Werribee is a jumbled mess in Bowls Victoria division 1.
The Bees are losing at home and winning on the road.
They are knocking off top sides and losing to those at the bottom.
Yet for all their inconsistency, the Bees are somehow sitting in second place.
Bees skip Snowy Barker labelled his side’s season to date as “bizarre”.
“Bar Altona [which is undefeated on top of the ladder], it’s a pretty even competition,” he said.
The margin for error is getting tighter for the Bees after a disappointing 90-86 loss to lowly Eltham on the road on Saturday.
The Bees are 4-3 for the season but need to get their act together as they are just a single win ahead of the side sitting in seventh.
They picked up two rinks over Eltham, with Jayden Christie and Rob Panton winning.
Mick O’Neil was pipped by one, but Barker suffered a brutal loss.
“Our rink was just terrible,” Barker said. “I’ll be trying to redeem myself next week after two losses.”
Werribee hosts bottom-of-the-ladder Berwick at Chirnside Park on Saturday.
It’s another of those games in which the Bees will start as hot favourites.
It will give them a chance to add some normality to what has been so far a mixed-bag season.
In division 2, Hoppers was soundly beaten 105-51 on a hellish visit to Flemington-Kensington on Saturday.
Meanwhile, Christie’s good form continued on Sunday when he won the metro west under-25 singles title.
The Bees skip will represent metro west in the knockout stages against the best players from the other groups in the state.
