Creeks gave the Top 4 a shake last year
Strath too good. PERFECT conditions at Strath. Good pitch, lightning fast outfield. Wouldn't it be great for every oval to have access to a Caravan Park Gold Mine enabling NO EXPENSE to be spared on it to have it in top notch nick. Good luck to them.
Creeks 9/177 (45 overs) Strath 4/181 (38.3 overs) were 4/84 b4 the Abbott brothers took charge with the bat.
Nairne 5/329 Sloon Tait 160 (13 sixes) smashed Wistow 124
predicting the Top 4 to likely stay the same as last year.
Nairne
Strath
Woodside
Creeks
Some interesting results from the first games of the season under the new structure. Interestingly it appears some of the more vocal opponents of the change "lowered" themselves to play anyway...... Be interested to hear how the "players" enjoyed the first hit out.
Yes I saw that, wonder if they will lower themselves further to play at the 'worst facilities in Australia' later in the season?
