    Senior Seconds 09/10

    Re: Senior Seconds 09/10 G day boys, long time. I was battling away down at the ones on the weekend, but from all reports from the twos it was a pretty standard royal park deck. Those of you who have played on ryder will know that the odd ball will keep low, but nothing drastic. According to...

    VTCA Twenty20 Trophy

    Re: VTCA Twenty20 Trophy What's the deal with the seedings(or lack there of)??? Why are senior division teams starting in the first round, with North B1 teams getting a free ride into the second round? Seems pretty stupid that Airport West and Altona North get each other first up.

    Senior Central 2nds

    Re: Senior Central 2nds OK, here's my response to the questions regarding selection. Firstly, let me say that one way or another some extremely difficult decisions needed to be made considering the availability of Bloomfield and Elleray who have spent the majority of the season in the 1s...

    Re: Senior Central 2nds Conditions were certainly tough for batting (or at I least made them look that way!). Not much was really in our favour, pitch was doing a bit all day, outfield was pretty slow and the continuous interruptions made it really hard to get set. Having said that though...

    Re: Senior Central 2nds We also may have 1 or 2 changes, but not necessarily from the 1s. There is going to be a couple of really tough calls. Unfortunately we don't have the luxury of having our lower grades also in the finals, so it will be especially harsh for those who miss out. Glad I'm...

    Senior Central 2nds

    Re: Senior Central 2nds Ok so here's what happened in our game. The deck we served up was an absolute shocker and we were behind the 8 ball before the first ball was bowled losing the toss. Every ball was taking a divert for the first hour or two and in in similarity to the other game, we found...

    Re: Senior Central 2nds G day boys, some good discussion here, let me add a rpb perspective. Firstly i think given that they are assured of finishing on top and won the flag last year, Spotty would obviously be the bookie's favourite at this stage. YC look to be finding form, but I'd still have...

    Re: payments What about clubs that don't have juniors, surely such a system would put them at a huge disadvantage?

    Re: Senior Central 2nds Nothing in particular to report from the RPB v MH game. Top order didnt get enough runs and put too much pressure on the boys down the order, who ended making a pretty good fist of it. When chasing 250+ you probably need someone to get 75+ and anchor the innings...

    Senior Central 2nds

    Re: Senior Central 2nds Interesting. Just having a look, CYs need to make up around 24 points. Hypothetically, if CYs did win all 3 and youlden lost all 3 this would put them roughly on the same amount of points, depending on bonus points. CYs have druids in the last round, could possibly...

    Re: Senior Central 2nds Given that MH haven't put their scores up, I'll let you guys know that Otis made 150 odd. 275 is definitely a competitive total, but also gettable a one, as long as we bat out the overs i think we should get those runs.

    Re: Senior Central 2nds Agree with the points you are making there. We're probably unlikely to see Cue or James in the 2s again this season, with both of them being integral to the 1s campaign. That was a very strong side that was fielded against you boys a couple of weeks ago, just looking...

    Senior Central 2nds

    Re: Senior Central 2nds Haha, the 'mental edge' comment was actually in reference to tobb's tip before the game last week. You're definitely right about Spotty missing a key strike bowler, Ross will be a big in if we meet again, however we weren't exactly at full strength ourselves, G Cusack...

    Senior Central 2nds

    Re: Senior Central 2nds Very quiet indeed this week, probably something to do with most of the posters having a loss on the weekend i guess. Was a good win by the parkers boys last weekend, slotting into first and again a 'mental edge' over finals rivals spotty. Agree that the top 4...

    Senior Central 2nds

    Re: Senior Central 2nds Here's my thoughts on this weeks games: RPB v Spotty. I think we've come along way since out round one clash, and being at home where we have been very good this season, i think this gives us the slight edge. Should be a ripper though. Youlden v Yarraville. I...

    Senior Central 2nds

    Re: Senior Central 2nds Are we ready to call that the top 4 are pretty well set in stone now?? A couple of big games this week, with RPB v Spotty and Youlden v Yarraville. What are everyone's thought on these clashes?? Dizzy, how is the Spotty team shaping up compared to our round one...

    Senior Central 2nds

    Re: Senior Central 2nds Also, can someone explain to me why, in an 8 team comp with 11 rounds, that every team does not play one another at least once? What is the league's rationale behind this? Surely it does not make for a fair and equal comp?

    Senior Central 2nds

    Re: Senior Central 2nds Speaking of players deserving a ones call up??? Thoughts? Great performance, possibly only out done by Ace Elleray's 9/50... Not a bad effort considering his 120 in the first innings. A pretty big gap opening up between the top 4 and the bottom 4. Is it too...

    Re: Senior Central 2nds Having played against united and mhsob in the past two matches, i think united looked a much stronger outfit. Absolutely no depth in the MHSOB, batting or bowling....

    Re: Senior Central 2nds Haha, the arvo tea probably was the most memorable part of the day for me, so you're right. Tips for the games starting tomorrow? Two big games, maybe finals previews , I'm going with: RPB to win a cracker against neighbours Youlden Spotty in a tight one at...
