    What's going on at Mulgrave? Forfeited 2 teams last game and have now withdrawn their 3s. Tough times.

    The Deepdene Uniting Cricket Club, based at Hays Paddock in Kew East, is taking applications for the position of Junior Development Coach. Would suit a student looking to earn a few extra dollars. Full details at www.deeners.com

    HDCA Cricket Chat 2010/11

    This is nearly right, but not quite. It is correct that there are two comps - one for turf and one synthetic, but it is possible that a Macgibbon Shield side might be the 2nds or 3rds of a club. There are a number of clubs that field teams in both comps, and from memory it was only a season or...

    Eca 2011/2012

    With all due respect, I'm not sure that I would be making the decision to merge with another comp on the basis of one round of T20 results.

    Hilditch And Chappell Sacked

    Heard a very good suggestion the other day: Ric Charlesworth. Unfortunately not available until after the 2012 Olympics, but I reckon he'd be the right man for the job.

    So where does Ponting bat in this line-up? Personally I'd have him at 4. Watson Hughes Khawaja / Marsh Ponting Clarke Hussey

    Dvca, Nmca And Hdca To Merge

    Not sure that this is entirely true, especially on the junior side of things. It is undeniable that CV have decided to restructure the pathway program in the north (ie merge the Northern and North-East regions) and this impacts on the 3 comps in question. Thus, CV have identified that the...

    Cricket Australia Contracts - 2011/12

    Michael Beer has dropped off the face of the earth too. When he was picked 6 months ago, Hilditch said: "He's a talented left-arm orthodox spinner and hopefully someone who can play a big role in our future." Not that I think he should definitely be there, just shows the erratic selection over...

    Cricket Australia Work

    I notice that CA is taking applications for 'Participation Growth Leaders'. The job description is fairly minimal - does anyone have any idea about what level these jobs are at — are they entry level positions or more senior in terms of salary, conditions etc. Full time, all year round etc...

    Dvca, Nmca And Hdca To Merge

    Nice to get a reasonable reply Bundoora. It isn't Brain Science is it?;) The fact that people were only discussing the implications for the DVCA was precisely the reason for my contribution. Sometimes it pays to have someone point out that there is a broader perspective that needs...

    Dvca, Nmca And Hdca To Merge

    So...only those within the DVCA can comment on the optimum structure for Victorian cricket? Interesting perspective. It's not a matter of intimidation, it's a matter of negotiation. I have a truckload of experience in dealing with councils, and I know that councillors are very focussed on...

    Dvca, Nmca And Hdca To Merge

    I guess you would have prefered that I didn't disclose where I played so that you couldn't play the man? I was merely making the point that a merged competition can strengthen rather than weaken cricket in an area, but I guess you don't want to know that. Perhaps you are afraid of something...

    Dvca, Nmca And Hdca To Merge

    I don't play in the DVCA - in fact I play in the ECA - but my kids have played in the Jika comp. I'm surprised at the level of negativity towards this move by CV. I would like to think that cricketers can look beyond parochial self-interest and try to see the issue from a broader perspective...

    Heavier Bats Better Than Lighter Ones?

    I reckon weight distribution is more important than overall weight when selecting a bat. If you are a front foot straight bat player on turf, then you need a bat with the meat/weight lower on the blade. If you are a cutter and a puller playing on hard decks, then something with the weight a...
