1964...the year that the Saints won a flag.
The connection is now clear.
Code:
Year Champion 1949 SW. Levick 1951 J. Purdy 1952 J. Hortovanyi 1953 M. Broun 1954 D. Robson 1955 J. Hortovanyi 1956 A. Irving 1957 J. Ferguson 1958 D. Rudd 1959 R. Klinger 1960 P. Lay 1961 T. Hay 1962 N. Alexander 1963 M. Fuller 1964 W. Kerr 1965 W. Kerr 1966 M. Woodhams 1967 A. Pope 1968 N. Craske 1969 J. Hendry 1970 A. Sauran 1971 A. Koelle 1972 G. Melrose 1973 R. Bartnik 1974 W. Jordan 1975 M. Chandler & D. Dick 1976 I. Rogers 1977 D. Johansen & D. Fardell 1978 M. Smith 1979 S. Kerr 1980 S. Solomon 1981 R. Casse 1982 P. Broekhuyse 1983 K. Hornung 1984 P. Evans 1985 T. Reilly 1986 S. Hill 1987 Colin Davis 1988 L. Jones 1989 P. Cotton 1990 N. Speck 1991 L. Jones 1992 T. Tao 1993 J. Wallace 1994 R. Curtis 1995 C. Pizzato 1996 D. Cordover 1997 M. Leskiewicz 1998 G. Saw 1999 D. Smerdon 2000 J. Tan 2001 Zong-Yuan Zhao 2002 Kuan-Kuan Tian 2003 Tomek Rej 2004 Denis Bourmistrov 2005 Molthoun Ly 2006 Angela Song 2007 Michael Wei 2008 Junta Ikeda 2009 Bobby Cheng (Except Bill Kerr in 1964...the Saints connection established). Well, that might set the bookies thinking about their market for the next winner. Hard to go past BC though.

While considering the new 9 day format for the U18 section a dramatic improvement as far as encouraging more players to attend , I think the same format should have been used for the U14 instead of dropping to the 5 day/ 2 games a day. If he plays U14 I know that given 90+ to play with he will take every second game out past 3 hours and then be exhausted by half way through the next game. So most likely U18 and see how he goes. |

Looks like a fundamental choice. Perhaps he could take the Flavid Dude tactic into the U14 and play something that is more than likely to be an open game, quickly decided. (viz the Blackmar-Diemer gambit). Just a thought. Would be nice to win a title.
