Finally beat pingpongrob after about 7 attempts (although this was our 2nd match up to 11). In 5 sets.

I didn't actually beat him as much as he beat himself by playing my push/chop game (PING PONG!) which he didn't like very much.
His serve was also very predictable and didn't change it much which is what I think lost him the game as I knew the serve was always going crosscourt and short.
Not to mention incorrect glasses & a severe case of the Flu, you forgot to mention that I lost 2 that night, and also that I beat the leading playing this week. Never the less a good win. Lets see if you can repeat it the next time we play  :wink:

I don't understand what you mean here Shagga. 7 attempts but 2nd match to 11?? Does that mean previous 5 attempts were to 21, years ago?

Just found this topic...I'll be realistic here and say probably 0-10 (though I suspect it'll be closer to 0 than 10) haha.
Geko has admitted defeat against the EJ virus. THERE IS NO CURE PEOPLE! RUN FER YER LIVES!!!!

He plays at Sunbury - games upto 11, we also play at Essendon, Games upto 21.
I was seriously sick that night, was contemplating not playing, just as well I did, as it was the start of sorting out the seeing problem.

Ah yes, now I see. Didn't know you played at Essendon as well Rob. Shagga must be my level, cos I reckon I might beat you with wrong glasses and the flu too LOL

Personally I think you would smash him of the Court.
Every other time I played him he had Long Pimp. He is a tricky player, and if your not on your game, he'll take you down. He has taken many players down at Sunbury, a lot of unexpected wins. One player actually quit playing after the Loss. I was also concidering it. hhh

Come on, you know it would be much closer that that, especially after taking a set of Bill. I play a hard match and walk around like a cripple hhh
