A night full of surprises.....

Forum 3-4 The Seamen

A pleasing result after losing the home tie 7-0, but nearly every game had twists....luck ebbed and flowed, but probably evened out overall....quality pool from both teams....there are going to be a few changes in the divisional singles leaderboard....

Bet the farley boys will be well happy.....also bet farley has done a post while i'm doing this....

Good luck for the end of the season guys...

I don't understand your point Chaos; what was wrong with them picking Cathy Taylor again? Surely the fact that you weren't penalised for turning up short was in your favour?

I just don't understand why anyone who can't a full team one Tuesday would moan about the 'pick again' rule. I agree it's a terrible rule - if you can't get a full team out you don't deserve the chance to get an extra frame on the board and it leaves teams able to manipulate the system if they have a weaker player by not putting them in the team and making the opponents choose from a stronger set of individuals, but I'm not sure what Chaos is trying to get at.

Is Cathy Taylor your weakest player and you're not happy at your opponents picking her again?!!

Surely you don't expect them to pick your best player? And surely you should be grateful at having the CHANCE to win the 7th frame after not being able to field a full team?

Maybe i'm just missing something. I'm good at that.

we think pick again rule should be scrapped. if you cant field a full team then you should be penalised.

I think the pick again rule is hilarious. I got picked to play again on Tuesday when I was the only player in my team who'd won their frame. The reason they gave? "We want to be able to really take the piss out of him if he loses twice!"

The price you pay for turning up short is the very strong possibility that your weakest player is going to get picked again . . It's just the way it is and rightly so . .

Ask Clive Taylor . .

Why should allowances be made for a team who turns up short? It's bad enough they get to pick again as it is . .

Clive Taylor always turns up short.

A few years ago the pick again rule was a rarity, now it seems to happen all the time.

But it's back in the winter if it's decided that the Summer format isn't popular . .

You really believe that a team who can't get enough players out should have the chance for their strongest player to play a second time?!!!

If the current winter format does return next year, I think it should return to having a maximum number of occasions it can be used.

The stupid thing about it is that you are possibly better off playing five strong players, and giving one frame away, than playing 6 players when the worst player will be picked again effectively giving away two frames.

That cant be right can it.

I think that if a team can't field a full team they should lose the respective frame as simple as that.

If they have five players and it's a 7 game event, they automatically lose two frames. Shouldn't be any question about being allowed to play the same player twice.

It's down to the captain to ensure he has a full squad. Just the way I see it point and laugh

Make you right Shaggy and BigJake. That's why I really can't understand Chaos's winge about the opposing team picking their weakest player!! You shouldn't even have a chance to win that frame when you can't get a full team.
