    BARCLAY SHIELD 2023/24

    Unless they are chasing coin , I don't reckon any of this is true. Who are the 3 rumoured to retire ? They all seemed pretty young to me

    That's a bit harsh. Great game by both sides. Twists and turns for 2 full days. Didn't think Heidelberg bowled badly at all just Macleod batted really well in first 2 hours to set up the win.

    You said Thompson was best player in comp in Money thread. I assume you meant best player in Money Shield. The first LBW - when you hear two noises from the boundary, it generally means bat involved so it seemed the ump was sucked in by a great appeal. Also, heidelberg excitement at getting T...

    Good win by Macleod. Best side won on the day. Nice way to win the match with a big 6 over square leg Heidelberg would be gutted but can never leave out Macleod as long as T Wise is there. He's a gun

    Good write up. Interesting that Johnson batted at 9, faced 6 balls for 20 runs then got caught on the 7th. Looks like he is just going to chance his hand at quick runs which means he will offer some chances . Heidelberg bowlers might be a bit too smart for that.

    Crimes was doing it easy against Renwick and Fotinopolous- gave his wicket away to a loose shot but him and Pote were on their way . Villani dropped very early in the cordon as well thought they were going to get the runs until they kept playing bad shots and losing too many wickets. Heidelberg...

    Nearest the pin wins. The poll was correct with heidelberg getting most votes followed by Macleod. Should be a cracker next week

    How to fix DVCA 2024/2025 onwards.

    A bit of information wouldn't go astray. Put a sign up , something, anything so that people who did attend would be more understanding of the situation, as unfortunate as it is.

    How about letting the public know of the situation then there won't be a problem. No explanation doesn't exactly help

    How to fix DVCA 2024/2025 onwards.

    Went to watch nephew play his GF on Wednesday night at Banyule. Clubrooms closed , only access to the rear if you needed to have a piss, and no lights so you needed your phone to ensure a good aim. Do they not pay the bills down there ? Really piss poor effort from Banyule in my opinion...

    Heidelberg too consistent for mine. All other finalists have good and bad moments but any of them winning wouldn't surprise either

    MONEY SHIELD 23/24

    I'm intrigued. Has the bowling dropped a bit in Money Shield ? Blokes like Bubis, and Jezensek with good batting averages despite being in their 50's

    Yeah, I miscalculated. The retired hurt - doesn't that count as an out ?
