Isn't SA the only state to not have a first grade GF as a 3 day game?Insider_Trading wrote:Anyone see the score from the Melbourne Premier cricket final?
Carlton vs Casey South Melbourne.
3 day game at Windy Hill Essendon.
South Melbourne 212
Carlton 171
South Melbourne 209
Carlton 3 for 253 off 30.4 Overs to win the game outright
I sometimes wonder whether a 3 day final would work here in Adelaide.

Think I heard that there was 4 player reports from the Grand Final.
Dissent towards umpires decisions
And a send off also by a Glenelg player.
Frustration at its finest!

20 years ago Adelaide needed a 3rd day to bowl TTG out due the losing the final session on the Sunday to rain....am Bays wrote:Wasn’t it previously a three day final 20 years ago on AO?

Reckon it stopped a couple years before when Kensington batted for 2 days and Jason Morgan (?) made 244 not out. Made the front page of the Advertiser.

Conor McInerney would be the send off you would think, watch the Isaac Conway dismissal and he runs all the way over from slip to get in his face. Carder can be seen complaining to the umpire. That behaviour is not acceptable at all.
Agree would be Friday to Sunday like Victoria. Puts a lot of pressure though on players, supporters, volunteers etc to get day off work. Can’t see it happening anytime soon.

Buffalos would be silly to not gauge interest in those at rival Division 1 clubs in returning.
Given they finished 3rd in Division 2 and won the promotion final and had a good day in the final not sure they could sustain a whole season.

Wouldn't be surprised if Sturt at least made an enquiry with Higgins after the weekend? Don't know whether anything would eventuate given the lad has been at Glenelg since Ray Sutton Shield, however there is a connection there with his dad being a past Sturt premiership player. Unfortunately when you load up with imports that have less passion for the club than locals, and in a lot of cases, are only there for the money, this is the end result.

Yeah McInerney one not a good look, umpires didn't say anything to the Ocean Pony's or player after play on the day.
Not sure what was worse McInerney or Buckingham on T20 final.
Probs to Pt A completely outplayed Glenelg. Scored the required runs on Sunday pretty easily (6 overs).
Long time ago Adelaide played Glenelg on a Monday in the C Grade at Kings Reserve as lost some play due to rain on the Sunday (if memory is correct). Dizzy was playing in that game as well!

Benton especially was exceptional on day 1. agree with Eagles definitely a failed season with no flags to show especially finishing so far ahead in the 2 day comp.
