That would explain the poor performances at domestic level, they face pie at district level and struggle to cope when they take the next step.

At the same time, there are a number of very good A Grade bowling attacks going around. For instance, at West Torrens, the combination of: George, Kelly, Stanborough, Bourn and Cullen would have to be one of the best going around for many a year. Woodville have an extremely strong attack and Kensington and Sturt are very strong.

That may be true but that is only the top 4 sides and probably why that they are playing this weekend.

What about the other 9 teams??
