Way to go in stuffing up the A2 draw and loading a lower grade team with fringe A grade players. Surprising the AEH Association allowed this given Hahndorf competed in the B Grade Grand Final last year after sitting top for most of the season. Relegation must be the price paid for a GF loss.


Think I eluded to this situation a few weeks ago!

It would appear that the "advertising campaign" for new players in the courier was not a success.

I for one am not suprised.

For example the club that nominated 3 teams, forfeited their lowest team on Saturday, struggled to fill their 2nd team (with juniors and blokes playing their 1st ever game) so what happens now..... do they go back to the association and say sorry guys we don't have the players for a 3rd team, so we go through another competition re-draw. Clearly they should have "sured" up their playing stocks (last season) and not assumed they would be returning. Incompetence, arrogance and mis-management!!

You should have put money on this outcome as it transpired exactly as predicted.

Creeks 8/323 (70 overs) v Ashbourne.
Johnson 139 (1st ever ton)
Thorpe 91

Shared a 200+ 2nd wicket stand.
1st time since 2010 that the Creeks have batted out their allotted overs - amazing that they couldn't even achieve that feat last year even in the 1 dayers depite playing off in the GF.

Any other scores/highlights/scandal/rumours/B.S. ?

Nairne all out for 172 strath batted 6 overs 0/20. With Clint foster out next week strath would like there chances. Godson and kym Heinrich made 40 odd each. Hard to believe godson was playing c grade for nairne a couple of years ago.

Some interesting scores at the half way point of round 3 A&EH.

Nairne 177 Vs Strath 0/20 - My pick of Nairne looking a little shakey perhaps? Runs can be hard to make on the Strath turf, so 177 may be a better score than it looks.

Creeks 8/323 - Vs Ashbourne - My pick was Ashbourne - ooops think I went the wrong way on that - Johnson a big hundred for the Creek. Clemnets back for the Creek helps their bowling as well. Game over!

Woodside 185 Vs Wistow 0/7 - My pick was Woodside, game in the balance. Wistow with their noses in front at this point!

Hahndorf 227 Vs Lobethal 0/6 - My pick was Lobethal - 227 is a good score, will fall to Col Hackett & Jake Sziller to get Lobethal home you would think. In the balance. Can't pick the winner.

Also noticed that Hahndorf, having pulled their team out of A2's in favour of C Grade - forfeited again in the C's. It looks like there was also another forfeit in the C's this weekend (Ashbourne Vs Strath), meaning just 1 match took place in this Grade of A&EH - disturbing!

TVCA Round 2:

Gum 199 def Mt Torrens 149 & 5/122- Gum’s batting depth shines through.
Palmer 223 def Cambrai 82 & 8/77- Poor day with the bat for the visitors. Wickets shared for the Bears.
Paracombe 5/318 (dec) def Birdwood 50 & 7/174- Pirates gave themselves 56 overs to bowl Birdwood out again. Encouraging 2nd innings effort by the hosts.
Lenswood 8/176 (dec) def Eden Valley 77 & 83 outright- EV ordinary again on day 2. Wickets shared across both innings for us. Handy outright.

You are definately right in regards to the c grade comp. strath c grade havent even played a game yet with 1 forfeit for and 2 against them.There has been at least two forfeits per week in this grade. Obviously it is getting harder to get kids out to play and even harder when they committ and then find out a forfeit has occurred. Is it too late for the c and d grade to join and make one grade?
It seems that some clubs that you would expect to have heaps of teams and numbers don't eg mt barker who are an embarrassment. There number one side fielded in the a2s have 5senior players and the rest are under 20. Is this because they are poorly run or cos they have a few weird players playing for them?

In the case of Mt Barker CC - I think its a little bit of both! Also I reckon whenever a half decent cricketer arrives in the area, he is quickly "swept up" and off to Wistow!!

When you look at places like Wistow (3 teams), Ashbourne (3 teams), Callington (2 teams), Finnis (2 teams), Maccy (2 teams) - it makes you wander why Hahndorf can only pull together 1 team!!!

A few of those young blokes at Mt Barker CC are Ok - in particular Josh Hone.

Probably too hard/late to join the C & D Grade comps together now.

Early days but good to see the bottom 2 sides from last season sitting in the top 2 spots on the HCA ladder.

I see Rohan Reid got a 100 odd & 5 wickets first game of the season fair effort. Who will stop the might Meadow lads this season or will it be four in a row????

Uraidla?
Aldgate?
Onkaparinga?
Scott Creek Ironbank?
Mt Lofty?

Any thoughts lads??????

A lot of one day games in that comp so anything could happen, but Jesus Christ coming back to life is more realistic than Meadows getting done i think

TVCA who will win the flag?

My guesses would be either Gums, Paracombe, Palmer & Lenswood. Could go either way & the GF will be a close one who ever plays in it.

