Creeks outplayed by Lobey and Nairne pure and simple.
The fact that the last 2 Minor Premiers have been eliminated in straight sets is simply a reflection of just how even the competition is in A&EHCA which is fantastic. The fact that teams of the quality of Woodside and Strath miss the finals is also a reflection of the relative strength of the comp.
If Strath had made 4 more runs in their last minor round game , they would have finished 2nd and Nairne wouldn't have made the finals . As it turns out Strath missed and Nairne are playing off for the Flag.
With talks of a Super League being formulated in the near future, i'm not real sure what the advantages are for Senior Cricket in A&EHCA unlike Junior Cricket which looks to have many positives.
