The points were shared at the Crown Chalgrove this week. As per the home game earlier in the Season the sides played out a 3-3 draw, this time only 3 dolls separating the teams over the 3 legs.
We set the 1st leg with 17 which the Crown managed to equal.
We set in the 2nd leg putting 19 on the board, the Crown replied with 12.
We thought we had the game sewn up when the Crown set us 16 in the 3rd leg but only manged a poor 12 in reply.
True to form the Beer leg was drawn so it was a dead heat all round.
Allan Davies was Top Dog (or Sheep) with 12, closely followed by Ted McCormack with 10. Good to see Captain Reg back in the side after being sidelined through injury.

Well the Tiddington CC might have the league sewn up but it didn't stop us getting the Beer leg off them
On another night we could have beaten them but we below par and lost all 3 legs.
Tiddington set all 3 legs and put 16,18 &19 on the board. We weren't far short hitting 13,14,17 in reply.
Top Banana was yours truly with 10.
Beer legs go in our favour now of 9 for and 3 against.
Next game Sunday 2nd Sept at Queens Head Horspath.

We were off to Garsington for the final game of the season with the Oxford Mails midweek resume causing confusion as to where we might finish up in the league table!!
Captain Reg called for the Team to rally and see what we could do to finish the season off.
The Red Lion set the first Leg putting 16 on the board.
We were confident of getting this but fell 2 short and replied with 14.
Undeterred Reg put us in to set the second leg, It was only an average score until Allan Davies hit 6 off the Anchor to give us 20 in total. Red Lion were well short in reply with only 11 scored.
Third Leg and Reg won the toss again and put us in, fate in our own hands!! I started with a blob !! (nerves or no beer, not sure which )
Nick steadied the ship with a superb 6 Barry weighed in with a 4 and we were looking steady again. We manged 20 this leg even with Allan following his 6 with a Blob
This proved too strong again for the Red Lion who replied with 15.
So a 4-2 win and final league position to be confirmed.
More good fortune followed when Red Lion set us 15 in the Beer Leg, we passed it with 2 players to spare, Reg hitting the winning Doll. Even Cosmo weighed in with a 4
Top scorer on the night was Nick with a superb 12.
Beer legs for the season 10 wins 2 losses and 2 draws. Must be a net profit
