We will be running a bunch of Melbourne Cup Sweeps this year and they are available to join from today. We have $2, $5, $10, and $20 Sweeps with 100% of the entry fee returned in prizes for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and last. Call in and ask the bar staff for the sheets and enter as many as you want. No rush because if we fill one sheet we will just start a new one. Random 🐎 drawn after Field finalised. Giddy Up!

Remember, there is no cash giveaway game tonight. Our lucky number draw starts next Tuesday, the 27th, for $1000. All you have to do is give your name to the bar staff and be in the pub between 7 & 8 Tuesday nights for your chance. 100% free entry. You can still come in tonight for a practice run!

Firstly, thank you to everyone who came along this year to make our Joker Jackpot Tuesday the success it was. A huge thank you to the staff, both kitchen and bar, who were amazing under pressure. Congratulations to Lachie for winning the $20,000 cash. Last night was huge and we thank you all.

Discussion and research around the game indicates that we will not be allowed to run it again in that format. So we will take a couple of weeks off Tuesdays game and revive our Friends of the Pub draw. The registration sheet is now open, just write your name and its done! FREE FOR ALL. Once we have 50 names we will start to draw a random number at a random minute between 7 & 8 pm on Tuesday. The winner must be in the pub to claim the prize. We will start with $1,000 and add $50 every week is not won. Come in and ask for the sheet, write your name and that's it.
