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

Surely if Geelong was having an u/25's Baars, Sam Hall, Kenny Spence, J Moore, Yelland, B Alan would be picked?

Don't forget that the assessment isn't just based on Club Championship. GSM did well to make the final last year however. I believe they have no juniors and took a very long time to decide what they were doing with their ground re: water tanks; that would have counted against them also. No junior program however would see them under the pump. Like many clubs before them, they should see the demotion as an opportunity to review their club operations and work hard.

Hows the rock u been hiding under freddi?!!
Allen wont be playing with east this year- will play in melbourne.
Moore didnt play last year (apart from a short stint in England).
Spence has always had talent but is about the most overrated bat in the comp.

Yes Bourke, Ferguson, Smiljanic... who will score the most runs.

The weird thing is, they will all probably take alot of wickets aswell :D

Don't forget Adam Gaylard either. And don't write off St Peters. They had a solid season last year and were dissapointed by their loss in the semi. Had four players score over 350 last year and one of their better bats in Clay Nelson had a bad year. Thomson and Mano I think will take the headlines but St Peters could well slip under some guards.[/QUOTE]

haha on eastern park no. 2, they scored 700 didn't they.
wouldn't read to much into there figures, gaylard scored 200 in that game.
like playing on a postage stamp, what a joke that was.

Clay Nelson's main role is to sledge the opposition, and even then he is a battler.

good to see he is in the "team of good blokes" ;)

shark bite you are one of the only people who makes any sense on this forum...is it just me or is it just some members of a certain hard wicket club writing the crap on here??

Nic Jarvis apparently is in good condition and by all reports will be a good chance to follow on from last years good form.

Gaylard score about 150 in that game and over 500 for the season. 500-150 = 350. I think you are referring to Tim Hester, who did score 200 in the game. The two clubs played there because they had two. Both clubs had no ground.
Clay Nelson had a bad year last year; season before he made 360 and is always in the top four or 5 in league bowling ave.

Aside from the small ground at College which was a once off; Murgheboluc use one every week for their lower grades. What a disgrace that is. Like playing in your back yard.

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

How clubs will go this year

East Belmont - Are strong every year but dont reward their kids. Should finish in the top 5.
Geelong West - My flag favourites. Have recruited well and will finish in the top 5. Some good kids comming through.
Grovedale - Havnt heard much about them, if its anything like it was last year then it will be there come feb/march. Who will replace harper?
Bell Post Hill - On the stage of rebuilding. Some bright kids comming through, although they wont play finals.
Lara - Pending on work for Danny Hughes, if he plays they will be a solid finals contendor. Without him they could struggle.
Leopold - "Pold" have kept their cards very close to them. Has anybody heard anything about them? going on last season they were very competive.
Newcomb & District - Had high hopes for this club with stars like; koliba,babbs,farnsworth. They have done very little in the GCA. Could this season be the one? Wont play finals.
Newtown - Always a suprise packet. Alot of gun kids comming through. Although they wont make finals.
South Barwon - They are the real deal. A tremendous first 11 side. goes right through the powerful club. Top 3 finish im judging.
St Joseph's - Have picked up geelong champion, Daniel Fanning. Are on the verge of a big season. if they make finals they could do some serious damage.

Please add to this as I'm a keen follower of the GCA.

Not sure what the runs tally was last year for Jarvis. However he struggled the previous year...then got half fit before last season and that really made a difference and this year i have heard he is fitter again so you would suggest he would be on track to do alright...time will tell i suppose. Like what was mentioned in previous posts he will have to perform if City are to go ok!!
 
Re: Geelong Cricket '08/'09(gca/bpca)

at north we've gained millard as coach and a bloke from the bush who apparently played essendon 2s in the vca. not sure how good he is atm but we havent trained yet so i guess time will tell. younger guys are all a year older and expect a big year from sam hall, turning all his forty fiftys and sixtys into 80s 90s and 100s.
on the downside weve lost mitch troy and ash mclean to north shore, and nobodys 100% sure on wat scownys doing yet

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

Ok just for all us blokes who are effing well over the St Albans Vs City and the rest of the world talk-- lets summarise it all so that we can put an end to it once and for all.
* St Albans are one of the best sides in Geelong and would demolish any GCA 2 side.
* For proof- They flog Thomson (thats for u Rissole) in practise matches.
* Supersaint Johnny, Addy, and Murray will make 8,000 runs between them for the season, whilst Murray earns his $130,000 salary by taking a record 33 wickets for the saints..
*City will win the Div 1 granny this year cuz Jarvis will be fit and ave 95+, whilst Kent will take 130 wickets at 4.

St Albans are the best and hate city boys....and thomson and most other blokes.
City are the best and hate saints boys...and thomson and most other blokes.

End of story. U both are dead set certainties. Lets move on to something interesting.

im pretty sure st albans and thomson have a pretty good relationship so thats wrong, dont get hate mixed up with rivalry.

i never use 2 hate city 2 this shark bite popped up.

and im st albans obviously and no1 has said that we are certainties at all.

i agree im over talking about us but if people keep bagging us im going to defend us sorry if u don't like it but thats how it is.

it doesn't go on just 1st team performance...a club must have a good junior structure, strong committee and admin side of things and also ground and facilities has a bearing, obviously these things were lacking...if they are good enough they will rectify these things and be back up in the near future.

Scott Lindsay will make consistant runs and is a complete batsman. Millard does an amazing job for the natural talent he was given but has a very limited game. Millard will not make runs if you know where to bowl to him.

Travis Agg will be the loss of the season. Marsland is a talent, but what else do they have in the bowling stocks? Crellin has to be done. Kent Agg is honest but not front line.

Because they had their Major Raffle Day on the Sunday to help raise funds to pay for their installation of water tanks. Don't forget that GSM themselves made over 300.
