The winners were already confirmed with Marlins taking the title with 2 weeks to spare. There was still much to play for for the other teams &#8211; four teams were in contention to finish in second place and Meerkats were hoping to get off the bottom of the table.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On Tuesday Meerkats played a hard fought draw with Mammoths 2-2 [43-38], a result which didn&#8217;t satisfy either side. It meant that Meerkats were anchored to the bottom and, whilst Mammoths moved into second place, they were unlikely to retain that position after Wednesday&#8217;s matches.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Wednesday saw champions Marlins take on Mavericks and slump to a surprising 1-3 [30-48] defeat. This took Mavericks into second place although they could still be pipped by Mustangs if they could beat Mercenaries in the final match of the season.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Mustangs got off to a great start winning the first two games. Could they take one more game to get the win they needed for second place. Not sure what was in the half-time coffee but Mercenaries came out firing on all cylinders and took both games in the second half to earn a creditable draw 2-2 [42-37]. So in the end Mavericks took the second spot thanks to their great win over Marlins.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Well played to all who took part in the Super League and congratulations to Marlins &#8211; worthy champions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>FINAL TABLE<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5421\" src=\"https:\/\/www.monkstonepetanque.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Round-10-Rev-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"340\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.monkstonepetanque.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Round-10-Rev-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.monkstonepetanque.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Round-10-Rev-1-300x102.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.monkstonepetanque.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Round-10-Rev-1-768x261.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5414\" src=\"https:\/\/www.monkstonepetanque.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Winners-Marlins.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1302\" height=\"1022\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.monkstonepetanque.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Winners-Marlins.jpg 1302w, https:\/\/www.monkstonepetanque.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Winners-Marlins-300x235.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.monkstonepetanque.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Winners-Marlins-1024x804.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.monkstonepetanque.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Winners-Marlins-768x603.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1302px) 100vw, 1302px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>President Mike Jones presents the cup to Marlin&#8217;s captain, Ash Seath<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week we came to the final round of the 2023\/24 Super League.
