ROUND 8 – REVIEW Once again the toss of the coin started just like every game this season with me losing but this Seniors: 5 th February and 12 th February was a good one too loose with the deck looking LOC: Round 13 vs. ADELAIDE UNI at like having a bit in it and with Will and the rig HARRIS OVAL both in the team we didn’t mind having a bowl Walkerville 6/216 (cc) first. It soon turned out as a good loss with (Lamp 101, Bishop 54, Fuller 26) Will bowling an exceptional opening spell of 9 defeated Adelaide Uni overs 2-18 which the rig followed up with 11 (Mareloas 3/27, Lamp 2/19, Gunning 2/31) overs 3-37 this put us in a strong position and with some good and catches being held Round 14 vs. MAWSON LAKE at UNI SA we had them 7-111 at tea from here we should Walkerville 3/179 (cc) have them out for under 150 but old (Lamp and Fuller 50’s) habits crept in with a couple of dropped defeated by Mawson Lakes 6/183 catches and some bad misfields they were able (Broomhead 4 wickets) to get to 172 all out.

OVAL Walkerville 140 With Day two arriving and the rain floating (Rutherford 43, Cheary 37) around the wicket was in need of some quick defeated by Payneham 155 work Saturday morning which Graham done (Panzarino 3/10, Cowland 2/16, Callary 2/31) swiftly and we were away only 5 mins late. We had 80 overs to make roughly 90 runs and we A GRADE started well with Leesy finding the Round 9 vs. PAYNEHAM at again with no problems. Chopper WALKERVILLE OVAL (22) dug deep but fell just after we reached the Walkerville 6/197 dec and 6/104 3 figures. Peppers (5) batted time and put (Lee 92) (P Sarson 35, Manno 32) together a small with Leesy. We Defeated by Payneham 172 and 9/133 dec then loss Leesy for a well-made (92) and this (Knowles 3/37)(Knowles 4/34, Miller 3/42) made it 5-153 and the nerves started setting in as we had have some serious loss of wickets. We sent the two big boys in to try and finish ROUND 8 – WRITE UP’S within a couple of overs so Peppers would relax in the stand and this is exactly what they A GRADE did with the rig smashing a quick fire 29 with two consecutive sixes.

A win against the top side Payneham would required 108 runs off what we thought would still give a slim hope to the lads after two be 17 overs but the umpires soon changed that disappointing losses against beatable sides. we had 14 overs. On arrival at Payneham Oval which is normally a road and quick outfield there was grass on the pitch with a lush green outfield and overcast 108 off 14 was the situation so the boys went conditions. As we know Matho doesn’t need much out to have a real crack at pulling off out right assistance to send the opposition in so when points again didn’t start to plan with JB bowled winning the toss (7 out of 8) he sent Payneham in the 3rd over. Things then soon turned with in. Our opening combination of Sam “Bucko” the introduction of Carlo and the license to Buckley and Craig “Chainsaw” Cowland started well with a little bit of assistance in the deck swing together with Sarson they found the however for Chainsaw’s first 2 overs he wouldn’t boundary and also found the old guys on the know as he couldn’t hit the pitch. A confident bowling green Carlo fell for 32 and Sars soon LBW shout followed by an unfamiliar dropped followed for 35 which caused a minor collapse catch by keeper Browny off Bucko forecast a grim with leesy (1) and Chopper a and Woolly outlook for the Cats however another edge of fired for 1 this left Peppers the first game hero Bucko and this time Craig “are there other positions on the field other than first slip” Jervies and the rig who had a great game to try and took the catch to send us on our way. Young bring us home needing 28 off the last two overs Adam “The Rash” Rutherford was introduced into peppers had a real crack and suddenly it was 10 the attack and bowled tight however their off two balls and he found the boundary number 3 took to the young fella in his 6th over needing six off one ball and the one win we so Darcy “The Grasshopper” Wright was called had this season he was our man but he was into the attack to get the breakthrough. At the other end Nick “Boy Scout” Cheary pulling on the only able to manage to find the boundary rider whites for the Cats B Grade for the first time this we fell 4 short maximum points. year had the Payneham batters under control bowling an inspired spell of fast mediums unlucky It was a great win and to get so close to not to have a wicket after the Grasshopper outright was exceptional it was good to see dropped then then dropped again their guys find some form and have so many opener at midwicket all in one go. The Grasshopper got the vital breakthrough positive such as Leesy however turning one through the defenses of their number 3 having Payneham 2/73 of 30 92, knowlesy 7 wickets for the game along overs. After a 7 over spell (he’ll be feeling this with a good 29 when we needed it. Will’s fine tomorrow) from Boy Scout Cheary we looked to bowling spell and his fielding efforts for the Rowdy Stewe Callary for a wicket. Rowdy found first day were just awesome and set the tone the edge of the left hander in his first over flying to second slip however Matho had moved himself and Carlo to be unleashed and do what he does out of that position 2 balls earlier into the best and hit the ball. Great win Boys. onside, needless to say he was back in the slips On the Friday before the Saturday there was next ball. Redemption wasn’t long in coming in heavy rain in Adelaide however the advantage Rowdys second over when the same ball, to the with playing Payneham away is that they have same batsmen resulted in the same shot however covers so Saturday would not be affected. Again Matho was there for the Cats with Payneham an overcast day greeted the players however so losing their third wicket. did a damp pitch in particular one end. The day was becoming more overcast and with Apparently the covers were on however rain got rain on the way we went to tea having Payneham underneath………………….. anyway the Cats would 3/94 of 40 overs with the game evenly balanced. play regardless as a win was the only result that After tea Rowdy bowled well without much luck could keep our chances alive for finals. Both and the Grasshopper was doing the job however Flash Mal Ayliffe and CJ Craig Jervies opened up Payneham were beginning to take control moving the and very quickly we knew this would the score along to 122 with steady rain falling be a very tough day. The ball was popping and making it hard for the Cats bowlers and fielders. keeping low of the same length meaning that We turned to our Dark Arabian Leo Panzarino for even when Payneham bowled a bad ball you some answers who started to put the screws on could not play with any confidence. We lost both the Payneham batters with his straight breaks. openers caught due to the pitch with the ball Rowdy picked up a valuable wicket caught behind sitting up with the score on 16 and 19 (luckily Browny hadn’t downed tools and was respectively.

