Great thread, I bet the post round drinks with the GM team are a crack and a half.

Jezza, how would you describe your swing?
If I had to have a go, I'd probably say something like this...
"The set up position is textbook but it doesn't last long. Back slowly on the inside, reverse pivot at the top, then throughout the downswing the right foot remains stuck to the turf as if held down by a lead boot. The arms then go round the body to stave off the slice. In the finish position (and about 3 seconds after the ball has left the clubface), Jezz finally musters the strength to move his weight towards the target and he finally returns to a textbook finish."
Too harsh?

Arses to Wentworth....this is much more entertaining
Just emailed Hank Haney to get a precis of Neil Tappin's swing and here's what I got back:-
"Clearly Neil, despite no longer being a precocious teenager, is still far too wrapped up in the whole distance thing for his own good. His overwhelming desire to hit the ball into the next county sometimes catches up with his Kenneth Ferrie-esque 3/4 backswing and everything arrives back at the ball far too soon resulting in a monumental block (despite claiming to own the world's straightest driving club). His proximity to the green is not always good for his sometimes fragile chipping game either, where I understand he has been know to mix the dunch of deceleration and 'head-up' knife with almost gay abandon from inside 60 yards."
This just in from Bob Rotella too "... Neil needs to work on his anger issues and remember that golf is not a game of expletive-fuelled club slamming."

Is this a bare knuckle fight or a game of golf?

Having played with Jezz many times I can agree with the comment. Very good short game - should/could be lower than 6.

Jezz when you say you model yourself on Kenny Perry, is that why you eat so many pies?
Don't worry lads if it all kicks off at GM Towers I'm sure the Rugby World boys next desks down will be there to join in any ruck and maul. The angling guys further down can always use any old fishing line to tie down anyone getting too out of hand and those girls down at Marie Clare can get a good feature on sport and neanderthal male posturing!
Personally my money would be on Mike. Short, bit of weight behind him (low centre of gravity) and probably not adverse to the old sly dig south of the border (well it'll be hard for him to get up to the loft heights of Tappers chin). I can see Jezz as a gravely old time queensbury man and I'm not sure the younger pups would have any ethics at all when push came to shove (and Tappers technique may be found wanting)

Now this is of course going into a whole new territory of "who could have who at GM"
when I first joined GM there were a lot of Walter the Softy types and I'd have fancied my chances against all of them...
different ball game now
Jezza - couldn't hit a pensioner
Tappers - driving prowess hints as hidden power in those long arms but but as with his golf game under sustained pressure I think he'd crumble, curl up into a ball and scream "not the face, not the face"
O'Hagan - very mild mannered but think deep down he's got a bit in the locker.
Weston - back street fighter. would need to turn out his lights early doors or else he'd definetly bottle you when your back was turned
Clarkey - Essex bruiser. Wouldn't have a pop unless I had his cricket bat
Narey - Might not have the strength in depth his physical stature suggests but I don't want to get into the situation where I have to hope he is the first a 6ft 3 Middlesborough skinhead with a permanent 5 o clock shadow to give it trainers when the chips are down

Harris: a good wrestler so if you stick and move, jab and keep him at arm's length, there should be no trouble.
Michael is the one you want to look out for: definitely prone to the odd twitch-up although he does carry a touch of the glass jaw and his rather wafer-thin neck means the headlock is your best option.
Best to stay out of Tappers' way just after he has lipped out on a four-footer, which is quite often.
