FATHERS RIP IT UP! 165 - 97

Captain Nads won the toss twice (tossed twice?) and opted for scoreboard
pressure sending in Saint Choco and N-N-N-Norris to lay the foundation.
Choco (20) and Norris (25 not out) declared early intent.
Nads (31 not out) and Gilly (33) set the standard with a top scoring
partnership and the Fathers may well have opted for an early car park sesh
by declaring and sending the Warnies in with 109 on the board.
Billy (15) and SAO (not too bad - he got mandkatted without facing a ball
and lost concentration - filthy!) put on another 11 runs then Madman (top
score 35 not out) and Itchy (10) took the total to 165.

From there it was all bad news for the Warnies. They got off to a bit of
a start and picked up a skin but the FFCC cool headed crew capitalised
with a steady line, good length and just the right mix of wicket taking
shite.

Billy and Nads were standouts in the field.

The run chase went like this:
Madman 0 for 23
Norris 1 for 11
Billy 0 for 18
Nads 1 for 4

Itchy 1(jackpot!) for 3
SAO 0 for 17
Gilly 1 for 9
Choco 1 for 6

Billy 2 for -1
Norris 3 for 0
Choco 1 for 2
SAO 5 for -19

Madman 0 for 13
Itchy 1 for 5
Gilly 1 for 4
Nads 2 for -5

There was much rejoicing in the carpark where Beerboy Billy was pinged
with several fines for questionably less than 24 beers plus several
radlers (chick beers). Norris invoked Rule 16 and Gilly dubbed Billy the
Kid "Billy Jean the Kid" or "BJ the kid" or "BJ" for short. (Several
other "aliases" for various Fathers were noted also. (I'll let Itchy break
the news to The Snorkmeister!)) Billy was unimpressed but confessed his
kid-like status is in doubt having just notched up his 30th birthday.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BILLY!

Next Week 6:50 and Norris is IN!
And Gladdy???????
