Looks like we will go down to the wire for the finals ladder positions.Lloyd Lambert the pom went home, he was home sick.
Quite true, but there is a points system in place, which does restrict some.Caulfield and Oakleigh should be a cracker. With Caulfield playing Sunshine in the final round, this is pretty much a battle for top spot.
Hoppers have been great this season. i believe they have an exemption from the league to pay 2 extra players. i think next year will give a better indication of where at... But many VTCA clubs pay multiple players, that's the main reason the VTCA has risen in standard the past decade.

Some shit scores today in big games
Even worse, Sunshine lost outright in all four grades this round. This afternoon, I took up with the club's secretary whether there is credence to recent comments from a number of senior cricket folk over here that Sunshine and Sunshine Heights are in discussion in respect to a merger. He said he was unaware of this and Sunshine was not considering a merger. If something is not done to prop up Sunshine I fear its facilities may be lost to cricket.
I'm starting to think its a wider problem for the VSDCA to address - the number of outrights that are happening. In Round 12 there were 14 outrights (1 in every 4 games) across all grades, and another handful which had opportunity.
This season we've had 48 outrights, which is 50% more than the last 4 years (32 in 14/15, 34 in 13/14, 25 in 12/13, 35 in 11/12).
The quality of cricket in the Subbies has fallen away in the last few years.
The quality of cricket at all levels has fallen away and it starts with Premier who should get rid of 4ths for starters. Too many clubs at that level.I'm starting to think its a wider problem for the VSDCA to address - the number of outrights that are happening.

As a club-appointed curator for 26 years, I welcome the recent publicity in respect to damage done to a VTCA pitch and congratulate the VTCA for offering a $5K reward for information leading to the perpetrator(s) being identified. This is the first time I can recall such action by a cricket ass'n. Details are given in the VTCA's home page. The club-appointed curator of the vandalised pitch is a good friend and is inclined to never again curate at that ground.
Are you a curator?
