Looking at the clubrooms down at Ruthven Street ( which are massive btw) they're not going to be ready anytime soon, so it appears Macleod will be heading back to Banyule flats. That will be 2 years without playing at home for them

Have heard on the grapevine a couple of handy bowlers heading down to the flats

So just for the record, how many of those juniors played in the premierships in Jika ?

Most clubs aren't kicking back with envy about 12 Jika flags. Clubs like Rosanna are sipping beers and are proud of how many juniors from years gone by had just participated in a winning grand final . I wonder how many Rosebank juniors played in the Money shield final on the weekend , just for...

We are all envious of your Jika premierships

Its alright Dougie, those 2 Money shield flags will sit proudly behind the bar I'm sure, along with the Barclay spoon they collected season prior.

If rosanna had gone to nmca instead of dvca, that record of 10 flags in 20 years wouldn't even exist. No one rates that comp. It's a joke, hence why clubs continue to leave year in, year out

They don't grow on trees - you're right, however I do expect Research to be contending next year in Money shield, and Rosebank perhaps not so much in Barclay

I suppose when a team gets relegated from a higher grade, they are expected to win the grand final in the year following.

You can always bank on Rosanna batting all day for something around the 200 mark. They've been like that since Jesus was nailed to the cross. Now it all comes down to which Bundoora turns up to bat. They could pass them 4 down , or get rolled for 100

Yeah, more than likely at Eltham

One of riversides batsman was given out in the first innings at the 6 second mark on frogbox, batsman didn't leave the pitch until the 20 second point just staring at the umpire. Embarrasing tactics

NEW have passed 190 twelve times out of 14 . I know finals are different, but they have some decent form with the bat in relation to the total they are chasing. Interesting chase tomorrow. Riverside are gonski. They're only 16 in front.

Not looking like either to be honest. Finals - throwing up the standard underdogs results

To be fair to Lower Eltham, they have to compete with a few other clubs close by for attracting juniors. Losing Mac Stanley week before season started didn't help their cause either.
