we any chance?

Bowdo was a gun junior cricketer and i have heard lids can ping em in. We are a big chance.

 

[TigerGlory]

Would like to see the two sides and who we have in the squad.

I think its Polak who took over the Wicketkeeper spot too.

 

[wez10000]

I went last year and it was a good day. J.Bowden was very good and Deledio hit 6s with easy.

 

[emperor]

Is Richo any good at cricket? Would be great to see the big fella charging in off an long angled rund ala Mervyn Hughes

 

[AGRESSION]

Is there anywhere they might have the playing lists ?

 

[froars]

I've been nearly every year - highly recommend as a day out!

 

[AGRESSION]

Ill be there.
Anyone been to G.R. Bricker Reserve, Moorabbin are there any spots with a bit of shade to have a snag and a couple of coldies under.
Funnily enough ive probably played there before.

Where the players sit is a shaded area, there's beer and that on sale and sausages and hamburgers and stuff.

The proceeds of the day used to go to his family, but I'm not sure if it still does.

I am planning on going this saturday but can someone answer my questions please.
Entrance is by gold coin donation? What does that mean.
Also what time does it finish?
Also is there plenty of the other Richmond boys there that are not playing and can you get autographs for youngsters?
Cheers would be much appreciated.

Might want to go on the Sunday, better chance of getting some autographs.

 

[Tambling_30]

I thought it was only on Saturday as it says in the article. Can you confirm it and answer the other questions i had. cheers.

Its definately on the Sunday mate. it starts at 1pm and will probably go for a couple of hours at least. The gold coin donation can either be 1 or 2 dollars, the money going to the save the tigers foundation(not save our skin). Not to sure on the autograph thing but dare say the boys will be more than willing to sign a few on the day.

You are right it is on the sunday. cheers for that.

 

[game on]

The day is orgainised by the Omega Cricket Club and has been running for about 5 years.

You can pay $30 and get 4 hours of beer, wine, softdrink and a BBQ feed. Plus a ticket into draw to win $2000. Otherwise you can just sit and enjoy the days cricket.

A great day for kids of all ages. I would suggest to bring your own chairs.

Usually not all the players attend, only the guys who are playing in the game. But they are always signing stuff on the day.

They usually only get a side together on the morning of the day, so I would persume that sides have not been finalised.

It will finish around 4 30 - 5 i'd say.

 

[Yellowandblack10]

i hope we're a bit better at the cricket this year than the footy

 

[RichosGuns]

From what I can gather a few of the tiger blokes who will be playing will include:

Joel Bowden (Captain)
Adam Pattison
Angus Graham
Daniel Jackson
Brett Deledio
Dean Polo
Graham Polak
Andrew Collins
Luke McGuane

I'm not sure about the last couple of blokes, but I think most of these guys will make up the side
