DVCA Juniors

Re: DVCA Juniors

scratch that your probably correct, why dont you, moderator check the ip adress history of the other people who you claimed to be myself.
bagging is criticism mate its the same thing, either way your ability is being put down and thats life learn to cop it because not everyone will rate u as either a sportsman or a bloke so u gotta learn to cop it sometime, sooner the better.
syntho wickets were much better for a medium pacer like myself because movement off the seam was something i could produce very easily.
all weather pitches have deffs killed the local game as it encourages back foot shots off decent length deliveries which at any decent level will kill you.
all weather pitches should be canned, disgrace to the local player as far as im concerned

Bagging is just bagging mate. Seriously thats it.

Ribbing and jest are another thing.

You have no idea what charactore is or how you get it if you believe some of the crap you write,

The rest of your posts are great and constructive to the site

Re: DVCA Juniors

i get canned every week on the field by umpires and players alike for running my mouth on the field, face to face.
just ask dylan forster.
he copped a barrage the other day ,
and many a complaint was made.

get ribbed and give ribbing. thats how it works.
and if you cant deal with it well so be it .

now that i can post my heart out, i still will refrain from commenting on one, brad gedge's cricketing ability. as many expletives would be used in a very sour manner. so i will stop myself, i have self control.

Re: DVCA Juniors

i would like to promote a mate of mine from dvca being a young gun from diamond creek.
look out for dylan campbell if he sticks with his cricket, the boy is a talent.
Footy is starting to fade away slightly for him so i can see him becoming a star of the dvca in years to come and even in other comps as high as district level.
mitch johnson having a strange year isnt he, couple of tons then a couple of ducks.
i predict he will be alot more consistent after xmas with scores floating between 30 and 80.
good player, expect him to do well in the carnie in jan.
xx

Guys now that is a good post, really thats good

Cheers

agree about dylan heard some good thing about him. And with Mitch he is a gun and things will turn soon. Also watch out for a record partnership with him and abba soon. Both stars!

Re: DVCA Juniors

No point criticising someone without suggesting ways they can improve true? Thats why it's called constructive criticism.

Are the new pitches all weather pitches? (Never heard them called that), but if so, then I agree, Being Short I find it difficult to bat on these as good length deliveries are nearly up around my throat.

They have turned me into a very back foot batsman.

I only seem to really feel comfortable batting on the old synthetics.

yes they are called all weather because if it rains night before they can be played on even if soaking wet.
stupid pitches encouraging pull and hook shots off good balls.
they suit batsman with no technique who like to slog.
and they suit bowlers who bowl very full.
half volleys on all weather are good deliveries which is a bloody joke as far as i am concerned.
i feel sorry for young juniors as they may be stars on all weather but will get killed on turf in the higher comps.
i hope the young juniors practise front foot play on old school syntho otherwise they will struggle in high comps

On field is different to on here where there may be no right of reply.

Good self control,

The more ribbing the better, thats what we want but there is a line between ribbing and abuse,

your not alone mate, everyone is not happy. i also hear that cricket victoria is reviewing them and is most likely going to cease the clubs from relaying them. because it encourages bad cricket.

to those who dont know, they are much darker in colour, spongier under foot and seem to be a lot wider. that is from my own experiences anyway.

rhys, i agree. mitch will be scoring like it is going out of fashion after the break. pity it isnt like that for myself really.

also, dylan is a very good cricketer and a good kid. head is in the right spot, but with success comes self opinion. will be interesting to see how he is after a rep selection ? hopefully we will see him representing us in the january carnivals.

Tru they are making some ordinary bowlers better than they are.

I hope we are not stuck with them but fear we are.

Interseting, would love to see CV change but fear that costs resulting in covering old style pitches make these better for councils and they will have a say.

Hope not though, bring back the old

Very good post.

As this is only my second full year in cricket, I started developing the front foot technique, and then when these pitches came in I had to have a back and across trigger movement as even half volleys would bounce up around the bottom of my ribs.

If I come right forward on these pitches I expect to get hit on the glove, only hope is trying to get it on the full toss.

Btw. Thanks for the info, I thought it was a bad thing only being able to bat and bowl well on the old pitches. I still bowl well on the new ones, but half volleys go over stump height, and batting I can make runs on the new ones, but find it harder and my strike rate has slumped.

Re: DVCA Juniors

who do reckon is the best sledger in junior cricket. I heard Abbatangelo dished a bit out to the kid that dropped him on saturday. Anyone else?

Re: DVCA Juniors

Yeah,

I too am not a fan of the "All-Weather" Pitch.
I batted on it in round one this year. I managed to make a few, but was batting so far outside of my crease simply because every well-pitched ball on a synthetic pitch would be kicking up near my head on the all weather.

he should be in hatch thats for sure, boy can definetely play.
Young talent in the dvca is coming from basically 4 or 5 clubs being plenty, riverside, research,new and my old mob d creek.
this is concerning as many clubs seem to not know how to develop/mentor younger players.
in future look for these clubs to continue to dominate the region/comp.
keep your eyes out for a young lad from creek by the name of jacob ireland.
i played under 16s last year and he filled in a couple of games and got 10 odd not out a few times. look for him as a batsman, left arm pace bowler and a great keeper too!
the boy can do anything, he and ejaaz alavi will run the comp in a few seasons

Re: DVCA Juniors

and with the current global economic crisis occuring,
im sure the 5000? dollars it would cost to get a new pitch down would be just placing too much strain on local councils.
if they have enough money to pay muppets to sit in offices all day, they have money to service the people.
and the people want good pitches! because good pitches makes for good cricket.
HAPPY DAYS (Y)

Yes we just have to vote for the correct person that supports local sport, every local and state election. If not we are R$%&ed

Re: DVCA Juniors

My club has a half light green brand new one, and half all weather pitch.

The light green (Not old but new, and of different material) is weird, it slows up with variable bounce, but still half volleys can kick up around your ribs. Any chance that this was meant to be cricket victoria's solution?

Re: DVCA Juniors

from what iv'e played on plentys new pitch is the worst in the comp.
half trackers can roll and a good length ball will bounce over my head (im not the tallest character by all means) id rather synthetic anyday.

Re: DVCA Juniors

good sledgers seem to evade my mind!
but there are some which think they are,
yet they are laughable.

some of the clubs which lie in growth corridors need to reinvigorate the development programs, and follow something like the DC model for example.

a strong platform encouraging younger players to begin in modified or development, and ease them through so they have a solid 2/3 years of cricket behind them before playing 12 1's. then the step up to 14's the coaching becomes more personal and incentives like shaun brown 'scholarships' are offered as incentive to perform for a season. also with good people in charge of the club, people who have a certain love for the club helps as well .
having grown up around the club, it is evident that these people really do help.

so clubs like south morang, yarrambat and mernda as much as i hate to say, with a little bit of work starting now. could become powerhouses in the future.
forget your riversides and plentys.
not the creek though , they will be good forever yep yep
