The 2nd placed Allies make the trip all the way down south to Cold, wet Waverley to meet the 8th placed Magpies who are just a game out of the 5 and needing a win to keep in touch. This marks the first game that teams can pick their Traded players

SEM to select the pitch by 21:30 AEST Wednesday

Game to be played between Tuesday Night and 21:30 AEST Thursday Night, teams not in by then will remain unchanged and the team docked a point

ahhh i love the optimism Ricketts :p but sadly im off the same view as you.....we just cannot string two games together

no Pie4Life to pick from....silky smooth and wagstaff join the squad though....wagstaff will be struggling to make the XI, but Silky is right up there with a chance to debut straight away

busy at the moment, will contemplate a pitch and have it posted by tonight or tomorrow lunch time at the latest....sorry to the Allies if you come along to this thread and dont see a pitch

PS: gee ED, you could make Waverley sound a bit more appealing to the diehard fans.....we want some people to play in front off, not a bunch of seagulls picking through scraps :p

I hope I'm not playing in this game, I don't really enjoy one dayers & the last time we played SEM I cracked the sulks.

I'm revving myself up for the Test with KCC.

12th: beaver's army

Beavers rather stiff to miss, has been a solid contributor with the ball all season, but Silky has joined the squad and im keen to see how he goes.....line ball call between Woodstock and Beavers as to who made way, but Woodstock got the nod

the random pitch selection could throw up anything, im betting a normal pitch will come about though.....as mentioned, our one day formline is atrocious, and we won last match, so not at all confident of seeing us string two together

good luck Silky in your Magpies debut....and good luck team, good chance to measure ourselves against one of the higher ranked teams

Probably right about the normal pitch, just had some fun and did a random pitch game and it was a normal pitch, although 1 team fell 2 runs short chasing 340 on it so normal pitches can be fun

the lights going out and a near riot doesnt count as exciting? :p

that would be some game, nearly chasing down 340 on a normal pitch!!!

no worries Hilly

the random pitch wasnt to put the Allies out in anyway....more the fact we are very much a jekyl and hyde one day outfit, so the random pitch would suit us, as if even we dont know what type of pitch we are playing on, we cant get it into our heads that will either suck a lot, or blow you out of the water :p invariably, whatever we think, the opposite happens!

looking forward to it!

I might but I dont want to show the players I have in 1 team, lets just say Hodgey made a century and White 62 in Australias unsuccesful chase :)
