just a question and your opinion what would the margin be between turf and a matting game

If your talking A Turf vs A Mats premiers, then St Andrews would flog RMIT. Im not trying to belittle RMIT, or A Mats, but the result would be pretty one sided.

Just in St Andrews side is prob the best bat in this comp over the last 10 years in Dave Jolley, Gav Tapner who has won 3 A Turf b&f's, and a quality bowling line up of, Tapner, Wernham, Newton and co.

Well said MMVCA, i have played both A mats and A turf in this comp in the last 4 years and yes you are right joe, barkly street came from A mats and had 1 good season but now are finding it hard to win games consistently, there would be no side in the A mats lats year that would be able to come up and finish in the top 7 next year the jump from B turf to A Turf is big but from A mats to A turf is to big for any club

Well I was part of this whole process at Barkly Street so I'll give an honest assessment.
The main reason we have struggled since our first turf season is that we lost a heap of players in one single off-season.
There was a difference between grades, I found turf alot easier for what its worth. Certainly from a form perspective personally. Simply because I found the competition much harder and it actually motivates me to concentrate alot more, because I am a competitor. I found that in matting, I kept getting myself out because I thought "No way this guy can get me out...", and maybe that's sad but thats the way I was and still am.
But in actual quality, most turf sides would win against the best from the mats.

As much as people want to bag Brett, i think he has done a pretty good job, especially since the passing of Allan Oakmen.
