    Wise words Hawk Eye. If you don't have players, you don't have clubs. Retention is the absolute key, not finding the next Will Pucovski. He'll be found no matter what format is played. Longer formats can be reserved for Premier Cricket or even subbies who for some reason still believe the...

    Anyone else surprised playing additional overs did not get up? Even 40 to 50? I could not believe the majority of clubs did not support a hybrid style format. Not sure it will do anything for development of the game with bowlers restricted and batsmen who take a bit of time to get going shunnted...

    IMO, it will largely depend on two things; If clubs have a war chest and if they pay players. If it's the latter they will struggle. DVCA will reduce fees. Councils will provide financial relief (they offered this to NFNL clubs) so, a match ball costs $55, umpires $150 arvo tea $10 (if allowed)...

    CV agreed to delay the season at all levels to accommodate senior AND junior footy. We will not be playing until local footy has finished at every level. In 2020, October will be footy finals and races. And for what its worth, I do not think pushing cricket finals into April will work at all...

    Please. You must be from one of the those clubs who always feels they're owed something.

    Dvca - How Do We Make It Better?

    I don't the NMCA is a dead duck at all. I think what's happening is there is a bit of divide occuring where the DVCA has bigger established clubs and perhaps take their cricket more seriously. The NMCA absolutely has a place for clubs who view cricket more socially. It just depends on where your...

    You would be assuming they are only paid incentives. I think you will find, most blokes who get paid, will get a base match fee or yearly fee PLUS incentives.
