Commiserations to the Centres and Keswick, Keswick made some bold selections and they didnt pay off. Going on what Westmisnster were saying in our last game, they dont even know whats happening. Unless they get some assistance from the school player wise, they cant play ATCA because of the 2 team minimum, and they struggle to field a B grade at the best of times.

Don't think ATCA has a two team minumun rule. Unley Old Scholars started a team up this year and have only 1 side.

Thats the impression the Westminster boys have.Time will tell.

Bazza i dont think there is a 2 team minimum, however i think, as WOS want to, if your club plays in the 1 day comp, then you must have a side in the 2 day comp with ATCA. So, because they want a 1 day side, they need 2 teams because of that rule!

Just looking at the ladder, and its official that SR have lost 6 points for the non attendance to 3 meetings and have now finished bottom of section 1, and 2nd bottom of section 2.

I would assume now, that Warradale will be promoted if they win this week against a strong Keswick B grade, and maybe even if they lose the GF as they have finished top and made it to the GF.

surely warradale have to win for them to go up. We made 4 grand finals in 5 years but never went up for being runners up.

Yeah? That's pretty rough. IMO, I'd like to see a team relegated each year and a new team brought up where it makes sense to. 2 reasons:
1. it should provide even more incentive to field your best possible section 1 team every week
2. doing the "wrong thing" as a club (loss of points for fines/no attendance etc) has a real consequence

The only caveat I see is if the section 2 side is strong enough to play section 1 cricket. As for this year, South Road were very competitive and going by their pure cricket ability, probably deserve to stay up. But, IMO, it shouldn't just be about that.

If Warradale aren't keen, I reckon Belair would be worthy despite finishing 4th. What's the worst that happens? They finish bottom and they go back down...

Roseboy, i agree with everything you wrote in that! Altho, belair is a fair trip for me personally, i dont think it would hurt them or the association for them to come up.

If WOS do go, and Warradale arnt keen on Section 1, then Belair will come up. Im sure there the type of side that will take it with both arms and give it a fair dinkum crack!

Also, interesting to note, in the other section 4 game, that i dont think has got a mention, Clapham, after finishing top with 3 outrights, 6 wins, 1 rain affected draw, and 1 loss, got skittled for 30 and smashed in the semi. Surely they are going to be considered for promotion to division 3 after such a year??

which bold selections were these Bazza ?

[bazza1]

I should of said Brave, not bold
I was referring to young Stinger getting dropped for the final and for not playing an extra bat. Im of the opinion that in finals you need to bat along way down.

[The Dark Knight]

The section 1 GF on the weekend is shaping up like the NRL's final last year. We have the bolter, Coro like Paramatta, has had a red hot last half to the season. Then we have the bechmark in ANA, who like the Strom have been consistant all year is the now the favourite but I think no one will be surprised if Coro get up. Then we have WYC and Keswick who like the Dragons and Bulldogs finish 1 and 2 respectively and just fell down at the last hurdle.

Not to mention chucking a tantrum when getting given LBW and throwing your bat and gloves multiple times. Sledging is sledging out on the field and that's just cricket. Physically abusing players isn't

Firstly Agree we were out played on the day 100% by some very good bowling and if you cant hit 77 you deserve to lose.
The player in question was told off by the skipper and went and apologized to both umps before end of 1st days play. Was not good form at all. We are no angels either.

But after all my years of playing cricket i have NEVER encounted such disgracefull behaviour by a cricket side in regards to sledging. I dont care if your on a cricket field, it was seriously unreal. If you tell people unprovoked to "fu@# off" your "fu&*ing pathetic" and worse CONSTANTLY people will eventually react physically. Im not saying its right but it took every ounce of me not to do the same after the abuse i copped while batting.

And before any1 says it went both ways this is incorrected 100%. As the capitain made it clear before the game espcially due to the 2 very experianced umpires that nobody was allowed to swear at all to the shiedow side. And that was followed, trust me i know this for a FACT. However He was dissapointed in some of MPCC crowd(not players) but has no control over them while feilding.

