For a young bloke it was good to see he had the guts to face the opposition after being smashed and making a diamond duck
Adam is a top young fella and the number of guys out was disappointing but in the end it was a terrible display that I was ashamed to be a part of. Full stop. It certainly should not reflect on him and his efforts - I can readily say he is a delight to play for and with. It would be great if the boys can rally around him and post stronger efforts in future.

Adam is a great bloke and wasn't saying anything negative about him at all, in fact i was complimenting him for the way he handled the loss, hope you guys can get out of your slump and get your club up the table a bit, good luck against keswick this week.
Keswick beat Westminster by 9 wickets Westminster 100 on the dot after 33 overs with Kurt and Florence 3 for each Keswick 1/104 with rusty and Heath put on the run Heath just short of 50 and rusty 54
Twenty20 against sheidow Sheidow battered first making 9 for 94 Keswick in reply about 5 down for 95 rusty with bat 36 or so. Now keswick will play adelaide turf this Sunday at ? Waiting to hear. Winner will play on Adelaide over on the 6th of feb I think
m thomas 4, g dean 3, b kinnear 2, a stribly 1 in 1st innings g dean 3, binnear 2, s comer 2, a stribly 2 and comer did one of the best run outs you will see for the other wicket

Disappointments so far: South Road, Coromandel and Keswick
I think Coro and Keswick can change it around and make the finals still if they string one or two wins together.
Suprise package so far IMO are Ramblers, undefeated so far and played Cove and two of the 4 finallists from last year. ICC aswell, won 3 games and the one they lost they nearly won outright.

Playing PAOC @ Kingswood Oval i believe. Will be interesting to see how your boys go against that side. Heath and Rusty will have to make a few but they are more than capable of doing so. Hopefully for your sake you field and bowl well and give yourselves a shot at playing on AO.

Sorry vc Michael Thomas got another 50, Darren Thomas and Gary dean both made 30s and a few other guys got in the 20s fairl good team effort really, m Thomas is probably the best player in the league at the moment

A very competitive 6 sides have a chance of playing finals IMO. The current 4 + ICC & Keswick. Keswick can't afford more than one loss for rest of season or they are gone and may struggle as it is. They do have Heath & Rusty making runs, Lucky back and had a tough early draw in their favour. Cove with tough draw post Xmas. Looks like any of the top 6 could beat each other on their day.

You ruling out Coromandel then?
And Lucky back makes Keswick look a lot better indeed. They did have a lack of bowlers when we played them that helped us get over the line.
hopefully we can win our next two and be 5 and 1 heading into Christmas. We have Westminster on turf this week, who beat us last year, and then South Road at home. I expect South Road to be a hard game even though they are struggling. The bottom sides always seem to have a scalp or two during the year so hopefully it is not us. After our second game, and being 1-1, if we can be 5-1 it would be a great start for our boys.
What is your run home like AF? Glenelg/Cove/Ramblers look like the certainties at this stage IMO. The other sides fighting it out for our spot in the 4

Yeah can't see Coro making it, but they have beaten ICC and will beat others near top of the ladder. I'd say there are favourites to make the 4 but no certainties with Keswick and ICC out of the 4 at the moment. By Xmas Ramblers will have played all of top 4 so solid start.
