No Hopkins for WYC also hurt their chances, by far their best bowler.

Massive effort from ICC to make the GF after being promoted from section 2 last season.
From my point of view the biggest result on the weekend was Coromandel knocking off Belair by 2 wickets, a massive result for Coro after just pipping Happy Valley at the post to gain forth spot. It's funny how cricket (and sport for that matter) works sometimes. We had a Belair player sledge us saying we will be in Section 3 next season, we survived relagation and now Belair, clearly being the best team in the comp and looking like being in the best shape of going up to section 1 lose the semi final to forth position at home. If we don't move to the PDCA we will play Belair once again next season and our little rivalry will continue.
I was curious of Belair's recent Section 2 finals results-
18/19, finshed top, lost semi final
17/18, finshed forth, lost semi
16/17, finshed second, lost GF
15/16, finshed second, lost GF
14/15, finshed forth, lost semi
Brodie Mangin had a great season for them taking 52 wickets, hat's off to him for that. He bowled 27 out of 53 overs in the semi final!

Those still playing, what's the standard like from 5 years ago and 10 years ago ( if you're old enough to remember )?

I wont comment on the standard of Section 1, as I have no idea.
Section 2 However seems stronger, as there are now mostly A grade teams in this section.
However, it still seems the old heads are still the better players, or at least perform consistantly. Rowe from ANA, Brokensha from M/PK, Mangin/Tansell Belair.
The lower you go in sections, it becomes lopsided, as some C grade teams are up against A grade teams. Makes it tough to blood kids through here.
On Belair, what happens when their 2 bowlers retire? Where do they pull their players from? No juniors to speak of.
I'm sort of glad they got rolled, as they are a bit mouthy, but Coromandel are in no position to comment about onfield behaviour and the spirit of cricket.

Played for Coro as a lad then saw the iSight and went up the hill to scibs ... What amazes the most is with Belair as well now the amount of side in the area inc. flagies and happy valley . Scibs Jr. Build on the rise as well !
