2 PRESIDENTS REPORT
As I commence on my final President Report I look back over my past six years in the top role with some very gratifying experiences. I would like to think we have come forward as a club over my time but it would be wrong to say we do not have some hurdles to over come to continue to develop to a better place than currently.
The support shown to me over my time has been great and I look forward to the next generation taking over the running and continue to develop it even further.
I look back over the six years and look at the improved facilities through the nets, ground and club rooms and are happy where we have come. That said there is still work to go on finishing the net run ups, the netting to stop balls going over the fence, a new pitch for the Heights and hopefully with support from the council the synthetic grass around the pitch.
I would like to acknowledge the work of club coach Darren Bersey who like me is stepping down after three seasons. During his coaching stint we have had one of the most successful periods with our top side. He wears his heart on his sleeve at times but you certainly know that he only wants what is best for the club and his players. He has been ably supported by Lincoln Grigg and together they made what I believe is the best coaching duo in the RDCA. Linc is continuing and I wish him all the best for the future and the structure put in place.
I have had many great committee members during my time and I thank each one of them for putting their time to improve the club. I am glad the current Secretary, Treasurer and Junior Co-Ordinator are continuing and I am sure they will be a huge assistant to the new President like they were to me.
Thankyou to Bernie Stock who puts in many hours behind the bar and was very happy for Bernie to be acknowledged with the Geoff Darcy club person of the season award, it was thoroughly deserved.
I would also like to acknowledge the retirement of our longest serving player Ian Stewart after a club record 434 games. Ian played in basically every team during his career and won an unbelievable 15 batting awards during his time. Off the ground he worked just as hard holding down the posts of President, Secretary and Treasurer at different times. It is hoped we may be able to twist his arm for a game or two of veteran cricket for the next few seasons.
On the subject of veterans it was great to have the club represented again in this competition and with thanks to all players who played for the season going down in the grand final. The team was ably led by Colin Reyment and we look forward to going one better next season and hopefully grow to two teams.
The junior program has really developed again under Matt Marsh with able support from Di Wool among others. This is the most important area of the club as we develop the future from the youngest members. The Milo program was again run by Shane Donovan with numbers growing very well to over the 30 mark. Well done Matt and Shane.
We had a couple of good social events with the Xmas party and shuffle nights being well run. Thanks to the juniors for the Xmas night and Daniel Dima on the shuffle night. It is an area where the club can gain some further ground by having more well run events during the season.
The finances were again controlled by Adam Brush and as always he made a difficult job look easy. He is a great asset to the club and hopefully he will be counting the coin for a few seasons yet. Andrew McDonald took on the role as Secretary and in his first season did really well. I am sure Quack will continue to grow in the role under the new leadership. Thanks to the other members of the committee that supported me where possible.
I would like to also thank Rorie and Katherine Meredith for making their house available for our Pommy recruit, as always they go above and beyond with their support.
Besides Linc and myself the 3rds and 4ths were captained by Quack and Wayne Pollard, thankyou for your work in sometimes difficult situations.
On field we again made the first eleven finals but really couldn’t get it together most of the season with the bat and fell away in the semi final and could not defend our premiership. The 3rds also made the fianls but also couldn’t get it together with the bat and lost the first final. It was a tough year for the 2’s and 4’s but there were many kids given an opportunity to play and that should be good for the future.
2 It was great to see two first time winners for the big individual awards, Matt Whittaker taking home the club championship with Darren Wardley after a lazy 10 year break from the game claiming the Lindsay Trollope. Congrats to the other winners also.
In closing I wish the new President, Shane Kelton, all the best for his time in the position. He has already been able to get some new faces involved on the committee and looks like a very exciting time for the club. Give Shane and his team all the support you can and we will see the numbers increase and the buzz around the club back to where it was a few seasons ago.
As always I would like to thank my family for their support over this journey, Sally and the kids do without their husband and father for a fair bit of the cricket season. I am sure there are many things lined up for me as my time frees’ up.
Cheers and a last thankyou to everyone who has supported me over my time, it has been fun.
Go Barkers!!
Ken Trollope
SECRETARYS REPORT
Mooroolbark started the season with 5 senior sides. Unfortunately lack of numbers forced us to withdraw the fifth eleven.
Season 2011 / 12 for Mooroolbark Cricket Club saw 45 players who played in 2010 / 11 back at the club for the new season, bringing with them a combined total of 4548 matches of experience playing for Mooroolbark with them. Sadly, there were 30 players who played for the club in 2010 / 11 that did not play a match for Mooroolbark in 2011 / 12. Effectively the club lost 2722 matches worth of experienced players. I hope to see many of those players return for season 2012 / 13.
The club welcomed back 7 past senior players for season 2011 / 12. Welcome back to Dain Catley, Brent Thomas, Andrew Wadsworth, Steve Wallace, Darren Wardley, Dylan Williamson & Glen Williamson.
19 new players played their first games of senior cricket for Mooroolbark in 2011 / 12 including some promising juniors & some older new faces. Congratulations to Charlie Beresford, Damian Cameron, Brayden Clark, Paul Illichman, Ryan Illichman, Chris Mitchell, Alan Preston, William Sharp, Brent Smith, Rod Smith, Tim Smith, Aaron Stack, Ron Taylor, Jack Thomas, Mitch Williams, Aaron Williamson, Josh Witt, Tom Wragg & Peter Wright on your first senior games for the mighty Barkers.
In total 71 players took the field in senior matches for Mooroolbark in 2011 / 12, of which 38 (54%) played 10 games for more, 11 (15%) played between 5 to 9 games & 22 (31%) played 4 or less games. Well done to the 38 players who played 10 or more matches. Hopefully the other 33 will play more matches next season. Thanks to all those who filled in throughout the season.
It was great to see many father son combinations take the field at times during the season including Rod & Tim Smith, Brent & Kaiden Smith, Darren & Carlin Jackson, Matt & Alex Marsh, Glen & Dylan & Aaron Williamson, Paul & Ryan Illichman plus Darren & Judd Bersey. Congratulations to the selectors for making this happen.
