Mountie;113310 said:East Ballarat? Will the take the flag again?
Colonel;117899 said:They don't seem to be the same well oiled machine that they were over the past couple of seasons. Perhaps the custard heads have got complacent and are happy with the 2 flags after years of non-performance in the BCA?
Can anyone tell me what the BCA were thinking in suspending Mt.Clear player Dale Sidebottom for dissent, surely has been made a scapegoat? The BCA have a lot to answer for, in the way they are handing out fines and suspensions for trivial acts. Lot of clubs unhappy with this anarchy approach!!
Colonel;120384 said:Would be interestd to hear who people thought were the best players in the comp......blokes who could win you a game. I will start by naming Hopkinson from North, Bambury from Ball-Redan...........
Pyke is the most dangerous batter in the comp - he is the key to the target heads.Colonel;120384 said:Would be interestd to hear who people thought were the best players in the comp......blokes who could win you a game. I will start by naming Hopkinson from North, Bambury from Ball-Redan...........

straight bat;120431 said:Don Jaccobson has no common sense. He has cautioned players every round and made Sidebottom a scape goat. Don was never out when he played and used to carry on alot worse.
Bouncer;120436 said:Have been impressed with Jeffrey this year. Still showing he can cut it. thought he was turning into a bambury last year, batting for himself a bit, but have been impressed with the knocks he has put together this year.
I agree with Mounties comments regarding Cape also, would like to see him lift darley a bit more, he shouldnt have to, but like in any team if your champions take charge the rest will follow.
Bouncer;120438 said:yeah agreed, i would love to have seen the shoe on the other foot when Don was playing. He just constantly contradicts himself. there have been a number of instances this year that really expose him, he says one thing then does something to completely contradict it, it ruins his credability as an umpire and an official.
Mountie;120443 said:So who is the team to beat right now? any thoughts on a standout unit?

Colonel;121057 said:Wendouree still the team to beat, very organised unit and well balanced. Golden Point have the batting to win it with Kelton, but bowling is pretty thin still relying on the medium pies of Glenn King.
Naps are not the real deal, plenty of talented young blokes but if they think stacking the twos to win a couple of flags transfers to the A-grade then they are mistaken.
pidgeon fan;121063 said:Who do you play for in the Ballarat comp mate?
Colonel;121066 said:Nah not a player mate just have an interest and keep an eye on things from a far.
And yes Pidgeon is a champion, expect a big test match from him in Perth to respond to the critics!
pidgeon fan;121061 said:Excuse me but I know Don Jacobbson and he is a very good umpire. He knows his stuff. Sidebottom was probably a little undiscipline to do what he did.... It just proves that you don't know the rules all that well. Cricket umpires take things a little more seriously than what footy umpires do.
