THE FANTASY BOWLS SITE TEETERS ON BANKRUPCY

Wayne Wallwork, Al Purcell, Al Handlechner and Gord Terwilleger burst out of the gate on top and never looked back. Wire to wire at 12 to 1 was a sign of things to come on the men's side.


How could we have home field Larry Wales at 8-1. Combined with Mark McFadyen's (11 to 1 ) and Tom Roth's ( 14 to 1 ) teams gritty performances, the Bowls Ontario Bank ( BOB ) had to arrange for a quick subsidy from the government. Told them I supported green initiatives.


Lordy, lordy what is going to happen at the Pairs.

1. Wayne Wallwork 4-0 ( 12 to 1 )

Get hot you can get a lot. They talk about the NFL being so popular because of teams having the opportunity to go from the basement to the penthouse.
Bowls is parity defined. That is a good thing.


Now the women are much more civilized. They do as they are told and line up in order.

The checklist: Laila Hassan, Chrystal Shephard, Doreen Creaney, Helena Ho are favourites .
Finish position 1st -check
JoAnne Bugler, Maureen Thompson, Sharon Farrish, Carol Carter just behind - 2nd - check.