Congratulations to our senior first eleven who once again proved to be one of the better teams in Trollope Shield, making the finals but unfortunately losing the first final & our senior third eleven who made the finals in B-Grade & also lost the first final.
Big Congratulations to our Veteran’s side on a great season & making the Grand Final. We welcomed some great blokes to the club in Colin Reyment, Andrew Smith, Ron Taylor, Brent Smith, Justin King, Daniel Maher, Paul Illichman & Geoff Reyment. We also saw the return of past players John Fisher, Darren Fisk & Darryl Emery.
Big Congratulations to our Twenty 20 side who provided some great entertainment & made the Grand Final. We welcomed back to Callan Stevens for a couple of games.
We were close to winning the Trollope Shield, B-Grade, Masters 3 & Twenty20 competitions but did bring home the prize in any of them this year. With a little luck, I believe the club will experience some success next season in regards to winning multiple flags. Congratulations to all the winners of the Batting & Bowling averages. Congratulations to Matt Whittaker for winning the Club Champion award, Darren Wardley for winning the Lindsay Trollope award & Carlin Jackson for winning the Most Improved award. On behalf of the club I would like to thank Bernie Stock for his tireless work behind the bar & congratulate him on winning the Geoff Darcy Award for Best Clubman.
Thank you to Darren Bersey for his great coaching over the past few seasons. You will be difficult to replace.
Congratulations to those who achieved personal milestones during season 2011 / 12. Special mention must go to Ken Trollope, who surpassed 400 senior games for the club, 10000 senior runs & bowled his 1000th over for the club during the season. Ken is a club legend in every regard.
Well done also to the following players. Shane Donovan moved past Colin Perrett, Richard Linley & Colin Peeler for highest number of senior games played for the club to be now 14th on the list. Lincoln Grigg moved past Neville Roper to now sit 18th in games played for the club. Richard Ellisdon moved past Mick Piggott to now sit 6th on the list of highest run scorers for the club. Brendon Ricci moved passed Richard Linley to now be 8th on the list of highest run scorers. Shane Donovan moved ahead of Neville Roper to sit 15th in runs scored. Shane Archer moved ahead of Tony Guy, Colin Peeler & Ray Nichols to now sit 20th on the list of highest run scorers. Justin Barrand & Shane Archer both moved ahead of Richard Ellisdon for most wickets taken to sit 14th & 13th respectively. Lincoln Grigg moved past Andrew Freeman & Rob Baldwin to now sit 23rd on the list of highest wicket takers. Daniel Dimitriou moved ahead of Rob Balwyn to now sit 25th on the list of all time highest wicket takers for the club.
Sadly a couple of club stalwarts have announced their retirement from senior cricket. Ian Stewart played a club record 434 games, made 9167 runs (average 27.36), bowled 906 overs for 130 wickets (average 26.57). Ian captained many sides & served on the committee for many years. Ian Stewart is a club legend in every regard & on behalf of the club I thank him for his massive contribution over many years. John Matthews played 141 games & captained several sides. He was renowned for his hit & miss cut shot, his sometimes unorthodox but very effective wicket keeping, his long winded but amusing match reports & his long neck travelers after a match. It was a privilege to play matches with both these guys & I hope they change their minds regarding retirement or at least play some vets games for the club in the future.
I would like to thank all players & fellow committee members for an enjoyable season both on & off the field. Let’s make it even better next season. Special thanks to Shane Donovan & Shane Archer who helped make my job as Secretary easier with their consistent help.
I hope to see everybody back at the club & the return of many past players in 2012 / 13. Go Barkers for the upcoming season.
Andrew McDonald
TREASURERS REPORT
Treasurer’s Report
Financially, season 2011/2012 ended with the club experiencing an operating loss of $5,901.00. This was largely due to additional costs associated with the development of the run-up area for the new net facility at the Heights Reserve and costs relating to procuring our international player, Brayden Clark. Hopefully we can increase our team numbers and patronage during the upcoming season which will assist the club in a number of areas financially.
The Capital Expenditure during this season included the purchase of two defibrillators; one for the Heights Reserve and the other to be kept at Kiloran Park. This was a joint effort in conjunction with the Football Club. The profits generated by both clubs at the MCC v MFC T20 match which was held during the season managed to raise $2,471 to be applied towards the costs of this equipment. Development of the bowling run-ups for the new nets training facility at the Heights reserve was also undertaken. A special thanks needs to be given to Adam Houghton, for giving up his own time to construct the run-ups. With the completion of the bowling run-up area, the new Heights training facility expenditure totalled $46,278 spread out over the two previous financial years. The Yarra Ranges council were kind enough to provide the club with a grant of $25,000, which was received last year, to assist in this development. This reduced the net cost of the club to $21,278.
The coming season’s budget for Capital Expenditure is expected to be minimal with the exception of plans to raise and replace the Heights Reserve centre pitch. We estimate the costs of this project to be around $5,000 based on previous experience with the Kiloran pitch replacements. To assist the club in financing this project, we will be looking at a range of potential government grants and in-house fund raising.
From an income perspective, our biggest revenue item being profit from bar sales increased by 7%. Although we experienced a decrease in the bar’s turnover by 12%, our gross profit margin improved by 10% to 54%, allowing us to generate an increase in bar profits compared to last year. It should be noted the social functions profit does not include any bar takings on the nights as I have been unable to allocate this accordingly in the financial reports for various reasons. Special mention must go to Bernie Stock who again assisted me behind the bar this season, his efforts are greatly appreciated.
And finally, thank you to all of the committee members who have had the time to assist me in my role this year.
Adam Brush Honorary Treasurer
CAPTAIN REPORTS
Trollope Shield
We started the season with a clear objective to try to win a third premiership in a row. Ultimately we fell short when we lost the elimination final to Warranwood. However our season was a lot more complex than this.
