Disapointing loss. Gotta cop all the crap now, on the chin.

Great knocks by Harmon 197 (St.J) and Robbie Evans 130no (NDCC) in the two's Sat.

Ants or anyone else; can someone give us the lowdown on Ben Harmon? Perrenial 2's player at St Joeys; leaves for one year, plays in a 1st XI Div 1 premiership at North then goes back to St Joeys to play twos again. I can't work it out. Very neat bat when on song and hard to get out. I would imagine he would play 1sts at most Divvy 1 clubs. Lads, any thoughts?

mate he actually played the first game in there 3's this year..

as for leaving north i didnt really understand it.... his head was on the chopping block grand final week but the club stuck with him hoping that he'd come good for us... in the end he didnt and he left... where as the hard luck story of kurt hiller playing every game and getting dropped for the final.. he's still around and doing his part for the club

a lot of the old blokes at north were questioning the NDCC's bowling attack on saturday night after the news came thru... but well done to him i spose

When ever someone makes a big score, 9 out of 10 will question the quality of the attack?

Harmon had some luck and ran with his chances. He made 197 and I'm sure not one person out there wouldn't take that for themselves. I suppose when you win the game very quickly, you don't have a lot of pressure directly on you.

Credit where Credit is due.
 
Re: Geelong Cricket '08/'09(gca/bpca)

Rito.... us boys at north are struggling this year... we've lost a few and didnt gain a lot..

but still... jacas our 2nd best keeper... maybe even our best keeper but while dannys there and making runs he'll play in our 1's....

also.. kurt hiller... if he plays 2's.. who r we gunna bring up.... isnt it betta if we leave the 16 year olds in the 2's and give them the experience and the confidence to bowl teams out... rather than rush them up and knock all the confidence outta of them

ok ok.. everyones entitled to there opinions and uve had so many good ones in the past... but the punch up thing was a joke written on here by matty caufield... there was no fight at presso night... mango and mitch.. all is good between em...

ash wasnt making runs at north.. he loved the club.. loved the environment but stilll.. he was a junior at north shore and probably seen the oppurtunity to go bakk to where it started and start afresh

and as for trying to satisfy fergie... only a cheque book can do that... and we're a proud club and can honestly say that the cheque book has never came out to any player that isnt the coach of the club
 
Re: Geelong Cricket '08/'09(gca/bpca)

Thomson vs Marshall Match Report

Salts lost the toss last week and Marshall decided to bat on a hard and fast Thommy deck. Marshall were in early trouble at 3-10 with Riches (4-32) and Petterwood (3-5) taking the honours against the opening batsmen. Marhsall recovered somewhat to be 6-120 through Trent Leslie (74) and Paul Cammaroto (32) but some tight bowling from the Tigers helping to get the remaining 4 wickets for only another 30 runs. Ben Smiljanic (1-40), Mick Gill (1-36) chipped in with a wicket each. Marshall eventually all out for 151 inside 48 overs.

Thomson had 34 overs to bat day one and got off to a terrible start losing Englishman McCoy (0) cheaply to Marshall Captain-Coach Paul Cammaroto (1-9). Smiljanic (45) and Strods (22) put together 58 before Strods played one back on to his stumps off the "bowling" of Shaun Johnson (1-33). Saltalamacchia (30) and Smiljanic got to within 8 overs of stumps before Smiljanic mistimed a wide one from Craig Phyland (1-53) which bought O'Neill to the crease. Salts and O'Neill played out the day to be 3-104 at close, with O'Neill (1*) and Salts (22*).

Day 2 started on a very good wicket with a little bit less bounce than day one at Godfrey St with Rod Dubbledam (1-65) and Shaun Johnson opening the bowling Thomson requiring a further 47 for victory. Salts added a further 8 to his overnight score before mistiming an aggresive lofted drive of Dubbledam which bought in veteran Stephen Dahlhaus to join O'Neill. They batted for a further 12 overs producing a partnership of 115 and safely guiding Thomson to first innings points, Dahlhaus (22*) and O'Neill (82*). Thomson declared at 4-220 off 50 overs and sent Marshall back into bat to try and claim outright points with a lead of 69.

Marshall's second innings started a lot better than their 1st with former Thomson 4th XI opener Damien Young (20) playing some fine pull shots of Dean Riches (4-40) before the introduction of 1st gamer Phil Featherston (1-10) who with Kim Petterwood (3-15) combined well to rip apart the Bears top order to have them precariously placed at 4-32. Trent Leslie (20) and Jarred Messinger (17) momentarially ceased the bleeding before a fine second spell from Dean Riches ran through the middle-lower order resulting in the Bears being 9-76 with a second innings lead of 7 runs still with 25 overs minimum to play. Captain Salts (0-15) threw the ball around to try and get out the stubborn Rod Dubbledam (21*) and opening "bowler" Shaun Johnson (28*) to no avail, O'Neill (0-10) landing 11 out of the 12 leggies he threw down. A pretenscious stumping not given and some half chances not taken by the Thomson fielders led to Marhsall being 9/125 at the close of play.

Votes: 3. Dean Riches 2. Sean O'Neill 1. Trent Leslie

There boring defensive fields didn't help the game either:rolleyes:

If you were in the game all day then you must have been watching a different game. When your top 7 bats only get 140 odd runs between them, you were NEVER in the game. The only time you were in the game was when you tossed the coin to start proceedings. Totally outplayed....outbatted....outbowled.....outfielded. You could probably learn something from the defensive fields....that way you wouldn't have been chasing 376.

This is like Ricky Ponting saying they were in the game against India last start. Or like Port Adelaide saying they were in the game in last years grand final. Or like the Melbourne Storm saying they were in the game in this years grand final.

Go to the surgeon, get a brain transplant (and a new heart muscle), and come back on here when you have got something of importance to say.:p

Great chase by the Cheetahs yesterday just came up a bit short. but I think we weren't that far away St Albans couldn't probe through our strong batting line up and we batted for 71 overs which proves that we will be there abouts come finals time.

Well done to St Albans but after what we saw over the last two weeks we won't fear them whatsoever if we happen to meet come finals in fact I hope we do!
