But the DV clubs voted for GCC to come in, so they dont seem to be that worried about the inconvenience of the bye or it would have been knocked on the head last night
I'm sure Macleod went straight into Money at the time they went over, shortly after that the constitution was changed thus the vote last night. Anyway,hopefully the bye is only for one season.

Didnt Macleod come in the year Wattle Glen folded? Im pretty sure they did..
 
Re: DVCA Money Shield

depsite how good his hair and nails may look, the second best player in the comp, Jordy Collicoat has found form at the right time, with both ball and bat, his performance today set up the grand final birth for the wanderer!

that's right, 20 votes in favour i think, and have no issue with Greensborough playing in the d.v.c.a, just seems to have happened very quickly, from a club perspective. i know the executive of the d.v.c.a. and reps of the G.C.C had met previously and the d.v.c.a. were very impressed and urged the clubs to vote in favour.
And don't take as gospel that because the vote was so one sided that this indicates the feelings of all clubs, with 10 days notice of the special meeting i'd be suprised if many clubs actually had formal discussions at all in regards to the way they voted.

Good luck though, i have nothing against your club, infact i have your "greenlough" ( club chamion award ) at mum & dad's joint i think, my brother won it about 20 years ago!!!!

Hey picker whats up?

Could you or someone else please clarify a rumour that is starting to circulate that NEW will be recalling Brett Temple for this weekends semi to bolster their bowling stocks and stop their batsman (Al Mann and Collicoat) sending down trash? Rest assured though their worst bowler (Ethan Groves) is still in. Ozzie Mann will have to take 9 fa to give them a shot (with Temple taking the other 1)

No need for temple in the ones. Wanderers into the GF

Agree. Lets just let this be. On a different note, what are peoples picks?

Pickers Ponderings for the Semi-Finals.

NEW to defeat St Francis
After going back through this forum and identifying the Franks Big Heads it is quite easy to assume that they thought this season finished in round 3.
The Franks are far from being in the best of form and didn't get close to bowling NEW out last time.
Rumour has it those duffers from Hurstbridge dropped 9 catches last week which included Duggin before he had scored (Could he bat any lower) and rely heavily on an old obese guy batting at 3 that is hit or miss.
Their popgun bowling attack would surely be ranked as one of the worst in the comp with over 700 runs being conceded in the last 3 games and a heavy reliance on a spinner who doesn't spin it.

Morang to defeat Bats
Could come up with numerous reasons why but quite simply the Bats haven't got the guts or the mental hardness to play finals. During the home and away season when big Ronnie slags off at all of the kids in the comp he gets gets away with it, but the Morang boys with a combined I.Q of 57 won't be intimidated.
Maybe College and Yarrambat can play a 20/20 match on Grand Final Day so at least one of them will know what its like to win in March.

Re: DVCA Money Shield

North Eltham scored their greatest ever victory in defeating the highly fancied St Francis of Assisi by 4 runs in a spine tingling semi final at Sycamore Reserve. Chasing an improbable 323, Akshay Naidoo and Alastair Mann provided a solid platform with a 63 run opening partnership, before Mann (21) was dismissed, then lost Jesse Smith on the same score. St Francis was on top at this stage. Peter Mann joined Naidoo and the pair added another 52 runs before Naidoo fell for a well compiled 61 with the score 4/150.

Jordan Collicoat scored a classy 48, but when Matthew Duckworth was run out for 31, with the score at 7/226, a win was seemingly out of reach of the Wanderers as they needed to score 100 runs in the last 9 overs. St Francis went on the defensive with several players on the boundary, but canny batting from Clint Monger, scoring at a run a ball, and a brutal Jack Young gave the Wanderers a sniff of victory. The target became 65 runs off 29 balls, but when Young (30 odd 18 balls) was dismissed at 8/267, St Francis had the upper hand. Enter Austin Mann. Mann and Monger attacked the bowling and the game was within reach of the Wanderers when they needed 30 runs off 21 balls. In a tense finish, the Wanderers scored the winning runs off the second last over in front of 150 delirious supporters.

The Wanderers had many heroes, but special mention to the unbeaten Clint Monger (42 off 41 balls) and Austin Mann (25 off 11 balls) who smashed their team to a victory, under extreme pressure, in a victory that will never be forgotten at North Eltham. Michael Cocks returned the best bowling figures with 4/84.
 
Re: DVCA Money Shield

Nice wrap up mate, would have been an exciting game to watch, thats what is great about cricket, on any given day the improbable (to some) happens.

