Adelaide Hills Cricket (Hills, A&EH, TV)

[Tooting Bec]

Whats with the HCA posting stuff all lately? A Meyer Shield hangover perhaps...? I would've thought that just before finals it would be the perfect time of year for everyone to fire up and start getting stuck into each other! certainly are a different breed

After taking a keen local interest in all things cricket this season my predictions for March glory are as follows:

HCA - Meadows (will stand up come crunch time)
A&EH - Nairne (in a canter)
TVCA - Kersbrook (too good for Lobethal this time)

Wow fair crack for your fourth post DLO.

I think Onkas in the Hills association. Have too much depth. Bridgy and Uris to get bundled out in the first week of finals.

i think meadows will win easy... all Tarque has to do is come off the long run and he will either hurt someone or take 8 for

[doug deep]

yea will he ever come off the long run and take weickets tho? dont think the association has seen it? every1 is talking him up? id say his batting wuld fair better then his bowling results at this stage?

[Dutchy]

Didnt everyone say Meadows would win last year also?

[Tooting Bec]

All I can say boys is when you have a guy like stuey hanson batting nine you are going to be posting reasonable and competitve scores in finals. I think onkas have a bit more metal than meadow's but that's just my opinion.
Sorry for Bridgy and uri boys but I think it will be meadows and onkas again this year.

good luck to all who are playing the finals in the coming weeks.

Any truth to the rumours that the big bus S Russell might get the flick come finals due to his poor efforts this year with the bat.

Just give him more time to be naked

Looking forward to seeing K English pad up for the redcaps tomorrow in our chase against Onka's, has played some A grade for Sturt this season, might help us get above 100

Keegan is a very good cricketer pity his head is stuck so far up his arse its not funny, but honestly the kid is an absolute gun.

Is that Trent "bubbles' English's lad Dutchy?

[Dutchy]

Yep

[Dutchy]

Aldgate the only club not to take up the Home ground advantage option....weird

Lofty got 2 senior teams in the finals, D grade going for 16 wins in a row and the C's just scrapped in, thanks to some help from Leith Dawes. They take on a Giffordless Mylor outfit, should be a good game, esp if B Pistola fires up

A & EHCA Semi Finals

Nairne V Langhorne Creek

Strathalbyn V Hahndorf

Tips - Nairne and Strath to play off in the GF

Echunga unlucky not to make the finals after beating Strath in their last game to miss the finals by about 1/2 a point.

TVCA 'A' grade Semi Final Results

Lobethal 253 def Woodside 130

Kersbrook 111 and 3/155 (A.MacDonald 37*, K.McClelland 65) def Palmer 60

Cougar, can you please tell me it's gonna be different this year and you'll be holding the shield aloft this time?
I honestly hope it happens cos Loby 6 times in a row will shit me to tears - especially as on Saturday the Warriors dropped J Sziller twice (on about 10 & 12!!!!) and instead of 4 for 40ish it turned into 4 for 168 effectively GAME OVER for the indians...

GO CAVALIERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TVCA A2 finals

Lenswood Ranges 263 def Cambrai 171
Mt Torrens 76 and 2/72 def Eden Valley 61 and 135

Lenswood Ranges v Mt Torrens @ Lobethal in the final.


B Grade:

Mt Torrens beat Eden Valley.
Gumeracha apparently beat Palmer.

Here's my tips Saintal:
A's - Kersbrook to win by 1 wicket or less than 10 runs
A2's - Lenswood quite comfortably (maybe even first day finish if you bowl first)
B's - Gumeracha to make up for last years inglorious gf result

Hope you can win and then make the step up to A Grade next season! It's been a while since i've played on the glorious Lenswood Oval - love it!!!
