Frosty back to Malvern by the looks

Paul Amy @PaulAmy375 · Sep 16 2020 The 131st AGM for @SubbiesCricket mainstay Caulfield CC was staged tonight, and club great Shaun Richardson is back for a second stint at president, replacing Pat Lennon, prez for six years. ‘Richo’ has served the Fields mightily, on and off the ground.

Hard to believe the ex Caulfield Pres story hasn't raised any interest on here, feels like the Bigcricket forum has gone the way of the 8 ball over. Made me think of some favourite posts over the journey... 1. Ben Wood's somewhat incoherent ramblings 2. Anything posted by Weapo 3. Turfie single...

Turfie Turfie Turfie, so a comp that has been around 150 years is now copying one that has been around 5 minutes, right, OK. CSB is pretty much VTCA South on it's own now that CV have pulled their $100K admin man. I guess the VSDCA could be the Championship Division for each region post 21/22 if...

Maybe CSB could merge with the VTCA, a South Division would compliment their current North an West Divisions...

Herrick came back from Tassie late in the season and from memory landed in their lap, don't think they chased him. He wasn't fully fit at the time as the numbers show. He might have got a match fee at best so wouldn't have cost them much at all.

Don't know if McGuiness is playing on. Sturrock back to Willi.

In fairness, don't think they have had a new recruit since Mick Allen. Might be more a case of having stored up some "acorns" and now investing

Edinburgh had turf laid over a year ago, not a hardwicket club anymore at 1st XI level.

Hi Westie, yes, hadn't been much activity this season so been watching without feeling the need to join in. This issue has irked me though. The fact that the Merc and the DVCA have taken the contrary view to the CA recommendation really just creates more questions on how the VSDCA and many...

Turfie IMHO cancelling a cricket game is inconsistent with other ongoing activities that are currently considered completely acceptable. Playing cricket, in the open, keeping your distance, would be far lesser risk than catching a plane, going to the supermarket, having a beer at the pub, I...

So apparently the Merc are going ahead with cricket this weekend. I don't disagree with them.

What is it with you blokes and Kingston Hawthorn? Did you try out and get cut? They are a Premier Cricket Club (this is a Subbies forum) and they clearly aren't merging with anyone. I deadset feel dumber from reading these posts.

Ummmmmmm, that's what they do now!

Agree it's disappointing to hear they are struggling, but who would have thought appoint Romain Grenville would come back to bite them! Would have better off investing their $$$ in an ambitious young coach in development phase who could have grown with the young group they have. Ideally someone...
