Camrea Taipans were a merged entity - they have split - I think they are now Camrea (back to Jika) and Thomastown ( DVCA). Not 100% on this but I think this is it...? Thomastown United are a separate entity and not related.

Depends at what level the 3's sits in the ranking of all your other teams. If the 3s are a clubs 3rd out of 5-6 teams, then I would suggest the 3s would have a pretty strong representation at training. The lower clubs where the 3s might be the lowest grade, perhaps not so much. I reckon...

Just 4 of the 3's played. These were the top 4 ranked 3's teams from last year. Now playing in E grade against the lowest 4 2's teams. The regular 3's comp ( F1-F4) start this week with the rest.

Lower11 - INCORRECT. This is what was dictated to by the structural changes. Our 3rd were in D grade last year. Finished about 6-7th... playing 80 over cricket against majority other teams 2's. The restructure has now placed us against other teams 3's (not a bad thing) but I was just...

Yulong now has a fence so only small laps now :) In training in the Gym already - some good bowling depth coming our way in the top 2 grades and now that I am 'Ex-Prez' cannot demand to play up the grades - need to earn it now :p (anyone know how to change your name on here without starting new...

Players who retire coz there wife doesnt let them play any more dont have any right to comment on the future

When you step back and consider it, the 'merger' has been taking place for years by stealth. Where do we think Epping, Lalor Stars, Thomastown, Camrea, Mill Park, Macleod, St Francis, Greensborough, Mernda, have all come from ??? Over the years, Clubs in the DVCA have happily voted to let...

Cannot see Gibbs leaving Riverside now. Has had plenty of opportiunities in the past. Funny that he was at the NCL meeting last week representing ...Riverside.

SEN - via Hoggy - reported today Adam Dale to be new head bowling coach of New Zealand...

DVCA pre AGM & AGM coming up soon. If the clubs are not happy with current executive and the direction being taken, then we have the opportunity to elect a new executive at the AGM. Need someone to step forward and commit the volunteer time required to fulfil the job. Unfortunately a little...

Fairly close to the mark from what i have heard. What we have heard recently, was that despite saying nothing much has happened on the senior fornt, apparently quite a lot of concept work has been done. Without knowing all of the facts, what i think is being planned is: In the interim, plans...

Not sure if they have left DVCA, but there were rumours flying around a while ago they were merging with Plenty Valley. This way they will have 6-8 senior teams and also juniors. Some teams will play turf, some hard wicket. Not sure how this will work??? Anyone from YB confirm?

What happened to the rumour last season that St Francis were moving their home base to Parade college? Seems to have gone quiet. Will never be a success when they play on the worst ground/set up in the comp.

Speaking of players who only stay 1-2 years then chase money...

Will be a great test to the old barclay shield / money shield arguement - whereby MS has been accused of being nothing more than a B grade comp. I expect Riverside B grade will have the bottom 4-5 covered. Will struggle against the top sides of course. On the topic of Riverside - we hang a lot...

Here's a thought, Scrap the inter comp matches (who really cares anyway) Play the DVCA, HDCA, NMCA grand finals as is. Then Premiers to play off against each other to determine the best of the best. Need extra weeks to do this - make a 2 day fixture (r11) a one dayer - to shorten the current...

Ok very well. As i said "..rumoured.." if untrue then ok . 2 changes i think - Anderson & Horkins - but 2 changes is not out of the ordinary...

Which grade you playing MBB? E, F or G grade??? Might come along Sunday arvo and watch you guys choke there too...

Only 1 win from 5 starts after the Christmas break. (yes that was against us )

rumoured they dropped a number of 'c' grade players down to D grade for the last game? Was this for discipline from previous week's outright loss ??? D grade could not make finals so no sense to me...??
