Beer was announced at St Kilda a while back.Harwood played Big Bash whilst in his first season at Melton. The club was quite happy for him to play as long as he was available to play finals.
Well if the new club falls over which I hope dosnt no way will Kingston Saints reform and go back into subbies and even if they try to get up again there will be in a new reform league/comp , VTCA or DDCAStill amazed that KS have left Subbies and basically will cease to exist. Always a great club to play across the grades. Word is that no one really wants the new club to succeed so that the 3 NW subbies clubs will be able to move into Premier rather than making 2/3 decision. Hopefully if this happens the KS can re=establish and come back to Subbies . Looking at South the division has become even more competitive. KS replaced by Oakleigh. Moorabbin have announced a few and other power clubs have picked up recruits. I know another South club is pretty happy with recruits and will make announcements soon. Looks like Subbies is almost self dividing into divisions !! West looking very strong.
Couple of Poms, a Sri Lankan import, Few guys from Vic Premier system. Makes you wonder how they fit them in the two payed players limit. #speculationDoes anyone know anything about all these Moorabbin Recruits? Have heaps of signings on Twitter.

Nah they're all just wanting to play with mates...[/QUOT
Interesting to say the least: any early ladder predictions?
This is happening on Wednesday I believe and the Club recently agreed to apply to premier cricket so can't see them knocking back this opportunity.
On Thursday Hoppers Crossing will be in the subbies.

Well they voted for it
Its a good point you bring up. VSDCA might be well advised to check the terms of these players' "contracts"?Note in the article in Wyndham leader that Hoppers Crossing have no new recruits but all players from last season are " contracted". What does this mean ? VTCA has different eligibility regulations.

In the subbies they would enjoy the seasonal rotation concept. The lengthy dominance of the Yarraville Club C C in the VTCA's Senior Division cannot have been helpful for clubs participating in that division. The team player points cap of 39 can only go so far in evening out the competition for the practical reason that not all Senior Division clubs can afford to recruit the number of players to give rise to the salary cap for their senior team being a problem for them. That said, I still favour it to the subbies 2 paid player cap for, as shortnwide has pointed out, its lack of transparency means ''the brown paper bag'' is rife in the subbies. Due to the dividend having been phased out, I think now is an appropriate time for the subbies executive to revisit the appropiateness of its existing player payment cap.
In your earlier post you suggested CV has bought into Hoppers expression of interest. Are you in a position to provide more detail?
South Caulfield would be a strong addition to Subbies, good facilities and good junior program (they assure me)If Premier 20 goes ahead, do you think it would be a good move by the subbies to seek the replacement of the 2 clubs lost by asking South Caulfied and the Yarraville Club C C if they would be interested in transferring? They appear to be the dominant clubs of late in the VTCA's Senior Division. Would they be welcome additions in your view?
South Caulfield also only have 3 Saturday senior teams, Beaumaris & McKinnon have four Saturday teams, equally good facility's and even stronger junior set ups... Would have a case, especially Beauy with no subbies clubs around them..South Caulfield are strong are getting there 2nd ground upgraded with new turf table irrigation and drainage but are sharing 2nd ground with Carnegie atm so new arrangements will need to be made

Yarraville club would have some hurdles to climb, where would they play, what would they call themselves etc but they know how to win and they have the resources to enable them to be a strong club in a very short time. Hoppers are in the same boat and should be the first cab off the rank to replace Kingston Saints. If you're good enough to be short listed for Premier Cricket consideration, then you should be a walk up start for Subbies.
