Can anyone tell me what has happened to Ben Cameron? Just noticed he hasn't played a game for TTG this year and he obviously isn't playing for SA at the moment. Is he injured again?

knee problems- has been a chronic thing for cameron over the past few years

[BigDaddy]

cheers stumps. I thought his operation a couple of years fixed a lot of that. Poor bugger. How long is he out for?

[blink]

SA 9/219

Gillespie 24*
Cullen 16*

SA still trail VIC by 219 runs.

Dizzy up to his normal tricks!

[heater31]

no matter how many clubs there are they will still be the same players representing SA. yes they may have better competition and tougher opposition at club level but they only played 1 day of club cricket prior to this game so how does it matter what standard the game was,they have close to six months of intense training trial games etc. They had trial games against WA and QLD to harden them up. i think the only way it will change is if a few bad eggs move on, and they pick blokes with the right character and temperament not the most stylish lofted drive or best bloke

Stumps they have had one 2 day game to warm up of club cricket and in Cullen and Dizzy's case it was against the blind school prentending to be the Prospect District CC. they had Delvins the Ressies Magarey Meadlist who hasn't played for two seasons playing for crying out loud.

Clearly its a High Performance department problem the thing is that the people running that show don't know if ther ar*ehole is bored or punched and the whole SA cricket suffers beacuse of it. Underage sides continually underperform year in year out with the exception of the U/17 last season who won the tournement. I have a little knowledge of how this department is run from the women's perspective as my sister is currently in the u/19 squad and from that side it is a complete mess. Rod Marsh is a cricket coach and his current role at SACA is not suited to his talents and the systems needs a complete overhaul from the u/13 level upwards to the senior team

[bulldogs]

if sa cricket is to become strong the saca needs to make some tough decisions and forget about the clubs they are just looking after themselves. Why do we have two under 14 and 16 grades arent we better off having on in each grade so the best kids play and filter the rest back to there local clubs. I see other states who have a younger squad then the blebbacks come on much better look at qld side for the 1st game. SACA MAKE SOME HARD DECISIONS and not the same old same old.

[abber]

Under 15 State Side lost in grand final to NSW in March this year.

Fair bit of nepotism goes on with the selection of some of these squads. Sons of former Australian, SA and A grade players get a fair leg up.

[Dogwatcher]

same in any sport.

[jackpot jim]

SA All Out 249.
Dizzy top scored 49
Cullen 20*

SA All Out 249.
Dizzy top scored 49
Cullen 20*

NostraMALdamus was only 1 run out on his prediction! Excellent work

Good final stands by Bailey, Cullen and Gillespie - VICs lead is now 189
SA still in with a chance of salvaging a draw...

[stan]

Good work by dizz, Cullan and Baily in the tail. Showed a bit of grit.

Tough decisions need to be made by the SACA and soon. Our final score of 249 flatters us it really does.

[matt]

Signs are not good but I will be giving this side at least three games before I start calling for wholesale change.
Will be interesting if Gillespie and Harris can get amongst them in the next session. 3 or 4 for 40 odd??? Cricket's a funny game.

Gillespie is capable yes but Harris?. Hes a solid bowler but as a front line quick im not so sure. We would need some fire and brimstone from the quicks for that to happen.

[mighty_tiger_79]

Lets talk about the Failure of the so called HIGH PERFORMANCE mob at SACA
What ever they are doing down there, they are certainly mis-named.

maybe the SACA ahould be renamed the WACA!

[mighty_tiger_79]

the selectors have seen them in the nets and watched them for months they will know who is batting better and keeping better. so give graham manou a chance.

MANPOO has had enough chances

DEITZ should be in the squad

young WADE for the VICS will make runs this game. Wait for him in the one-dayers......[/quote]

NOT a bad prediction that!

[Pup]

Phil Jaques sends a timely reminder to the Australian selectors by making another century. Currently 111*

NSW 1/198

Over 300 runs in front of WA with a day and a half to play.
