did you see it? I watched the beginning of the days play at Glandore before I had to play and it wasn't all that exciting. Cleary bowled well but didn't get a wicket while i was there. How did Chad Parrish bowl?

yeah i saw it.


Chad Parrish?

well, it was a batting deck, NOTHING in it for the bowlers at all. Chad bowled quite well for what he had available, kept trying all day. but no luck for him or any bowler for that matter. it was just the state of the game and pitch. simple as that. he didn't bowl badly though.
 
Cullen bowled 32 overs in a row yesterday and took 4 for 59. Took the new ball and almost won Adelaide the game outright. Played today as well in the XXXX Gold One Day Cup but I'm not sure how he went.
 
a couple of queries...
Why isn't ferguson getting looked at for a spot at the moment, remember watching him play and thinking he had something special, also, why are a few A grade teams not playing over the weekend, I didn't notice a prospect result in the paper at all??

Prospect had the bye. They played today though in the One Day cup. I have no idea what the result was.

Wasn't that bad in the end.

Feel for Borgas 3 ducks in a row and a dropped catch.

At least Captain Dudcock did something.

The team will actually look alright with Boof coming into the middle order:thumbsu:

Disagree it was antoher mental disintergration. We were 2 for 150 and cruising and got soundly beaten.

Terrible shot by Adcock and even worse shot by Borgas first ball. Cosgrove batted very well but lost concentration (even though unlucky to be given out). Our middle order then crumbled again.

A very poor performance really in a game we should have won.

Na disagree; Cosi was plum but agree with the rest that we are mentally weak with the bat in our hands.

And CS the standard of Grade cricket isnt the be all and end all but it really is pathetic and can't be helping our guys at all, especially the few that do have a decent attitude toward the game as well as talent.

Pathetic is a bit strong. It is true that there are less 27+ year olds staying around the grade scene (preferring to retire or to take the $ at a turf club and this is no different to any other state) but the quality of young cricketers coming through is as good as it has ever been. The problem is that once a player performs well in grade cricket and makes their first class debut they usually perform fine initially but it is in their second, third and fourth seasons of first class cricket that they're stagnating and going backwards. We've seen it with Ferguson, Plant, Cullen, Ben Cameron and perhaps now with Jason Borgas. That can't be grade cricket's fault.

When people see the Redbacks perform badly the blame typically shifts to Grade Cricket, which I think is misguided and an absolute cop out. I think they should really dig a little deeper for the reasons why.

Nether is anyone else in the SA side – that’s the point.

Changes need top be made and Ferguson should be given an opportunity

One thing Ferguson hasnt lacked is an opportunity. The guys been given two years in the team with little or no success. Hopefully he can find a bit of the spark he debuted with in his time out of the time, and come back a stronger player.

Oh I dont think its the only reason dont get me wrong, but pathetic is a word coming from guys who are playing grade cricket, not just my observation. Another problem is that the selectors jump at anyone who makes a hundred in grade cricket, or takes 5 wickets in a game. Now on the surface that might be how it is supposed to be done but they dont actually look at who the performance is against. I disagree with the number of good young cricketers in the system mind you. I think that there should only be 1 level of junior district cricket. Enough of this Red/White nonsense. Sure some kids wont get a game but itll teach them from an early age to fight for their spots and improve themselves.

Bullshit. Pitched something like a foot outside leg stump. That = automatic NOT OUT.
