From the perspective of the vanquished:
Well, we did it again. This really has become a feature of the latter part of our season. We drop a large score early on in the game, then play well to claw back the deficit by the penultimate end, only to lose the cliff-hanger final end!
I am writing this too late to remember the specifics of the game but I do recall that our opposing third, Dougie, had a particularly good game, achieving a remarkably high percentage of his called shots. Indeed, I seem to recall congratulating him through gritted teeth on his contribution to the last end – the end that sealed our fate as winners of the wooden spoon in the league.
But it was a good game and everyone played well. C’est la vie.
John.