You guys at shiedow no exactly the people responsable for your bad name and so do the other teams and so do the umpires. Its about time you made some changes and
got rid of them or at least have guys who can control them. I could see the young guys following there lead and started in on it as well.
But Im not suggesting that all is bad down there at all.
Speaking to the umpire at length after the game he was also disgusted in those same individuals and what went on out there and has had several issues with them in the past. Hopefully his opnion will carry some weight at your club as i know mine wont.

This sounds like sour grapes i know but after Sundays preformance and you telling us to "suck eggs" on this forum i had to have my say.

[Deep Heat]

Well said dundee12 the way i see it if a chiuaua keeps on barking u are going to kick it eventually no matter how small , defenceless and annoying it is thats what seems to have happened and it has to happen or the little chiuaua will keep on yapping hopefully he has learnt his lesson .

As i said, Im not here to defend any comments that were made on the field, as I was not out there to know exactly what was said. The team were informed on Thursday night of who the umpires were going to be and that they should watch what is said on the field. As I was only a spectator, I cannot comment on the on-field happenings.

Noone said the sledging went both ways, we simply made referal to the player throwing his bat the whole way off the field and also the physical abuse after the game. Again, your team was not innocent in the whole issue. Provoked or not, it is still an attack.

I also believe Russ Hewitt is umpiring the Sect 4 GF this weekend and has been informed of the previous game. I am sure Russ will do the right thing if he feels anything is out of control or outside what normally happens on the field.

[Tugga]

Who are the umps for this weeks games ?

[Westsider]

what happened to wilsey Westsider??
he played a game early for ya in the B grade and then never played a game for the rest of the year
he hit 50 something aswell?

Too busy at the alby and portland telling everyone how good a footballer he is

[Westsider]

I should of said Brave, not bold
I was referring to young Stinger getting dropped for the final and for not playing an extra bat. Im of the opinion that in finals you need to bat along way down.

Yeh I was suprised to see him playing after playing every game in sect1 this year. I'm sure had he played A's it would have made a huge difference as he's a gun in the field too. At least I finally got 1 decent wicket this year though

Stinger got dropped cause he was out of form and yeah a extra bat would've helped the situation, but we did think we had enough with the batting order we went in with.

dundee champ u r a little sook!! do u need mummy 2 hold your hand when u play sport against men????
what behaviour is putting people off the whole club???
in the heat of battle u just had 2 stand up that wlda shut em up but u didnt so ........ SUCK EGGS!

[Small fish BIG pond!]

oh n what umpires think bothers people very little they still gota give you out!
unless u r close 2 an umpire mmm a little more then a friend maybe??? that wld make sense

[caleb777]

so who is everyones tip for the section 1 gf?? my head says glenelg ana will be as consistent as ever and get up. but my gut says that coro might play above themselves one last time and get up. i think rowe is the key, if he has a good game then i think coro have no hope. and basso cant fail for the third time in a week surely. i think coros batting weaknesses will undo them this week. even tho they have in my opinion the best bowler in the comp in lourens. o malley may have the most wickets but lourens is the more damaging and attacking bowler

I agree, head says Glenelg due to their experience and all round quality. But i really hope Coro (although i dont think there in the best three sides), they have stood up when it counted and it would be great for them to end their 55 years sect 1 premiership drought. I wonder if the game against us would take anything out of Glenelg ANA? That is definitely the most intense game iv ever been involved in (and thats including the 2 GF's iv played in).

As Caleb said, Coro's lack of batters will show this week, especially if Glenelg use the same tactics as they did against us, where O'Malley attacked the stumps, and Rowe bowled wide outside off with everyone on the off side. I cant see Coro making enough runs if thats the case.

Going against the trend, and i believe whoever bowls first will win!

I tend to agree. There's a lot of older heads at Glenelg and a lot of them have been here before. Like the past 2 games, Rowe will be the difference IMO.

Having said that, my earlier call of whoever bats first will win clearly shows I know bugger all with the 2 semi finals being won by the team batting 2nd

I thought last year's SF was more than enough reason to not always bat first!

Fair enough AF but i think last years GF shows that runs on the board, no matter how little, are extremely hard to chase in big games! I think if Coro bat first, they wont make 100 and then its game over IMO

Well I say see what the conditions are. If it is a day with good temp, cloud cover and humid, bowl everytime. David Neil reminds us that all bar 1 of our GF wins have been won batting 2nd!
