McCartney back to Playford before even playing for another club after apparently being cleared...

and heard Smithfield have picked up Ray Bickle?

isn't he from smithfield

from Playford...

Bickle was from Smithfield originally. Got an A grade game as a 14 y.o back in 03/04 as we had an injured keeper and saved the day with a 30 odd batting at 11. Has a pretty impressive record in Grade 2 over the past few years with the bat.
Apparently Macartney never even signed at Craigmore, a deal went on that he was unaware of. He too played at Smithfield before going to Playford, he didn't want to play any higher than D's with Smithfield as he had a few mates in that grade, we had a very young D grade then. Tim always showed promise with us but has come a long way with age out at Playford.

So is there any confirmed signings or departures from any clubs? Plenty of speculation going around. I know Smithfield have 4 possible very handy signings, I wont hold my breath though, could go either way from here.

not sure if the clearance side of the world has started to happen out at The Lodge but i would imagine a few new faces especially in the A Grade

[OKC!]

What is all this im hearing about jimmy?
thought he was happy back playing with his mates.

Jimmy will be at R & C 100%. Unless Collingwood lose on friday night. He might off himself and not play for anyone.

Did Craigmore get a coach?

[MadMax]

Did Craigmore get a coach?

No we had plenty of interest, but no-one could commit.

Thats funny that the Cricket Director asks me if we have anyone who has left
I know a certain person signed last night - a fellow poster infact
come out come out - whoever you are

I heard Smithfield FC have gone into liquidation/bankrupt and there is a strong possiblity Eastern Park will take over the oval, if so would this impact cricket at all?

You heard wrong, that was last years rumour mate, it was on here a couple of pages back.

dont think the Panthers will be going anywhere
plus if they did fall over there would be no way known that the council wouldnt be carving it all up and extending the shopping precint - prime real estate

Not allowed to mate, there was a clause when the land was donated by the Smith family that it must ALWAYS be used for recreational use. The council did offer to build new facilities in the mid 90's IIRC next to the North Lakes Golf Course, at that stage Anderson Walk was going to be like Salisbury's John St, the motion never went anywhere obviously.

that could mean anything now like a small park - doesnt need to have clubrooms
but if you dont fall over doesnt matter

simple correct

[Lightning McQueen]

Just out of interest, what's the going rate that's offered for when recruiting Grade 1 players. It's an interesting debate on what prospective players think would be a fair deal or not.

i think the new recruit from last night is a Wagon Wheel per game

Yeah, no doubt they'd find some clause in there, I found a cricket premiership photo from the early 1920's and 10 of the 11 players were Smith's.

Another recent suggestion was to re-locate us to where the new estate on the corner of Main North & Craigmore Rds are.

You are right though, we wont be falling over.
