In fairness, Darren Ward is on the DVCA Executive, last year was his first year on. For what my opinion is worth, Maxwell was a far better President than the present so its not a bad thing at all if he is back in the fold. I just wondered why when he did vow never to return. Couldn't agree with...

I am not potting anyone, I just asked if a past President, and yes what I heard was it was Maxwell, was back in the fold again after he walked away when the NCL failed, vowing not to return. As for the others you mention, I have absolutely no idea. Thanks for your replies but still unknown if he...

I was told comp, but it is second hand and why I asked. However I believe his origins were from your neck of the woods, so to speak. So if its true, any idea why?

Yes still waiting. Once again DVCA have dropped the ball, no updates on their website since 1st August. I guess nothing is happening ?? Am I hearing right that a past President that bailed when the NCL failed is back in the fold again? If so, why???

Back on how to make the comp better. I know I have commented on the website here before but apart from it having a new look seems nothing else has changed. As had a look today, no 2nd day scores of the main Shield G/Finals. No team of the year or mention of who won the various medals in the...

So you want them to be amoung the elite clubs of the DVCA straight away? Thats a big ask. And what current DVCA have 50k in their operating account?

I hadnt heard of this until I read your post so spoke to a few of our vets guys over a beer tonight at the rooms. They had nothing but disgust in what the dvca have done and how unfair and unbalanced they have made the vets top 2 grades this year. As they put it, its like last years top Barclay...

Couldn't agree more, it seems Heidelberg saw their weakness was batting so went and got Whitch who is a gun bat as evidenced by 132. 280 is a lot of runs so hard to see Eltham chasing that down without Chrimes x2 and Lamont

A final word on the fixtures. Really.....only the top 3 grades out on the Monday before round 1. What are grades B,C,D,E meant to do this weekend, drive around the suburbs looking for a ground with stumps set up and an opposition side doing the same thing??????

Barclay - Riverside, D'Creek, Epping, Macleod .......... with Diamo to win the flag over Riverside Money - Plenty, Eltham, Heidelberg, Lower Plenty ..... with Eltham to beat Plenty and finally win one. Mash - Greensborough, Panton Hill, Thomastown Utd, Hurstbridge .......With Greensborough...

This is rubbish, every season I can recall grounds arent available at the start of the season but fixtures have always been out before the end of August. So why dont they release the fixtures and if they have to make ground changes everyone will understand. Not releasing anything and not saying...

I dont think brutal was referring to the councils when he said "I suspect this is what happens when you have people in charge that aren't clued into the requirements of sporting clubs". :)

I wasnt aware you were on the DVCA executive Brutal. Oh no wait, you cant be as you just communicated something about cricket in the DVCA!!!!

Brutal what is the new facility and when is it expected to be completed?

What fixtures ??? I've heard that this season is to be more like "self-serve".....you choose who you want to play when and where. Will probably work better than whats being offered at present.........which is NOTHING !!!....unbelievable!