A&EH
Tom Johnson 100 odd great effort for the creek, Ashbourne will have to bat well.
Strath good effort against Nairne
The other two games could go either way

On the surface it seems SCIB's and Lofty have improved while the others have dropped off a touch, esp Aldgate. Meadows seems miles ahead but you dont win flags in October, plenty of time for any of the clubs to mount a serious challenge.

one the hills comp it appears that yes meadows will again be almost untouchable. they havent lost anything from last yr and pick up another bowler in angus frazer. there batting is extremely strong and there bowling solid, although they dont have a real quick like dubois.

aldgate have lost a few from last yr and with both bat and ball struggle after there top few in each category. depth will be a bit of a problem.

uraidla as well have lost 4 or 5 from last yr, mainly all there experience (finch, duncan, geppy, dill, carter etc.). they are a very young team now and unless hunsie can save em with the bat, and himself and spuddy farrin with the ball; they will rely heavily on the depth of there youngster that will decide there performance.

mt lofty have been bolstered with a few pickups and return this yr. bowling wise they should hold up ok espesh if madsen and furber can play some more cricket, but the runs will be the biggest concern. time for the top order to produce some bigger scores.

scibs have been strengthened by the return of tarque and the development of there juniors. will be improvers on last year.

onkas still have a lot of regular names and include duncan from uraidla, however hes bowling off a shorter run due to ankle injury. a shadow of the team they were with the likes of kemp, galvin etc but still some solid names in the line up.

with only six team it will be interesting to see who will make it thru in the top 4, and if anyone can take it up to meadows!!

Meadows streets ahead.

Next is probably Onkas and thats saying something. Solid batting line up and have heard duncan will be back off the long run in the next few weeks. Probably lack the next generation coming through but handy side none the less. Would need Gribin Sampson and Rowe to make lots of runs when it counts to win.

Mt Lofty are a good young side. Sink is a gun and will be able to carry that side most weeks. Great to see their youth comming through, furber, pistola, matulik and neis beer all very talented and should provide enough to see them top 4. Madsen and Dawes great pick ups should provide stability. Steady bowling line up but may struggle to bowl out sides, unless sink is bowling 35 overs.

Uraidla still a very good side, have blooded plenty of youth by the looks of their score card, half their side coming from the D grade last year. Brown still injured from footy will return at some stage one would think, carter playing b grade would also make his way back. Farrin not what he use to be they will need Brown and Sutton to help Hunter get their wickets. Brown and Hunter to make the runs.

SCIB's like Uraidla and Mt Lofty have good young depth and with Tarque in there they are a much better side. Batting seems think except for Adams and the big coach. Bowling should be okay but without anything too dangerous. Good to see Sherry start amongst the runs. Talented sportsman.

The Gators really lacking youth with both pistola's leaving over the last few years. Still will be a competitve side, bowling line up is probably better then most with Tarone and Pig but falls away pretty quickly after that in the bowling. The batting doesnt have any stars. Need to find youth and blood youth fast!

I think the lowest 5 teams should all finish real close this year but come March why bother.

fair dibs on most of it but uraidla are in more trouble then i think u realise.

although dill brown may be injured from footy all reports are he'll be makin his way down 2 east torrens again. carter told hunsie at the start of the season he wasnt gona play any a grade. from what i gathered and could be wrong here cartso was told by hunsie he was gona be forced against his will 2 play 1's round 1 but with bridgey bouncing it never eventuated. will wait and see but ud expect him 2 roll back into the 1's asap, hes 2 prouda cricketer.

yep meadows have everything 2 loose but the other teams have everything 2 gain.

you look at onkas line up and its not as strong as once thought. batting line up isnt deep at all even though sammy rowe has made a few, and there lacking any kind of strike power with the rock.....

All on the money lads i agree with most things said but :shock:

Onkapringa side lacking fire power????? might be a bit early saying that i hear that they may have picked up a couple of players from Southern Stingwrays

A bowler & a all rounder??????

Can anyone confirm this

If it's a lad that has taken a year off of Grade cricket and has played a number of a grade games for Southern Stingwrays they won't be lacking fire power he can let then rip and on hard wicket with a 2 piece could be very tricky. Good for them if they have picked up the two blokes. The next round of one day games could show Onkapringa are a bit better than they have been given credit for.

Uraidla, well they are always around the mark. Brown will stay and play a massive roll for them with Bat & Ball, Carter may play B for a while but come the business time of the season that could change. The lads that played D grade last year were they really D Graders, or just blokes that wanted a casual game of cricket and have step up this year, good on them if they have.

A&EH, bit of rain about will this help the sides Bowling this week i think so, especially if they are on turf.

Strath might give Nairne a hurry u but i can't see them beating them
Ashbourne, wow big score by the Creek lads but on a small oval and on the Ashbourne oval i think the English lads might enjoy. It will be like playing back home, Ashbourne to chase them down but need to get past a couple of bowlers and that's it.
Woodside, not ideal for them but have a strong bowling attack would expect them to roll them if they get to the middle order quickly with the ball still new and Galvin firing
Lobethal, wow what a great side over the last decade. I think the old boys will pull through and get them to 228 might be wrong though.

TVCA
One thing to talk about there Jack Page where did he come from and why is he playing at Gum's????? can bat and heard he is a more than handy spinner.

Having played against them last year they wern't D Graders, not one fat bloke amongst them! (need a minimum of 4 fat blokes to make a genuine D grade side)

Most could play at a higher level, maybe not A grade but at least B's.

Jack Page has been playing with Gum for at least 2 or 3 years, maybe longer. Hits the ball hard. His brother opens the bowling for them, but unsure if they’re both locals or not.

From memory he didn’t bowl too much after xmas last season, but with Dutschke back at Woodside (swaps between Woodside and Gum every season it seems :lol: ) they might need some overs from him.

Round 3 sees:

Cambrai v Mt Torrens. You’d expect Mt Torrens to win here, although never easy winning up at Cambrai.
Paracombe v Gumeracha. GF rematch and early battle for top spot.
Lenswood v Palmer. Hard one to predict, both teams hot and cold.
Eden Valley v Birdwood. Depends a bit on the fitness of big Ugg and Starick. Birdwood a silly chance here.
