Interesting looking at the results for the Australian National (Bridge) Championships, currently being held in Fremantle, WA. SA's Youth Team have lost only to Victoria, and are a little ahead of NSW, who have only lost to SA. They'll have another two full round robins before the Finals.

In the Women's, SA are placed third, with Queensland and NSW yet to play in the first of two round robins (they get more state teams than the Youth). There are certain psychological play traits showing up in the datums there - which I'm sure I would not be seeing if I didn't know the players (from various teams) in whom they're showing up, so far. *wince*

The Seniors' have Victoria and WA yet to play in this round robin, and have played the Bye (which Queensland and Victoria are currently trailing). I don't recognise the names of any of the players in the teams to which SA have had small losses (two of four matches).

Then comes the Open. SA is coming third, having lost to NT, with QLD and ACT (which [livejournal.com profile] mabraham is playing in) to go, this round. They trail QLD and Victoria by 9.3 and 8.8 VPS, respectively.

Today's Bulletin also has the interesting note under the list of team members: "The names of all members of this team have not yet been submitted". OK, Colts Team, which is usually as many school-age Youth players as can get there and aren't in other teams, and can be anything up to twenty players in a very bad year...
