Lunchtime Report

Many people were disappointed when Alejandro Barrientos ended in King. I say let the kid have his 15 minutes of fame. After all by the time you've finished reading this post you'll have forgotten him. Following the week that was, today was a great day for all aspects of handball, The too slowed were much too slow, the skimmers were skimmed fast, the headers were headed hard and the errors became errorer....er. But all was well in The Handball Premier League©.

I'd like to make an honourable mention to Rory Fearn who is putting in a lot of effort and showing commitment to join The Handball Premier League© he needs a fifth and final day on Monday to be initiated. The day was really devoted to two players who rose above the rest to dominate Kings with other players scattered in between their reigns of power. These players are Jan and Lance. Although neither of them finished in kings they controlled the handball court playing some stunning shots as they grew. Meanwhile on the other hand there were those who shall not be named who are just not performing to the standard of The Handball Premier League©. You know who you are! (feel free to comment on this, he he he he he) and I quote "the noobs became noober and the Kings became kinger". Alejandro Barrientos and Hayden Murray were not ontop of their game today and this was evident in the errors and incompetence to compete with the speed of the game they show.

The beginning of the lunchtime sparkled as Julian Beardman put up a fight to take and maintain Kings. He took the game by the scruff of the neck and bulldozed his way up knocking player after player out of his way. Some enemies were formed as time marched on, Thomas Smith made attempts to remove Hayden Murray and Glenn Northcott tried to take Rhys Williams out while Alejandro Barrientos had his eyes on Aniket Mehindale. Slowly but steadily improving, we saw Max Prestige pressurize players who had Kings in sight as he too managed to survive many rounds in amongst the Royal Triangle reclaiming King occasionally. Tim Apps was another who showed that he can play at a top level. Made King once unlike many many players today and pushed for the Royal Triangle time after time. By the end of lunchtime we were all disappointed that Moller hadn't extended lunchtime as all were keen for more.
