Haha yeah, he is having a bad run to start the season. But I think I have seen enough bats to know when someone can hold the stick, and he definately can.

Re: VTCA Thread
Doesn't look promising, but then again it looked the same way last week and everyone got on fine. I reckon we'll be right, might be some under prepared decks though (and one 25 yard one).

Re: VTCA Thread
Yeah, although I'm sure no club would intentially under prepare their wicket to given them an unfair advantage... you probably wouldn't want to be playing away and chasing on the weekend.

Re: VTCA Thread
When we took over from the Council for our No.1 ground a couple of seasons back, they provided their roller as part of the deal, though we had already purchased our own Mentay ride on about 7 years earlier, which cost us about $20k at the time. It was a huge investment at the time, however the benefit it has provided has been substantial and was still going strong until vandals burnt down the curators shed at the start of the season.
It worked out well though as everything was insured so a new ride on roller, three new mowers, all new covers and a new bowling machine were the outcome... well worth the significant inconvenience these pests caused.
So to answer your question, yes, the club owns and maintains all the equipment.

Re: VTCA Thread
I know the club is pushing Council hard to extend the recycled water pipeline up to our ground to service both ovals, however, they are getting push back as they want the club (and football club) to move up the road to a new "Casey Fields" style multi-oval site near the old RAAF base.
Not sure how this will play out, however, I think they will have to do something in the short term as the outfield (and surrounds) are a disgrace. Not safe for kids too, as my wife and young son found out last week watching me. With all the wind, the dust that was being produced was unbearable for players and spectators alike.

Re: VTCA Thread
hahahaha, surely the committee would put a bonus clause in for cone placement?
From a Hoppers perspective, Shane McEachran and Trent Said are two of the best blokes you are ever likely to meet. Always hang around for a beer well into the night, are happy to socially interact with all players from 1sts to 7ths, are very hard trainers and are very helpful with the kids.

Re: VTCA Thread
Slow day in the office...
Senior:
OEG will be all over South Caulfield
Hampton will just avoid outright
Spotswood should hold off Doutta
RPB on that small ground should do enough, although should be a cracker
Baker gone, Keilor should win
Last one could go either way, but would rather have runs on the board and 7 wickets to get instead of 140 to chase
Senior A:
Hoppers will chase down the 212 pretty comfortably, particularly without Tillakaratne
Strathmore should keep the Snowdogs at bay, all depends on Osborne
MHSOB should bring up their first win over Chelt, 140 to chase
Druids to get over the top of Beauey, did let them off the hook, probably should have already won the game by now
CY's will do an number of Bentleigh outright, can't see anyone being too disappointed with that
Get ready Laurie... here it comes... Ajax will bundle United out fairly cheaply, although if Billy Blair can find a partnership somewhere they might go close.
No danger of a washout by the looks of it at the moment.
