As the temperature struck 40 degrees by late afternoon, it was clear that the decision to abandon Thursday Night Owls on 18 December was the correct one. As there will be no opportunity to reschedule, these matches are deemed a 10-10 result with each side receiving 7 points.
We move to week 8 and resumption on 8 January 2026.
On the Foxtel rink, a rematch of the 2012-13 grand final frontlines a great fixture. On 14 March 2013, Four Amigos 14 defeated Wombats 8 with Four Amigos being brilliantly led by the late great Mike "Kicker" Hudson. Hudson, a noted City of Unley councillor of many years, represented his community tirelessly and for the greater good.
But I digress. Wombats need this win badly, as badly as stalwart, Neil Fisher, needs a haircut! They have the cattle and Four Amigos have been vulnerable of late so Wombats to win this one.
Tony Zeoli's Hijackers (4th) are in fine form and will look to consolidate against emerging Leave Pass (11th).
Bowls of Steel (29th) have a 5 shot start on Chuffed & Nenz (3rd) and don't be surprised if the Steels outstay their more fashionable opponent.
And some old hard nuts will front up in the 120Ys (21st) against Bowls Brothers (22nd) in what looms as a match for the purists.
Season's greetings to all THNOs