We were a little unlucky to only finish third having only lost 2 games during the home and away season. We were well placed to win the two washouts. Other teams recruited significantly in an effort to beat us and I believe that we had the ability to still win it. Evidence of this was our easy wins over the top two sides in Wantirna South and South Croydon. The side that was our downfall ironically was a well balanced team with no big name recruits in Warranwood.
The team benefited by playing another young player in Andy Keane for the whole season. Andy batted in our top order and showed promise that he will be a long term, good quality bat for our team. I think Andy knows that he belongs and his innings against Drew Mckay at Wantirna South showed us all that our faith in him is justified. I am hoping he can take another step forward next year and aim in the vicinity of a 300 run season.
Whilst we missed Mark Ross this year in all facets of the game it allowed Jarrod Runge to play a bigger role with the ball. Whilst Jarrod played in our premiership last year, I think his development this year has been a significant positive for our club. I understand that we cannot win it every year and there are some other measures that we need to look at to judge our season. In this light Jarrod has been a major success for us in that he took a lot of wickets and bowled lots of economical overs for us. I am looking forward to seeing Rossy return next year to bowl in tandem with Jarrod.
I believe our bowlers are the best in the competition and performed accordingly. To Wiz, Wattsy, Rungey and Dima, you can hold your head up that you guys did all you could to get us through to the Grand Final. Your standards never dropped and you are the reason why I believe we are still a huge chance to challenge again next season.
The reality is that our batsmen did not make enough runs. The comforting thing is I do not need to single anyone out as none of us made enough. We still have the ability to be good in this area and as individuals and as a team we will have to be a more determined group.
Our fielding is a little harder to classify. I think we are a great fielding side and showed that for the majority of the year. There are no better in the field than Wiz, Brush and Runge. However in the last month we dropped a lot of chances that committed, hungry for success sides take. Had those chances been taken we would have finished on top. Wonga would have been an outright, Baysie Park would have been almost over on day one and we got beaten in the elimination final by 4 wickets having dropped several chances. I truly believe the major issue was our hunger for success. It was not at the level required and led to a concentration level relative to a side good enough the make the finals but not up to the level required to win a premiership. Part of the problem is being unable deal with so much recent success. Maybe next year we can be the hunter again. In saying that we never made it easy for anyone and we are still a feared opposition.
I wish Brayden all the very best as he heads home to England. I understand the difficulties being so far away from home and his efforts were appreciated.
The other positive for the team was the decision to let Dima and Wiz lead the T20 format. It is a clear objective to develop future leaders. This should help move the clubs 1st eleven into the future successfully. They did a good job getting through to the final without being able to win it. This experience will be invaluable.
I still enjoy playing and leading you guys and would like to thank my team mates for their support. I noticed more input into on field decisions from Egga this season and I think he has a lot more to offer this team in this area. He is the ultimate team player and I would like to thank him for his support during the season.
Finally I would like to thank, Darren Bersey for a successful 3 year coaching partnership. It has been a pleasure to work with you and your support of the club, our team and me has been a major reason for our success in the competition over this period. Your impact will be long standing and your company is welcomed by this club and its players forever. I look forward to a continued friendship with you in the future.
Linc
Wilkins
After initially only taking the reins for the start of the season it soon became obvious from the that this would last the season and while we struggled for consistency I enjoyed the role and was pleased with the effort and support shown by the playing group. To lose 9 regular 1st or 2nd eleven players this was always going to be a tough season in Wilkins but we got some good strong games into the young group which should transfer to some of these players being close to consistent 1st eleven cricket in the near future.
A great win in the first round following a bold showing in the second gave some hope for the season but we could not continue with those performances and fell away against most opposition.
Thanks to Tayls, Jacko, Berse and Dick who along with myself made sure the average age was above 20 for most games and to the young band of men thanks for making the season fun in sometimes trying circumstances. It was great to have 3 under 14’s and an under 16 play at stages during the season and all looks great for the clubs future with the talent on display.
A special thanks to Haydn Taylor and Mark Watson for scoring during the season and Andrew Catley for helping around the club during home games.
Ken
B Grade
Our season started with a one day match away at Scoresby Ferndale fielding a side boasting a good mix of youth & experience. Batting first we struggled against the tight bowling to post 8/105 from our 40 overs. Only the comeback man Darren “Dasha” Wardley (31 runs) posted a decent score & remarkably hit everything out of the middle after 10 years away from cricket. All of our Bowlers bowled well with the exception of Dasha who showed he had forgotten how to bowl during the 10 years away. Alex Fakraufon (2 for 22) & Joffa Matthews (1 for 11) helped to keep us in the game for a long way, but our total proved too small to defend.
Round Two was away against Wantirna South. Bowling first, we bowled & fielded well with just 10 men to dismiss them for 178 with a few overs to play. Pick of the Bowlers was Jeffery “Joffa” Matthews (4 for 40 off 20.3) off his 2 step run up & Craig “Hollywood” Holwell (3 for 15 off 7) bowling a great spell. Special mention must go to Darren “Supercoach” Bersey (1 for 31 off 16) for his tight bowling & his surprise over the top celebration after turning a ball. He had everyone on the field laughing. Most of us thought he was bowling spinners & that more than one ball had turned in 10 overs. Under 14 players Jack “Fluff” Thomas (0 for 22 off 8) & Mark “Butts” Bultler (1 for 17 off 8) also bowled very well & the much older Justin ”JB” Barrand (1 for 50 off 17) bowled well but copped some stick late in the day. The following week saw us robbed somewhat with a soggy ground & longer grass making it much harder to score than the previous week. JB (28 runs) got a surprise elevation to opener & then surprised his team mates with a new found ability to block & leave good balls while batting for 24 overs. None of us thought he had it in him. Dasha (44) again fired & put on a nice partnership with Rod “Gun” Smith (35) to put us well in the game. It was then left to Rod, Hollywood, Fluff & Kaiden “Smiley” Jackson to get us over line. Batting in heavy rain & poor light they fought hard & nearly got us a win in an exciting finish, but we fell just short by 3 runs. In the end we lost the game by a “Bersey” who was a late withdrawal the second week with illness, leaving us with only 10 batsmen. We fielded with 10 & batted with 10 were very unlucky to lose. We did get the belief that we could win a game at this level.
