now wells are gone where you gonna go catchit?
maybe join the darkside of the creek
Could you imagine that, rattas v stama, training sessions would be great to watch seeing the both try to rip each others heads off, and the sledging, oh the sledging.........FANTASTIC
he would need a wheel chair for his back by the time i finished batting
Maybe fielding practice while you got the pads on, hey?

Cheers...we need to win this week to make it. Lose and we're out, simple.
I'll answer that for you -
GF 1 - Played a quality Central Districts side gunning for 3 in a row. Our first GF with a young group and were outplayed. Didn't make enough runs and was always going to be hard to defend 120odd. Had them 8/90 when Jimmy North dropped Craig Laird...that hurt. Wouldn't call it a choke after avoiding relegation the season before.
GF 2 - The tie. Rosies finished top after the minor round. They had us on toast and we took 5/15 to scramble a tie. A lot dont agree with it, but the records show we won a Grade 1 flag.
GF 3 - The one that really hurt. By far and away the best team all year and we'd been building to this for 3 seasons. 120 minutes of poor cricket cost us big time. Credit to Billy who had an outstanding match and pretty much single handedly beat us. Cricket is a funny game and this one showed it. Choke....yep.
GF 4 - Lost Adam Ozolins, Rocco Illuminato, Shane Nobes, Andrew Parkhouse and Jimmy North from the season before. Take the equivalent players of any other club....Any club and they are not playing finals period. A great effort to be there but were beaten by a far better side in Two Wells. No way would I call this one a choke.
All in all, I think the choker tag is a bit of a myth. As pointed out by Grahaml....only one other club has won more grade 1 flags. I have played in 4 so I think the club is still going alright....
