O’Mahony comes out on top in gripping decider
Wilmot opened with a brilliant bowl. O’Mahony played his opener to the right and missed it by 40m. His second was a brilliant effort to just short of Cooke’s wall. Wilmot’s second drifted right and just made the end of the footpath. They both got good third shots towards the big tree with O’Mahony still in front. They both just missed the no-play line in four each.
Off the line O’Mahony got a good bowl to go 20m fore at the lane. Wilmot levelled with a great bowl towards the bridge. They were locked together from there to Dreaper’s. Wilmot was unlucky with his next and O’Mahony beat it by 15m. Wilmot got a perfect shot from there to light, but O’Mahony matched it to hold the lead.
