Rob Condy - Manifold
Adam Marsland - City
Jeremy Babb - South Barwon
Sean O'Neill - Thomson
Mitchell Herbison - Barwon Heads
Mitch Troy - North Geelong/Shore
Becker Nguyen - East Belmont
Mark Hanley - East Belmont
James Bottomley - Newtown
Dean Riches - Thomson
Troy Nolan - St Joeys
i understand i have probably missed alot of people but anyone feel free to throw some names up of the best u25s going around, and do you think the GCA Country Week team would play a warm up match against a best u25s side? I understand they would probably win easy, especially if they get there best team on the park but it would be good for the young guys to have a go!
Thoughts on the idea guys?

if you live so close to city you should come past one saturday arvo in summer and score for us we need a new nuffy, the last one has gone to stalbans to play in there 1s.
gca_ipl;227828 said:ok, at least it is a list, but it is tough to pick the young guys as alot of these guys are either in division 2 or play 2nd's in division one. From your list I would definetly be taking:
- Marsland
- Hanley (wk-capt) - this guy is very smart and a great kid
- Becker
- Condy
- Babbs but he would drink any of the over 25 team under the table
- S O'Neil
I have not seen much of the rest but Mitch Troy would probably make the side. Others to consider would be Fitzgerald and Hodgson from Joeys. The youngest Lymer from North Geelong. That Jaik Michelberg from Newtown if he is coming over again. Foorde and that tear away quick (Moreland) from BPH, now they reckon he has potential. He also looks like Corey Worthington, so that must count for something !!
Overall the over 25's would smash this team if they tried, but you know the young guns would be trying their arses off to beat the older guys so it would make for an interesting spectacle.
Babies Arm;227748 said:dunno, cant help ya on that one haha. from what i hear, what little he gets he puts back double.
Smokin Joe;227833 said:Well i reckon he is massively underused/underrated by someone there at West. I would rate him better than Marsland. Heavy ball, awkward bounce, i felt Marlsand was pretty straight up and down! Quick though, and ultra competitive!
Babies Arm;227753 said:1. G.Kelson. (great opener)
2. B.Smiljanic (hitting power)
3. G.Talarico (class)
4. B.Hauenstein (best in league)(c)
5. S.Loftus (workhorse)
6. D.Hughes (good allrounder)
7. M.Kelson (w/k)
8. C.Bambury (************)
9. T.Agg (left arm...wkt taker)
10. B.Tsitas (only spinner... prem capt)
11. G.Harper (pace line and length)
Stiff not to make it would be B.Allen and last years torquay pommie.
this team is subject to change.
clearing pickets;227835 said:sorry Joe who is the west player? Glen Talarico or Josh Vborvski?
wouldn't fancy marsland on a deck with a bit of pace, could be a handful but i do agree he is somewhat unproven, but is young so will take time to prove himself.
gca_ipl;227837 said:interesting post by Cricket Guru on the Ballarat thread. hmmm, could be a smoke screen. Any takers on who they are ?

clearing pickets;227750 said:na didn't happen to play in the granny mate, was a good effort by south to knock east belmont off in the semi... don't think anyone expected that.
east belmont have so much depth, surely the envy of all other clubs in the region?
clearing pickets;227733 said:you scoring a run over there?
heard you've been doing alright off field

he shouldn't have been sitting on his bat at the non strikers end, was an easy single there haha
Smokin Joe;227754 said:Decent side that!
gca_ipl;227814 said:ok, have to be:
- G Kelson
- Smellie
- G Talarico
- C Bambury
- The Hornet (c)
- A Clark
- M Kelson (wk)
- D Hughes
- B Anderton
- B Tsitas (vc)
- A Marsland
- Fergie (12th)
Would be a long list of unlucky players which could actually come into the line-up depending on how their season goes. The two joeys pick-ups in Morgan and Fanning are unknown at GCA level, and also the Chapelley pick-up at West. Looking at all the players we have available in the league, seriously, imagine the damage these sides could do at full strength. And not the 70 blokes they went through last country week carnival.
clearing pickets;227756 said:good effort, would have Anderton in before Agg
Cricket_Guru;227816 said:Clearing pickets u do seem to know ya stuff mate.
Yes east are a great club and have alot of great people behind the club, and it took a club like south barwon to show that u can recruit and build from the bottom without paying players. As in east belmont have never payed players and never will. you say you play Gca and you must be an ok cricketer. I have won 2 GCA DIV 1 flags at east.
gca_ipl;227820 said:Josh Vrbovski or something like that. Based on the overs that Talarico bowled last season for West I reckon that he was totally wasted. Would need to bowl more overs for him to be an option. I suppose Rhys Zannoi would be an option from Leopold if he was switched on.

Me and a mate may be looking for a new club guys.
GCA Div 1 cricketers who have won flags and league awards. Looking for change and seeing whats out there.
Leave your name and number and ill get to you and can talk turkey. If interested will conduct meeting in Geelong."
hmmm very interesting indeed

right arm medium;227893 said:Any punts on who this is?
Leigh Allen was rumoured to be playing at Drysdale but been told this is not the case, and he is staying put.
Peter Quick is coaching/captaining
Other guys that were part of the back to back
Drew Allen
Grant Dew
Timberlake
My money would be on Leigh Allen or Grant Dew. But has Dew won any league awards?
