My point is how do you know who will walk through the door at any club?
But i guess it is just your opinion so i can leave it at that, what makes you so certain Dandy West can make a successful leap? my understanding from what i have been told is most clubs come up and fall down very quickly?
You have appeared to jump on the back of one club who is been promoted and saying that other clubs who have been promoted or have been sitting in T1 for a while will be no good.
Granted the well recongnised clubs will be at the for front of the action but even the lesser likes can have there time in the sun??
I think DWCC can do what some others have styruggled to do in recent years. Place themselves in amongst the strong clubs straight away. They have done it before. I can recall the past and the clever recruiting that they did back then. Throw in G-Train if he is offered the job (which i suspect) he will be and add a touch of officer into the batting (M. Torney) and they have the right mix. Peter Lindsay and Neil Evans still involved down there? If so, even from a distance they will make sure that DWCC are a contender.
Other clubs may have people walk through the door but most unlikely. They usually dont get to those clubs door because the berwick, SSCC, bUCKLEY, Hallam etc..snap them up. Perfect example in Fridge.. The saints were in discussions with him but because they took to long in making a decision I believe berwick were approached and from what I heard, they made a decison within a day and a deal was done.
Spot on there with regard to The Saints and Fridge, Legal Aid. They are still rueing the one that got away there I reckon...
I'm not Legal Aid but i would be very interested to know who it is, seems to know quite a bit about both competitions, a lot about Beacy and most of all speaks a lot of sense!
He also goes by the name of legal aid too, hmmmm.....i wonder if it's the bloke who i was speaking to about this website only a week or so ago....
Narre..one hit wonders. Made it up on the back of a slip up from Cranny that year. Since then they have struggled and if not for the fact that some of the other clubs are worse off, they would be back in T2 rebuilding.
Keys...say no more.
Saints..great club, great history, geat long serving players and people from within (Cashmans etc) but just are not up to it.
Mordy...bullied the poor T2 sides last season and won it on the back of 1-2 players.. Gee havent they set a great example on and off the field this year...
My thoughts, coments and experience comes from being a cricket lover, reader and participant. Have intimate knowledge on cricket within the Premier ranks as well as DDCA, WGCA, Box Hill Reporter and SUBBIES.
Is that ok?
No it is not, your knowledge of Mordi only extends for what 2 seasons is that correct???
Narre are on the improve and probably harvest the most potential of young talent in T1 from what i sore this year.........they will improve and rise imo
But your 1st post was you saying basically who will hold up the ladder down the bottom, when you have no idea which clubs have landed big recruits or lost players.
Put it this way, If Narre hypothetically recruit Warren Ayres, Wendell Perumal & a gun ex district bowler would you still think they would finish bottom 4???
If Narre pick up those guys they will be ace but they wont. So it doesnt matter. Only the strong, smart clubs pick up the Waren Ayres type players. Not the Narre type clubs.
Tru, My Mordy assessment is based on 2 years. I will be happy to eat humble pie if Im wrong and will you if Im right?
Great young kids is the same excuse cranny have been running with? Hows that working for them? Not great hey..
Legal Aid just wondering what you mean by the Narre type of clubs.

I think that's true but I understand from my saintly friends that year one of your venture into the DDCA, you were being represented by DDCA stalwart Steve Chapman in relation to finding a club to play at. I imagine he was doing or the moving and shaking on your behalf and then he would usually bill the sucessful club and or pommie player who he puts the deal together for.

The Narre type clubs I refer to are the ones who linger in the bottom section of the ladder each season. There is nothing wrong with that whilst they are developing their own players from within. I just suspect that the 'big clubs' seem to want results now and dont worry too much about tomorrow.

Fair call there legal aid. How would suggest a club like narre who are not a cashed up club like someothers improve and head up the ladder

Appoint a Captain Coach who is mid-late 20s, who has experience and respect from within their existing competition who is eager to accept the challenge. Must be someone who has experienced the taste of success that way they will be hungry to experience it over and over again. Identify 1-2 senior, well experienced cricketers from within the City of Casey who might be a little flat, bored with their current set up who would be eager to take up the challenge of working alongside a young CC. Develop the youth within the club. Cranny have had it spot on with the original set up with Ross. What they need to do now is move past him, (still retaining him as a player) and look for the next replacement. Surely a club like Narre can find $6k for a CC and that CC can choose to use the coin as he sees fit. (some for himself and perhaps a bit for someone else). I think they have 15 plus junior sides with direct access to 200 plus adults. The right committee in place would welcome the junior club into the senior club with open arms. GUARANTEE there would be money sitting there within Narre families who would be more than happy to assist the growth of the senior side(s).
But what are they doing wrong at the start of this year narre were written off and resigned by most to be relegated after losing most of their senior side. What they achieved this year should be applauded. They stuck with a youth policy and blooded their good juniors and still managed to stay in T1 they even managed to knock off a "Powerhouse" club along the way Someone once told me while it is hard to get to T1 its harder to stay in T1

Didn't they finish on 18 points (3 wins?) Still celebrating are they?

Didn't the team you coached this year also only win 3 games this season justin???? And from even more games than Narre play?? Lol, no wonder you wanted to hide your identity. You just look so stupid now. So legal aid ...Case closed.

Not relevent. I was referring to powerhouse clubs vs others. My definition of a powerhouse club is continuous premiership success, finals appearances and in some cases being prepared to bite the bullet and lash out in relation to signing recruits. My club had a disgusting year and thats no secret. Regardless of the results in the past 2 seasons, the club is still a powerhouse within its league. On that explanation Im happy if you wish to correct my comments in relation to narre, keys, saints, coomoora if I am wrong. But on my comments-beliefs, I didnt think anyone would refer to them as a powerhouse based on my definition.