Round 3 was a complete washout against Bayswater Park. Round 4 saw us play a one day match at home against North Ringwood. We batted first & Joffa (28) got us off to a flying start. Some early wickets proved a blessing as Dave “Tails” Taylor (102*) came to crease early & showed his class with a well built innings, smashing them everywhere at the end. He was well supported by Shane “Arch” Archer (38*) to take us to a total of 5 for 242. The bowlers fought hard & we fielded well to restrict N.Ringwood to 7 for 233. Joffa (4 for 50) was again the pick of the bowlers.
Round 5 was away at Chirnside for a 2 day match. We went into the game with four “Smitties”. Being Rod, Tim, Brent & Kaiden Smith. Bowling first we got smashed to all parts of the ground by a Chrinside first eleven player who retired before the tea break on 103* & left for a wedding. Our bowlers proved too good for the rest of their batsmen & we bowled them out for 193 after 50 overs. Butts, Joffa, Hollywood, Shane “TPC” Donovan, R B & T Smith all bowled well, but it was comeback kid Dillan “Willow” Williamson (3 for 36 off 13) & Kaiden “Special K” Smith (3 for 16 off 5.3) who were super impressive. The captain stuck to his pre match plan of batting 4 Smiths in a row 4 to 6 but it was not to be with the game being washed out the second week with us 3 for 38 from our 30 overs the first week. Mark “Butts” Butler (14*) showed fantastic determination with a solid 30 over innings.
Round 6 saw us away at Bayswater Park for a one day match. We batted first & batted badly with only JB (22) & Hollywood (10) getting double figures. Cooper “Coops” Grigg & Fluff Thomas battled hard for the last 20 overs to be both not out. The bowlers tried hard but our score of 9 for 88 was never going to be enough, with them passing us in 28 overs. JB (2 for 17 off 8) bowled a treat & was our only wicket taker.
Round 7 was a one day game against North Ringwood at Kiloran. With a star side on paper we made a poor score batting first, bowled out for 158 off 31 overs. JB (21) was again good opening the batting, Dasha (46) smashed them around & Jack “Fluff” Thomas (28) stepped up, but the rest of us lost our wickets cheaply. We again bowled well, but without needing to score quickly, Nth Ringwood passed us easily with 2 overs remaining & 7 wickets in hand. Shane “Kelts” Kelton (2 for 20 off 8) & Arch (1 for 19 off 8) were the best of the bowlers.
Round 8 was another one day game at home against Wantirna South. We again found ourselves with only 10 players. It mattered not when batting first as Joffa (107) opened up with a whirlwind century well supported by Tom “Onya” Wragg “s” (28) for an entertaining opening partnership of 143 runs. Geoff “Rainman” Rayner (18) & Dasha (77*) put the icing on the team innings taking us to 3 for 247. Dasha hit the Nth Ringwood skipper for 4 massive sixes in the one over which was something very special to watch. North Ringwood batted well in reply & the game looked poised to go down to the wire until we had them all out for 223 from 38 overs. Willow (0 for 35 off 8), Fluff (0 for 37 off 8), Rainman (1 for 44 off 6), Joffa (2 for 37 off 8) all bowled well to good batting. Dasha (3 for 47) showed he had finally remembered how to bowl after many weeks of training, but our hero was Aaron “Azza” Williamson (4 for 22 off 5.5) who bowled sensationally under pressure at the death with the game on the line. Thanks to Kyle Larson for becoming our 11th fielder late in the day.
I was overseas for the Round 8 one day game against Croydon North at home but the score sheet reads well. Batting first we smashed 287. Joffa (36), yet another comeback man Brent “Bristle” Thomas (37), Dasha (68), Arch (60) & TPC (28) were all amongst the runs. Glen “Bundy” Williamson came out of retirement to play a match with sons Dillan & Aaron. Looks like the two older Willows had some fun at the end of the innings with Glen (6*)(one six) & Dillan (13*) (two sixes) but I mostly wish I was there to witness the inter family sledging which I am sure would have been rampant. Croydon Nth was all out for 179 in 30 overs. Best of the bowlers were Joffa (3 for 50 off 8) & Dillan (2 for 23 off 8).
I returned for round 9 with the team talking finals on the horizon if we keep winning. A poor display against Chirnside Park at home followed. Our bowlers * fielders did their job well, restricting Chirnside Park to 8 / 172 off 40 overs. Shane “King of Swing” Donovan (3 for 30 off 5), Arch (1 for 12 off 6) & Joffa (1 for 16 off 8) were stars with the ball. Our batting was bad, bowled out for 99 with only Kaiden “Special K” Smith (17) & myself (25) offering any resistance. Fluff (8) hit a nice 6 being a rare innings highlight.
Round 10 saw a quick return to our winning ways in a 1 day game against Templeton at home. Our bowling & fielding was awesome as we knocked them over for 137 on a fast ground. Joffa (4 for 23 off 7), King of Swing Donovan (3 for 22 off 8), Dasha (1 for 17 off 5), Willow (0 for 14 off 6) & Brent Thomas (1 for 27 off 5) were too good for them. We chased the runs down in 30 overs with Joffa (42), me (36) & JB (17*) among the runs.
