I heard they got penalised points for cheating.

With two umpires I'd be pretty hard to cheat without them noticing, what on earth did they do?

Rounds 1 & 2 - have a yellow dot against them in the fixure in Mycricket.. which means results either disputed or not confirmed... games dont count until completed.
Perhaps match results have not been confirmed by one of the clubs ( v Whittlesea & Hurstbridge)???

Although I was only joking about losing points for cheating, it is amazing me all the worry over the ladder at the moment.
A close inspection of Mycricket shows that not all games are being displayed on the ladder. While 6 rounds have been played, its only showing 4 played for Eltham, 5 for Whittlesea and 5 for Hurstbridge.
As Ex Prez has pointed out, if you look at the fixture there are some games that are showing as unconfirmed, therefore do not appear on the ladder.
I think some people need to calm down.

All fixed now, assuming the games were re-opened to adjust some minor details or something.

A slip up from lalor on the weekend wouldn't read too much into it?,but it does leave 4th spot ajar for mont if things go their way.

Looking at the fixture, Lalor Stars could very easily miss the finals. They are playing Monty (5th), North Eltham (2nd) and Lower Plenty (1st) last 3 rounds.
Monty are 12 points out, but play Lalor (4th), Hurstbridge (12th) and Greensborough (11th).
I think whoever wins out of Lalor and Mont this round will pick up 4th spot.

Lalor had three 1's blokes on a cruise on the weekend, think that they will bounce back this weekend.
4 is sorted.

Monty have lost more games than the top 4 combined. Admittedly, the top 4 still yet to play each other for a large part. Which will make for an interesting finish.
The gap between the top 4 and the rest is significant.

Greensborough's had a big year - all senior sides on the bottom of the ladder.
33 games
2 wins
2 heat-outs
23 first innings losses
6 outright losses
Am I right in hearing the club might be in a bit of trouble next year re: folding?

A big walk out would hurt any club, depth is tested in every side. Will be a rebuilding job, but the club has a proud history and good facilities, as long as they don't let the juniors lapse, they should be back. We shouldn't be dancing over their graves, because weak clubs are bad for the comp.
I also wonder if the boys that used to be up and about on this forum are the same ones that left.

Seem to have hit a nerve.
Greensborough War Memorial Oval would make a good ground for our 5th XI next season.

I seemed to have massively overrated both Lower Plenty and North Eltham. You wouldn't expect 1st and 2nd on the ladder to lose their last 2 games.
But now in the semi finals, anything can happen.
45+ kids enrolled in Milo Cricket. 60+ Kids enrolled in T20 Blast. One of only 4 T20 Blast centres in the Diamond Valley. Tripled Junior numbers year on year. U16's lost their semi final by 14 runs to the top side. Healthy finances off the field and a profit for the 2015/2016 season. If that sounds like "Trouble", I reckon there would be a lot of clubs that would love to be in "Trouble"!!!
