Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade

My bad. I stand corrected.

Sugar, or anyone ANA for that matter, care to elaborate on the circumstances of the Woolnough game? I'm very interested to know why your club would think it was ok to play with a 2 piece ball and not advise the umpire or the opposition. One can understand there being an accident and bringing the wrong ball to a game, but someone, if not everyone, knew you were playing with a 2 piece ball. Pretty pathetic effort in my opinion. Wreaks of cheating.

Bloody oath!!!
They reckon they accidently took the wrong ball (which i can understand), but then not to notice for 13 overs that it was a 2 piece is ridiculous. 13 overs of bowling and passing the ball around the field and not one person noticed is a joke. They would have known before a ball was bowled and if not then at least after a couple of balls were bowled. The opening bowler stares at the pill before each delivery early on in the game. It took one of the batsmen to niced what was going on.

There was no official umpire which would not have helped matters.I can't understand why all Woolnough games do not have an umpire allocated.I understand that they are short but still the top grades should get priority. I find it hard to believe that ANA would have tried to put one over ES for 65 overs. It probably highlights something many have suspected, that quick bowlers are not the sharpest tools in the box.Although if the shoe had been on the other foot there would have been a huge issue made out of this incident, perhaps even claiming the points if past form of ANA is used as a guide.
 
Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade

Regarding the Woolnough game, from what I gather it was imply an honest error with the wrong ball being supplied to the team. We have 6 teams varying in all grades, so when the balls come out in preparation for each grade, sometimes mistakes happen.

While ignoring over the top posts from others, it is quite embarassing for our club, no question about that.
 
Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade

Sugar, we can appriciate that you grabbed the wrong ball off the table (or another team grabbed the 4-piece or whatever happened) but you're not addressing the main issue. Surely one of the 11 ANA players would have noticed you were using a 2-piece in the 78 balls that were bowled. Are you saying that no bowler, fielder or keeper noticed this? Please answer that for us.
And as mentioned above, i'm sure if East Sandy were the one using the 2-piece it would be a completely different story. We'd be copping the cheat call from the entire CMCA, you blokes will probbaly just cop it next week in the 1 dayer and then that will be the end of it.
 
Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade

Come on, Sugar. You're avoiding a serious issue. We can all overlook an honest mistake of suplpying a team with the wrong ball, but 13 overs and at 4/31 there wasn't a word from your boys. Surely someone who wasn't in the know must've asked whether or not you were supposed to be playing with a 2 piece after playing with a 4 piece the week before...?
Ignore the previous posts all you like, this is a matter that the CMCA needs to look at. Those actions are not ones to be condoned. Someone was knowingly cheating.
Let's not forget East Sandy refused to continue the game, Marto. I think they should've played on and both had a crack with a 2 piece ball with ANA to receive a fine and suspension of their skipper (or at least a severe suspended sentence hanging over the his head).
 
Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade

this is not on in my comp i will be lookin into this rubbish and i will also be reporting anyone that makes any comments about the game or the ball. i also read many comments about umpires and they are also not to be commented about. now that i am prez this sh!t will stop. i run a well oiled machine here
 
Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade

West Bentleigh look gone. CMCA Nerd might want to focus more on his cricket than gobbing off on a forum. They've got the boys from the zoo next up. Another season at 0-3 they can write off. What a bunch of pretenders after promising so much in their first season of Longmuir cricket. Seems like "my idol" (Stacey Brown) carried that club. Looks like they'll have to invest their hard earned a bit better next year.


hardly think that at 1-0 as opposed to 0-3 as u so accurately put it u can write a season off UM. id be more worried about your mob mick or are u putting in a mid season clearance application for rd 3?
maybe u should just quit cricket alltogether and concentrate on gobbing off on the sidelines for your beloved shampton. u having a run this year or just going to concentrate on cheering ur team on to another grand final loss?

I'm well aware of that. Why would any team continue when they are 4/31 and obviously in a bit of trouble when the other mob has been cheating. We could easily protest and get the points without playing a ball next week but we've made a sportsman-like decision and turned the game into a regular one-day game. Oh, and just in case the ANA boys are wondering, we use a 4-piece in one day games.

Burger,
I understand your policy about not responding to annonymous bloggers, and have no issue with it.It’s your choice.
We have already seen 4 or 5 blogs from people purporting to be someone and we then find out it is not them. I am not interested in defaming or slandering anyone.Just talk a little bit of s*** across cyberspace about a game we all love.We are all associated with a club(s) and frankly I do not want to be accused of doing something or saying something for which I was not responsible. It might be a joke at the time, but the ramifications can last for a long time. There is also the issue that some of the bloggers who access this and other sites are mean spirited, envious individuals who have no life and only exist to inflict their misery on others.

East Sandy will be to good for a gallant ANA.
Hampton Central and Maysie will have another day out against his favourite team the Machine.
Wash Ups (the Chelsea of the CMCA) will win but want to be careful on the deceptively slow Le Page ground.
Union to beat Omega outright.
West Bentleigh will beat Elwood. (toss up)
Bentleigh Uniting to bounce back against Carnegie South at the postage stamp.
Good luck to everyone on the weekend.

