R3
Rosanna v Riverside
Rose bank v Diamo
Epping v Macleod
Bundoora v Heidelberg
Research v NEW

Few good games this week. Tipping Bundoora to make it hard for Heidelberg, Epping to be too strong for Macleod and Riverside to knock off Rosanna in a close one

Have reported, too many racial undertones in his posts and constantly making reference to Bundoora and their players.

Whatever your personal thoughts on this guy is, this ain’t the forum for it.

Time to get a life and play cricket and StFu.

Been impressed with Research so far looking like it could be a 2-1 start. NEW would be rapt they banked those points against Epping

Only so much the Wise boys can do for so long. Johnson is the real key to them, aswell as Lynch. If they can get those two regularly they’ll be hard to beat.

North eltham very very lucky to not be 0-3 after this round. No chance they chase 244 with their two best bats in the shed.

IMO they look most vulnerable for relegation.

Decided to do a rolling fixture and rounds 5-8 are now the exact same as last year again.

Yeah trying to maximize Friday night prime time TV game…..

Ok so start of season dvca blamed playhq for not having a proper fixture, may have been the case. But we now have a rolling fixture and surely they cannot blame playhq, as every other competition has a full fixture for the season….

Any actual reason for the rolling fixture? Don't say ground availabilitys

Probably pure laziness.
I'm not sure why clubs play against the same club a second time before xmas. Why can't each club play everyone else first prior to playing the remaining fixture - is it really that hard ?

I think it is ridiculous that it’s not an even fixture. The competition needs to go back to the format from a few years ago or change the Shields to 8 team competitions

It's a cut and paste job, I would expect these to be updated next week

It will be interesting to see if the teams that played each other in R1 & 2 play 'return one-dayers' after Christmas
Stay tuned on this one
