Both teams who were promoted to A1 had good wins with Flinders Park accounting for Princes and Reynella getting over SPOC in a low scoring game. I was surprised by both those results. Trinity had a good win over Walkerville and Ingle Farm snuck home against Marion. I believe Pooraka v OSCA and Grange v Para Hills didn't get away.
Interesting Pooraka didn't play given they have covers now.
I think the pitch was ok, but the surrounds were too wet. Must be frustrating to invest money, time and effort into covering a pitch and still not be able to play.
Did they cover the whole block or just the game wicket?

Going by that description it's only a single cover.
Heard Trinity in the A3's had a similar issue. Umpires unwilling to proceed due to an unsatisfactory section of the square after waiting almost 2 hours to come to that decision

Not sure I'd be appealing for that one if I were the bowler....
That's bad lol. Watching the rest of the video (Didn't know Dartfish did cricket too- The second wicket of the first opening bowler (I'm assuming that is Pannach looking the the scorecard on MyCricket?) is a good one for his highlights reel, off stump cartwheeling towards the wicket-keeper. And how's the second change bowler I think it is (Hauge) taking a wicket off a no ball, spewing!
Would be interesting viewing if all games were recorded like that. We have all played cricket long enough to understand how frustrating it can be sometimes. I got caught down leg side off an inswing bowler in a game to make the finals, never got near the ******* thing. I was bemused they appealed, on your bike son. 6 for sweet FA overnight chasing 130 odd but thankfully we got up. I've given some rippers to umps, this bloke got a beauty. He pulled the pin on umpiring that year, had a shocker.

We used to have one ump ask for our games because one of the wives used to put on a fair spread for home games, he made a couple of shockers just before the break and I turned to him and said on the way off "Don't you dare go near our food".
He leaned against a downpipe looking at the table and with a couple of minutes to go before end of the tea break I nodded to him and said "Go on then man, sorry".
Two LBW's in the first over back suggests I did the right thing.

When it goes viral perhaps.
Poor sportsmanship.
I recon Reynella won the "Spirit of Cricket" award recently! A few umps might start changing their votes seeing this effort....
Danny Southern telling Plugga he's fat, I'd like to see that!
Ive watched this over and over. Now i know I'm biased but looked to me like he knocked it onto the stumps. Batter had a good view and he didn't complain, just walked off.

Thought you were joking at first, but here you go. Ball was dropped well before he touches the stumps

I stand corrected. Only looking at it on my phone.

It's was only round one and the cheating has started, someone's in for a long year.
