Re: City of Moorabbin Cricket Association 09/10

I reckon if we had a dollar for each catch we dropped at HWCC, we'd be able to match West Bentleigh's payroll. Fair to say we'd probably win a lot more games too.
 
Re: City of Moorabbin Cricket Association 09/10

Loving Clocker's work on here.

Fair to say he has overtaken Old Merl in the insight lane.

20/1 Mick some good odds there for you lads especially given you believe you can make the 4.

What did you guys need to improve on and how and what have you done.

Been sincere here
 
Re: City of Moorabbin Cricket Association 09/10

Uncle Mick,

A vino sipping poster, has got a ring to it, and something I could get use to.

My impeccable sources say Clocker is a lot closer to the Congress and may even sit at or has sat at the oval table therefore quite easy to source information!
Nevertheless I am in awe of the statistical information and research the great man provides.

The Go Dees came back to earth with a thud and it was good to see young Blairy's mob didn't emulate the saints this week and earnt a shot at redemption against traditional rivals Chelt.Sadly no twin calicos for older Blairy and no closer to the Archie / Merlot double identity puzzle!

Have partaken in the produce from the southside canteen in their glory days and must say it was a lot better than the infamous packet of twistees served up by a club at one stage.Maybe the suspended and forgotten Ham & Cheese could shed some light on a required standard of arvo tea as his mob have won the prestigious BBQ mob award at one stage.Not sure of the current title holders.

Did pop into the new but not much better web site with no movement at the station since Merl last reported.No attempt to fix the Michael J Fox into the future gremlins and no new news to report.I see the BBQ mob are having their AGM tomorrow night and it will be interesting to see if the 6 burner BBQ model has a run at the top job which he briefly held in the past.Has Barrack used the Presidential veto to return him to the local fold?

Have heard a Hawthorn supporting BBQ is moving on to another mob after being disgruntled with selection policies.No word on a recruitment drive to fill the void of non returning BBQ's!



until next time ............................. the vino sipping poster................. Merlot
 
Re: City of Moorabbin Cricket Association 09/10

Good win by the Bluebaggers, that one. Fev turned up for half an hour to put the result beyond doubt.

Even without the input from the canteen the Southside lads put on a decent spread for lunch. Have to agree with Clocker too. On field they've been on the slide for a while now.

We can't expect the website to be updated if there's no news to tell, Old Merl. Out of curiosity, what would be on the agenda at the umpires AGM?
 
Re: City of Moorabbin Cricket Association 09/10

Uncle Mick,

I would imagine that you have been to the odd AGM and did you attend the BBQ AGM in your brief time with them?

Elections are always on the Agenda and whether Robbo has counted heads to ensure his reelection.

Barrack has already re appointed the Umpires Advier on his west bentleigh like salary so there will be no need to do that.The Adviser wouldn't be able to report on the accreditation process because my spies said he hasn't done any of it in the two years he has been in the job!

UM you are starting to sound like you know who, supporting incompetence.If as reported they read the magnificent readings of the Big Cricket forum then they surely could have fixed the Michael J Fox problem and could have at least changed the website address under the contacts page.

A bit of a profile on the new executive members wouldn't have gone astray either.There is probably more but I will get accessed of whingeing so I will just monitor their performance in the michael j fox future.

I'm assuming you mean accused? Hardly see it as whingeing my good friend. I think you make valid points - though I'm still vexed by this Back to the Future reference? Hopefully it's taken on board and actioned.

As for the BBQ mob. I went to a couple of meetings, but not the AGM. Being a current committee member, I have obviously been to an AGM. I was more curious as to the specifics of the BBQ mob without having to hurt the brain by comparitively thinking it through.
 
Re: City of Moorabbin Cricket Association 09/10

So making the CMCA team of the year repeatedly make you over rated is that right.
Ivan is a quality player he is a match winner, granted he has not been the most consistent player in his career i am sure he would agree but he has been in the top 10 influential players in the CMCA for some time now.

Walk up start in any side in the CMCA.
 
Re: City of Moorabbin Cricket Association 09/10

Uncle Mick

Spelling was never Merlot's forte,much better with figures.

Yes I did mean accussed.

Impeccable sources advise that the BBQ will be no more they are changing back to the sky blue and hence forth will be known as the sky blues.

Barrack did deliver a Presidential address at the AGM and I believe there was a bit of heat in the kitchen when Barrack was asked by a returning brown sandal wearing, sky blue to elaborate on the heat policy.

The former sandal wearer was actually in shoes and he and his bike could be a regular sight this year in the either side of Bluff rd Cup formerly known as Woolnough.Let's hope he has been to the Rudi Kertzen school of giving LBW's as his previous track record wasn't good.

The Umpires Adviser made a brief appearance before shooting off to attend to football duties.

Robbo was returned unopposed and the father of the two not one B bros who are both alledgedly leaving the oasis was elected secretary.Jug can you confirm or deny this latest rumour to hit the streets as it would mean the machine are only on the 6 cylinders not 8!!!

that's enough for you to absorb tonight as things start to warm up as we approach that one day in October

Re: City of Moorabbin Cricket Association 09/10

Merlot are you obsessed with the BBQ mob and Barrack in what you call them, everytime your on here that is all it is. I have grown to enjoy your work but even now i am thinking time to add some old spice to the cake mixture and bakes us something different.
As your cakes are beginning to get stale.:D
 
Re: City of Moorabbin Cricket Association 09/10

Ivan is one of the quality cricketers in the competition. It's always the way that one of the better players in the competition puts himself out there with performances on the field, only to be slandered by someone hiding behind an online pseudonym... maybe a bitter Omega player perhaps?

