I would put Straight Talker in before him
Bowling looks a little weak, maybe bring that tall guy from Props in?

I am hearing there is a meeting this week for the program- Is that the case & if so when is it? Hopefully we get a set program for the whole year.
Wonder if the clubs follow thru or prove it was just one big waste of everyones time. Interesting.

My info says there is a meeting set for tomorrow night. Perhaps rather than being critical of the clubs not sponsored by Port we would go a long way to fixing problems if we recognized they do have concerns and look at how they can be fixed. I would really like to read people putting up sensible ideas that may help everyone getting back to playing good friendly enjoyable cricket.

Sell softies
Look for other sponsorship options
Refuse to play at Port
Get port to reimburse them in some way (ie. pay umpires fee for them)

Wasn't it proven selling alcohol without a licence is illegal anyway?

??? So Go The Greens do you have any news on if the meeting went ahead and what was the outcome? Did the clubs follow thru or did they give in like cowards? I know there is 8 clubs in the league so am interested in what happened and if any voting took place and what the tally was as there was a comment earlier by you I THINK that you thought they would give in? INTERESTING.

A quick call to my club chairman tells me there is already a new program out with only three clubs playing at the port oval.

A sad day for Port Pirie cricket, clubs not playing at an oval just because they can't sell beer which legally they can't do anyway.

These clubs that refuse to play at Port can not complain when Risdon / Wandies / Southport all average double what they do playing on terrible outfields such as Memorial oval.

I wonder whether by agreeing to play at Port oval and likely making the Port rooms a few bucks through our buying of expensive beers will we be able to use their nets? I think that is only fair.

Well i guess those guys deserve some credit in sticking by their word. Five clubs obviously voted not to play there and three wanted to, so all parties should be happy with the result then.

Maybe the clubs dont sell the beer they may just ask for a donation to their club and then give them a beer as a thankyou gift? ;)
How high have the totals been in the games that have been played at port so far this year?
As for the nets i suppose you will have to go and barter with them and strike a deal?
