Drysdale will take a big step up with B graders finally stepping up a grade.
BH will falter without Les Wallace and too much reliance on too few.
Anglesea will improve on the back of C Robertson
and Jan Jucs youngsters will take all before them

If Farnsworth plays... ive heard he's been down at Geelong Preseason training, Fisher too he's been in the Bakker Squad and Senior Preseason training.

Says on their website they have a practice game on sunday vs Warn Ponds... would be interesting to see who is playing for the bulls... the same would go for Warn Ponds.. Skene's, Port maybe?

I thought I saw Farnsworth at Leopold training the other week, could be mistaken though.
 
Re: BPCA Previews and Predictions

having spoken to his cousin Sam... i have since found that he just went for a T-rundle with all the junior and senior boys from Joeys when he played there as a junior

ahhh, does that explain some fairly quick guy that used to play at Geelong which has apparently being training at Leopold ?? But the same one which is not listed on the training attendance list on the website ??

I think they were talking about Heath, Sam is definitely playing at St Joeys.

big deal on all three counts, hardly gonna set the world on fire, just normal cricketers that wont dominate. adams did nothing anywhere ever, the others can lpay but not gonna make a huge difference. No disrespect intended.

Re: BPCA Previews and Predictions

So, how are we looking for the season ahead in the BPCA. If anyone could help out with club by club ins and outs that would be great.

Anglesea: Peter Bracken is coaching, Glenn Richardson to captain with Darryn Jacobs heading to Manifold.

Barrabool: Coach? Have apparently picked up Jed Potter from Corio, Mark Adams from Drysdale and Colin Bride from GW might be playing too. Strachan and an opening batsmen from Mortlake who remains unnamed the other ins

Barwon Heads: Les Wallace is travelling the country for the year, but Clint Watson is back to fill his spot. Chris Welsford to captain/coach again.

Collendina:

Drysdale: Leigh Allan is coaching, other inclusion is Craig Brady who used to play for BPH. The club is hoping alot of their B Grade premiership side can step up a grade.

Jan Juc: I heard whispers Lygo wasn't playing this season, not sure whether they have any merit though? I'd imagine Muncey would be coaching again.

Newcomb:

Ocean Grove:

Portarlington:

Queenscliff:

St Leonards: Won't have an A Grade this year. Rob Cutajar is coaching.

Wallington:
