re: South Division 10/11
!My frustration with the VTCA grows with so many 'grey' areas.Where is a final played....how many teams go up/down.....structures of fixtures etc, points for players.These are all difficult jobs to do but not impossible. Start of the season clubs nominate their grounds....reasons etc why they should hold it. By mid season elect a ground and a reserve ground (incase its not neutral).Heypresto its locked in keeps people in the know.
Clubs are recruiting players now.....what happens if a club signs players based on the old points only to be told they are now over.

Completely and utterly untrue.... No-one from Hampton made any contact with the VTCA and likewise no-one from the VTCA made any contact/enquiry with Hampton about ground availability.... Hampton's curator was in the process of preparing a wicket before he got word it was at Cheltenham.

Underarm - the VTCA have been very good with communicating these things. Speak to your delegate for this info, it gets relayed to them at match committee meetings.
The grand final allocations is a bit of a grey area though.

The only thing grey is the connection between the SCCC Delegate being on the VTCA Exec and he gets what he wants without thinking of the players. Only thinking of his clubs benefits......

re: South Division 10/11
Apparently Bentleigh also have to provide their own covers for the 2's as South Caulfield only have the one set - some great planning there by the VT decision makers. Hope they don't get damaged by the dogs that run all over that ground. Would hate for South (or worse the VT) to have to pay for any damage.

Sorry SS, that is just what we were told when we asked as to why it was at Chelt and not Hampton.
If that is true it is very strange indeed!

And apparently tea can't be taken at the same time as there isn't enough space in the rooms for the 4 teams to be in there at the same time.
As each fact comes to light, the decision seems more and more ridiculous.
Beaumaris has to supply the scoreboard, Bentleigh the covers. What's the point of "hosting" a grand final if you are unable to supply these sorts of things.
Which club has to bring the stumps and bails?
Anyway, it's the Thursday before the Grand Final, anyone got a tip.
I'll go with Beaumaris in the ones, and Bentleigh to win the Seconds.

I will tip Bentleigh in the ones and Beaumaris in the Two's
Tea will be taken at the same time in the new Pavilion and both clubs also agreed to bring a Scoreboard so scores can be seen on both sides of the ground.Northern $uper$tars;392043 said:And apparently tea can't be taken at the same time as there isn't enough space in the rooms for the 4 teams to be in there at the same time.

re: South Division 10/11
If this is the case, I stand to be corrected. Thanks SS.
I still think Bentleighs top order is a bit brittle. Street and McInnes make up a potent opening attack with the ball, but Hewitt could expose Bentleighs batting.
Should be a great game though. Wouldn't be an upset if either team won.

Both teams are going to put their hopes in their 2 star players...my tip is a Street v Hewitt shootout with Beauie doing the double.As proven in the past it may be whichever teams lesser known players step up that can be the difference though.

re: South Division 10/11
in the early stages of the year this was my prediction
"If i had to pick a winner at this early stage it would be bentleigh streets ahead"
Not so sure bentleigh will do it that easy, however they should have enough class with the bat and ball to get the job done.
However, with players like hewett, cockbain, hignett and the old war horse harrison you never know.
Will head down to caulfield to what should b a fantastic game

Well done Minister you absolute genius....
Do Bentleigh have enough? I Predict yes...Adrian McInness is an absolute champion, so underrated.....I predict McInness will get Hewitt and thus Game Over...

The outfield is slow, so 200 might be enough. Does like an appeal Mr. Hewitt.

re: South Division 10/11
Great games of Beay v Bentleigh but pitty only one umpire knows what is happening. I know that the game cannot operate without the umpires and for the most part they do a really god job but it's really disappointing that they can have a huge effect on the game when they don't need to.

OMG - no one told me that ACDC was playing at Princess Park...geepuzz...!!! What disgrace that is...clearly working of the Etihad theory, if they can play footy on something that looks like that then it is good for a Sth GF...
Nice VTCA - using logic again...
