Quite a few if rumours are true and not just from their A grade.

Will they have enough numbers for 4 sides?

Highly unlikely....and thats being generous. If by some miracle they start with four sides they wont finish with four sides especially if their players stick with tradition and p!ss off before the half way point of the season.


well its a good job rumours arent true then isnt it. there may be the odd player leavin the club, but there cud possibly be the odd player comin in to the club. so i dont expect any mass exodus

so 'thats gold' im struggling to see where ur wealth of reliable information comes from? ''highly unlikely... and thats bein generous'' what a load of crap that is. it will be touch and go as to whether we have 4 sides, as it was last season. we shall see how we go. but i definately wudnt count out having 4 sides. like i say... where do u get ur info from?

the problem with craigmore is they put more effort into talkin rubbish and running with nothin rumours than actually gaining results. worry about ur own backyard boys. ive always seen ur club as bein similar to brahma lodge in the way that u try to be very official as a club. try to do things very orderly and professional... the only difference brahma lodge actually won somethin and you guys have won **** all.

Without being rude F2F, if there arent alot of OTH players leaving there are definatly alot of OTH players shopping themselves around.

I have the 'missed call' phone records to prove it.

Definatly not a happy bunch up there.

Gotta give Craigmore some credit, they compete with 2 other sides, within a 1-2 KM radius, and produce 3-4?? sides year after year, and be more than competitive. Their junior program is also very good. When some teams are struggling to put out teams, they are going from strength to strength.

Its all good Masha, id planned to wind one in and trust F2F to bite. Im entitled to my opinion F2F and it doesnt matter where i get my info from. Bag Craigmore out after you drink there every 2nd week with your own p!ss, thats classy!

We should take that as a compliment as they won 3 flags this season and tell me what has OTH won recently? A grade 8 flag?
The only thing OTH do is have players walk away mid season. ;)

Who cares? I know a few clubs have an issue with Donny but if you dont talk to him at any stage you will be safe, not the way it should be I know but everyone knows what he is like.
As for Merlin a hearing aid would come in handy but he isnt alone there, time for a few ex players to take up umpiring but they will only do it if they get to do highers grades like Les did this season.
Its still got me beat how Alf & Merlin got the grade 1 GF, its still the boys club, the old boys!

Except for when he gives the captains of both sides a spray before doing the coin toss.

Most definetely, it does help having two ovals right next to each other..........well sort of. As far as their juniors go, they are successful as they have lots of parents and seniors pitching in to help. We struggled last season because of this, we had enough kids to field 4 junior sides but had to settle for two as we wont ener a side without at least two officials per team.

We have no issues with him, be upfront and greet him when arrives, if you have any queries regarding his decisions talk to him on a personal level and don't create a scene.
He hated me with a passion for ages then one day it all turned around because he tried to make me bite and I didn't, I humbly accepted his decision and discussed it with him later over a beer.
He makes errors, we all do though, but once he has a bee in his bonnet you are stuffed.

just a little question lm , why should we greet the umpires when they arrive ? are they really that precious ?
or maybe we should all roll out the red carpet for them too !??

i tell ya what when these blokes in question start calling the game correctly and have some respect for us players out there , you know the ones that actually make this competition for what it actually is ! because without us in the game ! the game will die ! and the same umpires going around again year after year is getting a bit beyond the joke i feel ! and i feel alot of the players do feel the same way !

i understand you need new umpires to get rid of the old ! something needs to change though ! otherwise i think there will be more teams pulling out !

It's a courtesy thing, as a captain you should introduce yourself to the umpire, ask him if the ground is ready to go and perhaps if he thinks all of the players are dressed accordingly, there's some bullsh!t dress violations that cop fines and if the umpire has ok'd them prior to the match he has no leg to stand on to incur any fines.
Whether you like the umpire or not, you need to give them the respect of greeting them prior to the start of the game, at the end of the day you don't really want any favours, you'd just rather just see the right decisions called.

No matter where you go... in cricket, footy or in life, there will be people you dont agree with, nor get along with. You aren't gonna pack up and move to a different location every time you come up against these types. The right of "ownership" of any competition is as much to the umpires and administrators, as the players.

As for Don, as much as you don't have to respect his ability to be a consistent, fair umpire, you still have to respect the role of the umpire, no matter who is doing the job.
With that... a slight deflection to the next topic!

Donny reported 9 players from our team in one hit back in the late 90's, it resulted in Smithfield folding for the following two years.

Thats crap...dont get me wrong I respect umpires BUT I wont respect a bloke who comes to a game with the intent on getting people in his black book....if we are unfortunate to get him this year the other team will be rubbing there hands together as we will show him as much repect as he deserves...

lightning mcqueen donny needs to understand when he turns up to umpire cricket he has left the prison he works at end of story and the pdca should have the balls to tell him aswell.... he is just an old power hungry @#$% and the sooner he isnt umpiring the better.... pdca should be looking at younger umpires no doubt instead of the old mans club....
