It terrible to have a club that is successful and that people come to off their own back wanting to play for. I agree.. The kiwi should never have accepted a job in Geelong forcing him to have to play cricket here, or at least should do the right thing and commute back to NZ each week to play...

Re: Geelong Cricket Chat 09/10 I would not expect that they would have layed the whole square. First few weeks are generally a mixture of grass, clippings and rolled dirt. Good for spinners and reverse swing.

Re: Geelong Cricket Chat The draw has been relatively successful with. 8 teams drawn to play a team that played finals, and a team that did not, in rounds 1 and 2 (therefore playing twice) 2 teams will play 2 teams twice that did not play finals. - BPH - have North Geelong and Manifold...

Re: Geelong Cricket Chat The 3 candidates had the opportunity to promote themselves and Steph was the only one there. Both other candidates had someone else speak up for them. This may have been the difference. I am not sure how close the vote was. It seemed relatively close. All other...

Re: New club Coaches/Captains/Players for 2009/10 Thats a good comparison??

Re: New club Coaches/Captains/Players for 2009/10 The remaining 60% is something that the club has a lot more control of. Attentance at meetings, qualified junior coaches, payment of affiliation on time. I think that club championship is the decider unless the club has major shortfalls...

Re: Geelong Cricket Chat I am not sure what other clubs curators are like but we seem to be on the receiving end of a curator trying to be too fair. Most clubs have pride in their facilities and aim to host finals cricket. I would not expect to see clubs that are hosting Div1 finals...

Re: Geelong Cricket Chat With little chance of a win do you pray for rain. Yes sure.. Do you make your pitch unplayable or prepare a dodgy to try to get points that you do not deserve... Never. To say every club would go to any length to make sure they played finals is just crap. I do...

Re: Geelong Cricket Chat Geelong CC have the best ground and wicket combination in Geelong. There are no gca clubs that come close to it in Geelong. There are quite a few good wickets around, but none can offer a cricket shaped ground, with an outfield that is basically perfect. I hope...

Re: Under what conditions should cricket be cancelled Update on GCA website from last week: As the forecast for this weekend is again likely to be "Extremely Hot" the managament committee will be making a decision to whether play takes place at 9am Saturday morning. Please keep your eye on...

Re: Under what conditions should cricket be cancelled If heat is an issue for the gca, would it be an option to start the games at 3.00. Games then finish at 8.00. Players will miss the hottest part of the day, and should be finished well before light is an issue.
