Grade 2
57.40 - Enfield
53.20 - Eyre Royals
47.90 - Parafield Gardens
47.0 - ATCO
---------------------
25.10 - Salisbury West
24.00 - North Pines

Parafield Gardens are really firming as the most dangerous side - knocked off the top of the table Eyre Royals - that's 5 in a row, and have to go back to November for their last loss. North Pines will probably rue a missed opportunity Saturday, rolling ATCO for 127 but then being all out for 79 themselves, was probably a good chance for a win - I see they made somewhat of amends yesterday though winning the T20.

Enfield probably lucky to win in their match - Cree dropped a couple times early, made 100 off around 50 balls and the team was 150 off 17 overs. Westies clawed back really well and if they'd held Cree early, may have been chasing a very modest total. In reply, they recovered well, and for the most part it looked like the rain might have the final say, but to the credit of the umpires (and Westies) they stuck at it, and the game found a conclusion.

Have to say the top 4 is set in stone - but with only 10pts between 1st and 4th, it's anyones guess who finishes where. ATCO prefer the 2 day stuff, they'll be pushing hard for max points Rd 15 against SW - they could come home with a wet sail... but I can't help but think it's Parafield who are primed to snatch top spot by time finals roll around... not bad considering they wanted to drop down out of Grade 2 before the season.

No idea who wins the medal, really hasn't been one consistent standout player all season. Maybe Craig D'Antonio.

You guys and ATCO for mine in the two dayers, Gardens would win the one day comp if there was one IMO. Watching them take the field you wouldn’t pick them as being dangerous but they have a fair arsenal of variation with the ball, if they nab a home final they will certainly use the tiny boundary to their advantage.

They bat with flair and little care, they bat quite deep too, sitting near them is humorous, they don’t put pressure on themselves which probably makes them bat with a relaxed attitude. They have 3 very handy batters.

A club dictating who they will and won’t play in GRADE ONE cricket… laughable and pathetic.

Obviously if a report was warranted the umpire and league would have made action and they didn’t so all of this chat is just nonsensical BS from a team scared of copping another flogging.

Sounds very similar to a situation last season (besides the forfeit) when Eastern park bowled Dublin out for 60 before 2pm and their whole team literally cried to Benny Mcmullen trying to sort a deal out to call the game off because they didn’t like getting teased from a couple of the EP boys who weren’t playing that day.. Never seen so many fully grown men cry about being sledged in my life! Was actually embarrassing.. Especially because they all thought they were the bees knees, and tried to trade words early in the piece but just weren’t up to scratch.. least the EP boys right now know they suck but still wouldn’t see any of them literally cry about being sledged hahaha

Oh right, are we just gonna ignore Eyre who have systematically dismantled most sides this season, have added Aaron Lord to the top of the order to compliment Nathaniel Brookes and Brenton Jenner, before throwing Jared Jenner, Darcy Rundle and Beau Reid to the batting stocks.

Wilson, Quick, Mansueto, Rundle with the ball is a far group.

Royals for the flag. LM trying to fly 'em under the radar.

What is PDCA policy on clearance’s?
We have had players going to another club and no clearance submitted by the club.

Little harder to remember this year since there is no website available with the by-laws.. and i know there was some issues with PlayHQ.. but from memory:

If they have played this season, then clearance required before Dec, 31
If they haven't played in a certain amount of time (1 or 2yrs?) then no clearance required.
If they haven't played at all this season, then clearance can be approved anytime up until it's too late to qualify for finals e.g. 4 rounds to go.

Issue early in the year was that players were able to freely register into PlayHQ and no one really had much visibility over it (probs still dont).. if they registered in PlayHQ though they can be cleared / permitted across and the primary club can action - but if you don't have permits set up for notification OR it's set up for automatic approval (which was a default setting before xmas when updates occured), then it would go through either automatically or timed out.

*edit* - i'm pretty sure people can still openly register for various clubs without anything triggering or notifiying.

Does the PDCA still use the now old MyCricket Admin for clearances?
Because the move from MyCricket to Play HQ has created a grey area with clearances, in the ASCA a player can register for a 'new' club on Play HQ without having to get a clearance because clearances are still done using the MyCricket admin and it seems to slip through unnoticed by the associations.