If you play against Ivan on a Saturday and are prepared to have a beer with him after a game, you wouldn't find many better blokes to have a post-game chat with.
 
Re: City of Moorabbin Cricket Association 09/10

Much has been said and commented about the veritable strengths of clubs, and the statistics below make some interesting reading.
By far Omega & East Sandringham lead the way in total Grand Final wins in all grades with 25 flags each, closely followed by Bentleigh Uniting with 24 flags and Bentleigh ANA with 16 flags. Omega’s efforts are even more impressive when you consider they were formed in 1972.

Honourable mention to the Government Aircraft Factory which won the H Grade Flag 1979-1980, then followed up the next year with the flag in G grade in 1980-1981, and made it a three in a row with a flag in 1981-1982 in F Grade.
 
Re: City of Moorabbin Cricket Association 09/10

Wow Clocker moving strides ahead of the rest of the field fantastic insight.

Sugar well said i agree 100%, to many players are judged on there on field exploits generally because most of the time the person who is having a dig at them can't leave the cricket stuff on field & sit down and have a Beer with everyone at the end of the day.

In this case everyone knows what sort of lad Moose is so it would be pretty easy to sum up that Cricketball is someone who has been disgruntled by Moose on field, and has not wanted to have a Beer after the game with him and the Union lads there for not seeing the real side of IVAN.

Some of the nicest and best Cricketers in the comp are pricks on field.

Kudos for going to the big Moose's defence, Sugar, but it's best to ignore these moronic posters unless they have something worthwhile to contribute. You're only feeding the ego of the easily amused when you respond to their cheap snipes.

Merl, please tell me dear old Dave is returning. There's nothing like hearing his excuses for why an lbw decision can't be given. If nothing, he is consistent. You'd have to be very stiff to get the finger from him when wrapped on the pads.
 
Re: City of Moorabbin Cricket Association 09/10

Clocker - fantastic research. Good to know that ANA, despite lack of Longy success, is in the big 4 when it comes to winning flags.

As for defending Ivan, Mick I accept that it gives these blokes leverage when we feel the need to respond to them, but the alternative in this case is uncomfortable silence... it ends here.

Merl... looking forward to losing to the Saints on Sunday. Under 5 goals will put further doubt in the minds of St Kilda, while we pick up both Scully & Trengove. I'll see you in the Long Room with my friend, the much travelled and long suffering St Kilda supporter, Mick Minahan for a Pimms.
 
Re: City of Moorabbin Cricket Association 09/10

Very interesting statistics clocker, there is no doubt ANA, Bent unit & Omega have very strong 3rds,4ths,5ths even 6ths, however you would think the strength of a club would be in the performance of its first XI, a premiership in any grade is fantastic, but I am sure some of the lower grade flags have been won with players who perhaps shouln't have been playing in that grade.
My theroy is based purely on the last 10 grand finals in Longy, 20 points for 1st, 10 points for 2nd
ESBC 150 points (7 flags, 1 R/U)
Bent Unit 30 (1/1)
Omega 30 (1/1)
West Bent 30 (0/3)
Hamp Cent 20 (0/2)
Bri Cent 20 (1/0)
Bri Union 10 (0/1)
Moor West 10 (0/1)

I know this theroy has flaws eg. Ham Cent, Bri Cent & Moor West are not in longy at the moment, but it clearly shows who is the strongest club in the comp, and the rest have alot of catching up to do.
 
Re: City of Moorabbin Cricket Association 09/10

Clocker,

You obviously have too much time on your hands or your employer is not getting his monies worth from you.

Uncle Mick,

Yes Dave is back on the scene and there is not garantee that he will have any original material on the rejecting of LBW's for you.I agree that you don't respond to derogatory comments and you know who is wasting his time throwing me any bait,he doesn't exist.

Adam

The way the saints are going it maybe a struggle for us to loose.I can just see the ANA guestbook light up as the Saints crash out of the finals when the play out in the open with no roof as they don't know how to play away from Etihad.

Not sure that I want to stomach a pimms but I will endeavour to drag myself away from my boundary line companion Archie to see the Dees go round one more time without trying!

Have heard there is a bit of movement at the station in one of the Bluff Rd Cup teams with a former skipper now directing traffic!Stay tuned.

BBQ's will now have to be known as the aquas so as to not confuse them with the money bag sky blues from Patterson rd.Have heard the Aquas recruiting drive has not reached epic proportions and they could struggle to fill longy and the Bluff Rd cup games.

Arch

You are working too hard you need to get on here and get Blairy off your tail.Good Luck Blairy as you and young Robert try to reverse the 2nd semi result and get St.Peters over the line on Sunday.Sadly the twin calicos are in moth balls for the next 6 months.

until next time.........................vino sipping poster....................Merlot

You concern is touching my Vino sipping friend. I work for myself and I am doing very well thank you very much.If comrade Rudd is successful with his tax upon industry for the biggest myth ever perpertrated upon mankind (Global warming) then I may have to move my operations offshore.More useless stats to follow shortly.................

You have raised some good points and I do not necessarily disagree with you. The focus is always on winning first grade flags and The Juggernaut has clealry been the bench mark over the past decade.The Big 4 clubs have done the hard work over 30 years and ensured that their respective clubs are involved with a focus on being successful and that in itself sets new bench marks and goals.It is not coincidental that the harder they work the more success they achieve.A good blue print for other clubs trying to become successful.
 
Re: City of Moorabbin Cricket Association 09/10

Does anyone know if Bunting has been appointed captain of the woods yet?
Now that Anos gone you'd think he would be next in line.
