Re: Geelong Cricket '08/'09(gca/bpca)

Having a look at recent posts on GCA2 recruits and whatever else here's my top 6 and the rest

St Peters
Manifold Heights
Waurn Ponds
Highton
Corio
Torquay
north shore
Thomson
Murghebuloc
Alexander Thomson
Bell Park
Marshall

Any thoughts on this? feel free to have a go if you think i'm wrong somewhere

North Shore
Alexander Thomson

Switch them around, North Shore will still be shit. And Thomson will be top 3-4 for sure

Re: Geelong Cricket '08/'09(gca/bpca)

just got opinions on how this season will unfold, cant have every side winning the premiership.

if people think thomson are that good they should say who there better than in the six, simple.

Probably a bit sarcastic by me, but my point was you are quick to go into great detail about Thomson's supposed shortcomings but have not mentioned why you think any of the top 6 you selected are any better. It appears a bit like you hold a vendetta against Thomson, for whatever reason

Re: Geelong Cricket '08/'09(gca/bpca)

mate i do watch it, thats why i'm unbias unlike you obviously.

tell me who the gun bowlers are?

bosworth (never plays) good bowler though richies ok salts ok petterwood pies not a premiership attack to me, couple of bowlers short.

How many of these "gun" bowlers played for Thomson when they dropped to div 2? Bosworth, Riches, Salts?

the only decent fast/med bowlers they've had in recent time would be Brett Anderton and Alex Cektovik, thats why they havnt played alot of finals in recent time, i know they played last year but div2 was a joke last year.

a key fast/med bowler is what wins flags in local cricket.

North Shore
Alexander Thomson

not so sure on thomson, smiljanic doesn't score runs consistently for them to be that good, bowling attack weak and bosworth doesn't play enough, don't forget the improvment of the standard this year.

i think they might not be as good as people think, look at smiljanics gca average well under 30

Re: Geelong Cricket '08/'09(gca/bpca)

might get down for a look soon after the footy season is done with. how did the the great bowmanator hit them, or was he watching on with a frothy in the background.

his training was done last night and into the very early hours......with frothy in hand

 

[Bringbackwarney]

Re: Geelong Cricket '08/'09(gca/bpca)

Disagree, batsmen win flags.

dunno, bowlers can win you a premiership in 1/2 a session batsman can't.

id rather have the best fast bowler in the comp then the best bat.

would you rather: harper at his best or loftus or talarico or kelson which ever one is the best.

I really don't want to get into an argument so can we just say we have differing opinions, and let the results sort out who's right ok? (And yes, I did post my thoughts a page back)

I dont think bourke can turn a rabble into a top contender.. but if he does.. well done on his behalf

also.. smelly will only add quikk runs to an orready quality line up.. salts can bat and oneill found form at the end of last season.. the thommy tigs will def be the smokey..

manifold.. st peters.. waurn ponds.. good sides and thomson will be up there for sure

Manifold

Waurn Ponds
Thomson

i still think a div1 rabble will be ok in div2.

salts is a quality div2 bat, o'neill wouldn't average above 20, never seen him make a run, very suprising to me that they made him a co-coach
not sure who else they have that bats, alot of kids that aren't quite up to it yet.

but smiljanic will win them 1 or 2 games off his own bat, just hope they don't expect massive quick hundreds every week from him.

yeah, shocking they got cammorotto coaching. why would they do that? its clearly going backwards and he would have to be the biggest mercenary in geelong cricket ever wouldn't he?

Spinners (or slow bowlers)
Tsitas
Stacey
Talarico
Kiddle
Armstrong
Fleet
Fanning (does he still bowl spin)

Who would take bags. Who features in the league wickets.. Only Tsitas and Talarico I think.
