Sorry but i believe i was mistaken, and the grade i think we have been offered is turf B2 and we will probably have our twos in the composite and a couple of matting grades. Depending on how many matting grades there is we may have to have some in WSUCCA if its still around. As for leigh Edwards he is signed for at least another year as captain coach and is doing a fantastic job so at this stage i could nto see him leaving South. I reckon he will be keen to take up the challege awaiting us. Dont get me wrong but if we had our own turf wicket my opinion and mine alone we would be better to go into VTCA as more teams could play Turf but we havent and the Willi comp is the best option for us and if we eventually get our own wicket maybe by then we may have worked our way up the grades in the willi comp but ther are a lot of good sides in the top 2 grades so i think we are looking at a few years before we see any type of movement up the grades. and these are just my opinons as i am just a player have no real decision making attributes, thats the committes job, they decide whats best for the club with consultation and input from the players.
StAndrewsman;388741 said:First off, I am not trying to enter the discussion on how good VTCA is or how good Willy Comp. Id just like to say this to all melton south players reading this. The only reason that you think that C COMPOSITE is a step up for you is that you have refused to play any higher than the lowest you can. I know you will try and comment on how you dont have turf ground etc. I know the teams playing in C COMPOSITE and the players in these team and I will gladly say that it wont be a step up. I think playing against 15-17 year old kids and playing against some team's thirds is not a step up for your club at all. I have played that level years ago and the standard wasnt the best, not for your 1s to be in, and speaking to a few people, the standard has dropped more. I dont know many of you at Melton South but Leigh Edwards if you are reading this, go somewhere higher. You will be wasting away down there. Our club is happy to have you, as I am sure most others will.
again I say Im not bagging the Willy comp, and you guys might attack the B section in VTCA or my club if you want, just putting my view across.
