My mail is that he was opposed to cutting a team so by stepping down do we assume that SACA are actually going to go through with this?

I didn't think they'd actually pull the trigger to be honest.



Probably opposed it because it would reduce the number of past player functions he could attend ;)

It certainly is significant. Very interesting to see what happens now. Any SACA Board member with a semblance of conscience should be doing the same thing.

Good guess, and probably correct.
But it would appear another club and saca have been well and truly involved over many months to a year or two in arranging this.

SACA press release:

The South Australian Cricket Association (SACA) can today advise that Andrew Sincock has stepped down from his role as Vice President on the SACA Board, effective immediately.

Sincock advised SACA Board Members at last night’s monthly meeting.

Sincock was elected to the SACA Board in 2000 and was elected unanimously as Vice President in 2013.

More recently, Sincock has chaired the Adelaide Strikers Committee since 2013 during a successful period in which the team finished top of the table in consecutive seasons and set new attendance records for the BBL.

“After 40 years in cricket and almost 16 years as a Board Member, the time is right for me to step down in my role,” Sincock said.

“I have always said that if you leave somewhere that is in better shape than when you started, you have done your job; I can certainly step down knowing SACA is in better shape.

“Cricket has provided me with an unforgettable journey as a player, coach and administrator and I want to thank the SACA and the Adelaide Strikers for giving me the opportunity to fulfill my great passion.”

Sincock has been involved with SACA for more than 49 years, first as a player in the State under 16’s before making his first-class debut against Western Australia in 1974.

He played 39 first-class matches for South Australia, taking 98 wickets at an average of 38.94 and made 625 runs at 20.83.

He was the opening bowler for the victorious 1981/82 South Australian Sheffield Shield team.

Sincock was also Head Coach of South Australia from 1997-98 and spent time as the Head Coach of the AIS Commonwealth Bank Cricket Academy where he coached the likes of Greg Blewett, Justin Langer, Damien Martyn and Shane Warne.

SACA President, Andrew Sinclair today said, “On behalf of the Association, I would like to thank Andrew for his outstanding service to cricket in South Australia across almost 50 years.

“Personally, he has been a constant source of support and has provided a strong voice in the SACA Boardroom; his presence will be missed.”

Our club president spoke with Evil today. He maintains the merger talks have nothing to do with his decision as its been on his mind for 6 months or more. Much like his playing career (think he finished up playing C's at Kensington?) he simply got out of bed 1 morning last week and thought I don't want to do this anymore. Very much looking forward to having his first summer holiday in 49 years is his words.

Interestingly one SANFL club has approached him already about joining their board.......

What do you mean sorry? Which club?

Arranging a merger between two other clubs?

Think Woodvillewarrior has said too much already!!

This will be a massive story and is totally disgraceful by SACA (and the Club involved).

Unfortunately cannot give any hints at this stage, just waiting to see the response from SACA re the removal of a club/ merger etc.

Clubs been told will hear the decision by "end of the week", so assuming this means tomorrow?

If this news is bad, then the you know what will hit the fan when this story hits the papers and tv!!

Your not wrong. I've heard all about it today when up from the country and in the CBD. Wait until the Tiser and TV stations & pollies get hold of this. Its the talk of the town ATM

Agreed it's a disgrace whats happened. I wonder when the s**t will hit the fan? Sooner rather than later is my guess.
