The Warburton Midweek side was the only success this week for the Burras.
The Midweek Warburton team played at home in perfect conditions against Healesville 1 and recorded a solid victory, 72 shots to 53. Rink scores were G. Walsh 24/ 22; S. Lord 21/ 14 and R. McKail 27/ 17. They play Upwey- Tecoma 1 away this week.
The Weekend Warburton 1 team played a very talented Essendon 1 side at home in damp conditions. In a close contest, the visitors held on to win by 8 shots, 82 to 74. Rink scores for the Burras were: A. Donohue 18/ 20; P. Caneva 18/ 16; C. Neale 24/ 22 and T. Appleton 14/ 24. They face another challenge this week at home against Montmorency 1.
The Warburton 2 team played away against Ferntree Gully 3 on a very slick green. The rain managed to hold off to allow an uninterrupted game. The Burras never gave up but the home side was far too good to win 99 shots to 58. Rink scores were: G. Lewis 10/ 29; G. Wynd 12/ 25; N. Whelan 15/ 25 and R. Bartlett 21/ 20. They play Chirnside Park 2 at home this week.