Good tip idiot! That's looking the goods isn't it?!
 
Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade

Looking good. Dont underestimate the Ommies. They have some good young bowlers playing in there 1's. They have already picked up 1 wicket. A couple of quick ones in the early overs from Clement and Kloss and they are right back in it. There will be some nerves from the union captain who will be out to prove a point with the bat. But will nerves get the better of him? :confused:

To RHB,

I think you might have your hand on something other than your bat, you struggled to contain The Redbacks last week and fell over the line.
Union will bat right down like last week, and will probably bat all day for around
250 - 300.
The Mooselium will be confident and will want create some carnage, but you are right about one thing, early wickets will be the key.

I know my new team and club very well, first to training last to leave.
I spend 5 nights a week working on training stratergys and opposition and train there twice a week.
I watch the juniors Saturday morning and work with the 17s Captains i do well and truly whats req i give 110% as i always have. You must not know me hence your remarks you peanut.
I have always i mean always had this approach to my cricket ask my lady she would say cricket consumes my life.
If my new club would get upset well they have to get use to it, i played for 11 years at BUCC and have alot of mates there i have earnt the right to defend them as they are very much a big part of my life.
I also have played cricket and known Brudar Burger & Flav long enough to have chats with them.
That is why i talk here if you can't swallow that then don't respond or maybe move on.

Well spare me, don't you realise that when you take something on that you need to put the time into it, all you've done is state the obvious Brett my boy.
I didn't say anything about Uniting, and as far as chats go, i see you've tried on the other forum but failed, no one seems to want to talk to you.
As far as your cricket goes, your no different to 100 people who commit to their clubs every year.
Ive also got mates at Uniting, so who's the peanut?
 
Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade

I disagree i think Delac will struggle to hold the nerves down. He struggles early! They do bat all the way down but funnier things have happened.
Not sure how we struggled against the Redbacks we rolled them for 180. two players made runs. They were 5 for 70. It was the batting that struggled. but we still have the 4 points doesnt matter how you win.

Hahaha... mine was a tongue in cheek comment.

Firstly Archie - To bring a bit of clarity, might I add that I don't ever see my club getting themselves up to Longmuir. We're fast becoming the next Chelt Park with the same old contributors year in and year out and no junior sides to feed the club it's next generation.
To be brutally honest, we're going nowhere and we'll get there fast. The club is hanging in on the back of the Corr family's efforts and the playing group are simply a bunch of park cricketers looking to have a hit on a Saturday. Wins are bonuses.
Unfortunately, that's where my allegiance is and whilst I harbour ambitions to pursue the career I started last year, I feel that I can't turn my back on the club that has raised me, in it's time of need. More so I owe it to a person like Tony Corr who's life is that club.
I've tried to introduce a new way of life at the club, drawing on my experience from last season, but it continually falls on deaf ears as these "kids" show no interest in making the commitment required to develop them personally and as a group.
I welcome any person to question my intentions of being a big fish in a small pond, but the reality is in it's 46 years of existence the Flahive name has been synonymous with Highett West. It's unfortunate that we don't have the measures in place to make the club a success, but such is life.

And as for my opening the batting, Brett.... I would've thought 71 against last year's premiers justifies that decision.

UM,
My comments were not ment to offend, just stating the obvious, and i'm fully aware of the work your family have done, and also what the Corrs are doing at your club.
I have been on committee's myself and understand the enormity of running clubs in this day and age, its harder now as the new breed of youth can sometimes be perplexing to say the least.
Maybe you've hit the nail on the head, perhaps an amalgamation with Chelt Park could be an issue to discuss in the future, we don't wish the demise of a club on anyone, keep in there until the last wicket, great to see you have passion.

He does get the shakes early, no issues there, but you only past The Redbacks with one ball to spare, hardly convincing chasing 180 odd.
Your batting is still obviously struggling my friend, with only 162 on the board this week.
Trying to defend a small score on a ground that Union play well on, is going to test your bowling big time, but thats what happens when you are in re-building mode.
The one thing that may happen is that sometimes its harder chasing small totals than large one's, for some reason its in the head, and sides sometimes struggle.
 
Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade

The Sharks are back town boys!
230 will be far too much for Le Page. Good to see a few of the boys get amongst the runs as well. Watch out CMCA, it's Jaws revisited.....

THE SHARKS ARE ON THE LOOSE!!!
 
Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade

Any chance Guy Martyn is going to have a run for Sandy this year?

Or will he just turn up to a session before x-mas and think he is good enough to walk into the side,i played against the arrogant C**t in juniors and thought he was gods gift to cricket....

Ever since he started seniors has not done one thing to impress, but still thinks he rules the comp.
and has had every injury in the book,thstop thsookin about your injuriess..
toughen up printhethhhh...
