Any thoughts on the finals venues?

Fingers crossed a couple of former players get back on board the Raider train soon. Peabo will help install a winning culture that's been missing the last few years. Respect isn't built overnight but some quality signings and some improved efforts on and off the field will help.

Great to see the raider boys having a strong and united committee on board for the up coming season, with a bit of luck a few ex players return and the boy's can string a couple of wins together next year!

No offence is intended on the blokes ability or personally, they are good fellas and we wish them nothing but the best but we are talking about 1st grade arrivals/departures not blokes who play 2nds or 3rds who are leaving clubs. Blokes in the lower grades are an integral part of any club's make...

Do 2nds and 3rds players really count as major losses now? You blokes really can't get enough of ragging out our club. Congrats to Daisy and Steve Coonan for leading our club through a turbulent time, I'm sure we'll come out on the other side the better for it.

Sadly very true, the club entrusted him with almost full control of our on field recruiting/development and next thing he's out the door. He can stick his #raidernation fair up his arse, I think that makes his 10th club in 10 years, nice enough bloke but no consideration for the club he's burnt...

I think a coach of a CAW club would be better off pulling his head in and staying off all social media if he doesn't have anything positive to say about his own club/association, I've got no doubt Mick Erdeljac would happily debate the draw setup. If any club needs a social media ban it's...

Liam is a talented cricketer and a fine young man as is his family and I've got no doubt we'll see him return to his HOME club sooner rather than later once any issues are sorted out. Like any of our former players they are always welcome back to Birallee park.:)

I think Trent Ball is in a completely different stratosphere when it comes to the most disliked players in the comp.:rolleyes: BTW great to see Griff back on board, hopefully he tears the Doggies a new one on Saturday.:)

Gone dead quiet on here, surely someone can be bagging Bally, Marmo or Erdeljac out:D

Daniels/Markham (a decade ago) is a pretty far reach to have a go at us for recruiting those 'types' but as we've seen our best players/juniors leave post relegation (Dixon, Lodding, Spencer, B.Holzer, Bradsworth) and then post promotion (Head, C.Holzer, and Griffiths who came back) the club has...

I don't think the club is under any illusions that he'll be a long term player given his past record but if we can get 2-3 good years service out of him that would be a bonus. I'm sure after next season Belvoir will come knocking on his door as they do with most of our players:rolleyes:

JWM has been announced as our new coach for next season with hopefully a few new signings to come. As for Dicko I'd love to see him back in raiders colours again and go back to where it all began. Go you raider boys!:)

As I said it was only a question. Obviously it would be played on grounds with hard wickets but Emerald oval, xavier 2, Noreuil Park,willow pk 2 and Collings Park would all be suitable for use and no doubt Sunday's would be the only day suitable to play. Not everyone is a footy head but the...

Do they run similar competitions in regional areas in country Victoria?

I see this thread has gone dead so I thought I might get it going. I see in Melbourne they run a mid year cricket competition call MYCA. They play one day games once a fortnight with the other weekend a reserve day in case of washouts. They went from 8 teams 4 years ago to over 50 now, would...

Apparently he had an altercation with a North Albury supporter and was dropped to the 2's and took it out on our 14 year old kids hitting them to all parts of the ground. Pretty poor form Middo surely suspending him would have more effect than helping your 2's take top spot on the...

I don't think the Provincial clubs would of stood for a bye so it was either make or break for us to be promoted I think. Valid point there about our depth there runout, we do have some great kids coming through especially in b grade but our A grade stocks our a bit weak but the boys are going...

Sad to see Ryland head off to a rival club but we wish him all the best. He's come through our juniors through to captaining our club and we were pinning our hopes on young blokes like himself to make us competitive this season. If he thinks going elsewhere can better him as a cricketer half his...

Did the Toe Ball and the other 'legends' of the association get on board to run the comp for the 8 'elite' teams, rather than all 19 senior clubs between both comps? It seems only the old ABCA clubs/players are having a whinge about this, did any of the district clubs/players sook about an...
