Re: North A & B
I hope for the players sake he gets it right, he's a good kid and I think the previous powers that held sway were happy for it to continue. I spoke to Rick Hudson about it and he told me that while there was a big question mark in his mind then he would not bowl. Great stance taken and I think it may have really hit home for SB. I know when he did some work on his action that he came back with the perfect action but lost the thing that made him a factor and that was his pace. He didn't get the new ball so maybe he's still coming to grips with the changes? Plenty of blokes who have played cricket and lost a yard have worked hard on oving the ball around in the air and off the deck and have been really good bowlers. Any feedback on how the teams are finding Flemington's new ground, for a ground that is small there aren't too many huge scores. I'm still shaking my head about the Aber Park disaster, that's all I can call it, North B is tight and 4 points may be the difference between a home final or heading out to unfimilar territory. I see Kingsville have been struggling in the churches, my friend Khawa has done nothing so far which is disappointing as he is a gun and a gun bloke to go with it. I look forward to this weeks games A'Park won't get it their own way at Crazyburn. MV vs WC should be cracker and Adrich shouldn't be far away. Jacana to paste HC and Flemington to probably do it easy against Seabrook.
Snagglepuss;280838 said:Guru-the Miller situation -they would have hoped they could bat the first day especially at AP, and then have him to bowl the 2nd week. Obviously didnt work out that way but probably more due to poor batting than anything Im guessing. But I totally agree on the declaring by AP. Why would they have not got Seabrook back in b4 the end of Day 1 to have a few overs at them. Big mistake that one by Albers as they never needed 250 in front.
Jacana-full credit to them as they just keep rolling on. Nothing spectacular about them, tehir bowling is honest, batting less so but they keep getting the job done. Interesting to not a certain controversial player returned to their 2nds last game and returned to the bowling crease. I wonder if all the question marks over his action can now be put to bed??? Only time will tell.........
See it looks like Craigieburn choked too. They had Flemington 8-121 chasing 223 and Flem still got up. Small ground I suppose but still.......
And how ridiculous is it that we could have a situation where teams (MV & HC) send their 1's &2's to the wrong ground? That was ridiculous but given the 234 versions of the draw there has been, no wonder it happended!
