It was interesting to observe that there were just three drawn matches amongst the nine for the round in the grade, suggesting that, in general, a positive approach to the cricket was applied by captains. In this issue, I am pleased to bring you introductory “Bios” to a further two new panel members, Ashfaq Ali and Valli Selvaraj. Ashfaq also features in the report on the social cricket match against the Australian Cricket Society, which for this issue, has become the ongoing column, “The 2019 Crockett Shield Mission Continues.” Many thanks to John Richards for this report and to Damian Herft for the accompanying pictures. There remain just two more new panel members to introduce to readers, and I hope to be able to do this in the December issue. This month it is again the turn of President, Alan McCarthy, for that regular column, while Jason Leonard-Scott, in his column, has given readers a “ball-by-ball” summary of his recent trip to Auckland to take part in a Professional Development and Information Sharing seminar with New Zealand colleagues. One should add, “Welcome back, Jason,” after such eventful flights to Auckland and back! The recent Cup Day BBQ was certainly enjoyed by those who braved the inclement weather on Cup Day to drive to Princes Park while the rain pelted down, in order to meet the new panel members who attended, to socialize with both young and old members present, to partake of the food and drink available and to part with a few hard-earned dollars on the sweeps. The report for this year, which does contain the results of the sweeps, is mostly a pictorial one, thanks to the photography of Will Downey. Then follow two articles, the first from Mattis van Eck who was chosen to officiate in the Cricket Australia (CA) National Under-17 Carnival, held recently in Queensland, with some initial matches being played in Mackay and the remainder in Brisbane. For the second, I must acknowledge, firstly, the CA Umpiring Department for most of the text which I have been given permission to reproduce concerning Geoff Joshua’s umpiring career which at the time of the report, had reached its 50th First- Class match. Secondly, I must acknowledge AAP for the picture accompanying this article, which is featured on the front cover of this issue. I am very pleased to acknowledge a new contributor to our regular column, “Macca’s Book Review”, and hope that Eric Kelly’s review of a recent book which he has found interesting, might encourage any other readers of books who also read each issue of Law 43, to “put pen to paper” or “fingers to the key board” and submit a review of a book you have read recently. Finally, I urge all readers interested in our Association activities to take note of the updated, back- page Calendar and note on-going events in your diaries Trevor Finlayson ----------------------------------------------------- Volume 25 Number 3 2018-2019 Page 3 … AND THE PRESIDENT – PRESIDENTIAL MUSINGS Warm weather greeted the start of the season and my colleague and I dealt with a very large and undisciplined dog at Prahran that invaded the field of play for 12 minutes. (See “The Hound of Prahran (with apologies to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Paul Wellbourn”, Law 43, Vol. 25, No. 2, p. 14, if you missed the tale.) The owner had less control than the Australian middle order facing spin in Dubai. Just as well we are all wearing black outfits – our period of mourning may be about to commence. More importantly, the Melbourne Cup Day Barbecue at the Carlton Cricket Club was our first function of the season. Despite the torrential rain in the morning which not only drenched a number of well-dressed ladies frequenting the bird- cage at Flemington, but prevented the attendance at the BBQ for a few who had previously signed up and had been catered for, those who braved the weather appeared to enjoy themselves. Indeed, it was pleasing to be able to welcome not only the regulars, but also some new panel members and two older life members and their respective partners. To prepare for our defence of the Crockett Shield at Easter 2019 we played the Australian Cricket Society (ACS) at Caulfield Park on Sunday 4th November. This proved to be a very pleasant day, consistent with all previous encounters with the ACS. A full report on the match appears elsewhere in this issue. While the ACS proved to be the better team on the day, it was pleasing to see first- hand the cricketing potential of the new panel members who were available. Members who were unavailable on this occasion should take note that selection for the VCAUSA team for next Easter could be quite competitive. For those interested in playing against the SACUSA team next Easter, please take note of forthcoming plans for both practice sessions and further social cricket matches. Check out the calendar in Law 43 and on the VCAUSA website for opportunities to support your Association and remember – if you attend functions you reap the benefits of membership and you get to know umpires from across the panel – 1sts to 4ths - with experience in both Men’s and Women’s competitions. And to finish with a quote as usual – this time from Scottish comedian Billy Connolly married to Australian Pamela Stephenson – “…acting your age is deeply over-rated. Acting your age is about as sensible as acting your street number.” Don’t forget to have fun along the journey. Alan McCarthy ----------------------------------------------------- A QUOTABLE QUOTE “I must point out that my rule of life prescribes as an absolutely sacred rite, smoking cigars and also the drinking of alcohol before, after, and, if need be, during all meals and in the intervals between them.” [To Arab Leader, Ibn Saud, upon being told the King’s religious beliefs forbade the use of tobacco and liquor.] (from The Quotable Winston Churchill - A Collection of Wit and Wisdom ISBN9780-7624-4983-5 (Running Press, Philadelphia, PA, 2013) p. 49) ------------------------------------------------------ Volume 25 Number 3 2018-2019 Page 4 FROM THE DESK OF THE UMPIRE & COACH EDUCATION MANAGER A couple of months ago an opportunity arose for me to attend a Professional Development and Information Sharing seminar in Auckland, New Zealand. As most of you would know, I attended this series of meetings last weekend and early this week. The following is a reflection on the time spent over the ditch and how it will benefit both Auckland Cricket and Cricket Victoria. I boarded QF157 bound for Auckland on Friday night, scheduled for departure at 23:35. We pushed back on time and were airborne in a flash. It was a beautiful five minutes of flight until the very large bang and almost instantaneous rolling back of the engines on the Airbus 330.

Trump greeted May himself upon her arrival at the White House. The pair were to meet in the Oval Office before a joint press conference at roughly 1800 GMT before a working lunch. May’s trip is part influence campaign and part charm offensive. She is expected to give Trump an engraved quaich-a ceremonial cup exchanged by Scottish highland chiefs-in a nod to Trump’s Scottish ancestry. His mother was born on the island of Lewis. For First Lady Melania Trump, May will gift a hamper of apple juice, damson plum jam, marmalade, Bakewell tarts and cran- berry and white chocolate shortbread cookies. The meeting was to be a pivotal moment in trans-Atlantic relations, which have been rocked by Trump’s election and his willingness to rethink NATO, the UN and other foundation blocks of the liberal world order. Meanwhile, the president is expected to order up a new plan for defeating the Islamic State group with expanded US military involvement as he makes his first visit to the Pentagon later.
