We'd love to congratulate Robyn, and welcome her as the first to join the elite group of players who can say they've beaten the best in the West!

Tony Aslani won the overall Free League Season, and also placed in the top 24 in the Grand Final, well done Tony, on being our 1st Free League Season Champion!
All our players who finished top of their Venues were awarded certificates to signify these achievements, and as we all know, there was a lot of competition for the winners of different venues, so well done to you all, too!



Last, but definitely not least, we'd like to give a HUGE THANKYOU and congratulations to everyone who was involved with running the Grand Final on Saturday. To all our wonderful staff on the floor during the day, you all looked great, and worked even better! To our lovely waitresses, those awesome bar staff and merchandise staff, and everyone who was involved behind the scenes, thanks, we very much appreciate your support!

Special thanks also must go to Buck from Budget Cabinets, for the huge effort he put into making the incredible piece of art which is the Final Table! It was a major disappointment for him and us to have a hard drive fail at the last minute, which meant we couldn't take footage from the cameras on the night, but the table worked a charm, looked fantastic, and we can only thank Buck for all his hard work to make it so!
