    Give me a spell! You blokes are the first to get on here and spruk how good your seasons going to be...i was just getting in first. And your right you have to play kids when all your good senior cricketers have pull up stumps and gone somewhere else...Modewarre will be alright, at least we are out of that league anyway and hopefully will never go back

    If Mano merges, is that any different to getting relegation, in regard to clearances? I know clubs are circling...

    Also what is confirmed for GCA changes.

    Buchanan to GW
    Davies & Vines to Footscray
    Have not heard much from Grovedale, East, Joeys.

    Mano won't merge. I don't think talks ever got beyond the polite enquiry stage. They shouldn't have any problems with fielding 4 sides in GCA2 as now all their veterans can play in the 1-day comp in GCA2 4ths - they didn't want to play 2-dayers last season.

    Dead set moddewarre would want to flog the cheque book or there turf wicket will be used in D3 the following year. We had an annoucement, we made it.

    If you are convinced we are a basket case, feel free to come down and have a look around, talk to a few blokes down there and actually find out fact over fiction, feel free to drop in.

    Joel Davies played for Geelong in the VCA before going to South Australia to try his luck and played some State 2nd eleven games, i think Vines played in the GCA coutry week side last year and did quite well.
    I dont know why Geelong wouldnt have tried to get Davies to go back especially with the loss of Buchanan, why would they travel to Footscray to play VCA when Geelong is on there doorstop? maybe they both work or haved moved to Melbourne or $:)

    Do any clubs accommodate fly in/fly out players?

    Edit: I'm looking at playing in Geelong this season and I am looking for a club willingly to accommodate the above. PM me for my credentials or if you are interested, cheers.

    Liam Buchanan has officially signed for Geelong West, which has to give them the strongest batting line up in div 1 by a fair margin. Matt Kennedy is also apparently coaching Waurn Ponds in quite a bizarre appointment

    Why would Lara sign a player who hasn't made a run in div 3?

    Don't need to be a good player to be a coach! Youd hope river would think that too cos looking at his form he hasnt been great n if he coaches to the level he plays they cant expect much this season. And age doesn't come into it u don't need to be old to be good.

    The kids got talent but yet to show how good he really is, if div 3 players are looking at playing div 1, you would think that they would have to dominate div 3 to make the grade.

    Can Guarantee that Nathan Kenyon is signed, sealed and captain/coach of Little River, with a new committee, new faces and new resolve.

    Will be a different looking Little River this year, and with our 3 16 year olds that scored a few 50's between them, are another year older - Lots of work to do, rome wasnt built in a day, but we are heading in the right direction.
