Maybe the DVCA should reimburse clubs the umpires fees just to turn-up and tell us it's too wet. No S@#t ! Looks like Hurstbridge vs Laurimar was the only shield game to get a start

It's easy to peel off 12 clubs and say Nath is a 'hat-collector' Essendon & Northcote (& Preston to a degree) is a young bloke having a 'crack' at turf cricket - at a better standard than DVCA Nightcliff is 'Top End' cricket and let's get rid of Diamond Valley & Metro North We're down to 6...

Absolutely - Amazing finals effort 62 Overs - 32 Maidens - 13 Wickets for 75 Runs Ridiculous numbers and durability over a 7 day block Was only contesting the 'trying conditions' 👍

Trying conditions Saturday ?

What adjustments would you propose ? The weather is the weather - not much can be done about that Play finals a week or two before ?

Comical fixturing Having said that - halfway through the penultimate round . . . Laurimar only have 2 wins for the season and Plenty only have 2 losses Head to Head - Laurimar 2 / Plenty 1 🤔

Any reason Lower Eltham batted Hone & Bubis at 9 & 10 (if Play HQ reads accurate) ? Not interested in a home final ?

Mill Park still sitting 5th - surely not !

It will be interesting to see if the teams that played each other in R1 & 2 play 'return one-dayers' after Christmas Stay tuned on this one 🤔

Good to see the 'F & G' Grade fixtures now done E Grade next ? Shield Grades the Thursday before R5 maybe 🤔

Wasn't last season !

What the go if Greensborough WIN - They go up to Money Half the team leaves to get Old Paradians back up & running Greensy go up weaker ? Old Paradians start off in Mash ? Or are Parade done ?

Might have jumbled L10 & L15 mate But see what you mean Good chance for a couple of clubs to set-up their season - 6 x Home games before Christmas (eg. Riverside & Heidelberg)

Oops - I'll try again Agree - must be hard - BUT . . . . . MONEY Last years remaining 3 finalists play each other once - Bun Utd/Bun Park/Monty Lalor Stars & Eltham play all three twice Teams play 2 x 2 dayers against a couple of sides - & 2 x 1 dayers against another A couple of clubs only...

Step up from B Grade

Heidelberg & Hurstbridge both won the toss and batted - and LOST

Their 2's won a flag on the weekend by 1 run Probably more of a highlight

Hardly carried on when given LBW - bit of a point to the pad

Good to hear it sounds like the ump is on the mend I'm sure all umpires are ecstatic to be officiating an extra 10 overs on a hot Saturday afternoon OH&S

Are the overs for Shield Grades locked-in yet - 40/45 ?
