This year I was invited to judge at the 2014 Royal Adelaide Show. It was a great opportunity and privilege and I highly commend the South Australian stud breeders on the quality and presentation of their sheep. The South Australian breeders are very passionate about dual purpose merinos and actively promote them. The highlight of the show was judging the Medium Wool Poll Merino 2 Tooth Class with a record 46 entries.
