· A special mention goes to Ian ‘Rooster’ Anderson for pe***ng a 125. While the score itself is impressive, it’s the way he achieved it that deserves the real accolades. First dart — Green Bull. Second dart — Red Bull. And, you guessed it… third dart — another Red Bull!

· Not to be outdone by the heroics of Rooster, Willie Bytheway matched Larry Leedie’s record on Wednesday night, racking up an impressive 17 scores of 100 or more. A fantastic effort and a record well worth celebrating!

Franco Bianco— The Man, The Legend

From hunting crocodiles in the wilds of Far North Queensland, to chasing threadfin salmon in the remote waters around Normanton and bow hunting wild pigs through the bush, Franko Bianco has lived a life that’s unmistakably Queensland.

He’s cut cane along the coast from Mossman to Innisfail and worked installing manholes in tight, claustrophobic conditions that weren’t for the faint-hearted.

A hunter, a fisherman and a hard-working Queenslander, Franko has spent a lifetime taking on whatever the bush, the water or the job threw his way.

But through all the adventures, the hard yakka and the stories gathered along the way, there was one thing that never changed.

Darts was always where Franko’s heart was.

Franko Bianco — the man, the legend, and a true character of Far North Queensland.

Another successful day at darts, Carolyn starting to enjoy the new EFTPOS system. Again a great turnout 42 male players and 14 female players with some fantastic darts.

The Ladies Open winner was Nancy defeating Lydia.

The Mens Open winners was Grant defeating Merv in a very close game. Well done Grant deserved win

Highest peg was Trent for the men with 147 and Nancy with 100. Most 180's goes to DJ Masina with 4 and Rachel and Latoya with one each. Other 180's include Vincent, Merv, Adrian all with one and Grant with 2. (hope that's correct I left my list in the hall)

Big thank you to Carolyn for looking after everything front of house, Jess for the kitchen, Dickie for all his work and Sam helping with the Ladies draw.
Sorry if I missed anyone.

Thanks to all the players who took part this weekend and congratulations to our Cairns Open Champions once again Grant and Nancy.
🐓

Cairns Open commenced.
Great turnout today with around 60 competitors taking on the doubles and mixed Doubles.
Our Open winners so far are Nancy Myers and Latoya winning the Ladies Doubles defeating Lana and Latana.
The Male Final was taken by Trent Thompson and Daniel, beating Rob and Ettie in a close final. Merv Alistair Gordon and Vincent making it to the Semi Final.
Mixed Doubles another hard fought battle eventually being won by Rachel and Jakeb Savage beating Maddie and Ettie.
Still money up for grabs with the most 180's held by Daniel and Rachel and highest peg sitting at 96 for the females and 147 for the male.
180's so for for Daniel 2, Adrian 1, Rachel 1.
