The Form Guide - Part Two

Well the last edition certainly seemed to stir up some contraversy. Let's see how we go with this next edition...
The Hardiman/Bliss contingent
  • Bernie – Along with Lyn and Pam should basically be considered an Indonesian resident due to spending about 10 months a year in Bali (It feels like that long because we are not there!) Loves wine. No, No, No, REALLY LOVES WINE. Expect a mixture of laughs and tears, possibly all at once.
  • Mick H Snr – Some say this is his Grand Final. Spent 4 years in Canberra inhaling VB schooners, before returning to hurt the younger generation in Victoria. Another super experienced Bali campaigner who’s form in the Munga bar since his return has raised eyebrows, with a number of Judd-like performances. Can go, will travel. One of the great Veteran stayers who is very dangerous. True Double diamond status, only experienced campaigners should tackle.
  • Mick H Jnr – The burning question. What will I bring to the table? I will tell you. If it’s breakfast, a bintang. If it’s brunch, a bintang…. You get the idea. In solid training. Will be ready.  
  • Zin – Will go hard or go home. No in-between for her. In full flight is an unbelievable performer. If she brings it, will destroy her husband….
  • Lisa – Will sample a cocktail and will remember everything from the night before. You’ve been warned...
  • Michael C – Another in heavy training, believed to be currently holed up in his brother’s shed. One who truly understands the rigors of a Bali trip.
  • Liv – Ballarat Uni…. Enough said.
  • Tom – Unknown quantity, may surprise with solid showing.
  • Kerry – Must run in the family, loves a wine!!!!! Will enjoy the surroundings.
  • Jack – By all accounts, also performing well this pre-season. Interested to see if he can go with the more experienced campaigners….
  • Molly – It’s Bali Kez, surely she can have one champers!!!!! 
  • Adam – In true Derek Rose style, has literally come from the clouds for this trip. I considered him a doubtful starter when invites went out, but has qualified! Will have had a full summer of Thomson Cricket Club functions behind him, so should be in supreme condition and looking for the championship.
  • Sean – HEY HEY HIPPIE!!!!! All aboard. Another fine performer. Has been training hard (non drinking style), will be interested to see if he’s still got form. Will be in it for a long way.
  • Clare – May have her hands full trying to control a rampant McGrath. Or maybe it will be the other way around...
  • The Hardiman Crew (John, Shauna, Chris, Leanne, Janet, Paul, Tim and Deb…. Maybe others) – Seriously, how good a catholic family are we from!!!!! There are way too many to write about individually. All will enjoy the trip and make themselves known to the barmen at one point or another…. Often…..
