Oh Gday Laurie, There has been alot of talk around the VTCA traps about the amazing debut of Rowan Bricker, with some dubbing him the next Bradman. Can you tell us anything about his deevelopement into a gun VTCA Cericketer?

He is an absolute spud.

Pull shot to midwicket in air.

next ball same thing.

Move a fielder there and he hits it down his throat.

One of the most stupid bits of batting I've seen.

Re: VTCA Thread

Gee Senior Division is close. It's great to see six team so close. Think South Caulfield are still right in the race, only a couple of points out, Ash will come good. Not sure if McKinnon are a genuine threat, Hall will need to continue in his rich vein of form to be any chance. RPB look a batsman short to threaten the flag. Don't think anyone is writing off Keilor as a real chance. Also six teams in contention for relegation, could be any of them, Altona looking most likely.

Senior A is not so close, it's going to be tough for someone outside the four to sneak in. Still plenty of cricket to be played though. Stand by my comments about Brighton, they're the only side that could slip out. Apologise about St Bernards, they look the real deal. Still think Strathmore will come good, I've heard Tupper is a problem for them, it's always trouble when your pro's got an attitude. MHSOB look certain for relegation.

So cashman are you calling a Y/C v A/West GF? Think you will find Sth Caul could struggle as it looks like Ash could be out with a knee for a while. Will hurt them badly. RPB seem to have the batting depth this year with Maurice Contessa and Hillas as well as a few other guys chipping in. Keilor rely on Porter, but if guys chip in with 100's like Dixon did on the weekend then anything could happen. Jodie a very handy bowler.

I think its too hard to call - and even come finals time, i feel any of these sides could win on the day.

Fair synopsis Cash Man. I reckon RPB and APW are still the main contenders, then the usual suspects apart from Doutta. Reckon SC could be a huge danger and finally win back some credibility for the South, can hear Gary Mac getting excited now just thinking about it, although it will be countered by Bentleigh getting relegated.

Tupper's attitude has always been there so why is it affecting them now. St Bernards are definitely a massive threat, although they might be a bat short. Hoppers still look the favourites, agree with the Brighton comment. Had a look at the fixture, not convinced MHSOB are certainties for relegation. Apart from Hoppers in a 1 dayer and Brighton, they play all the other teams in the bottom half from now on, 4 games that are potentially winnable. Had thought Druids would be a finals contender, but going for 400 doesn't look too flash. Reckon Brighton will play finals and get rolled by Hoppers, CY's to beat St Bernards and a decent GF.

It's a tough call but yes at this early stage. APW look certain grand finalists to me. YCCC have so much batting fire power and the best fast bowler in the comp, it's hard to see them as anything but genuine premiership contenders. Keilor definately in the mix though. I've heard Ash's knee is fine, just don't think Sth Caulfield have the cattle, will always be competitive though.

I'm still not convinced with A/West. Brown has had a great start, Magafas been going well with the bat too. Taylor and Jones only 100 runs from 6 hits, and Jan 73 from 6. Taylor also only taken 4 wickets for the year! Are too many guys down there just with their hand out, or do they actually care?? This will be their downfall!

IMO, I think that stats sometimes dont tell the full story. Just because these blokes mentioned may not have the runs/wickets, it just shows to me that they are still winning with room for improvement!! Shared workload is always an advantage to a side. Having said all that, $$ doesn't always bring reward!! A team has to gel well and be prepared to work as a unit in order for success!! Right down to the 11th player selected.

They are all quality players though X, they'll come good come the business end of the season.

Speaking of the draw, Maccabi lovers could be in for a taste of humble pie - Hoppers, Willy, Brighton, St Bernards in the next four rounds!! We'll know soon enough if they can walk the walk as well as they talk the talk.

A Hoppers v CY's in GF would be a decent game - the last 5 years have been fairly one sided (Spotswood v Hoppers may be the exception). CYs beat St Bernards and Hoppers beat Brighton in the semis and they play off in the GF. Poorly worded first time around.

Reckon after that stretch we might not be hearing too much from Laurie or his little mate who tells the truth.

My apologies, that does make sense. Willy will finish on top though, look the team to beat for me. Danny Law's not getting much coverage here, the big West Indian looks like the recruit of the season.

Sth Caulfield have a good run now, don't play a side in the top 6 til Round 9. Should be right up near the top after that strech.

Agree with a lot of that but with Mullaney hitting some top form in the T20 games, I think he's on the verge of a very big score this week. Agreed they need more runs from Moose, Ash if he is fit and a couple of other blokes in the middle order. When was the last time someone other than Ash or Simpson last year scored a ton?

Just had a look in the last round to see if there would be any beauties. It doesn't get much better than this....APW v Keilor Round 11. Sth Caulfield have Youlden (may need to win outright or get big bonus points), Yarraville have Hampton and RPB play McKinnon.