Round 11 saw us off to Templeton to play a 2 day game on their very small home ground. For several of us it was our first match playing with the legendary Ken Trollope who came down from the 2’s for a break from the frustration of losing every week. We bowled well but dropped some catches allowing them to make a respectable 250 from 77 overs. Arch (0 for 18 off 11) was unplayable, JB (0 for 29 off 9) tried hard, King of Swing (2 for 40 off 15) bamboozled them, Ken (Legend) Trollope (3 for 65 of 18.2) was too clever for them, but one bowler was awesome being Dasha (5 for 29 off 14). The second week saw future star cricketer Kaiden “Special K” Smith (53* retired hurt) show his potential. Joffa (27) & me (23) got a few early before we had the pleasure of watching Ken Trollope (107) show his class, batting brilliantly after a shaky start to steer us to victory. Dasha (28), JB (25*), Azza Williamson (6*) & Brent “Big Bird” Smith (8) had some fun on our way to 7 /296.
Round 12 was Nth Croydon away. We bowled first with a fired up Arch (4 for 38 off 11) bowling the house down after the skipper made him grumpy with his field placements. Bristle Thomas (1 for 17 off 4) was slippery. The youngsters Butts (1 for 34 off 10) & the unlucky Jack “can’t buy a wicket” Thomas (0 for 18 off 6) bowled great. The veteran Joffa (0 for 22 off 7) & Dasha (2 for 25 off 8) bowled tight. JB (2 for 14 off 6.1) had begged all week to open the bowling because he needs time to warm up before a spell. He was allowed to open the bowling after tea (allowing for his long warm up) & cleaned up the tail in an attempt to stick it up the captain. Croydon Nth all out 183. JB (7*) then opened the batting, staying at the crease for 21 overs at the end of the first days play for a very boring 3 runs. Ken was also not out overnight with us at 2 / 36. JB continued the boring batting the next week for 9 overs to more than double his total to 7. Fortunately Ken “Legend” Trollope (81) was at the other end keeping us awake with a classy batting display. Arch (42) partnered with Ken for 74, then briefly with Quack(7) & then Dasha (5), before steering home then win with Bristle (61). Bristle & Fluff Thomas (23) then put on a father & son display & with the help of Tom “Onya” Wraggs took our total to 10 / 284.
Round 13 was at home against top side Scoresby Ferndale with a spot in the finals on the line. Batting first we made a respectable 238, JB (23) kept up his good form opening the batting & actually scores some run for his efforts. Special K Smith(45) was brilliant again, Arch (42) batted well but the star was Dasha (76), again smashing the opposition attack. Shane “Master Blaster” Donovan (20) put on a nice late innings TPC cameo. Unfortunately it rained all day the following week. We waited around long enough to make sure other results were unlikely to knock us out of 4thy place before hitting the bar back at the heights. We had made the finals.
The elimination semi final was against Bayswater Park at Guy Turner Reserve. I lost the toss. Our bowling & fielding was superb. 8 different bowlers bowled before tea with all bowling well & the wickets shared. Well done to Dillan Williamson (4 for 36 off 17.1) Dasha (2 for 22 off 11), Arch (1 for 34 off 12), Mark “Butts” Butler (1 for 15 off 3), Justin “JB” Barrand (1 for 5 off 5), Bristle Thomas (1 for 12 off 4), Joffa (0 for 16 off 5) & Jack “Fluff” Thomas (0 for 3 off 2). We bowled them out for 150 in 60 overs. Sadly, we got off to a bad start with the bat losing Joffa & JB cheap & early. Butts (23) & Special K (19) put on a good partnership to get us to 34 before Kaiden went out just before stumps on day one. Butts & Tom Wragg then blocked out the last few balls for us to finish on 3 / 34 overnight & still well in the game. Unfortunately the second day did not go well with only Arch (15) offering any resistance to some very good bowling & we were bowled out for 101.
All in All it was a good season & I thank all of the 32 players who played in B Grade. I enjoyed playing with all of you. We saw the development of many very good young players. Special mention to Kaiden “Special K” Smith, Jack “Fluff” Thomas (think he prefers “JT”) & Mark “ Butts” Butler who all showed they are already good senior cricketers & have the attitude to become star cricket players. Several cricket veteran’s showed they have still got what it takes with special mentions to veterans Joffa & Arch on very good seasons. We saw some a great come back & an awesome season from Dasha & I wonder how many wickets & runs his absence has cost the club over the last ten years. It was great to have Brent Thomas back playing at the club, a great bloke to have on the field. Dillan Williamson returned & bowled better than ever. JB surprised many with his new found batting ability & can still take wickets. Shane Donovan showed he is still Shane Donovan. Well done to nice bloke Tom Wragg for a great job with the gloves for most the season & some timely innings with the bat. I got to play a match with legend Ken Trollope which was a special moment for me.
Lastly, thanks to all the players for their understanding throughout the season. It was not an easy job at times captaining a team with 8 opening bowlers, 11 blokes who can bat, up to 6 other captains when in the field & several blokes who would love to open the bowling plus the batting every match. It was great that everybody who played accepted my decisions without fuss (most of the time) throughout the season. I think I managed to give everyone a fair go. Several players readily accepted being dropped to the seconds or fourths at times during the season for various reasons & I thank them for that. Once again it was great playing with & captaining all 32 players who played in B-Grade. Every player tried their best every match & I thank them for their best efforts.
I hope to see you all next season & hopefully share a flag with some of you. Go Barkers

Mooroolbark CC 4th XI Captains report
Once again the 4th XI suffered from the general lack of numbers in higher grades. A team made up of players who’s abilities, either by dent of advanced age, youth or form are better suited to a 6Th XI made heavy going of playing against strong, talented teams from other clubs.
However, the team did win two games, and would have won the final game had weather not intervened. It is of more than passing interest to myself that I played in only one of these three games, without any great contribution, re-enforcing my decision that it is well past time to hang up the boots.
Ian ‘Stalky’ Stewart has played his final game for Mooroolbark. 430+ games of senior cricket at one club is a remarkable record for a player of any calibre. The fact is that Ian is not only a gentleman, and a wonderful team man, but also a prolific batsman who has represented The Barkers at the highest level, playing in first XI premierships, and also mentoring many an aspiring young cricketer in the way the game is played, Mooroolbark Style. Stalky’s signature square cuts, leg glances and off drives are a feature of any of his innings. His 59no v Wonga Park was his final match winning Innings. It was a great honour and privilege to have played with you Ian.
