Matty Travis on a team sheet doesn't bat and doesn't bowl.
Interesting selection.

Didn't play - had to work. Entered the sides before the game so could live score, was still hopeful he'd arrive late but wasn't to be.
Isn't bowling this season either, just wants to slap around some balls mid order, punt on the races and sink some ice cold bevvies

Has there been a reshuffle of the lower grades?
Now looks like it only goes to LO6 with teams no longer listed and the program changed.

It sounds like you have a stutter when you say it out aloud. G Grade.

Adel Uni have 8 senior mens sides (4 in SACA and 4 in ATCA).
Goodwood have 8 in ATCA, plus then an over 50s side on Sundays, and something stupid like 18 junior teams through the various age groups.

Also Goodwood aren't sandbagging, their first 4 sides are in the highest divisions possible for them. 6 teams in 2 day comp and 2 in limited overs

Lightening, you have an extremely talented cricketer on your hands with that daughter of yours, also a cracking kid.
You should be very proud mate; you've done at least 1 thing right in life!

Not sure how you make these meetings compulsory
I need to be paid to attend after hours meetings at work
1 delegate per club should be suffice

Guess it must be getting pretty serious to want all the captains there.. but it is a little annoying lol
Also with delegates, maybe they're concerned the messages aren't getting back?

It's been a thing for years that the persons going to the meetings either don't pass the messages on or they vote for what they want and don't necessarily consult their clubs. Unfortunately the issues that arise just keep going around in circles every year and not sure how it will be fixed, but at least pdca are trying to get on to it early and not waiting till after Xmas.
