any thoughts on what teams and players to look for in each div?

[breeno]

My team Rivergum, look to be in trouble in 17s div 1, Bundoora Park in 17s Div 1 are the ones to watch out for, not sure about other age levels.

Too many players to list, although C.Yates looks out for the season i think.

finally, this thread is showing signs of moving, look out for Paul Niklas to have a big season with bat and ball for northern socials in u/15s div 2, most guys in our grade can barely play dud spin, let alone paul's quality tweakers

Faced Paul last year in seniors, not too bad, but he'll have to improve to have big games against the better teams.

Bundoora park will be strong
but losing Corey Yates will be a huge loss and the bowling attack isnt to chop Holy trinity watch out for and camrea might be the under acheivers for 08/09 with many not rating them but look out for holy trinity

[mrjika09]

Having a good look at u17s division 1
the top 5 willl defently be
Holy Trinity
Bundoora Park
Camrea
Keon Park
Preston Druids

Trinity will have a strong side with the likes of maratos,scott, turner watkins
Bundoora Parks main players Fox, Newell and Sansonotti will have to carry the side this year and with sturgle a little bit with the loss of corey yates but sutton-ryan could fill his shoes very easy
Camrea have their stong players but have to get it right with Altis the key and Zakkour, Pham, Vozinidis making runs week in week out. With the help of Di Battista M it boosts their batting line up
Keon Park the look ok but their fielding is very week but if Ferraro, Pisano, Brown and Russo make runs theirs no chance of not ruling the out of finals. The russo brothers are the key to KP this year.
Preston Druidsthe under achievers really have a ponit to prove this year and if Halabi can bat if as he was playing jika sheild then watch out. They also have Wilson, Ramadan, Dufficy, Reed and Mistou who can all chip in

so this year division 1 looks to be a really even comptiton

u15s Divison 2
On a 5 team divsion and it will not be to strong but will have 3 sides that will go at it all year to get the glory
These 3 will fight it out this year
Camrea
Socials
Holy Trinity

Camrea Taipans have some stong players will be hard to get through. Di Battista M will be the key to the Taipans and Jai robinson and Kyle Turnbull will be the two behind Di Battista to lead the taipans in 08/09 after a disapointing finals campain last year.

Northern Socials should have another stong year with their squad runners up last year and look to go 1 better. Niklas, Simmons and Brennan will be the key to socails and if hayden love returns to the socials then watch out should be hard 2 beat.

Holy Trinitydont hear much about them but 2 wins from 2 look good and have some good little players with Philpott being the stand oout in the start of the season. Have a hard job to knock off Socials and Taipans but if they play some good cricket they could be them selves as grand final candidates


Camrea V Socials will be the match which decides the GF favorites and will see where the sides sit

two things to point out, haydn love is back, in fact he never left and is in top form with the ball claiming 5 in the first 2 games, and trinners can't be 2 from 2 as we knocked them off in the first round
