Nope, you've got 2 years on me pop. you're getting me confused with my older brother.


oh that's right, he was the quick bowler as opposed to your slow medium


Is that as opposed to a slow slow, or a slow fast? :shock:

The 90's must've been too kind to you LOL


The early 90's not really, got cancer, marriage broke down, the second half was a lot better, drank out the 97 AFL Premiership Cup and back again the following year :D

150 odd blokes running around PDCA that should be ashamed of themselves that they lost their wicket to my right arm pies off three steps , though ;)

Age is no barrier if you can be upfront, honest and listen to all age groups. I captained a B Grade footy side at 21 when I was working arvo's and couldn't make most trainings, none of the older blokes had any qualms with it, they let me know on a Saturday night after a few frothies if I acted like a dickhead.


I won a div 5 PDCA cricket premiership as a captain at 17, we had a fair side mind you in what was our b grade back then

Being a cricket captain is not an easy role regardless of the side you have - I've often found being a captain/coach for cricket far more difficult than football at times.. although it's a completely different sport and different egos you have to deal with

Cricket coaching / captain doesnt even compare to being an a grade football coach the amount of hours a club footy coach does is amazing!

Try coaching a club with 5x senior teams and the talent varies from highly exceptional to down right spastic :lol:

Captained my cricket side last year, and coaching a football side this year.. Very different stresses, but the hours of footy and strategy etc that goes into it, I found it easier to manage the cricket captaining by a street.. Just me though

If you're just a stand alone captain for cricket it's much easier - especially if you have a good coach that puts in the work behind the scenes. I was more referring to captain/coaches.

You're dead right about the strategy side of footy etc. compared to cricket - I spend most my week reviewing games, researching oppositions sides and planning match ups for the coming week with footy, but cricket its basically the same concept each week with some slight tinkering and I rarely bother with the opposition.

Haha! Noooope! Club recruited well, started all guns blazing winning 13 of the opening 14 games, then things went pair shaped badly, side lost 3 of the next 4 minor round games and was bundled out in straight sets of the finals losing by 89 and 57 points respectively.

Schell was asked to leave at seasons end after "indiscretions", players left the club and the club really had a difficult time over the coming two years.

A fine example of what happens when a coach forgets his boundaries (or abuses his position).

Having been a playing coach at the age of 24, challenging to start with and coached on wards thereafter. Looking back, probably wished that i had just enjoyed my playing career longer before coaching.
