[Sam_goUUUdogs]

Come on Playford

[custardarm]

Seems to me people will be chasing you left right and centre... I mean who doesn't want a true champion..

Plus the extra bar takings

lol yeah coke sales thru the roof

[custardarm]

at two wells??

yEAH AT tw

nah mate.. the last year was all to hard with numbers early.. the two games we played with 9 people pretty much made my mind up then and there.. want to enjoy it not get frustrated with it..

cant play games like that

[Grahaml]

The side I played in had less than 11 on the field for all bar 1 maybe 2 games. And several we had players missing for an entire days play. One game we had 5 blokes play one week and not the second. 2 had decent reasons, the other 3 didn't. Ironically we knocked over the last 5 wickets quickly and made 2/300 in our second dig!

[Wizard of Oz]

Salisbury West 9/281 apparently...

[smac]

A very good total that one. Scotty Mc could miss a premiership after 4 runners up in a row?

[Wizard of Oz]

The tie is always forgotten isn't it ? Regardless of opinions, its still counted as a premiership.

Anyway, yes...incredible total for a grand final. Still a lot of work to be done though but it appears the monkey will be removed...

[Iwasthere84]

Gd 4 BL 117 CU 28 all out 20 wickets before 5.15pm Game called off

[Grahaml]

Yes, great innings today. Sewell 72, Mcintyre 50 and Costanzo 50. Excellent day's play. Now to finish off tomorrow.

[cokadonkeytoo]

I think there was more excitement from a certain two wells player who could hardly walk due to being completely smashed, spent a little bit of time on the ground aswell

[norm11]

Congrats Sals West.

[norm11]

thats a big call, one pretty average year as captain and there gunna sack him

I'd say Robbo is the best man for the job... only my opinion.

Corey is the best man for the job. As a player and Chairman i back him in

[Browny25]

Congrats to westies on their premiership. Well deserved, and best team all year.

[Grahaml]

Well, despite the knockers, despite nobody apparently thinking we could win either the semi or grand final not only did we win but won both convincingly. And to take out grade 3 with our B grade emphatically establishes Salisbury West as the premier club in Para Districts. And the frightening fact is our A grade are only going to get better with the number of kids in that grade 3 premiership side going to put pressure on the A grade which is also a very young side. It takes a good team to get there and win once. It takes a great club to butter up year after year and play off in 5 grand finals in a row. And it takes a lot of character to get over the line when you get so close so many times.

that wont get you more overs norm

its not adelaide oval so a full time curator is not needed but we have someone inplace to look after the turf deck during the week.

James 07 what i was trying to say is that if Sandy were to go to Turf it takes more than someone to turn up and sit on a roller for an hour a day...
Good luck to them if they do, there is just alot of work involved in going to play turf... Would have liked to keep playing against them in the para districts though... enjoyed playing against them...

It would shag their junior program, the oval seems to be very dewey in the mornings even when the weather is quite good in the metro area. I'm not a big fan of turf wickets in the PDCA for juniors, Penfield have one and quite often their games are called off when other ones go ahead. The PDCA wont allow turf clubs to host finals either.

It's Sandy's call at the end of the day, they have been a big part of the PDCA history and I have developed a fair bit of admiration for their club and many of their players over the years, it would be sad to see them go, always loved playing out there.

Hey James, do you remember my accidental catch in the 20/20 game out there.

Yes i do remember the catch i was taking off for the first run thinking about a second and end up running straight off the ground instead.

LM i think you will find if Sandy gets turf they will play in the Barossa comp and the younger kids will still play hard wicket as we are unable to have all junior sides play at home with the 6 teams they have.
So im not sure about shagging the junior program, i believe any junior program is largely based upon doing the work to get the kids out to your club then keeping them there by teaching them the game of cricket, so im not sure a turf deck will detract away from that.
