Not as deceitful as that time the Adelaide CC put out the letter to its members supporting the SACA’s forced merger of West Torrens and Port Adelaide, without advising West Torrens.

At least you are acknowledging the deceitfulness.

I just hope that home curators do not prepare 'roads' for the finals, knowing that the away team needs to bowl them out to win the semi.


You are living in la-la land BP if you don’t think Sturt and TTG will prepare absolute roads. May as play the games on Henley Beach Rd :shock:

But that’s the system we have, as WT found out last year when Uni did the same thing. The sooner we follow Victoria Premier Cricket where you can only bat on for 16 overs the following day, leaving 80 overs, the better.

Even though WT made 4/426 at Sturt this year, they could only take six wickets and the game finished in a draw. Sturt’s bowling is terrible, main bowler has taken three wickets for the year at an average of nearly 90 :shock: But their batting is strong, and as minor premier they are in the box seat if they can bat 130 plus overs both weeks of the finals.

Interesting this one as Kensington prepare both wickets (i.e. Jake Brown).


Browny Or Greeny as he is known this week could not stop the tap running at TTG this morning. Looks like the mower run out of juice as well.

Which pales into insignificance when compared to their attempted hostile takeover of SDCC last year and the residual damage since

Takes two to tango in that situation. The SDCC board were in favour and severely underestimated their membership base. Rightfully so they fell on their swords.

Are all scores in though?

Out of that membership base who were so vocal in not merging, how many are actually "on the tools" and helping the club? I suspect not a lot? :roll:

They are supposed to be, but can see couple of issues.

Getting Kensington to do their 2nd Grade will take a miracle :D

Sturt and Glenelg 2nd Grade will have to borrow Woodville’s as at their ground, should not be an issue.

Kensington/TTG may need to borrow one from SACA if they want to do their second games at Col Waite and Bulkana Oval.

I’m not disagreeing with anytime you say here Eags.

As a parent from 800odd clicks away, I’d like to watch my lad and his mates.

If they get through to the GF I will be making the trip across once again.

Are clubs who are able to access their high performance squad members then required to announce it?

They wouldn't have known the players could get a flight out - if you want the red carpet maybe put in a request for just that to someone who cares.
How many more free rides do you want ?

As was previously commented, if you want to attack other clubs by supporting specific mergers on your website then don't expect them to genuinely give a hoot about your need to get a heads up every-time someone is released from High performance to play in a grade game.

Just be grateful they still allow you to participate - if it's too tough then find something else to do.

Interesting Josh Roach named in the 2nd Grade for Glenelg. Played Round 1 and 2 in 2nd Grade (last game 23/10/21) and the rest of season in 1st Grade.

Don’t know how this is allowed, obviously had the permit request approved. I know teams have to put in their teams for Finals, and they would have listed Alex Carey, etc but just does not seem right to me.

No skin off my nose, but just generally speaking it has always annoyed me how this sort of stuff is allowed, and a player who plays all year is left out (or luckily gets to play 3rds this week).

Would they have been able to get one of Irvine or Roach down?

McSweeney
Higgins
Scott
Winter
Bullimore
Irvine
Kerr
Croom
Pudney
Doggett
Bowering

That's 11 even without Carey

Correct TC, that’s how it works. Just always hated how it happens. Thought there always used to be a rule though that had to play a certain number of games after Xmas in that grade to play finals? Obviously that rule no longer exists :shock:

Good luck to your son, fantastic weather for this weekend, hopefully they get thru and we get similar conditions next weekend.

With Kensy at full strength (although noticed Dalton and Matchett out - COVID related maybe??) - what grade is he playing tomorrow?

Heard a story today, that 3 West Torrens players were reported on Sunday just gone vs Adelaide CC.
Players were all told of reports on the day. However, the reporting umpire refused to put the reports in to SACA. Which caused problems in the office on Monday.
As a result an e-mail was sent to clubs reminding them that there will be ZERO tolerance in regards to poor behaviour from now on.



These stories make me laugh if true.

They’re roads all season it’s not like the wickets become flat for finals. Perhaps WT need to improve their bowling?
