I can't understand what you are saying, all I know is Risdon clearly stated at the beginning of last season that we would struggle for players and for us to be double up. This was all fine until Lenny Starke had a cry at a meeting and got our points taken away. From then on no one at Risdon really knew the rule, no one did. Enough about that I have a premiership medal and am very confident in getting a second this year.

I believe it was only props. I believe here it is PROPS sooking, find new ways to make cash and get on with it.

whatever you risdon clown, you wont win anything. All i know is we have enough money with our main man martlew sponsoring us at the sporty tavern so maybe your club will support us and come drink at our sponsors pub? I was told there was five clubs that were prepared not to play at ports? FIVE CLUBS OUT OF EIGHT and i honestly beleive that they want to get everything sorted so they can get on with playing cricket. So stop blaming us and props i would say.
Not hard to understand the rules as they are all there in black and white for everyone to read or cant you read?
END of story i am sick of trying to explain everything to you as you are obviously lacking a little bit of nous.

Squids, you use the term sook often but loosely. One meaning of sook is coward, how can people attending meetings, raising genuine, valid concerns as directed by their clubs be classified as sooks. The sooks are the ones that have plenty to say outside of meetings then go to meetings and say nothing. You also need to get a new informant because the one you have is a dud. I am reliably informed that most of the clubs have problems with playing at the port oval, some have the guts to be open about and some fail badly when they have to standup and be counted.

I am also informed there were many points raised last night thats why it went so long, one very important matter that took up time concerning clearances and i am also told one club should have serious concerns with how they were treated with one particular clearance. It appears to me that some clubs have no idea on how things should be conducted.

Condolences to the Waters family.

so anyone from strykers, warnertown or pt germain on here that can share thier points for not wanting to play on port

So fellas just getting my head around this the problem with playing at Port oval is clubs cant sell drinks etc? So can the home team play there or are all games boycotted? meaning no cricket on the oval.

We'll be right up there again mate, don't you worry.

Why would we drink at your pub when we have "central hotel" emblazoned across the back of our shirts?

Still ongoing i think, no one knows what is going on. We were all warned this would happen years ago, looks like they were right. Any truth in the report the secretary resigned his position? Who is doing the job now?

not sure bigstack i never bothered to ask our delegate that. Maybe squids or AD might be able to give us an answer as he knows everything that went on at the meeting. If it is true i would probably guess they would try and get a wandies official or a south port one that will do as he is told.

thats about correct tbw. there is five clubs out of eight that dont want to play at a PRIVATELY OWNED oval unless they can get some sort of sponsorship happening. The owners are sponsors of two of the clubs in the association. so i guess the clubs that dont wish to play there have no option other than to forfeit there games programmed at the oval then the owners of the oval miss out on having a game there and the sponsored clubs also miss out on having a game. Cant see any other option and if anyone has a suggestion they should show all of us on here and hopefully we can sort it out.

I don't know why you include me above- look at my posts. I've rarely commented on off-field admin stuff. I only know what our delegate says, same as you.

I'm here to talk shit about cricket. I don't get caught up in politics.

You are certainly right about one thing AD, you talk shit. If you involved yourself in a more productive way and invested your thoughts and ideas into the politics the ppca might not be in the mess it is.

[Squids]

Question?

Does the money that people spend in the port rooms DIRECTLY go to Southport / Wandearah in any way? Would those clubs receive the same amount of sponsorship if games were not played at Port Oval?


To my knowledge, the current situation is

No problem with playing at Port --- Wandies, Southport, Risdon
Unknown ---- Strykers, Germein, Warnertown
Against --- Sollies, Props


Also, to my knowledge the rules at Port oval were the same last year, why has this become an issue this year?

Exactly!

Well as already posted, the preference of Strykers, Warnertown and Port Germein are unknown. So you can not claim MOST clubs have a problem. Risdon dont have a problem playing there, in fact we will play every game there.

I think your informat is a dud, I have heard the main point of discussion was Port oval, well over two hours on it.

How to conduct things should be clearly visible based on the constitution which is freely available!

If Brad Pine was repeat his effort of 75 catches then I think he is value at $5.00.

Hard to go past Mr. Bat a 3 and bowl 10 overs though.

Exactly!

for a starter i can tell you that our delegate is certain there was five clubs who dont want to play there and i have no reason at all to dought him and if your delegate was any sort of a man i would assume he would tell you the same. i would think wandies and south port would certainly get a fair proportion of the money that is spent at the club during cricket season,i beleive they get pretty well looked after.. I guess thats why they have to play so many games there, so are we all there just to look after their interests? Issue is i guess that all the other clubs in the comp want a little bit of support for playing over there looking after the interest of wandies south port and the club when really we have a council owned ground where we could play every week with no dramas at all and not be held at ransom. if they are that keen to have cricket there why dont they support all the clubs in the comp instead of two?

ben brown must be a certainty i mean he is a district cricketer who will bat at 3 and probably open the bowling so im heading off to sportsbet and putting my dismal weekly wage on him.

Today's preview is Southport A Grade
Strengths:
A loyal and extensive supporter base. Southport is a well run Club which has sensibly put a lot of time into developing juniors. No doubt this will pay off in the future. Ben Brown is an excellent recruit and will be one of the top 5 players in the competition. Home ground advantage playing games at Port Oval. James Pavlich is underrated in many quarters and is a very solid player. Sam Keane is an excellent young keeper.
Weaknesses:
Confidence / Mental toughness - whatever you want to call it, it is fair to say that this side has underachieved in recent years. The bowling line up is solid but there are too few scoring runs when it really counts. Ben brown's introduction into the Club is an excellent decision but will he be asked to do everything himself?
Question marks:
Will Ben Brown bring some mates with him to strengthen this side?
Which club's top is more maroon - Southport or Strykers?
Where will the runs come from?
Will Mark Katzorke become the best player in the competition with a z in his name?
What will be in Southport's esky at home games at Port oval?
Who will be the first batsman to pick Shazhad's slower ball?
Will young Loupos be given an extended opportunity in the A grade?
Why havent Adelaide Strikers appointed Jamie Crocker as a specialist swing bowling coach?
Best Grewar medal chance:
Ben Brown.
This team has an unnamed player similar to this well known cricketer:
Alfonso Thomas

mark katzorky is he a zimbabwean,south african,sri lankan,indian either way i have heard he is an absolute champion. or did he come from Laura? oh i forgot he could also be an englishman.
