Torrence answers critics with masterful shooting display.
The regulators were back to their best in last nights win over Animals United (37-29).
A quick start saw them up 14-4 and looking to do extreme damage before the Animals made the scoreboard a little more respectable at the half, 21-12.
Ben Torrence was exceptional nailing three 3-pointers and creating baskets for teammates.
Roobs and Matt Owens were solid down low and never stopped running.
It was when Animals United came within two points midway through the second half that the Regulators knuckled down and played their trademark air-tight defence. A stop was made and Torrence, who was on fire throughout, nailed a timely three-pointer to extend the lead to five.
'Apparently I copped a spray from the media', Ben said at the after game press session.
'Word travels fast in this town. I didn't read it myself, but whatever two-bit journo you are - fuckin' eat that you deadbeat knocker. Don't forget I took on the thugs in the scallop industry and won...'
So there's some life left in this Regulator unit. With a bye coming up and a few niggling injuries to heal - the least they can do is make the teams up the top shit their daks a bit.

McDougal the best captian in the league?
I have had a quite a few captains in in my illustrious career and although the results are not on the board; IE recent finals campaigns, I still maintain Andrew McDougal is the best captain I have played under.
It is the behind the scenes organisation and the on-field leadership that stands him apart from the rest.
Having had a stint earlier in the year playing in the Italian league, Andrew has returned to the Regulators side with renewed vigour and although the finals are all but a pipe dream, the question remains, would you let this man take to the trenches.
This player would answer every time, without a doubt !
its sad
