would eat at me if I'd got thru to win the event with a loss thrown in there.

Yeah considering all the extra POTY cash that you would be "given".

[Stoney]

yeah, well if P beats me, I'm still a chance for reinstatement if he breaks a knee cap, for instance...

You know I can arrange something for you

[poidda]

Oh come on...you practically fell in after stumbling all thru the back side.

I forget. Who was it that won with 113?

[Stoney]

If its tied..get your arses up the first....i'm sure we can stop the field hitting off for such an event.
I'm also sick of the sneaky hand signals from 3 fairways away to find out the ongoing score. Stoney can you hire one of the old ****s at the club to carry around a scoreboard thingy like in the big tournaments ?

Just get the Mobile Phones working overtime with hole by hole SMS updates

[AndyP]

BV can be reinstated when I travel to the Northern Territory for work mid-year.

[BrisVegas]

"won" being the crucial word.

couldn't agree more mate. it's all about getting the job done on the day. poidda struggles with that.

[Stoney]

Stoney...just ask Wellsy if he wants to do it. He can lug the esky around too.

Wellsy wouldn't get his big arse out of the clubhouse, his a comittee man now, VIP even.

[PeteyD]

What other matchups are happening at the Wynnum Cup?

[AndyP]

That's off-topic, Petey.

[poidda]

couldn't agree more mate. it's all about getting the job done on the day. poidda struggles with that.

That's low Vegas! What's Mrs 69er got to do with things?

[PeteyD]

Oh bugga. Crush him dion! hehe
