Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade
Quite enjoyed that one, Sugar. Only took "Mikko" 12 episodes to show a bit of personality. Good to see the boy's got some "C" in him and get passionate about an issue. He need only look on mycricket to find that the 2 Harrys (Sherrard & Stamos) were adjudicating the Rd.11 game. It's an interesting point he makes too. Having heard that story, he's spot on in accusing the tribunal panel of being no longer in touch with the game. Seems quite farcical such a sanction was imposed for a heated exchange between 2 captains in a game that had so much riding on it for both teams.

Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade
Sorry mate I just wanted the punters to know in case anyone made a late plunge of a couple of gorillas on you. Who knows you may be back, don't write it off just yet.By the way JEEEEEESSSSSUUUUSSS, did Mr Mikkelson absolutely let fly....You can remove him from the top 6 in tonights count.I suspect he may have to show cause as to why he should not be joining Mr P. in missing one round next season.Even dropped the magic 'F' word. Absolute Gold and award winning stuff.It would be great to know what actually happened and if anyone knows please share it with some of us who live under a mushroom or don't have the contacts.

Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade
Clocker,
I've just returned from overseas trying to chase down ''Merlot the Magician'', he was tempting me with droplets of ink allover the subways of India.
Your stats are fine, however The SON OF CHAMP will go back to back in the big gig and pick up his second Knights award.
Forget the report in the last game, he would have polled well in most of the other games, and will have enough votes in the bank,he is the best and most consistant bat in the comp at the moment, and not too far away from being the best alrounder.
His report was a shambles, as was the tribunal process, it has cost the Nepean boys a shot at the title as he would have certainly been the difference.
Interestingly, there was alot of debate on Sunday night reagrding the venues for the the big two games, with the yellow caps not too happy about playing on the green top at Mackie as they believe that the Victory boys would have an advantage.
Seems strange that the big gig is on the second best conditioned ground at the moment, Mackie is looking a treat and should have got the Longy.
When are the power brokers going to insist that all clubs have the same surface, instead of playing on that all weather bouncy crap.
I wonder, is that the real reason why the best ground didn't get the big game.

Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade
It is an accepted fact within the top echalon that Mackie is considered 'club non grata' Robbo hates them with a passion and cannot hide his distaste for them.The rest have no great love notwithstanding all the work Rainey puts in.It has already been whispered amongst some of the power brokers that if Buddha trips up next year he will go for quite a few matches.He has not won any friends by burning Pothitos, but he will not lose sleep over it.Frankly it is about time Pothitos got over his angry short man syndrome and grew up...sorry poor pun.

Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade
Uncle Mick what would life be without a bit of mystery?I just threw up a few names to get a bit of debate going and it caused a bit of discussion.Has Jimmy organised you a media pass for tonight or has Barrack and Hilary thrown it open to Wooly clubs as well.Will Barrack bore us again in his Andrew Demetriou like reading of the votes.
The junior Golden Greek as Archie says has a chance to go back to back unlike Harry S would will not be getting a tillett medal this year.Two newbies have shortened to 5 burger bourbons to 4 to get the big dance.
As I understand it Barrack did change the rules a few seasons ago regarding reported players and awards.My fading memory vaguely recalls a big name either winning or being denied a top award.I am sure Jimmy will be able to dig it up at the Bugle archives!
Army my limited computer skills haven't allowed me to reply by PM yet.
Archie good to hear from you and I would have stopped the rickshaw if I had known you were on my coat tails in the other land of cricket dictatorship!
Do Barrack and co actually have a finals ground policy or were they worried that the keyboard sticker could be putting it around the years of the East Bentleigh sports club bowlers.
Where have all the gold cap marlins disappeared to, I hope they haven't chucked it in like Murali!Maybe they are stocking the canteen for the clash when the sharks make a splash with the Lake mob.
A liitle bird told me Mikko's favourite tribunal sent B home before giving evidence.Don't just sack the tribunal Mikko ,sack the executive for inadequate and ineffective performance.
Jimmy I look forward to your media wrap of the Brownlow and it will be interesting who the BBQ mob elevate to legend status by taking Charlie home.

Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade
Great effort by you to report it here first, Sugar. After looking at the CMCA website to find the result and scrolling to the umpire's section to check the appointments, I noticed even this hasn't been changed since the semi final weekend. What gives?? I'm curious to know how many burger bourbons will Merlot be set back....
What was the top 5? And how many votes?

Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade
Can't argue with that. Bunter's love child probably just snuck in for the 12th man duties with a last round performance. And proved why he should be in the XI with a brilliant 1st semi backed up with the bat & ball in the Prelim. Can never underestimate the ability of those who perform well in finals.

Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade
Congratulations to all who made the team, no issues with the selection except the club which wasn't represented must be a bit peeved, so too, the player.
How can you have the ''captain of the year'', '' not in the team of the year ''.
Mind boggling, but its been a big year in CMCA Cricket and i suspect one that they are hoping to finish soon.
Back to the drawing board on a number of issues i'd suspect.
Big slap on the back to old Arch for tipping the junior chimp to go back to back, congrats to all the players on great seasons.

Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade
Archie,
That encounter with the Indian bookmaker certainly paid dividends with your spot on prediction of the junior Golden Greek going back to back.Did you clean up on the Burger bourbons generous odds with Bertie the bagman?I hear that Barrack is sending the CIA into field to see if there has been a pre count leak to allow Archie to clean up?I am still waiting for Jimmy to clarify the rule of a suspended player collected the award.Also I understand the JGG maybe in line for further honours but will Barrack's rules prevent the collection of such items?
The woman on the train told me that the Gold Caps refused to play at Bowling club park as the grass was too green,and they preferred the canteen which will be open at the Home of cricket.What happened to the boutique ground with the warm and cosy feeling of being so close to the players you could hear them breath, ground policy of the CMCA?
Adam you are a champion producing the goods with the important news from last night and both putting it on the CMCA's no one website and the fast becoming number one forum.You had me confused with your multiple youtubes as I started with the one minute version and only got to the others by accident.How many should I have viewed?The ones I saw were gold logie material and Phil should give up golf and just do Barrack bashing fulltime, he got my 3 2 and 1 votes for an outstanding performance even dropping the F bomb.Maybe Barrack should be sent a copy.
Clocker what happened to you leaving Finney out of the equation and what has Robbo's dislike of Mackie got to do with where the big dance is played?
How can the team of the year be captain by a dud who doesn't even captain his own side?Was there some sort of equalibrium sought by naming a player from each side and then the only club missing again picking up the prestigious captain of the year trophy once again from the BBQ mob at the big night at the Le Page Park Hilton tonight.Also why wasn't there a BBQ of the year named as has happened previously?Did Barrack the selector just veto it?
Uncle Mick firstly in the words of Pauline Hanson ' Please explain ' what did you mean about Merlot doing his burger bourbons?I haven't outlayed any yet!
Bertie the Bagman has 10 burger bourbons to 9 that Allen and Stamos will get the big dance with big mac and the sight screen doing Wooly.No doubt Archie would have got better odds from his Indian book maker!as quoted earlier Ham & cheese's mob are a big chance to pick up the arvo tea award but we may never find out unless Adam is there to record the winners.Maybe Phil and Adam could do a special BBQ youtube show?
Uncle Mick I would hope Jimmy would be taking you into SEN tonight for the big GF preview as a reward for your outstanding work on the forum.I look forward to hearing your dulcete tones down the airways.
I heard that Barrack and another cohort heard the junior Golden Greek appeal and it was over quicker than the Boris Becker stint in the broom cupboard with a Murali type action of it being thrown straight out.Has the parliamentarian lost his sting?
Finally I did managed to pick up a couple of $5.99 Merlot bottles at the German supermarket and look forward to sampling a drop tonight with a look at the Footy show with that great Demon champion Gary Lyon at the helm.
Archie good luck for junior archie in the junior big dance on Saturday morning I am sure he will pull off a win like his father did on numerous occassions.Enjoy the Horlicks and I will get Dolly to get the gaff ready in case of any gold cap marlin entering the tranquil forum waters.
Enjoy that one day or perhaps it is really two days in March!
until next time Merlot

Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade
Merlot,
I have assumed you must be retired to write these 3 page comments you come up with, only adds to the mystery... I do however think you are a duel /alias poster.. a few to many similarities with one other member on here for my liking..'MMMM????
I do find it unbelievable that the comp hasn't updated the website in GF week.. umpires app's?? Brownlow night??? Umpires night???
I think we should also mention the MC skills of Homer J.(jimmy) on Charlie night, very good knowledge of the comp & players,good job all round.. But Homer.. like Symonds said at the AB medal last year to Slat's, leave jokes up to the funny men
Just glad Robbo didn't have to read out Ano for votes or the half the room would of needed a raincoat-Duddy is not normally so shy, gave him absolutely nuth'n, that was gold Jerry...
!!
very high quality side selected-most years there are a few who you think lucky but not this year..very good stats from all (can't remember a year where so many many bats got in the 500 range??), I personally think you need HJ's luvchild (Chop) in your 11 as not the worlds greatest figures but "gets the job done" when needed..
Having said this I think this is what might be costly at the big dance for the Wester's this weekend, need a big game (runs) from 1 of the brothers/Frewy or the "wild thing" AR to have a day out,just think the Goldie's have a few more consistent contributors which is vital in big games.. Gold caps to salute again, but in a very tight contest..
WB will need to bat first if they are to win, & hope the Zoo boys get the wobbles.. If ES bat first tell joffer to bring his jacket=Game Over
not sure of the exact stats for all but their GF record is fairly impressive, not only the wins but have generally won with a leg inda air.. except for the game at Wallet park think they were 5/ 50?/not many chasing 180'sh then Dudd's & Corpy (I think) passed them 5 down.. All others have been convincing..
My Burger bourbons are going on ES & Cracker for BOG/ Normy
Good luck to all on the big stage this weekend !!!

Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade
I hope you're not alluding to me being responsible for Merlot's posting, Nick! We may share a similar vocation, but his diction is far from what I consider mine to be. As articulate as he is, a stickler for grammar and syntax Merlot certainly isn't.
Couldn't agree more with your summation of the big dance this weekend. East Sandy are far too consistent across the board and West would have to bat first to be a real chance. As much as it'd be good for the game to see Ray find a new home, I can't bring myself to tip against the former club. Hoping for a cracking contest that ends in a nailbiter with the gold caps just getting home.
Should East Sandy salute, I reckon the dodgy hammies of M.Jenkin will see Harry Morgan hanging around his neck by 6pm Sunday arvo. Should the reverse happen, then a big all-round performance from Sophie's old man is my tip for the "best on" honours.
In Wooly, young Rayner's my tip to lead Kingston Heath's charge into Longmuir for 09/10.

Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade
Clocker what happened to you leaving Finney out of the equation and what has Robbo's dislike of Mackie got to do with where the big dance is played?
Spent too much time trawling for Sugars figures.I wanted an honest plugger in the mix. Speaking of which, will Sugar withdraw his comment made on the Logie nominated youtube ANA GF episode in which he accused Buddha of ‘burning’ King Leonidas? (Con Pothitos).Is it true that he was not required to give evidence since a guilty plea was entered?
I did not believe that Finney would greet the judge as the Sharks did get towled a few times this year.
If you believe that the head of the BBQ's has no influence then you have been sipping one to many Merlot's and indulging in funny smelling weed.
Robbo’s beloved Moorabbin West will be at the bowling club on the weekend so he will have to put up with being around the place, much to his chagrin. Rain and storms predicted for the weekend (suspect the lads at the weather bureau indulge the Merlot based on their forecasts) which could force the reserve day to be used.Let’s hope Mossy does not walk off the ground like he did last season when there was a clap of thunder 30 miles away from the bowling club and the opposition were on the verge of losing a one day match.Every other game played on, except Mossy’s match. Interesting how there was no controversy about that one.
Nothing updated on the CMCA website, well that is a shock. Why doesn’t the CMCA outsource the website to India? It would save a heap of time.
Tip the upset and back West Bentleigh.They are on a roll and as long as they kept a lid on the celebrations last week they may just pull it off. Whilst in the Woolnough Plate the Westars to win.They have been training at the bowling club for the past two weeks, so they should be very familiar with the ground.It might just be the edge they need against the Kookas. Bentleigh Uniting-v- Wash ups in C grade should be an interesting encounter.Tipping Brett & Baracks mob to get up in a tight one. Good luck to all.

Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade
Clocker, all I can do is relay what I hear... I may have said "supposedly" in there. Great disclaimer for ownership of liability!
I enjoyed the very focussed body language of the West Bentleigh boys in preparation for the Grand Final on Wednesday night, particularly Chopper Reid. Gave nothing when interviewed, like everyone else in front of the microphone... except for the great Cedric Jansz.
Loved Chopper's body language on stage being given the 12th man in team of the year (which was an ordinary choice... would have put him above Handley and maybe Amoore). Did not look like he wanted to be there, nor be captained by Anton Duddy.
Classic theatre!
This weekend: Heart says West, Head says East.

Loved Chopper's body language on stage being given the 12th man in team of the year (which was an ordinary choice... would have put him above Handley and maybe Amoore). Did not look like he wanted to be there, nor be captained by Anton Duddy.
Classic theatre!
This weekend: Heart says West, Head says East.
Merlot a good drop

Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade
Burger,
There is only one Buddy Big head with 2 s.....s,and there is only one Merlot whether he/she is magician,a mystery or whatever.I do not have a dual identity,some even think they know who I am.After B's threat of not showing my dial at the oasis I cannot join Robbo there.
Am I retired? From work certainly not I have financial interests in the sub continent which take me away from Oz occassionaly.Being a grand father I am retired from cricket but have played against some of you forumsters in the past but am not ready for Johnny Hamers team yet.I have many contacts in the CMCA present and past executive members,present and past BBQ members,and many many people in CMCA land.While some of you are well known and I know quite a lot of who you are and even send a few of them into hiding occassionally I will just stick with Merlot and continue the mystery.I even know who you think my alias / dual identity is but you are way off the mark.
Burger what is your club (whichever one you are at) at the moment going to do about the disgraceful lack of updating of the excuse for a website so of you need to tell them to get their act together or maybe I will need to be in touch with some of my Indian business interests to take the updating off shore.
How will you go with the pies tomorrow and how will you handle Micky Aldred the former and still the fastest gun in the west?
Sugar did you get to the le page Park Hilton for the Big BBQ night and have you got any info on the awards / appointments,I am sure Ham & cheese is on the end of his sandwich in anticipation.
Clocker I am warming to you and there is every chance you could join Uncle Mick in my inner circle.I hope you are not a dual identity of UM just because you share some of his thoughts!What a great reply to my questions and no I hadn't been on the Merlot as I know the head of the BBQ mob has very little say and will head to the oasis begrudgingly.Barrack is in control of the good ship CMCA and wouldn't tolerate a BBQ interferring.The head of the BBQ mob has enough trouble with other outside influences!
B was not required to give evidence and was sent home only for the excuse for a panel to realise they needed his words of wisdom when the junior Golden Greek while pleading guilty implicated B in the preceedings.
Uncle Mick I have left the best til last and unlike Burger it seems that you know me as you are spot on. I am not very articulate and my financial back ground sees me better with figures than words.I don't think Burger was referring to you as the mole as again he is no where near the mark!
I like yours and clocker's summation of the big dances and while I could not ever tip a gold cap win I agree that the sky blues are motoring home at the right time but the sagpies showed last night that when Fred Astair and Ginger Rogers get onto the big dance floor you need the big game experience to get you through, even when bringing an unbeaten run to the G/F.I am also looking for a good tight game of cricket and may pop into the oasis in disguise or just motor the Beemer into the home of cricket car park and watch through the tinted windows.Then again I might cruise past Gold cap park to see if they have found the bolt cutters to prise open the canteen for the big clash between the lakers and the sharks!
Enjoy the weekend and let's hope we don't need the reserve day and if you see Barrack doing his rounds tell him to lift his game!
Until next time Merlot

Re: CMCA- Ommies to remain in top grade
Saturday morning 10:43 probably half of you are not out of bed yet.Merlot has been for the power walk along the beach and beat the deluge we had to have!
The drought seems to always break on Grand Final day but Barrack has done one of the rare efficient actions of his poorly run administration by scheduling a reserve day.
I hope there is some play possible today.
