CAN THE KIWIS SNATCH ANOTHER WIN THIS WEEKEND?
The Kiwi’s may not have the most impressive overall statistics compared to the rest of the Pro Series competition.
However, they have showcased their ability to rise to the occasion and claim victory when it matters most, defying expectations and delivering outstanding performances on the biggest stages of the competition.
The Australian public were exposed to 4 Kiwi players during the very one-sided Trans Tasman Test held at the latter end of last year.
How the Kiwis have performed during this years Pro Series is another story.
Statistical guru Marcel Prins delved into the raw data and what he found peaked the interest of the Pockets Sports crew:
“Three Kiwi players [have reached] the quarter finals or better on three separate occasions… emerging as champions twice.
“Despite their relatively modest numbers… they have proven their mettle.”
The Kiwis are ready to prove once again that they have what it takes to snatch another win and leave an indelible mark on the Pockets Pro Series. As the upcoming weekend approaches, the question remains:
Who among the Kiwis will step up and seize the moment?

Win-less Series Soon to be a Thing of the Past!
One look at the Pockets Pro Series leaderboard and two names stick out.
Lyndall Vine and Jayme White are both without a match win to their name for the series.
Fittingly enough, both players have drawn themselves in the first round in Championship 7.
Lyndall, the receiver of a wild card due to her dominance in women's pool for decades has shown glimpses of class, but has been unable to get that first win.
The South Australian is arguably the most decorated player in Australian cue sports, yet hasn't been able to replicate the feats that has seen her win title after title.
Jayme, also winless after six Championships has struggled to find form capable of producing a win.
'The Kid' has found himself on the wrong side of the scorecard early on in his matches and while he has clawed his way back into the matches, the damage had already been done.
Lyndall and Jayme break off at noon on table 8, with the winner progressing to table 1 at 2.30pm.
Championship 7 kicks off on Saturday 17th of June. Keep up to date with the live scores at pockets.com.au

Stella – The Miles Franklin Story
STELLA: The Miles Franklin Story – feat. Monique diMattina, Alma Zygier & Fem Belling
Songs, skits and gossip from a musical in development.
Acclaimed Australian composer/lyricist Monique diMattina presents a concert work-in-progress version of her newest project – STELLA: The Miles Franklin Story.
Sharing songs, stories, gossip and skits from this musical in development, Monique and her all-star chamber orchestra tell the extraordinary life story of Australian author Stella Miles Franklin.
Starring ALMA ZYGIER and FEM BELLING and featuring
The Brindabella String Quartet:
Fem Belling, Xani Kolac, Esther Henderson, Kalina Krusteva
The Talbingo Band:
Monique diMattina, Cat Canteri, Adrian Perger, Sam Lemann, Ben Robertson
Although the Miles Franklin Award is Australia’s most prestigious literary prize, most Australians are unaware that Miles was a woman, let alone the details of her extraordinary life.
Weaving together songs, gossip and Stella Miles Franklin’s own words, the show brings audiences on an epic journey from Franklin’s Snowy Mountains childhood to fame as the young author of My Brilliant Career, years battling for women’s suffrage and labour rights in the USA and UK, WWI field work, creative struggles and legacy as a trailblazing champion of Australian art, conservation and culture.
STELLA: The Miles Franklin Story will make you laugh, cry and love what Stella called ““our unique, inebriating, laughing, haunting, wistful, brooding, ancient, ageless, siren land”
