Frank McGrath has done it again with a terrific Morley Magic Millions pairs carnival The format was four games of 11 ends 2x2x2x2.

This format gives ordinary players the chance upset the champs and with 48 teams entered amd many more that would have played but for pennant committments proves its popularity. Well done as usual Frank McGrath and that is why they all say you are the best in the business.

There were several quality sides playing in the event and there are none bigger or better that John Goddard.
He and Paul Pendergast played Anthony Provost and in a tight game and won 9/7

Steve Black, Bill Galloway, Rhett Butler, Ross Bresland, Daniel Patterson, Mike Trojak, General Nicol, Wings Evans and Wayne Heldt were just some of the many who were playing.

Gary Blacklock came up from Yunderup while Rob Bowron made the journey up from Eaton

The winners were a father and son combination, Brad Ball and father Norm Ball. Brad skippered the side to victory. We might remember that Norm has played Brad twice in pennants this year and won on both occasions.

Another father and son combo in the money was that of Darryl Radford and son Baden who finished third. It is unusual to see two father /son combinations in the winners list at the same time

Brad Ball displays the style that took him to first prize at the Morley Magic Millions, Brad and Dad Norm took out the first prize. Notice brad's bowl which appears to be going toward Bassendean, maybe a new type of shot that Brad has developed :>)
