Be interesting to see if any of the Senior Div clubs got covers down early as showers around at the moment in the suburbs

What’s the go with play this weekend hearing lots of grounds still unavailable
Yep hearing that as well,might be some ground reshuffling to get games going. Possibly Sunday games for lower grades rather than on Saturday .Hopefully any changes to fixtures are made early so team selections can take in to consideration player availability on Sunday

 

[George56]

Sunday’s are becoming harder with more clubs having female sides which play Sunday’s. There’s not as many free grounds as there once was.

Looks like some games decided to use it even though no mention in rule book that its to be applied in our comp. Will be interesting how results will be applied.

That's because the president of the competition who's listed as the rules contact on the Match and Admin Policy when contacted by umpires advised them that was the rule. It's a disgrace and he should resign he's position immediately can't he read?

 

[Mankad]

I’m hearing the vtca is thinking about calling all matches for the round draws or replaying the matches on the reserve day.

The reserve day is already full with round 1 games senior division is not involved in this issue as far as I'm aware

Senior matches were all draws anyway.

North and West divisions round 1 games were 2 day fixtures which reverted to one day games so the reserve day is available as far as I know.

Sorry you may be correct.

 

[Declaration Bowler]

Sorry you may be correct.

You should have rung the president and checked.

I'd be none the wiser that's for sure.