Matt Marsh was the stalwart of the batting, richly deserving his batting average trophy. With scores of 95no, 106no and a string of scores between 20 and 40, Matt proved himself to be easily our most consistent bat. One notable effort of great grit and concentration was to bat for 64 overs while avoiding an outright defeat. The fact that Matt only scored 16 during this occupation was incidental to the courage shown and the lessons in ‘stick to it’ he was able to provide the youngsters in the team.
This season was notable for the progression of the younger ranks.
- Cooper Grigg will be a force to be reckoned with as he matures. A player of impeccable technique and exquisite timing, ‘Coop’ will lead many a batting assault for the Barkers (and others?) in the future. Put a cap away and reserve a First XI number for this young man. Cooper is also a more than handy medium pace bowler who never shirks a task. Always the first to put his hand up to bowl in a tricky situation. - Alex Marsh has improved so much it is hard to believe it is the same ‘smiling assassin’ that I threw the ball to, compared to the nervous, unsure player of last year. Not only has his control of leggie, wrong ‘un and top spinner improved, so has his loop and control of pace through the air. Alex’s batting, so uncertain in seasons past has broached a new high water mark. He now bats with assurance that comes of good coaching and technique. Much can be expected of Alex in the coming years. Alex’s batting highlight for me was his assured occupation for 23 probing overs by eventual grand finalist, Nth Ringwood. Raw scores alone don’t always tell the tale. - Judd Bersey has developed into a doughty opening bat, and much more than useful medium pacer, with very good control of line and length and the ability to swing the ball both ways. Our bowling ave. winner for the season, Judd will make a handy contributor to cricket teams over the coming years. - Aaron Williamson proved to be a real bonus. A fine bowler who gets good shape on the ball and bowls with great control of line, Aaron will be a stalwart of cricket teams for many years to come. He was very unlucky not to have picked up many more than his 5 wickets in senior company. - Ryan Illichman proved to be a wicket taking left handed opening bowler, who is far more dangerous when he gets the off stump line correct. Ryan’s wonderful one handed pluck at mid wicket to dismiss the Warrenwood Captain was probably our catch of the season. - Charlie Beresford will be a very fine leg spinner. A little faster and flatter through the air than Alex Marsh, he is harder to get down the wicket to, making it hard for batsmen to score from him off the front foot. A little more work on consistent full length will benefit Charlie greatly. I am very impressed with Charlie’s courage and application in the field. For such a slight fellow, he shows enormous pluck to get in the way of some fiercely struck blows. Thanks for your efforts Charlie. - Kaiden Jackson, our Keeper extraordinaire. In typical Jackson style, Kaiden appears to be very casual in his demeanour and movement, but both are deceptive, as Kaiden is a tough competitor who will be a fixture of Cricket Clubs for decades. Great hands and feet behind the stumps, minimal fuss, great results. - Will Sharp improved steadily over the season, and will improve more if his keenness and willingness to learn continue at a high level. For the rest of us, we struggled on as best as ailing backs, knees and ability would allow. Chris Mitchell was a valued and ever willing team mate. Paul Illichman was a willing contributor. Geoff Rainer only graced us with his considerable ability once, as domestic pressures kept him from donning the whites. Doug Fisher does what Doug does best, and charms us all with his infectious smile. Chris Walker returned from a debilitating back injury, and it was great to have him on the field with us. Ron Taylor came to the club to play veterans and was cajoled into the 4th XI, where he amused us all with his wit and flashing smile; the fact that he can bat, bowl, keep wicket and runs like a rabbit in the field helps too. Thanks Ronnie. Renato Paciocco joined us to play one last game with his great mate Ian. In typical ‘Patch’ Style he clobbered a brisk 50 from the shell shocked Montrose attack before retiring to his car to find a winner. It has been a great honour to play with you too, Renato. John Matthews played the early games in his inimitable style, wisecracking his way through games before age and injury forced the first of several retirements from this team. It has been great fun to play with you John.
Tom Wragg, Mark Butler, Jason Barrand, Brent ‘Big Bird’ Smith and Craig Holwell joined us with distinction at various times during the season. Each played a larger part in the great effort of the 3rd XI in making the finals. ‘The Coach’ Darren Bersey played one game, to open with his son, Judd. The ‘Bersey Boys’ lead the way from the top of the order, the way that good tough cricketers do.
As for me, I can (finally) see the writing on the wall, and have retired after 44 seasons of being a flannelled fool. I have some great memories and hundreds of friends I can look back on.
