    Didn’t Henkel just get announced at Rosanna?

    I was under the impression that all their players were home grown apart from Matt Ross

    5 years on and Lower get back up to Money Shield. Well done. Have been the best side for 3 years in the grade

    What a tremendous day and a tremendous atmosphere. Tim Wise was something else this year. Macleod looked lost once he went out just after lunch but Rob Wise stepped up and hung around and nudged them. Tremendous season by both clubs.

    How to fix DVCA 2024/2025 onwards.

    I don’t think any team from that competition would make it out of Money Shield. Some would never make it out of Mash shield. And if there are no juniors then they cannot join.

    I believe play has to continue until the tea break or is that just for games throughout the season?

    Camrea have applied to join DVCA and are in the NMCA final.. if approved to join are they into Mash Shield and potentially the B grade Premiers Epping can join them in Mash Shield?

    What an incredible day this looked to have been! Full of momentum swings throughout the day and just absolute quality bowling from Rob Wise. Heidelberg's lesser known players standing up and Matt Ross showing quality 2 day batting to dig in. In hindsight I should have gone to this game over the...

    Looks like it is finally time to welcome Lower Plenty back up to Money Shield! Cannot be lost from here with all the quality batting in that line up.

    Remarkable effort in back to back weeks. He has single handedly put his team into a winning position. There have been a few times over the last couple of years Bundoora Utd have been bowled out for low scores. Definitely in the drivers seat but it is a grand final!

    How to fix DVCA 2024/2025 onwards.

    It will be interesting to see what happens next season if clubs come across from North Metro as some apparently have applied. a 4th Shield would need to be instated. Maybe it could be called the Flemming Shield. Personally need to see better equalization throughout Barclay & Money Shield...

    Congratulations to Lower Plenty and South Morang on a terrific game. One of the best finals I have been to in a while. 2 of the best batsman in their respective grade giving it their all. I think Lower Plenty will be too strong and consistent for Hurstbridge. But being on a small ground you...

    I should have worded my statement better - disaster ending to the season for Epping, not the overall season. Losing 3 out of their last 4 games in the season to drop from top spot to an away final and then to lose that game as well. It can happen in cricket - I look at that team and they are not...

    I have heard multiple times this season that Bundoora have paid the most money out to players.

    A disastrous end to the season for Epping. Really thought they could chase that target down. Maybe the time in the field on Saturday impacted their batting. Guessing they will be back with the same side next year just hoping for better results.

    Good luck to the older boys on the weekend! Will be a batsman's game this weekend.

    Is it possible for the games to start earlier? Might be something to consider with Sunday and Monday probably being heated off from 2pm onwards if the temperature isn't dropping overnight. At the same time I guess this is another advantage to finishing in the higher ladder position that a no...

    South Morang to win and Mernda to win. I love the cinema of a South Morang promotion but I ultimately think Mernda will win the grand final

    Why are you calling a game off? Much of the day will most likely be low 30s until it heats up after 4pm
