Its. been in for 3 seasons now, A Grade only.
First 2 seasons the top 2 teams played off in the GF, Nairne beat Woodside in the 2nd semi and again in the Grand
Last year Creeks came from 4th to win 3 away finals on the bounce so can be done.
Hahndorf and Creeks certainly have some oldies but the thought of making a Grand Final makes one forget about the pain of consecutive matches if thats what it takes.

Langhorne Creek are on track to repeat last seasons remarkable feat of winning the flag from 4th spot as they have again advanced to the Grand Final to again play Hahndorf at Hahndorf.
Strath who had only lost 1 game for the season up until the last minor round game have been bounced out of the premiership race by losing their last 3 matches on the bounce. :Hangman:
Hahndorf secured 2 spot by defeating Strath by 1 wicket in the last minor round game and then repeated that win by defeating them on Saturday easily.
Strath then fronted up Sunday with the double chance hosting L Creek who brought Lobethals 11 match winning streak to an end at Lobethal on Saturday as O'dea and Warren made the Northern Tigers pay for inviting the Creeks to bat 1st :o

Creeks held Strath to 9/131 from their 45 overs and appeared in control in the run chase at 1/46 until a steady fall of wickets saw them collapse to 7/86 effectively 8 for as keeper Mudge dislocated his shoulder whilst keeping. Creeks through Ellis who held his nerve to knock off the majority of the runs needed, got over the line 8 down with less than 2 overs to spare.
Interesting to note Strath beat L Creek in the 1st round of the season by 250 runs :shock: (7/288 to 38) tho it was a vastly undermanned Creek team that day.
Strath without a Flag since 1997/98 would be devastated after being clearly the best team all year whilst L Creek have the chance to extend Hahndorfs Premiership drought to 18 years and in turn go back to back themselves for the 1st time since 1960/61

Gum did the double in TVCA, winning both flags.

I didn't happen to watch the A's, but Gum collapsed from 1/86 to be all out 107 in the final over. Palmer 3/78 before mimicking the Magpies' innings, crumbling to be all out for 91 with 3 overs to spare. Continues the trend of very low scoring GFs at Birdwood.

In the post Lobey/Woodside era, Gumeracha, Palmer and Paracombe have now each won 3 flags. Those 3 clubs really have dominated, with only Cambrai (2) and Lenswood (1) also making grand finals in that period.

In the B's Gumeracha successfully defended 140 at Lenswood, Cambrai finishing on 82. Back to back for the Magpies, cant be bothered checking but I'd guess they've won 4 of the past 10 flags in the grade.

So with finals abandoned, the following "win" premierships

AEHCA
A Grade- Hahndorf (Langhorne Creek runner up)
A2- Macclesfield (Woodside)
B- Langhorne Creek (Echunga)
C- Strathalbyn (Woodside)

HCA
A- Meadows
A2- SCIBS
A3- Kangarilla

Not awarding a premiership would have been a more suitable outcome IMO.

Looks like the majority of clubs have cancelled their presentation dinners etc based on the CA/SACA recommendation. (although majority would fall under the 100 limit specific by the govt).

I know where you're coming from but with 99% of the season played out there needs to be a Premier otherwise the entire season is a complete waste.

The bylaws of the Associations dictate the result so little can be done about it. It's not as if the Premiers are not deserving of the title, it's just a really shit situation as to how its been decided through no fault of their own. In situations like this there are no winners .
L Creek are on both sides of the fence with this, being awarded the B Grade flag but being denied the chance to go back to back in A Grade although it could be said they had their chance during the season to finish above Hahndorf which is true.
Very frustrating and disappointing for the guys being denied the chance to win whilst for the guys being awarded the premiership, it's a very hollow feeling.
Rather ironic that the whisper is that 2 of the the teams that were to compete in the GF Saturday have arranged a get together to discuss the season over a few beers which probably poses more of a risk than if they were out on the field playing :?
I know some will say it's just a game of cricket but the decision not to allow the GF s to be played have left quite a few players absolutely gutted.

