Forgive my stupidity but when a trotter is leading by a king brown, what is he leading by?
where and when did you hear that?
I’d dare say that’s a “long neck”.
Yep, I reckon you’re on the money, cheers.

I wonder what an echo is referred to?

The sound at Globe Derby when you cheer a winner ...

Nice drive by Gaita on the hot pot fave Like a Wildfire on Friday night in a heat of the SA Cup
She miss counted the laps and started to pull the fave up with a lap still to go
By the time she realised her mistake it was too late to regain momentum, surrendering the lead and the end of its ...

The option's given to us at a meeting with saca were...prepare extra wickets each week or tell the seniors to suck it up and put up with the damage on game day.
Maybe the big boys at CA should do some R & D on some sort of mats.
What would 3 hours of having a mat on them do yo the wicket. I don't ...

Surely that's more than suitable for that age group? How much damage can a 40kg boy do!

Umm Bedgey I don't believe you or I were ever 40kgs

Come on Senor, I'm pretty sure we both know how much he talks himself up

A few month's out before the first ball is bowled but going by this it's going to be a big build up to the season starting.

That was the actual lineup.

I was comparing our stats, pretty similar but you still get the mantle as R&C #1 spinner of all time lol.

So your saying we can't can't bat but are good consistent bowlers??

6x team grades.

Start season week later ...

Former Salisbury North and Rose and Crown player Clint Rowntree was diagnosed with a brain tumour back in October but has had successful surgery and is on the road to recovery.
