Team 3 Kirk beat Team 1 Mahlo with wins for a vagrant-looking Grant Michell, Frank Cavalli, Nathan Garton, Chris Doucas and Steve Kirk.
Belinda Bunting surprised herself by winning both her matches, while local dentist Lindsay Mahlo – straight from his own chair after having two wisdom teeth removed – not only played but also won in what was a mammoth effort.
Team 2 Elliot were heard shouting “we’re back baby” after a surprise win over Team 6 Burke, with wins for Matt Garlick, Scott Burke, Pat Clarkstone, Rhonda Cavalli, Jasper Matters and Yvonne Tracey.
Steve Elliot turned back the clock for a stunning win, while the prince Lyle Davis gained his revenge by beating great mate and colleague Matt Wilson in four, and now has an entire work day with Matt reminding him about the result.
Team 5 Daquino beat Team 4 Mellis with wins for a ruthless Charles Daquino, Tim Howarth, Pat Clarkstone, Robert Ryan, Albert Cavalli and John Hannan.
Kiel Huysmans played well, while newcomer Harvey Wilson had a great opening match just falling to Andrew Mellis in five games but is ready for the challenge ahead.
