Of course it will be hard, and I am far from being a finely tuned athlete, but we only play eleven games as it is, and have already had one round called off due to rain. My side has played at least 3 one dayers already.
Surely with some common sence, extra drinks etc. We can get through a days play. If somebody is struggling that bad, get them off the ground for 5 overs, have a cold shower or something? Get some kids down to sub field for a bit.
I don't know but surely calling the whole weekend off is a bit extreme.................
I am with you elpres 100% all the way, Bloody Fridge and Goochy and there fellow men play masses amount of games. We only play eleven, just because it is hot we want to call it off come on, when you play cricket in summer you know you will get a few hot days. Ok not 43 but 40 is close enough so take some harden the F*** up pills and get the job done, if everyone had the attitude of not wingeing and complaining just to rock up and get through it and move on.
Spare a thought for the fire fighters covered in those heavy and hot outfits they wear. Do they call it off when it gets to hot.

Fair dinkum beaver, you have just confirmed what the majority (the one's who matter) think about you on here being a complete tosser. Have you ever thought that fire fighters do what they do because it is HOT and because they want to do something good and MAYBE it's their job?? It has nothing to do with what attire they are wearing you knob. Fcuk me mate, I tell ya, if you had another brain it would be fcuken lonely. Serioulsy dickhead, think before you speak. I can't believe that you can put playing cricket and firefighting in the same sentence.
Lol your easy meat to fire up, so all the Fire fighters do it as a full time job and not one person is a volunteer then. I was pointing out that Cricketers are moaning because of the heat, but the FireF put there arses on the line and we are worried about a little bit of warm weather. And you and your Alias are in the group of people who matter hey, by the way who are these people can you back it up or just sprouting crap to support your argument or is it just the fact your wiener is the size of a tick tack and because of that you need to vent your frustration for your short coming in life.

I have it on good authority, that this weeks DDCA games will continue as per normal. With extreme heat conditions to come into play, ie extra drinks brakes & towels & drinks on Ice near the boundry etc.
Good result cricket will be the winner.
Good information Beaver. Stick to what you do best, talking drivel (although I suppose that's what your comment was!)
at least common sense prevailed and our game was cancelled. our D grade is playing and when i left there were already two players suffering badly on the sidelines. it's damn hot in pakenham and there is smoke from the bunyip/gembrook fires also.
Just had to get in touch with Goodsey as it looked like the flames were very close to his house. Hope everything is ok and I haven't panicked him unnecessarily.
stock standard Gooch , the weather gets like this then some fwit decides to head for the hills with a box of matches you can only hope they don't get out and hope the people we know in the areas are safe