We have had an example of this at our club with a player leaving and registering with another club on Play HQ without their new club putting a clearance in for that player on MyCricket admin. Our president has attempted to contact the PDCA about this issue and hasn't had decent correspondence about it, the PDCA executive doesn't seem to care about it. The player has now played 12 matches this season and their still hasn't been a clearance for the player.

Nah they don't. I put clearances in through MyCricket at the start of the season - and approved a couple that had come to me from Fitzroy - but it seemed they got lost at the next level (guessing coz PDCA don't use it?).

PlayHQ is dogshit, and this is another example of it.. can only hope in the next year or the crinkles will be ironed out. As I said, don't think there is anything stopping a player registering at multiple clubs with the clubs helpless to step in.

My biggest challenge I've found (MyCricket and PlayHQ) is getting correct names for players and finding out if they have a history.

Just quietly, Central United's victory on the weekend has dropped Para Vista out of the 4, and loosened the grip and put in danger their LO1 dominance since joining PDCA.

Vista have won the last 4x LO1 flags on the trot, winning 68 of 84 games and losing only the 9 matches. A whopping 89% win/drawn ratio!

Although, it's still a tight finish - Smithfield have the toughest run home, they get Two Wells and ATCO but also NEK, Hazara and then Units and Vista - you'd think they would need to win 4/6 to hold onto 4th spot.

Para Vista and Units have Pirates, Two Wells, ATCO, NEK, Smithfield and Hazara to close out the year.

Units should finish 2nd or 3rd and probably only need to win 2 matches to secure that..

Pirates are only 2pts behind Para Vista but would need to claim the PV scalp to be a chance and probably one of Units, Hazara or NEK.

T20 Fixture is out.. looks like Andrews Farm opted to forfeit to Dublin, which has granted Craigmore a second life - and arguably the easiest draw.

Sunday, 12 Feb
Eastern Park vs Craigmore
North Pines vs Dublin
Salisbury West vs Eyre Royals

Fair enough, if PDCA aren't using MyCricket to still do clearances like the ASCA is then the example I mentioned will continue to happen (or may have happened already). I'm pretty sure SACA premier cricket are still doing their clearances through MyCricket? Because when I put clearances in for players needing a clearance from Port Adelaide for example they've been processed and approved in quick succession and I still get the email notifications from MyCricket.

I guess with associations not using the same website/database to do clearances, permits and transfers in this transitional phase it's more difficult to keep track and on top of player movements.

Name and shame the player and the PDCA club. If there is a finals position up for grabs surely the 5th or 6th team will protest and force the issue if there has been a breach of the clearance policy. If there hasn't been a breach at least it brought the issue to the forefront.

Expected a bite, pretty dissapointed tbh.

Whats peoples thoughts on this. Wicky has tried a stumping and appealed and been given not out. Batter within a second or two then walks out his crease and the keeper takes the stumps. Massive appeal. Not out. Tempers fire up. Auto sits down and says youre all tards while everyone carries on like pork chops. Had no real effect on the game. Out or not?

Why did the batter walk out of his crease?

To get to the other side.

Without rehashing this, EP were given a simple ultimatum play grade 1 or no team at all.
They chose as a club to play grade 1 and have stuck it out for the most part.
No club wanted to fill the spot and no club wanted a bye. What else could’ve been done..

They did expect some key players to return after Xmas and hasnt quite happened for them.

LO1 an extremely competitive competition this year, might be the future for clubs that only have 1 maybe 2 teams and dont want to be part of the full form game. Prob best if that is left for the clubs that are serious about their cricket and have a decent program in place tbh.

And i wont say too much about Para Vista as I do genuinely like them as opponents who play fairly, but they certainly seem a bit shell shocked with actual competition.

It all certainly needs a good review post season and I hope all clubs engage and help form the sort the competition you want to be part of. Its an imperfect beast but at end of day it supports about 1000 cricketers to get a game of cricket every week.

Reach back to get his bat behind the crease, then when given not out lifted his bat to walk somewhere/ go for a wonder.
