Castlemaine and District Cricket Association

Re: Castlemaine and District Cricket Association

i dont think the redhats will make the finals. campbells creek and newstead are coming, and the redhats cant rely on arsy slapping to get the points which they obviously did this week.

You were obviously at the game??? Whats your reasons behind them not being able to make the finals? Too make almost 200 is hardly a score that would is arsy??? They bowled an excellent lineup out for 107 that would suggest that they won the game fair and square. They thrashed the Goats.

Great win without some injured players so Redhats will get better.

Newstead would be far too many points back wouldnt they???

Creek look like they are gaining momentum so I would agree they will be top 4.
 
Re: Castlemaine and District Cricket Association

u dont no newstead if u think they are 2 far back. they will be in and go close if not win it again with all the players getting back into the team
 
Re: Castlemaine and District Cricket Association

You are kidding yourself if you think newstead wont be a massive part of the finals action!
they have now got their full team back and will be hard to beat.
but the finals race will be a lot more fearcly contested this year.
it will be interesting.
:D

Will be very interesting to see how Castlemaine go after Christmas... They play Campbells Creek away, The Redhats who have the wood on them, Then Barkers away, Newstead at home and Guildford away. They could possibly lose all 5 of those games. I would say at least 3. So they are not the team people think they are. They have had a very easy run.

Players like Lachy Ford, Jamie Allan and Ben Rossin are yet to fire. I would say they will be three of the stars after Christmas.

I dont think castlemaine will chock in the finals. If you look how they did last year in making the grand final without the bowling of Clint Aldridge you would have to say they are a better side than they were last year. i think they will lose two games after christmas creek because its the first one back and to North because Jamie Allan and Jarrod Milsom if hes back will win it by themselves again
 
Re: Castlemaine and District Cricket Association

i don't think that milsom is all that much is he? i see he only took 4 wickets in the 3 or 4 games he played b4 he hurt himself. jamie allen is too old and frail by now isn't he? he's not far from pension age, and it is showing in his scores this year.

I'm just saying what happened last year when we played them. I played in the game and milsom was a very good bowler and Allen got runs in the game as well

The league officials continue to baffle... 3 games washed out again because covers are not allowed to be used...

One game gets on because its a hard wicket and a result happens meaning a team jumps to third and another can pretty much kiss their finals chance goodbye.

The league should have a rule that unless 2 out of 4 games in A grade play then all A grade should not play and the same applies to A res. B grade will play most times due to being played on hard wickets.

Seems very unfair to the rest of the league when some teams play... Thoughts???

Since when arent you allowed to use covers?? We use them all the time. I dont agree its your teams falut if u dont use covers. And on hard wicket if u want to play you can no matter how wet it has been. But you still get hte 6 ponits for the draw so thats better than nothing.
 
Re: Castlemaine and District Cricket Association

its great to be back !!!

3 washed out A grade games - the whole round should be washed out

Our powers to be wont make the hard calls and that is why our competition remains in the dark ages, rules need to be clarified around covers and while we have hard wicket and turf teams we will continue to run into controversy

I hear a former a grade premiership captain is on the move in the not to distant future.........

is it true one or even two clubs are leaving the cdca ???

Re: Castlemaine and District Cricket Association

Hey guys.

I play for Malmsbury. A great bunch of blokes, but we have not done anything on the pitch this year. Considering we won the A Reserve comp last year its a bit dissapointing.

I have only been able to play two games through work. In my first game I made 46* and had around 0/40 off 8 overs and in the second game I made a big fat 0.

Gee the rain has been annoying this past month.

How come malmsbury is allowed to have an A grade and a B grade when a few years ago we couldnt do it?

No idea mate.

Some interesting results on the weekend. Muckleford winning is the big upset. Newstead are going to have to play some very good cricket after Christmas to defend their title.

Malmsbury almost pulled off a brilliant win also against Campbells Creek.

Castlemaine continue on their merry way.
