Yeah he's retired from the A's. Might play C's/D's I think.

Wouldn't surprise me if Kelvin Smith goes looking for a change of scenery. I'm told Tasmania have approached him in the past, so it wouldn't surprise me if they had got in touch. Zampa not getting a CA contract means SACA might not be able to hold on to the some being spoken to quite as easily too. Kelvin smith leaving would be my guess, if I had to pick one.

I will disagree about your point number 1, I dont think the role of a premier club is to cast the net far and wide to get kids playing cricket, this is the role of all small suburban and country clubs across the state. Premier clubs role is to develop the kids that show above average promise at the lower levels,
I think the current scattergun approach of the Jets ( only one i can comment on) where any kid can rock up and more than likely get a game is counter productive. This leads to kids thinking they are better than what they are and when inevitably they are cut it leads to chat amongst parents etc that isnt favourable towards the Jets, again counter productive. Is this approach taken because there is too many junior teams to fill??
Do the better clubs have guys go and watch the suburban junior cricket and identify kids they are interested in? As far as i know the Jets dont. Would it be beneficial for some funding in this area to identify junior talent?

According to that article, WT and PA are committed to entering merger discussions - which is what was needed to be decided by April 8th.
Over 260 people at the two WT Presentations (Senior Men/Women & Juniors) over the last weekend. WT and PA (and previously Woodville) volunteers doing an amazing job keeping the clubs together despite Bradshaw and the SACA Board doing their best to try and destroy them. What a shameful period this will be for those SACA Board Members and the South Australian Cricket Association in general.

Interesting non commital comment from port Adelaide.
My mail is that WT are desperate to merge whereas Port are going to take their chances standing alone.
A big big decision to be made by SACA - do they have the stones to follow through?

Either you're trying to stir up sh*t or you've got very bad mail. Why would either club be desperate to merge? If WT were so desperate, why would they have knocked back Prospect (allegedly) a few weeks back?
I may end up homeless, but I'd bet my house these two clubs will still be stand alone next season. SACA is under fire from all directions at the moment and it is only going to get worse for them in the near future.

You really think the SACA are gonna do a full backflip on this? Surely not?
