Geoff White led AME to a big win with impeccable placements. RSL led by a game after four very tight sets, but Ed and Pippa Bush won 7-3 to secure the win for Bendigo Bank. Marcus Matthews and Stan Payne made a great start in the first set for ChemMart, but Blizzards battled their way back largely due to Kim Hartwich's steady game and forehand drives.
AutoPro won well, with recruit Jim Stringer having an impact. In the final match, Josh Matthews delighted the crowd with his touch shots. Peer Taake showed why KFC travelled so far to recruit him.
