Broken Hill Men’s Indoor Bowls Association

ROUND 7 played on Tuesday night, June 24 saw both sides full, but both games were one sided. Demo held their foot at the throat of Muso Flags and held them 0pts till the sixth end when they scored a single shot.

Then they lost the next three ends and by the time Muso scored a single shot, Demo piled on 13 shots; the overall final score was 18 to 8.

The second game was between Sturt Rebels and Try-Hards and this was an opportunity for Try-Hards to get a win for the season.

Sturt without their skipper, being sick, saw a chance to breakout, but they weren’t given a chance as Sturt slaughtered them 26 to 8.

Try-Hards scored on two ends and a knockoff from Sturt’s old skipper Milton Snr gave them four penalty shots.

The ladder changed a bit.

Demo jumps to the top.

Sturt climbs to second and Muso drops to third with Try-Hards still without a win.

Round 8 to be played on Tuesday, July 1:

Sturt v Demo

Flags v Try-Hards
