Pretty embarrassing, when do you guys play Anakie? And what odds can I get on a Day 1 outright result?

Re: GCA Division 3 Previews and Predictions
Maybe there shouldn't be outrights in div3, they happen too often. It seems as though teams don't really put any pride in saving an outright, I'm sure they're just not up to it but geez if you have a look at last seasons results it was almost 1 or 2 every week.
I dunno if it would work just having 1st Innings points and that being the end of the match (except finals) , teams could still bat on for percentage if the really wanted to
Thoughts?

Re: GCA Division 3 Previews and Predictions
It clearly stated that the Anakie team on the weekend had ten batsmen! For someone who doesn't like the addy you certainly spend a lot of time reading it!

Re: GCA Division 3 Previews and Predictions
Maybe they should make it all a one-day 50/50 competition?
Or maybe they should make the whole GCA a one-day 50/50 competition?
I spent 71 overs on the weeekend watching one bloke make 43 runs, was by far the biggest turn-off to cricket I have ever witnessed. Had a couple mates who came down for a day at the cricket and spent the whole day watching the 3rds because the 1sts was like watching paint dry.
NOTE: and before anyone asks "Why didn't you just get him out?" - well our plan was to keep him in because they couldn't win the game with him at the crease.

Re: GCA Division 3 Previews and Predictions
Incorrect Bourke, we were happy for that batsmen to occupy the crease. It was by far the most individualist innings I have seen in my short time on a cricket field.
90 runs needed with 7 wickets in hand with 30 overs to go. Was then left up to the tail/non-recognised batsmen to get the job done whilst the set batsmen went at .75 runs an over, blocking delivery after delivery. Painstakingly brutal to watch.

Cos it was great this Monday hey???? We came within 3 runs of beating the reigning premiers outright, with our SLA geting 5-fer and all they talked about was Spengler chipping a 40 off his a*se and he saved the world! Over it. Had a few. Love Mourilyan and Crime Scene!

Terry Hill will always be living in another SLA'ers shadow down at spring creek reserve, and on so many levels not just confined to the cricket field.... The one, the only, the Tom Aldridge.