Youd also have to feel for the teams that finished top but were beaten im a semi final by the 4th team who would be premiers if the decision was made a week earlier or the season had been planned to last a week longer

I've been on both sides of the ledger many a time, been in the box seat in a semi's and GF's when the rain or heat policy has kicked in and was the lower placed side, won a GF when the rain was intermittent all afternoon, it took a while to sink in and it was hard having a few beers with the other team, felt like a prick even though we were well in control.

40 overs in TVCA JackpotJim.

Did try 45 for one season back in 17/18, but clubs complained games went too late (we start at 1pm, not 12:30 like AEHCA)

Fair enough. a possible 90 overs does make for a very long day and 12.30 start is a must which isn't everyones cup of tea but i dont hear many complaints about it tho.
Still amazes me how Murray Towns are still doing 50 over matches :o Heard there was a motion to go back to 45 overs but it was defeated so majority of clubs must be happy with the long days :o

How are clubs looking for numbers this season?
Similar amount of teams nominated as previous seasons or less?

Last year there was 35 Senior Teams
This year looking at 37 Senior teams tho the C Grade hasn't yet been finalized

Looks like Wistow and Nairne are putting in an extra team each this season

A Grade looks very open again

With L Creek just winning the A & B Grade Footy Grand Finals today in the GSFL , quite a few of the lads will find it pretty challenging to be prepared for the opening game of the season next Saturday, going into it with basically no pre season and probably still carrying hangovers. :rolleyes: :vom:

Perfect conditions prevailed for the opening Round in A&EHCA

Strath out for redemption after last seasons Finals choke and in search of the 1st flag since 1997/98 got over last years Claytons Premier in Hahndorf comfortably and look to be one of the teams to beat again

Reports are that Lobey romped in over Wistow in by 9 wickets in a very shortened day,

Bremer Callingtion with a swag of recruits caused the 1st surprise of the season by edging out Woodside by 10 runs at Woodside. Who knows as the season goes on it might not prove to be a surprise. Any word on how handy Bremers' recruits are? Will be a good boost to the Comp if Cally who have been struggling for years return as a force to the comp to coincide with their oval and clubroom redevelopment.
Whilst for Woodside where are they at? Missing the finals last season for the 1st time since entering the A&EHCA since 2012/13 and having won only the 1 A Grade flag which they'd have felt is under achieving, are they a genuine contender this season or was last seasons end of season slump no coincidence ?

Nairne must have been jumping for joy on the release of the program to see they had drawn L Creek in Rd 1. Creeks have been winless in Rd 1 since 2004 :shock: Continually fielding very below strength teams the Creeks wern't helped this year with half their A Grade side playing footy Grand Finals only last Saturday. Winning them, being pissed for 3 days and not having a single training session saw all but Troy Blackwell decide to delay their season by 1 week. Still any team with one of the best all rounders in Country cricket in the last 2 decades in Ben Warren in your team, Creeks couldn't be discounted. With Jarrad Tait returning to the Razorbacks from Hahndorf, he got them off to a flyer with the bat to see them 2/123 at the drinks break. Warren then turned the game with 3 wickets in the 1st 4 balls after the drinks break and eventually Nairne were bowled out for a competitive 202. Creeks at 5/122 were in strife until Ben Warren then launched a viscous all out assault on the Nairne bowlers by spanking them for 10 sixes and 4 fours to race to 101* n.o. off only 64 balls to guide the Creeks to victory with 12 overs to spare :shock:

Any feedback on how balls stood up during the match with the NO Saliva or Sweat application policy?
The ball for the Creeks after 40 overs of Nairnes innings was in surprisingly good condition apart from a chunk taken out on 1 side from a customary Jarrad Tait 6 landing on some rocks on the side of the Nairne hill.

Great write up mate.
Yeah Lobey got up over us by 10 wickets in a very short day.
Hard to believe Strath haven't won a flag in that long as they have had some pretty good teams in that time.
