Have a go pays off

THE RSL Have A Goes took on the Ultima Bullchuckers on neutral territory for the first of the semi-final games on Wednesday night.

The Have A Goes started well, winning three of the four doubles matches in the finals first to five format, before also winning the first singles match, leaving them only needing one win to take out the night.

The Bullchuckers made them wait after winning the next two singles encounters, but in the end, it was the Have A Goes who claimed victory on the night five to three, progressing straight through to the grand final.

Out at the Tooleybuc Hotel, the SHC Blazers and the Tooley Tigers battled it out in the second of the two semi-finals.

The Blazers got away to a good start, winning three of the four doubles games and the first of the singles to take an early four to one lead and requiring only one more game for the win.

The Tigers then took it up a notch, winning the next three singles to take the tie into a decider and final teams game, which the Tigers won, claiming a very close five games to four victory.

Good luck to both the Ultima Bullchuckers and the Tooley Tigers who will next Wednesday play in the preliminary final, with the winner of that game to progress to the grand final, where they will play the RSL Have A Goes the following week at the Swan Hill RSL.
