Adelaide and Suburban Cricket Association 2010/11

Brad has indicated to us that he wants to come and play with us yes that is true.

He certainly has. He said he wants to play in a team that makes 250, bowls the other team out and wins, fair enough.

That's funny. If he made more runs last season we could of done that on multiple occasions.

from reading on here i wouldn't be concerned about losing a player like him... he's an individual who plays from himself and not for the team..
probably fit in nicely at WYC

Summed him up beautifully there WUB.
Do you know Brad?

nah have know idea... just an assumption from what ive read on here

[CoverKing]

Bazza, do you have any ideas what your mob is doing this year? Back to section 2 or going to stay up in section 1??

[OSB RD.]

South Road back into section 1 for North Haven???

You are Joking!!!!!!!!!
This mob are a rabble & deserve no favours.
Please stay up North Haven.

Rabble? Care to explain?

[bazza1]

With all our outs this year, I dont think we should stay up, for the good of the comp. We started showing signs last year, but with the loss of several lads, I dont think we would be competitive. We have dodged several bullets. The time has come.

Moe seems to be genuinely po'd with SRCC which is a shame - it's certainly not a perspective I share. Playing against the Roos was always a highlight for me. Always played very tough on the field and every time with a beer afterwards in the bar. Catching up with Danny ( an association champ in my eyes), Kym W, Pitty, Simon von Stanke (anyone else remember him?) etc was always good value. Even though we didn't always see eye to eye - it was always left on the field.
As to clubs being owed favours - no club deserves a favour. If SRCC is restored to Sect 1 then so be it. It was very disappointing that administration, not playing efforts, saw this happen. The association took a stand on this matter and that is their right and responsibility and shame on us for putting them in that unenviable position.
On a personal note I was humbled and grateful for the send off afforded to Poul Petersen and myself in our final Section 1 game against Morphys - we both have nothing but respect for the club and truly appreciated the gesture - very classy. As is his usual style Danny M was the first one in the rooms with a beer as three very old boys talked of younger days ... and in Peto and Danny's case a fast bowling pact of no bouncers - that for some reason they never let me in on!

Interested to see if WYC will put in 100% effort to develop Brad's game if he is only going onto greener pastures the year after.

I know they will try and get him to stay, but really do you want to help people who have said they are leaving next year, or to people who are willing to hang around.

No you don't.

Brad will be free to come and go as he pleases as is every other player we have at our club.

We have a very proud history of sending our kids onto district cricket and at no stage, whilst i have a say, would we stop a person doing that.

We also welcome them back with open arms when/if they return.

I would be disappointed if Morphys didn't give you a good send off .

Good post thought Barney and welcome to the forum.

I reckon your lying WUB 12. You know him like the back of your hand.

Moe was rightly po'd with South Road for pulling out on the 20/20 game against Morphies on the morning of the game last season (possibly amongst other things). I would hold the grudge for a while too and thinks South Rd should be asked to sit out this years 20/20 comp.

Surely another season of Sect 1 wouldn't hurt Barney? Who is going to step up? The way you bamboozled the Ramblers batsmen last season must have brought back memories of charging in off the long run and sending down thunderbolts in your younger days....

[dundee12]

I could be wrong but didn't NH sect. 2 and 3 sides finish top or very close to it last season Bazza? I know big step up in section 1 but That shows some good depth i would have thought.

What outs have you got atm bazza??
Christie from what Ive read. where has quirk gone?
what about Alan Lipson? he going around again??

[Iron Fist]

I would suggest Bazza that anyone who plays Hard wicket cricket and want's to be paid should be told to pull his head out his arse and go and play Turf or District if he thinks he is that good.

unless your an insterstate player or gun recruit you wouldnt get paid in cricket.
I know that turf teams try to get district cricketers across with money.
no reason why hard wicket cricketers couldnt be paid. Unlike footy, all performance based though.
So if ya recuit isnt making runs or taking wickets, then he isnt costing the club a thing.

Thats because all you want is money iron fist. You won't play otherwise!

Thats not true westsider and thats actually insulting.
I played 2 seasons ago for Nuriopta for no charge, as a matter of fact ive never been payed to play cricket!

Fair question Dundee, it was made up of mostly older guys, with a few exceptions, (westsider) That side wouldnt be competitive in Sect 1.

Quirks have gone to Port Districts, Christie to the Western Youth Poachers Potts to Glenelg Districts, Skennar who is in the RAAF wont play many games, Ellis ??, L.Martin is not sure he is playing this year.
Not sure with Lipson.

Lippo doesn't even know what he's doing tomorrow let alone if he's playing cricket this season. I'm pretty sure he isn't though.

Surely there is a few from the B grade that would be capable of stepping up to section 1 bazza? It would be sad to see you guys go down after the hard work that you have put into staying section 1. A good bunch of guys to play against so it would be good to see you stay up.

[Westsider]

I'm old!

I'll play section 1, shoulder is good.

[bazza1]

We have to be realistic, we have finished bottom the last 2 years, losing those players, it would be hard to be competitive. Its sad for our club to go down, ( although the committee hasnt decided yet) but i feel its the only way to go, rebuild, get some confidence, and have another crack at sect 1 sometime in the near future.

[bazza1]

Always welcome in the A's mate!

[Jabber]

not bad, you actively recruit one of their players that they've invested possibly the most of their time in and then play bestmate-acts with 'gee i hope you guys stay up, you worked so hard, it would be so sad'.

it seemed they worked pretty hard with christie and that didn't seem to phase you guys in the slightest.
