Re: Eastern Cricket Association 2010/11
Having played with bakes at North Balwyn, i am going to confidently silence you all and say that dilip fernando is the best import of any ECA player. Would have played for sri lanka if he was 10 years younger. I'm looking forward to seeing what this young...
Re: Eastern Cricket Association 2010/11
sorry Terry, it got a little out of hand. On the topic of spin bowlers in ECA i think the reason they aren't used so much is because clubs generally feel it's more beneficial to have a part time spinner for the extra bat???
I can't think of any teams...
Re: Eastern Cricket Association 2010/11
Parsons is an arrogant cheat. The only good bloke in that team is the captain, the rest of them are hopeless muppets (gartner).
Re: Eastern Cricket Association 2010/11
Terry i totally agree with you. But there is a massive difference between the standard of bats in dunstan and A. A turf you can bowl the ball 6 inches outside off, be the fastest or slowest bowler in the league and you are correct "the batsmen will make a...
Re: Eastern Cricket Association 2010/11
sorry just to add to that last point. if there are any other young (under 23 bowlers) on this thread. Does it really frustrate you when you get a "name" out and the older guys are really encouraging and almost impressed like they didn't think you could do...
Re: Eastern Cricket Association 2010/11
to be honest i don't rate any of these older players in the eca. Most bowlers are under 23 and if they aren't they are generally slightly overweight work horses (hargraeves) who just bowl a consistent line and length which batsmen are too scared to play...
Re: Eastern Cricket Association 2010/11
Thank god an aggressive statement. I'm totally with you Chaz, I'd much rather see ECA cricket as a stepping stone to premier cricket then a retirement home. I'm looking very forward to having a crack at Porter, Tongue, Wright. Out of curiosity what are...
Re: Eastern Cricket Association 2010/11
who exactly are these "predigious young talents"? Which team's set to have the youngest average age this year? and is that a benefit in the world of dunstan cricket?
Re: Eastern Cricket Association 2010/11
On revision of Porters statistics. He struggled to make over 40 apart from those two big knocks, I'm not doubting that he isn't a handy cricketer. But he's evidence that it only takes one good ball. Dunstan cricket won't be the walk in the park that he's...
Re: Eastern Cricket Association 2010/11
Just researched Scott Porter. I feel sorry for dunstan bowlers, the man made over 600 runs in the premiers last year including a 200 and 150. Does anybody know who won the dunstan medal? its almost impossible to find on the internet.

On the topic of recruiting. Apart from rumours of Bulleen pulling a few ex-premier players, have any other clubs looked beyond the local spectrum?
Re: Quickest ECA Bowlers
i was watching a game a few months ago at hawthorn, north balwyn had one really sharp bowler, quicker then most other people i've seen around the traps.
