Scratch, we have to guard against the inevitable sneaky gust of wind emenating from down the Bass Coast caused by those massive wind turbines bringing unexpected rain and catching clubs by surprise. Ouch, exhale one massive sigh, wipe the brow and shaketh the head in an exasperated fashion.

Scratch, wander over to the corner of your room, lie down, then go to sleep and leave us all alone.

Hey Guys', Do I detect a mood in the vtca competition that their is a desire to reduce the "player points cap" even further throughout the grades'. From the present 42 to what?

Ha Ha, you may well be right. As I remember he was a very passionate YCCC president and could fire up at times. I remember the time back in 1987, when a few verbal exchanges' between players and spectators during a match V Buckinhham IOOF in the FCA comp so tickled John Meddings, that he ran on...

Have'nt heard of or seen him for years.What is his status now? Are you suggesting he"s been planted?

Are you living under Whitten Bridge now. I saw a well worn track leading to that locality littered with McDonald wrappings the other day?

And how. Don't tell me John Meddings is back?:eek:

Amazing. I've been saying the same thing for years. It's an absolute disgrace.

Back in your box boys. Edict already advised by vtca. Cheers.

Strange that. Most Australians don't know where WA is. Stop the boats now I say.

I should have added, perhaps DSTREK15 should contact those english BBC cricket commentators and enlighten them as to the lads true beginnings.

Yep, I must admit I was angry when first reports neglected to mention McKinnon. No doubt Richmond has an excellent culture. Young Ashton Agar is not a mountaineer, archer,soccer player, bridge champion, mongolian horseman, mule skinner or even a crocodile hunter. He's a cricketer cause McKinnon...

Yeah, and two more in the locker. Think I'll join McKinnon. Wonder If Ashton Agar will retire now with an avaerage matching the Don. Congrats to McKinnon. Cricket Victoria sit up and take notice. Which clubs develop babies into stars. Hope somebody at McKinnon can remind journalists that it was...

So is it time to install the Ashton Agar brass statue in front of the McKinnon club rooms?

That may be the case now , certainly wasn't back in 1998. I attended a sports summit convened by Moonee Valley Council the other day and the guest speaker was Mark McAllion the CEO of Vic Sport. You could have knocked me over when he stated " Utilise your grounds more or lose it." There is a...

Back in 1998 the VCA in colusion with the MAV ( municipal association of victoria) as part of their plan surreptitiously tried to eliminate the lower grade turf clubs in order to free up grounds for other sports and soccer. The VCA wanted to create zones and thus have more control. The VCA was...

In view of your mostly intelligent contributions to this forum and your stated regard for Mick Hawking, I withdraw my reference to him as a coke head. Perhaps the paper should have asked him for an explanation of what he meant by using the term, FRAGMENTED!!!

Vote themselves out of existence? Wow, would you, when it was discovered the Victorian Cricket Association in colusion with councils across Melbourne had a surreptitious plan to eliminate many lower grade turf clubs by turning there wickets into hard wicket grounds or giving them over to soccer...

Interesting. I was a bit perplexed with DDCA President Michael Hawking alleged comment in the Leader where he said "I know sub district and the VTCA are very fragmented and I know sub-district doesn't do much for the development of cricket victoria." What a crass coke head. The fact the VTCA is...

Well battler, all I can say is "It must be a battle"
