I was informed about some disgusting behaviour by the players from the Adelaide Cavaliers in a section 7 game versus Shiedow Park. I was told that during the first week when they were fielding and there were lbw decisions not given they would come up to the umpire and abuse him to his face, even on one occasion laying a hip and shoulder.
Then in the second week when the game was close at the end, one of Shiedow Park under 15's players that was playing let some runs through the field, and he got abused for a solid 10 minutes, There was even a confrontation after the game between the parents of the junior and a Cavaliers player.
Adelaide Cavelairs suprise suprise. Biggest bunch of cheats an no hopers I ever played against. Year after year 'qualify' for the finals but with an impartial ump they'd get rolled every time.
