So wat came out of the meeting anything interesting?

From what I've been told
Strykers, Risdon and SP are doing pink stumps
Council fees going up
Next season no double headers
Juniors looking at Saturday morning games

[Squids]

Don't know if there are enough ovals for juniors to play on Saturday mornings. Sunday morning were always a struggle though.

[cheetah]

I think you will find PPCA might push B grade 2 sundays. That is what my sweet chilli sauce told me.

[Squids]

That would end the competition.

PPCA A Grade ladder:

Props 53 (RR 1.047)
Wandies 53 (RR 0.868)
Sollies 36
Southport 18
Risdonsz 6

Thanks for update almost forgot about a grade. So Prop v Wand GF?

[Lionsfourth]

How about putting some pitches in schools for juniors?

[cheetah]

That would end the competition.

I hope they add a 20/20 round next year. Maybe lessen the double up rule. Fees will go up, thats given. I think there was talk of Clubs with just B grade teams paying more than 2 club teams. So this would affect strykers, bats, sharks and central hawks.

That made me laugh.

I'd rather play Sat but Sun wouldn't really bother me.

Back on to the juniors, I remember there being so many ovals to play on - Airdale, Pirie West, C1 and C2, Port Germein, Port. I think the 90's produced a lot of great cricketers but these days people under 17s have other things to do.

[cheetah]

Does anyone know of the current state of the shark cage? I think there was talk about putting pitches at st. marks high or christian school. But i think all this was, was talk. I remeber playing grade cricket at Risdon high and ferme oval. Can anyone think of another ground 2 play on? So many jobs for kids 2 work at these days with all the fast food outlets. When KFC came here that was the biggest thing since finger buns!

[Squids]

There would be scores of 500 at Risdon school oval, the pitch would need replacing as well. So I think that oval can be crossed off the list.

St Marks school is an option, would have to convince the school a pitch is worth it considering they still play junior football there, I think.

I think Port Germein want to play games in Germein?

[SFR85]

How could I forget Ferme Oval? Prickle paradise.

I think they fixed that oval, but I doubt the school would want cricket being played there with the prison like fence they have around it.

Ferme oval was recently done up so it is now better then the so called lawn at c1 and c2

There were talks this year of playing there next year but that's all I have heard

John Pirie Secondary should be good with the money that's been pumped into it.

[SFR85]

Jesus didn't work on Sunday's so I don't think B Graders should either.

I am sure some world cup players attend church on Sunday mornings so this may result in later starts.