Well done to NEW and the Bats.

Hey picker whats up?

Could you or someone else please clarify a rumour that is starting to circulate that NEW will be recalling Brett Temple for this weekends semi to bolster their bowling stocks and stop their batsman (Al Mann and Collicoat) sending down trash? Rest assured though their worst bowler (Ethan Groves) is still in. Ozzie Mann will have to take 9 fa to give them a shot (with Temple taking the other 1)
 
Re: DVCA Money Shield

Great game over the weekend, we thought 323 would have been enough, but unfortunately wasn't. Congratutaions to Al and Richard in getting their team to the grand final. regardless of the result St francis had a great year making the finals for the first time in money shield in their short 11 year histroy. we will be better next year for the experience that we have gained this season.

Temple will not be playing this week but what I can confirm is Collicoat is getting his nails painted tonight and his hair done so he tries to look good while getting smashed all around the park tomorrow. Actually I think Del Mastro is booked in at the same time.

Would love to Pete Mann get runs, he is probably one of the best bats and techniques i have seen at this level of cricket. He and Al are genuine good blokes and good cricketers

Not really, just that the Franks players and supporters thought they had it won throughout our innings, not to mention with 9 overs left when we needed 100ish.
That's what you get for being complacent.

Nothing better than all the NEW fans bursting onto the ground after a 6 to seal the game.

Since when is 11 years short??? Stop making excuses, you just choked! Face reality.....better luck next year Francs ha ha.
Just look at Lalor Stars and Mernda, both in the Barclay final after recently coming up from Money. If they can make the grade in only a few short years, then so can anyone.

Gotta love those gracious winners hey! Ur a fool. At no stage did we think that we had the game won. We set ourselves to play from 12pm-6pm regardless of the result we knew we had to fight it out. We battled hard and simply werent good enough on the day, but to say that the players thought we had it won it is a stupid comment.

On that ground we know how easy it is to score quick runs and we didnt get complacent just didnt execute the right things at the crucial time. We'll be better for the experience but thats one thing all year that we can hold our heads up high for we never got complacent, we never got cocky we worked hard every training session and every game because we knew we had to be at our best to win games of cricket, we didnt expect it to be an easy ride!

Yeah winners are grinners but at least when we win games we are gracious about it, cant say much about alot of your guys unfortunately!

You are a clown cocko. I have no allegiance to either team but your anti fist pumping is a sure sign of being touched inappropriately at some stage. Maybe in the rooms at some stage whilst discussing your 3/78 you got in the 3rds one week it may have happened. At least you wont have to worry about fist pumping if you go up to Barclay because that's the least of your problems.

Since when did fist pumping and being excited at getting a crucial wicket become cocky??

No point argueing, some blokes just havent got a clue.

Good luck to the Bats and North Eltham both deserve to be there after a good year.
 
Re: DVCA Money Shield

Well Well Well - the GF sides are decided.

St Francis: The Lion King is now the Lion Cub. Brett Brett Brett - what happened mate? We'd just booked a meeting with the local council to find a Barclay Ground for you... No excuses mate, your team was like the teenage boy on his first attempt. Peaked too quickly, finished too soon.

NEW - Sacking the coach is the new motivator? Well done to the boys with no home ground. A trip to downtown Barclay after this week? Selection should be a very nasty affair - Stacey in, Smith out (one innings does not make a grand finalist). Probably Temple in for nutty Groves & J Mann for B Monger. All the Mann's in!!

Yarrambat - Big Ronny vs North Eltham this weekend. Will need more than him to survive. Time for Meredith, Holzer and Stewart to do something. Could go either way... make sure you bring your supporters with you. They may be needed for the aftermatch commiserations.

South Orangs - Who would have thought you would make it this far? A bunch of bowlers who cannot bat. Kumar did well as did Crane (where did he come from?). You have not disgraced. My Tip: South Morang the team to watch next year. [Late Mail, just in as I've typed this... Morang coach seen in Westfield coffee shop yesterday with local 'Barclay Blues' Committee man... what's all that about??]

The DO's prediction for the GF: If NEW go with the suggested selections, they will win, NEW on Day #3. Leave Smith & Groves in? - see you here next year.

And finally... before the GF special edition.....

Lower Plenty - Money's too tight to mention; we're talking about Money Money, we're talking about Money Money, we're talking about Money Money, Money Money MONEY! Goodbye to Barclay, farewell to all your $'s. Welcome to the real stuff!
