Final edition

Yes folks, after 7 years this will be the last edition of the Square Leg Files. I have been grappling with this decision for some time and woke up this morning and said “I can do no more”. Reasons, I’m just to far removed now and am finding it hard to come up with stories. A lot of the main characters are a little quieter these days or have moved on, I was reading an edition from 3 years ago and it had so much more in it back then. I have really enjoyed doing this for the community and will miss it, but its time. If somebody else want to take it over I will help get them going.

Missed by that much….

Nearly but not quite. At Murtoa on Saturday the Wallaloo team, consisting of John “be my” Guest, Lyle “Chopper” Johnson, Rod “Rude” Reading, Josh “JR” Reading, Gary “Larry” Cameron, Bruce “Boofhead” Hendy and Ben “Glendemar” Duxson, nearly come home with the chocolates. With all the scores counted Murtoa and Wallaloo where locked on 444 points each. Which comes to the count back of the card that got thrown out. Unfortunately Wallaloo's "big man that travels by truck" had a shocker and Murtoa snuck over the line. Disappointing but as they say "there is always next year".

Banyena Cup next week

23 Played for Presidents day. Winners Phil and Robyn Illes, runner-up, Joy Newall and Graeme Ellen. Sam Reading won the stroke. Next week is the very popular Banyena Cup. Great evening of Greek celebration's, souvalki's for tea and plenty of dancing. Come dressed as your favourite greek character. Thanks to Tom and Sue O'Shannessy and Jan and Jim Crow for there continued sponsorship. Word has it that a few of the old "Banyenian's" are making a comeback. Would love to see Peter “Bocky” Byrne out there whacking the sticks. Come and join the locals at the "Royal" for a great event. Oh there is golf on during the day for those interested.
