GBWGC Member Profiles

 

Graham Little
Aka: Litts; Dainty G; Big Breezy
Founding member of the GBWGC and revered and feared club President. The thinking man's thinking man who brings wise and reasoned balance to the club's affairs.
Though he has had a limited number of games over recent seasons, he still plays of
f one of the lowest handicaps and has proven to be the club's best and most consistent player, winning half of the Consistency Awards whilst a regular competitor. Loves the heat of battle and has come out on top in major events. Won the inaugural Winter Trophy (2006) and Mornington Masters (2008) and has triumphed in 2 Binningup Opens. Dominated the Apres Golf putting and, despite only rare appearances since 2012–13, has the fifth highest number of club award successes.

  Graeme McLennan
Aka:
Macca the Pace Cracker
Co-founder of the club and currently the club's principal money man. Maintains very healthy club finances in intricate detail, usually on the back of postage stamps or stray pieces of paper.
Has had an unbelievable run of bad luck with injuries (" . . carved up and stitched more often than a cadaver"), missing all of the 2007–08 season and the first games of 2008–09 before creaming the field in his first game back. Inaugural winner of the President's Trophy and Robin Dalby Sea View Championship. Fastest player and fastest tongue on the course.

Dennis Scoble
Aka:
Scobes
Renowned for his cool, logical mind and classic dry humour, Scobes has also become revered for his talent as the club's only licenced bookie. His Form Guides are legendary as are his betting odds on major club events, but has yet to make a killing given he has his own inside information. A dedicated "pop" who skilfully juggles golf with family commitments.
Inaugural Club Champion (2000–2001) and three-times Match Play Champion, has also scored in most other major events. Sometimes affectionately referred to as the "Silent Assassin" given his casual, no-nonsense, subtle off-the-back-foot swinging style that quietly amasses those consistent no-fuss wins.

  Robin Dalby
Aka:
Snout
The club's born-again non-vegetarian though the slight build of this seasoned performer would belie that. Has had an insatiable desire, in stints as club Secretary, to write copious amounts of drivel in weekly reports. Also loves doodling with desktop publishing and, as a result, has gleefully forced this website upon the membership.
His swing has been described as "graceful" though, in recent seasons, has struggled somewhat, with performances more "disgraceful". However still managed 3 wins in each of the Spring Classic and Christmas Cup. Inaugural winner of the Burswood Cup and third in the number of overall award wins.

  Tom Joseph
Aka:
Little Master; Harbijan, Top End
One of the club's two "younger" members. Famous off course for his curry puffs and one-time silky hockey skills. Brings common sense and well-grounded ideas and innovations with colourful flair and an infectious sense of humour. Corporate ABS high flyer which has limited his appearances in recent seasons. Despite this, our nuggety and persistent golfer comes in sixth in the number of awards won. Inaugural winner of 4 awards including 2 Majors (Spring Classic; Christmas Cup).

  Ron Allardice
Aka:
Ex Master Blaster; Chalk 1, Ronzo
GBWGC's elder statesman and generous benefactor who, with son Steve, has facilitated unprecedented mobility to the club's golfing calendar with tournaments based in Binningup and the Mornington Peninsula. A veritable ball of energy and prolific ideas man whose many (and humorous) fines and other novelty fundraising ventures have left the members broke and club finances booming. One time principal shareholder in the Clan Campbell distillery but now imbibes on softer options.
Powerful golfer both in physical and vocal ability. Inaugural winner of the prestigious Binningup Mug, has wins in most award categories, particularly Match Play and Long Drive, and currently runner-up in the number of club awards won.

Steve Allardice
Aka:
Iron Man; Wood Man; Chalk 2
Proud Platinum Sponsor of the club. Despite many business and family commitments, made good time on the golf course as well as very generous and greatly appreciated personal and material contributions. Has a love of fast cars as the Valium-popping Secretary can testify after various riparounds in Steve's (one time) flashy lime green rocket. Very successful business operator in a highly competitive field. Also a proven successful golfer in a highly competitive field with 4 award wins – all of them Majors, including three highly prized Mornington Masters wins (2009/2011/2013). Finally graduated from ferocious irons off the tee to equally ferocious woods. Business commitments sadly prevented him from playing after the 2016-17 season but he is still keen to continue when his situation changes.

  Graham Walker
Aka:
Walks; Phantom
A man for all sporting seasons, with cricket, softball, tennis (highly credentialed) and golf listed in his CV. Very committed clubman (not to any institution though) but tends to get distracted at major away events by stray SODUKO puzzles.
Made the transition to golf in spectacular style as anyone who has witnessed those rocket-fuelled drives and long irons will testify. His win in the Eclectic (2007–08) was a hint of things to come from this big hitter confirmed over the seasons by most wins as Club Champion and Masters Jacket winner.

  Chris Jackson
Aka:
Jacko; Tundra Terror
Chris has been a long time member of the club but his employment meant playing most of his earlier golf in outback Russia where he served as the club's Cultural Attache in such unpronouncable places as Krasnoyarsk, Strezhevoy and Zapolyarny. Jacko has settled permanently in the club's home state and permanently into retirement. He's making his mark as the club low handicapper and the current leader in number of club awards won. He kindly donated the original Mornington Masters trophy.

  Graham Squance
Aka:
Squancey
Squancey joined in the 2011–12 season. Arrived at the club after a true 'journeyman' life having lived in Perth, Melbourne, Brisbane, Russia, London and the United States. Now happily settled in WA and into some competitive golf, impressing with both Consistency and Eclectic wins and successes in the Joondalup Classic (2012–13) and the Binningup Open (2013–14). Turning in power performances both on and off the course. More successes to come.

  Brian Pink
Aka:
Pinky
As Australian Statistician, Brian has had a long association with most now-ABS-retired GBWGC members. A keen golfer, he had limited time to groove his swing until retirement finally caught up with him. His first club appearance was at the 2009 Mornington Masters, an event he has always been keen to attend. Now residing in the sunny state, he's a regular and competitive member notching up his first major win in 2018 – the prestigious Joondalup Classic. Is a two-times Match Play Champion. Expect a lot more from this keen student of the game.