It was a privilege to be welcomed into the fold by Mooroolbark CC, to play with some terrific cricketers and even better people. I wish the Barkers all the best of success into the future. I was a great honour to lead this team of cricketers onto the field. Thanks Fella’s

JUNIOR COORDINATORS REPORT
The 2011/12 season was a successful one for the Mooroolbark Juniors on several levels. We were able to field an U16 team after failing to do so in 2010/11 and had a realistic/good year given the varying degrees of ability in the team. I feel however integration with the seniors for this group wasn’t as successful as I would have hoped. The U14 sides both had successful seasons with the 14-1’s falling short in the grand final and the 14-3’s making a semi-final despite being short for most of the year and with several first year players. Several of the 14-1 players also played a significant amount of senior cricket during the season too. Both U12 teams made grand finals with the 12F-2 team winning the premiership, with Hayden Daniell winning the RDCA Batting and the 12-1 team performing well both in the grand final with the help of two U10 players and throughout the season, having to play short of numbers for most of the season. The U10’s had a great season with a good atmosphere to be had down at Kiloran with the 2 teams fixtured to play home games at the same time. At this time it appears our retention rate will be good for next season hopefully resulting in the fielding of 3 U12 teams. Milo has grown from 8 participants in the 10/11 season to 35 this season. To get numbers to this point took a significant amount of effort during the pre season including supporting milo clinics at two schools run by Cricket Victoria. I expect under the continued guidance of Shane Donavan and the fact that we are “known” as a milo centre again to grow to 60+ participants in 12/13. The only disappointment was at times Donna lacked the support needed to run the program as well as we need to. Congratulations to the following Juniors who played representative cricket during the summer – Outer East Victorian Championships 14’s : Alex Marsh & Mark Butler Outer East Victorian Championships U14 girls: Maddie Wright HatchU15’s: Aaron Stack & Josh Exley RDCA- U16 Keith Mackay Shield: Alex Fakraufon U14 Russell Allen Shield: Cooper Grigg & Kaidin Jackson U14 Des Nolan Cup: Tim Nathan U12 Keith Mitchell Shield: Dylan Butler, Joel Nathan & Ben Palmer U12 Josh Brown Plate: Riley Smith
Special thanks to all the coaches, team managers and Di Wool (Junior Secretary) for their work during the season. As a club, parent group and for the players, Mooroolbark is fortunate to have been able to attract consistently talented kids. The Challenge for the club is how we nurture these relationships for those kids who go onto play higher levels of cricket and for those with the potential to come through the senior ranks at Mooroolbark. Regardless our goal should be that when someone leaves the Junior ranks that they come out a better person for having played at Mooroolbark. Matt Marsh Junior President/Co ordinator
HIGHS AND LOWS OF 2011/12
(Moorolbark Senior Cricket)
Written by Shane Donovan
Edited by Andrew McDonald
The First X1 unfurled their premiership flag in Round 1 against Norwood. Defending 8/124, Egga top scoring with 27, the boys defended their total, rolling Norwood for 83 with Wiz, Linc & Rungy all snaring 3 wickets each. The seconds headed up the mountain for their round one clash with only 10 men. Batting first, the Barkers scrambled to 8/150 off their 40 overs. Dain Catley top scored with 46 with support from S.Undries (41), Ken Trollope (24*) & Kyle Larsen (23). Olinda had their chances, but a determined Barker X snared a memorable 1 wicket victory, with Darren Jackson turning back the clock off the last ball, chasing it down, turning & throwing the ball to the keeper to find the batsman 1 metre short. The stirring victory for the 2’s was to be their only win for the season. The offside field during that game could have taken on Mthusulah’s X1 with Jacko (49), Ken (47), Berse (47) & Donna (39) combining for a whopping 182 years of experience. The thirds had a loss first up saving the President a shout. Boooo! The 4th X1 started off the season in great fashion against Montrose. Matt Marsh with 37 runs helped the Barkers to 5/107. Cooper Grigg (3/22 & Ryan Illichman (3/19) combined to skittle the wolves for 94. Round 2 saw the 1st X1 take on the much vaunted & cashed up South Croydon. They were no match for the mighty Barkers who made 255 with Lincoln leading the way with 73. Daniel Dimma was the chief destroyer on day 2 with 4/35 as the Bulldogs succumbed to be all out for 144. The second X1 made a very competitive total of 8/210 with Dave Taylor making 47* versus Kilsyth. Despite a valiant effort by Dain Catley (4/53) the two’s lost with 4 overs left to play The 3’s had a heartbreaking 3 run loss against eventual premier Wantirna South after fielding & batting with only 10 men. The 4th Eleven were well beaten by Wonga Park despite a 136 run partnership from Matt Marsh (95*) & Ian Stewart (34) helping the Barkers to a respectable total of 5/226 Round 3 saw the 1st X1 suffer their first loss of the season with a lowlight from the skipper, bowling 3 no-balls & 12 wides during his 5 over spell. The President did not go much better for the 2nd X1 with the ball, with one of Warrandyte’s batsmen taking a particular liking to his off spinners & smashing 20 runs from one over. The 4’s got thrashed by St Andrews despite the solid efforts of Mark Butler (30*) & (4/17). John Matthews (1/6) was a surprise wicket taker with the ball. The 3’s registered their first win for the season on the back of Dave Taylor smashing 102* in the Barkers total of 5/542 from 40 overs v North Ringwood. The Barkers eventual winners by 9 runs. Round 4 saw Daniel Dimma on fire taking 5/31 for the 1st X1 helping restrict South Warrandyte to 169. Day 2 was washed out. The 2’s suffered a very disappointing loss against Montrose in Round 4, but this could not be attributed to Carlin Jackson who got his first 5 wicket haul in senior cricket finishing with 5/49 off 12 overs with 1 maiden. Carlin had 3/3 after his first 2 overs. In the 3’s Dylan Williamson (3/36) & Kaiden Smith (3/16) destroyed Chirnside Park after a Chirnside Park 1st X1 player smashed a ton before tea. Second day was washed out. Round 5 saw the Barkers take on East Ringwood in Trollope Shield. The Barkers made 6/159 with Brendan Ricci making 42 before routing East Ringwood for just 61 after being 6/13 early. Watts (2/2), Grigg (2/9) & Runge (3/17) did most of the damage. Round 6 saw Dain Catley make his debut for the 1st X1. Jarrod Runge was superb taking 6/59 off 