Speedster Bucko replaced Rowdy and had determination and controlled aggression to their young left hander caught down legside as gradually begin to get on top of their bowlers. the batsmen began to walk of however after Nick blasted balls over the top and Adam hit the stopping and seeing that his mate didn’t put the gaps to rotate the strike with both guys keeping finger up he remained at the crease.

First ball he was gone caught at heated moments then ensured with Bucko fired second slip leaving the Cats 4/82 of 32 overs. up and bowling some of the quickest delivers Rowdy joined Adam and took us to tea 4/87 of 40 faced this year. He could easily have had 3 overs with the game evenly balanced. Straight wickets in this spell had any LBW decision been after tea we lost Rowdy leaving us 5/90 with given or the batsmen been good enough to get Payneham gradually getting on top. Browny was near the ball. Our Dark Arabian was also fired up next to go after trying to turn 1 run into 2 and and got the justified wicket with a rash being runout at the keepers end leaving the Cats attempted slog and Down Tools Browny took care 6/101 of 54 overs. We batted very deep and with of the stumping. Panz at the crease joining Orbie we were still a Panz was in fine bowling form and had another huge chance. Some interesting running between opportunity for a wicket with an edged ball flying the wickets from both guys as Panz wanted to to Chainsaw at behind point, our opening face the spinner but couldn’t get down the speedster wasn’t happy giving Panz the 10 points strikers end and Orbie move comfortable against for a wicket so he elected to pull out of the catch the Payneham pace. Unfortunately at 110 Panz however was quick enough to ping the ball back miss hit a to cover leaving us still 37 runs into Browny for a (very reminiscent of away for victory with 3 wickets in hand. With Modbury 2 years ago!!!!). Payneham had slumped Orbie going nicely we still had great confidence to 6/149 of 67 overs as Chainsaw was brought however we lost Chainsaw straight away leaving back into the attack and along with Panz really the two young kids to do the job with Bucko put the brakes on the Payneham lower order. joining The Rash. Bucko who was elevated from They bowled out the last 4 batsmen without them number 11 timed the ball nicely and played a few scoring with Panz taking a skied caught and shots forcing Payneham to protect the bowled then knocking the stumps over and boundaries. At 8/135 we were only 20 runs away Chainsaw bowling straight and direct hitting the before Orbie’s terrific innings ended caught wickets twice to leave the top side Payneham all behind for a terrific 43 would displayed true grit out 156 in the 74th over. All bowlers and fielders and determination when more senior players fell were terrific with the standout our Dark Arabian by the way side. With one wicket left and 20 3/10 of 14 overs. Stumps were pulled as the Cats required the Grasshopper and Bucko were up looked to chase down a very modest total. against it with Bucko finally falling for a handy 19 to a skied ball leaving the Cats all out 140, 17 runs away ending their finals chances. It was tough day of cricket on and off the field with 8 of our 10 wickets falling to catches (unusual when you only make 140 of 74 overs)

Yet again we have shown we catch match it with any side with ball in hand however when it comes to that wooden thing we have struggled to put runs on the board when it mattered most. Its time for each one of us to stand up with the bat!!!! NEXT ROUND - 9

Puzzling Thoughts with Miller

The shorter the shorts the better, and vibrant colours are always a must…. Dark colours What happens to golf ball once it goes into were soo 2009

How does it work? Guess who this is?

Why do they call a fly a fly?????

If you can pick who this Walkerville player is Kym Reid will let the winner roll around naked in a large pile of money in his banks vault.

Remember when you play a forward defensive shot get forward.

Man of Mystery, Dan Powell Daniel Powell has resorted to classic psychology to regain his mysterious reputation and keep attention squarely on him…He used the old engage them and then ignore them technique. All by attending club functions and training and now returning to his old ways of ‘mysterious’ absents. Classic Powelly!!

Batting Tips with Matho When I cut the ball to the fence I don’t need to move my feet, I have great hand eye co- ordination

This is my classic leg glance to fine leg. I generally get four with this one!

No it is multi time: 1st leg we look towards the NBA All*Star game this weekend and we are going for value early with Kobe Bryant paying $5

2nd leg have the Adelaide Reds at home in their semi final against Wellington, though a paltry $1.58 it just adds value to the multi!

3rd and final we venture to the FA Cup and I like Stoke @ $1.60 to get over Brighton (only cause everyone likes beating This is my run the ball past second slip shot. A Brighton!) very good in one day games. BEST BETS WITH CJ So for your $5 multi (after putting $5 on each leg above) you will reap the rewards with $63, very handy after a BIG night at Seafood Night

People just remember: "There is no adventure in heads or tails" just ask Millsy!!!
