Barossa & Light Cricket Association 2010-11

[Jim05]

Poor WAC must be suffering from amnesia. Doesnt remember the ass kicking handed out in rd 1.
On top because they have only lost 1 game.
Just worry about your own team going back to the ressies

[TimmiesChin]

If you don't mind days I'm changing my green/lp tip to light pass. All other tips remain the same.

Light pass came from nowhere to knock off greenock. Chasing 158 they were 5/60 and 7/90 but the tail end swung hard to get to 177. Passing the score 8 down. Good win with a pile of late withdrawels.

ANGO SMASHED TAN 5/229 V 190 ALL OUT. ANGO BATTED FIRST TAKING 110 OFF THE LAST 10 OVERS B BURGESS MAKING 88 OFF 46 BALLS. I WILL LEAVE THE ENTIRE MATCH SUMMARY TO U UTP. I WILL ADD THOUGH THAT THE CRUCIAL WICKET OF BORIS WALL WAS TAKEN BY THE BEST ONE DAY BOWLER IN THE COMP

[Jim05]

Sandy rolled for 103 chasing 171. The lads must have forgotton to use their bat as evidenced by the 7 LBW's in their innings.

[TimmiesChin]

Looks like WAC's prediction was a bit off with the smashing of Gilbert Valley - far from a smashing, it was in fact a loss.

Word out of Gilbert is that GC were ordinary, cant bat, cant bowl, cant field

Look out here comes Norms conspiracy theory

[daysofourlives]

Norm, congrats mate on the new arrival, hopefully for the baby's sake that it has taken after mum not dad

My tips this week:

Sandy over Nuri in a thriller with Norms adrenalin running high he will smoke another 100 plus off the Nuri attack as per last year
Angaston hopefully will be able to get over the magpies this week which would make second spot extremely tight between 3 teams
Greenock have the ability to surprise a few teams this year and will be to strong for the yipp yahs
GV v GC is an interesting one. Can I hedge my tip, If the rumour is correct that both Jimmy Vands and Hosko are playing then I will back the rodeo riders but if they both do not play then I think the pussies will get home comfortably (let me know if I can Norm/Days whoever is running the show these days)

South are super keen to get back up into the top grade and won't let this game slip against Truro
Freeling are travelling alright at the moment and think at home will have enough to beat Lyndoch
The Old Foes at it again, Kapunda will be my tip but don't be surprised if there is an upset

Unlucky UTP il mark you down as incorrect in the GC v GV game

No conspiracy there days, if you pad up often enough fair chance you will be fired.
Was interesting though that the ump could find time to text on his mobile whilst a batsman was taking his guard

Travelled the 8.5Km from my house to the Tanunda oval on Saturday to watch the Blues and the Maggies go head to head. Thought that I couldn't miss a top four clash plus the missus was away Christmas shopping so gave me plenty of time to sit on the decky with a beer or two and watch the game. Young Jobby Burgess finally came up trumps on a call and decided that Ango will have a bat (found out after the match that this is the 1st time the boys have batted 1st this year). Surprised to see the out of form Kurtz open up with the old man doecke but kurtz blew away the cobwebs and started looking really good with hard hitting and certainly looked on his way to a big score until old man doecke refused a run and left kurtz strandard in the middle of the deck for 25. Looked to me that Doecke was leaning on his walking frame and not backing up at all. Rathjen and Doecke then guided the Ango boys to be 1/70ish at the half way mark. Play resumed after drinks and the boys started a bit sluggish until Rathjen tried to up the tempo which cost him his wicket in the 24th over. Doecke left the middle not long after playing one back on for 40 which again was a good solid start from him. Then enter the dragon, this went from a cricket match to watching a Bruce Lee movie as Benny Burgess punnished and slayed the Tanunda attack to all parts of the ground. Talking to the big man Kocho he said he counted the balls Ben faced whilst scoring and apparently hit 88 of 46 balls and while all this was going on, up the other end young Nick Pech was also getting into the action and hit 34no at a run a ball. The boys finished of the innings 5/229, with 110 of these being scored in the final 10 overs. As the boys came out to bowl I thought that I couldn't see big Klemmy out there so I strolled around and asked about the big fella and apparently he pulled out Friday due to falling of his bike. I also heard it was his bucks night so looks a little fishy to me!!!! I still was confident but when Bretty Burgess snapped his rubber band only 2.5 overs into his opening spell I thought the boys were in big trouble. The boys persisted but Bo Wall and a tall bloke from Tanunda settled in and looked as if they were going to steal the game away from Ango until the Kochmeister was able to snare Bo Wall with a beautifully flighted off break that looked to cramp Bo up a bit and didn't get anywhere near the penetration on his shot and was caught in the deep. A real bit of masterful bowling to firstly beat the best batsmen in the comp with flight but then also just enough spin to cause the miss hit. After drinks Brett Burgess walked out with keeping pads on along with his brother and to my surprised they were swapping after each over so that Ben could have a trundle. In the end Brett continued to keep and Ben bowled and took 3 wickets and the boys were able to bowl Tanunda out for 190. Good win by the boys and looks as if the top four are almost settled as the bottom sides are now 3 games away from fourth spot. Need a few upsets and results going certain ways to change the four I think.

UTP, you forgot to mention our discussion whilst on our deck chairs. We agreed the 3 votes should have gone to Burgess Snr.
Also bumped into Burgess Jnr sitting on Santas lap at the magic cave yesterday, heard him asking for a new hammy.

[scud]

i was lucky enough to see ben burgess with the bat on saturday and the bloke had one of those innings that you had to see to believe. I want to know (if anyone can help me) who opened the bowling with jobby? Left arm swing bowler? Looked a handy replacement to klemm. Also another thing as i would be ango's number 3 supporter after under the pack and the duke is how frustating is young blenkiron i have heard from many in the comp that this kid could be the best bowler in the comp in another year or two. But bowled 6 overs only on sat with 8 wides. And i seen him bowl last two games and he has bowled beautifully but as most 18 year olds might just not quiet have the consistentcy going just yet. I did notice grumpy ben burgess swearing and cursing at everyone though, his brother did not look impressed at all. Overall very enjoyable game of cricket 430 runs scored for the day 16 wickets. Probably feel bad they didn't charge me at the gate to get in.

I'm guessing your thinking of Tim Hermann.

Don't think he's played a lot of cricket over the past decade, but was a regular in junior rep sides through the late eighties/early nineties.

Timmy was a man child, started shaving in under 12's

Ango had a good 12's lineup back in the day, with the likes of Tim Hermann, and Craig Harvey, and of course Mike Teakle for some mid innings support.

M Teakle was a great striker of the ball and a seamer.
I'm sure Timmy would be delighted to be mentioned in the same breath as M Teakle.
