Pull your head in Webby , otherwise i will get you banned like Mighty Mouse or whatever his name is ....This forum is for Blokes that play on Sythentic not for tools that play on turf wickets prepared by curators that spend 5 minutes to prepare with a lawnmower....No wonder you have more byes to your name than runs
Not sure what tipping has got to do with it, but given where you are on the ladder surprised that you brought it up. Just say you were wrong. If the club with no history, Greensborough get up this year I will say well done to them and that I was wrong.

SO here are the current situations of games :
Bundoora All out 162 / Rosanna 0/2
Macleod All out 195 / Epping 0/4
Riverside All out 290 / NEW 0/0
Research All out 92 / Diamond Creek 1/103
Mernda 9/253 / Lower Eltham 0/0
Plent All out 242 / Old Paradians 0/1
On relegation , the new favourite to go down would currently be North Eltham given that I expect Plenty to defend that score, and given that Lower Eltham haven't made a score over 197 at home this year, surely Mernda are favourites in that game.
Interesting weekend ahead lads....

Macleod v Rosanna would be a better spectacle
I'm pretty certain it cant be Rosanna Vs Macleod.
For Rosanna to get 2nd, both Macleod and Lower Eltham need to lose, in which case LE finish 3rd, ahead of Macleod on %.
it could still be Macleod vs Rosanna however (with wins to Mac,Rosanna and Mernda).....it will be a great last week, with positions 2,3,4 and 10,11,12 still far from decided
Would love to watch the Lower Eltham run chase, its all to play for in that match, a home final and relegation at stake

I think NEW will go down. 290 is a huge chase. Shame because it means NEW 2s get relegated too, and they've acquitted themselves very well in Money.
Plenty and Mernda both have about 240 to defend. It will be interesting to see if a couple of club champions can keep them up with the ball. Great effort by Connelly too. Huge game, stood up.
Unfortunately I think NEW will go down. Would be a shame as they are a well run club with good juniors. Their very young 2nds team have also exceeded expectations and would be a shame to see them go down as well after a positive first season in MS.
No disrespect, but Id want Plenty to go down. Struggled all year and calling upon a couple of yesterday's heros to help them stay up. A lot of respect for them as a club and what they've been able to achieve but from an outsiders perspective it's time for them to rebuild. There 2nds have been mediocre, whilst they have struggled to put a 3rds team on the park.
Money Shield may be the perfect place for their 1st XI to be in as the club goes through a rebuilding process.

Lower Eltham have to some chance chasing 250 against Mernda. If your a genuine premier contender you chase 250 6 or 7 down. Well done to the sides facing relegation for keeping the season alive.

Connelly batted extremely well! Chance less innings and he has changed his game slightly, had a lot more patience. We didn't bowl overly bad, they just batted well.

And it's Mernda to go down.....wow, were they the worst side all year??? I guess it doesn't matter....
Best slip fielder: Glen Turner easily for me. Best all round fielder: Jet Still.

Well, they were only the worst side over the season on ladder position, wins, points, percentage and bowling average.
Judging by the size of the boys they were the best at eating. It was an interesting end to relegation this season for barclay shield.Well, they were only the worst side over the season on ladder position, wins, points, percentage and bowling average.
