Pretty funny from a former Centrals supporter.

I've looked back through the years. Watched all available video footage and read all the reviews. Analysed how they have played at different venues, their line ups and how they have played in all weather conditions.

I have reached a conclusion.

Kiss will be shit.

Bizball at it's finest.

I was thinking we need to up the run rate to get a bonus point...

You would think that just a forward prod with no footwork in the previous 5 balls would have him ready for a change of length.

Perhaps not just you. Thoughts only.

Daylight savings, start and end, are "measurable events" so we often say this or that started about/around when daylight savings or when the cold weather came in because it is something that triggers a memory.

GP's will tell you "how long have you had this pain in your foot" and get told some time such as 4/5 weeks, couple of months or when I got my new car or since I started riding my bike to work. First part vague the last part a narrowed timeline. Cause and effect or just a memory trigger? Could be neither or could be one or could be all.

Going by what you have said, all of this indicates that you are doing the right things in order to get the best (diet, sleep, general lifestyle) but you feel that generally speaking you are not benefitting from it. Daylight savings may have a small change on you for a while but at the end of the day it is just a clock change which your body clock adjusts to.

If you started getting on the gas heavily, sleeping less and eating junk I would suggest that after a matter of days you would feel worse. You may and I stress may be feeling the effects of older age. It happens to us all who are lucky enough to get there.

Norwood boys on the prowl yesterday advise that they are confident that Boyd will stay. They did mention that a purge of coaches (basically all except Rawlings and Saywell) as well as a large number from the junior and womens programs has come as quite a shock.

All out 293. Take that after being sent in.

This should be the last time an event like this is held in India. Crowd numbers deplorable.

Made 399.

A good bowling performance and we will get a good boost to the NRR.

It is actually the biggest ever win in the WC. Previously 275.

A young footy player has been banned from the Balaklava Football and Netball Club for three years following an incident involving drugs during grand final celebrations.

A letter sent out on September 24, by the club’s secretary Kerry Williams, informed members, families, players, life members and sponsors of the incident.

“It is with much regret that we write to inform you that the current Management and Operating Committees met this week to manage an allegation of player misconduct,” the letter reads.

“The incident occurred after the grand final celebrations on Sunday 17th September and has resulted in a player receiving a 3 year ban from the Balaklava Football and Netball Club for breaching the SANFL member protection policy.”

Club president Mark Heaslip told The Advertiser on Monday the incident involved a player and misconduct with drugs.

“Drugs are in the community but they don’t need to be in the change rooms,” he said.

Mr Heaslip said all committees involved made a unanimous decision to ban the player.

“It’s important for clubs to protect their junior players,” he said.

The club president said they wouldn’t be “pursuing any other direction” and had dealt directly with the player.

A SANFL spokeswoman said they were aware of the incident.

“SANFL was made aware of the misconduct and the sanctions handed down by the club,” he said.

The spokeswoman said the player would be able to join other clubs next season as the sanctions were handed down by the club.

Police and Adelaide Plains Football League have been contacted for comment.

I'm dropping Inglis for Carey.

I wonder why the next batsmen was not appealed for the same thing?

37 at the ground according to the commentary.

Need to strangle them early. Hopefully the wickets will come. Par since 2020 here has been 380!

That 380 Par figure I quoted since 2020 must be first innings as there has been no higher run chase than 284 there ever.

Inglis confirms with a stupid throw and a c grade referral that Carey should have been playing.

Dumb/stupid bowling from Starc. Mind numbing.

5/291 is their highest wc score

NOT ONE bloke on here ever gave up!!!!!!

South

Out O'Neil (Norwood) Sproule (Port Noarlunga) Smith (Delisted)

In Draper (Returns from Collingwood) McCarty (Essendon VFL)

Agree with that.

For mine, Abbott replaced by Starc and Stoinis replaced by Maxwell will be the two changes. Stoinis has not put it beyond doubt.

