Maybe, maybe not.
The councils will be pumping water into the grounds this week. With all the sun & extra water, the grass will grow...
42+ degrees Thursday / Friday - cant see the mower man working too much... ???
Should revert to 3 divs of 10. 9 x 2 day games = 18 days.
Start 3rd week of October. Dont want to hear about people saying we dont want to miss 2 weeks of cricket. Most people wouldnt give a rats, and it gives those whose play/involved with footy a small break in between rather than missing...
,
Would you please care to elaborate on who Bundoora let go due to egos...???
We have lost 5 from the semi final last year.
Janan Daniel - opening bowler - did his knee playing footy - will be back 2014.
Wayne Wunhym - 43 y.o who has retired.
Brad Powell - shoulder op pre season. Out injured...
The wicketkeeper who made a duck is not captain this year...:rolleyes:
Mill Park will be very strong in their top 2 grades.
Batting is strong in both.
Bowling is just your average /steady attack but if you make 270+ every week, wont be an issue.
Will be interesting to see. Based on last year, they would want MP to go up, but given that it is Mill Park, anything is possible.
I would bet only bottom 2 go down but will be interesting...
OMG !! How many times do we need to hear this dribble...?? The Barclay shield issue was over 10 years ago !!
Get your facts right and we will listen. Not sure why you have even sucked me into another response....? Maybe coz its 1:30am on a Saturday night when I have read this .
Fact 1- In...
Helps to have majority of DVCA grounds committee come from Eltham. :p
Now i am not saying Yulong is good enough for the GF, but we were apparently rated no.16 on the list...!!!
Apparently one of the umpires made comment about the poor state of the wicket from a game he umpired 4 weeks ago and...
The Jika comp many years ago (maybe still?) had a rule to prevent this happening whereby if you had played 7 matches in a grade, you were not permitted to play in any of the grades lower than that grade thereafter. You could go up but not down.
The issue is then if you played the first 7 in say...
Agreed Tongs, only issue, and as you said it is the clubs fault, we are going to have 6 teams relegated from C grade this year (old Money reserve) into D grade next year who are clubs 2's.

Bundoora
Whittlesea
at the moment these 7 will be re-graded into D grade next season , barring any outrights in last round. Only Bundoora is the clubs 3rd XI playing...
wowee... tipping the calculators and mobile phones might be out late on day 2... sides needing make another 20 runs without a wicket or take another wicket... potentially after result decided...
Rumour File - what is this story i have heard coming out of the Epping v Mernda clash this year...?
I have heard this about 4th hand so dont shoot the messenger - rumour I heard was that an Epping player (could have been an ex mernda player) was seen buring a Mernda club shirt and posting it...
Coloured Clothing - What are peoples thoughts for wearing coloured tops in seniors next season like the juniors?
I think the coloured tops look great on the kids and we should follow suit into seniors now.
yep agreed, I raised this with the Exec back in July when it was first discussed. I made it clear - well I thought I did - that you have to notify clubs then of any pending structure changes - not well into the season.
However right decision will be reached but wrong way about doing it again...