20.2 overs. Matt Whittaker (3/12) set the tone early taking 3 wickets in one over to have the Devils reeling at 4/15 before Jarrod put them in a spin & knocking them over for 117 runs. Any Keane (41), Linc (40) & Brendan (38) helped the Barkers to a score of 230 & a resounding 113 run win. Dain Catley was promising on debut, but in his last over of the second innings donated $140 to the King of Wantirna. The second X1 made 9/233 against Wantirna Sth with the highlights being a 105 run partnership between Darren Jackson (62) & Ken Trollope (62) & a handy 30 from Ben Thomas. They had the Devils 2/7 but some farcical fielding efforts resulted in the boys losing by 5 wickets. Round 8 saw the 3rd X1 compile 3/247. Joffa Matthews smashed 107 inside 28 overs in a 143 run opening stand with Tom Wragg (28). Dasha Wardley then picked up were Joffa left off, smashing 77 not out. Aaron Williamson was a star with the ball taking 4/22 of 5.5 overs as they rolled Wantirna Sth for 223. The 4th X1 snaffled their second win of the season, rolling Wonga Park for 143 with Judd Bersey snaring 3/21. Cooper Grigg (31*) & Ian Stewart (59*) combined for a 98 run partnership and led their team to a comprehensive 8 wicket victory. Round 7 saw the 1st X1 take on Croydon Nth. Brayden Clark (73) helped the barkers to 9/209 before Jarrod Runge (4/57) & Dan Dimitriou (3/25) rolled the Knights for 134. Round 9 saw the 3’s make a charge towards finals, compiling 8/287 with Darren Wardley (68)& Shane Archer (60) leading the way in a comprehensive 108 run win against Croydon North. Round 8 for the second X1 saw Darren Jackson make 57 out of a total of 173 for the Barkers. Nth Ringwood used up nearly all of the balls available to pass us 7 down in the 79th over. Round 12 for the 3rd X1 saw them bowling first in oppressive heat and restrict Templeton to 250 on a ground smaller than Kiloran. Darren Wardley snared 5/29 off 14 overs. On day 2, Ken Trollope made a magnificent 107 in a master class of batting. While Ken was belligerent & brutal at one end, Kaiden Smith was calm & classy at the other making 53 retired hurt with a bloody nose. The Barkers finished 9/296, the highest score for the season. Round 12 for the 4’s saw the Barkers comprehensively spanked on day 1. The Barkers were rolled for just 47 before Nth Ringwood smashed 317 before stumps. The Bulls rocked up the second day believing an outright win was inevitable but the Barkers bats had other ideas. Alex & Matt Marsh opened the batting with Alex out for 7 in the 23rd over. Judd Bersey then joined Matt & batted until tea break with the Barkers 1/58 off 46 overs. Judd was out first over after tea for 25 in 24 overs. Matt Marsh followed 3 overs later after making a very, very, very patient 16 from 50 overs at the crease. There was a big collapse with the Barkers losing 6/29 before wily veterans Ian Stewart & Wayne Pollard combined to take us through to 8/101 at stumps. A magnificent effort & some great Barker spirit from the whole team. Round 9 of Trollope shied saw the Barkers in all sorts of bother at 6/71 against bottom of the ladder Croydon Ranges. Matt Whittaker & John O’Donnell then combined to resurrect the Mooroolbark innings with a 122 run partnership. Wiz (27) was great support for John as the taunted & terrorized the Ranges bowlers & tantalized his teammates with a sensational innings of 113 which included 15 fours. The Barkers made 8/244, their highest score for the season &then rolled the Ranges for 166 with Jarrod Runge 4/64 off 26 again in the wickets. Jason Watts bowled superbly for 2/23 off 15 with 8 maidens. Round 9 for the 2nd X1 saw the Barkers lose in the first innings to Lilydale & the Dales eying off an outright victory. Kyle Larsen & Brad Watson had other ideas & batted for 40+ overs for a 172 run unbroken partnership. Kyle played the anchor role with a solid 61 not out while Brad Watson had a day out making his first senior century finished the day on 109 not out (7 fours & 5 sixes) The Round 10 Trollope Shield match saw Linc win the toss & decide to send Wonga Park in to bat first. Up stepped Matthew Whittaker to completely bamboozle the Wonga bats picking up 6/11. Jason Watts also instrumental with 3/26 off 15 to roll Wonga for an embarrassing 48 after Wiz had them 5/11 early. The Barkers then raced to 2/130 in 40 overs before declaring with Brayden Clark (46) & Brendon Ricci (55*) amongst the runs. They then had Wonga 1/16 overnight in their second innings. Despite a top effort by Wiz (3/53) in the second innings, Wonga Park avoided the outright defeat. Wiz finished with 9/64 for the match. The final round for the two’s was a tough match with Ben Thomas injuring his Knee & Darren Jackson struck on the arm & suffering a torn bicep. Brad Watson was the only shining light taking 5/32 off 11 overs as the Barkers lost outright to Templeton. Round 13 for the 3rd X1 saw us roll Croydon North for 183 with Arch collecting 4/38. In reply Ken Trollope smashed 81 before Brent Thomas chimed in with 61 to hand the barkers a 101 run victory The final round saw the 3’s play top side Scoresby Ferndale the first day before he second day was washed out. The barkers made a competitive 10/238 with Dasha again starring with 76, well supported by Kaiden Smith (45) & Arch (42) In what was announced to Ian Stewart's last game G grade made their highest score for the season of 260. Matt Marsh starred with 106* & Patch made a cameo appearance & showed he’s still got it making 50. (tribute to Stalky after we talk about finals) The end of the home & away season saw the 1st X1 finish 3rd & the 3rd X1 finish 4th. Unfortunately both teams batted miserably & were knocked out in the first week of the finals. The overall highlight of the season was the 1st X1 bowling attack. Jarrod Runge the lading wicket taker with 30. Combined with Matt Whittaker 29 wickets, Daniel Dimitriou 22 & Jason Watts 16, they destroyed opposition batting line ups all season.
Thank you Ian Stewart
Ian Stewart played a club record of 434 games for the club over approx 25 years. He was on the committee for many of those years including the roles of President, Secretary & Treasurer. His career on the field was spectacular winning a record 15 batting awards including multiple 1st X1 season batting averages. Ian made over 9167 runs & took 130 wickets for the club. It is rumoured that there were more than a few catches taken along the way as well. Ian was an integral member of Mooroolbark’s Chandler shield premiership in 1971/72. Ian is a living legend & one of nature’s true gentlemen. Thanks for everything “Storky” from the MCC. You will be missed on the field. In what appears to have been his last season, Ian scored 215 runs at 30.71.
A Class Act, right till the end.