Carey would still be in my side ahead of Inglis.

Bluey Fest.

There is a strong argument to increase the GST as a curb to inflation, to spread more evenly the tax base and to increase the revenue for the Government.

This is out of the RBA's hands. They effectively only have the one tool.

Asking people to stop spending is close to pointless.

The SANFL is way bigger than just the mens comp. They run football at every level in the state and therefore will not live nor die over one comp.

The AFL pays for the travel and accommodation of all the sides in the VFL comp.

Anyway, mine were collective terms. Except for UK fan but he's clearly a space cadet

What is true for the group isn't true for the individual but if you fit into that group than that's on you.

I like to think the fine posters on SA Footy are a more refined bunch of higher esteem.

My work here seems done, see you all at the opening round of the 2026 Premier Division!

What like underqualified trumped up lazy know it all local government workers who think they could pull the skin off a custard?

Matthew Mott could be the best Aussie export to England.

England all out 325
Windies 6/326

Lots of people seemingly delighted in the news.... which unfortunately isn't a surprise

As if Ron Schadow has not been through enough. At least he got to see him win 2 group ones.

Does it really matter?

Not like you have to book travel and accommodation each week

Just trying to plan a trip interstate, but won't book it until I know when we play West, can't miss out seeing us win again.
Plus hope we have a bye when LIV is on.

Some things are not that hard.

When you try to sledge someone might pay to check to see who won the last game between them.

Dan O'Neil no certainty to play for Norwood.

Bloody hell, welcome back @scoob.

Still the best avatar on this site. The greatest TV show ever and obviously the best music as it was stolen by Nines WWOS.

I didn't see much yesterday but how much time lost due to batsmen taking a drinks break/changing gloves??

That's the first thing, I'd be outlawing. Change them at official breaks not between overs.

Yep.

The first one happened at the 8/9 over mark. Gloves, drinks, towel down, rest etc.

It is incumbent on the batter to be ready and not holding up the game.

That said, there are two blokes in the middle who should be getting the game moving instead of trying to be everyones friend. At one stage yesterday a bowler was ready and the batsman had taken his stance and the bowler came in and bowled but because he took forever to look up wanted a dead ball. Umpire did not give it.

So the forecast is 27 today, already 30 at 9:30am.

Hour by hour forecast, 23 at 9:30am, 30 at 1:30pm. :-s

Have they already gone on holidays at BoM, except for the work experience kid?

Well those science types have been saying for 30 years that the weather is getting way harder to forecast due to some sort of global change.

Port still relying on the SANFL to produce their players. Why don't they get them from the VFL?

Fred Phyllis wants out of the Glenelg Hall of Fame and all his photos and references at the club removed due to what he feels is a lack of respect shown in the clubs 100 year book.

Join your brother at South Freddy.

I don't recall but I think your suggestion of a hat draw would be correct.

India got to 8/208 before Rain stopped play.

Rabada has 5 and Rahul is 70 not out.

Pretty even I would have thought.

7/1 off 32 balls 1993 WACA

The stump cam footage of Carey taking that catch is fantastic.

I would rate that as a poor review.

I do not know how you do it but there is no one in your league.

Good one. Read this only recently.


A memory of English cricket commentator John Arlott, who always had a glass of red wine beside him as he worked …

This Arlott story concerns New Zealand bowler Bob Cunis.

Bob couldn’t be described as medium pace because he wasn’t quick enough. But he couldn’t be called a spinner because he didn’t spin it.

At the end of a long’s day play, after several bottles of red wine, Arlott advised his listeners:

“And, as for Cunis, his bowling, like his name, was neither one thing nor the other.”

Fantastic catch by Hodge.

Armchair expert wrote:Nice to see Hazlewood respond after I gave him a rocket last test

His last 27 overs he has 11/60.

If I ask you nicely, perhaps some money, would you drift over the SANFL threads and post that South are wooden spoon certainties, won't win a game and something like lose by record margins. Please.
