Red ball cricket returned for the 1s boys as the season continues to roll along.
After a dominating performance with bat and ball last week, our boys could be excused for taking the foot off the pedal a touch this week against the winless Highton. But to our guys credit, they turned up hunting 6 points and the song and that's exactly what they got. Losing the toss and having to bowl, Highton got off to a reasonable start thanks to some uncontrollable bowling with the new red ball. Appsy was at his best again as he got the day rolling with a wicket, caught by Alistair. Alistair would grab the 2nd wicket of the day before Highton would make a comeback. When Appsy was re introduced the game shifted back in our favour and then Tom was sent into work. He picked up 1 and then his 2nd scalp meant that he had 300 wickets for the club. His 3rd wicket came from a brilliant delivery and on the last ball of the innings, his 4th wicket also signalled his 300th GCA Div 1 1st XI dismissal as Highton finished 8/166.
In reply our openers started calmly before an unlucky runout seen Sam's day end early. Curtly came and recieved a peach of a delivery for his troubles. That brought Layton to the crease as he and Ned set about the victory. On 14 Layton fell and Cossie came and went leaving the job up to Ned and his fellow ex Anglesea team mate Dale to pick up the pieces. The pair put on an unbeaten 98 run partnership off just 97 balls. Ned finishing unbeaten on 82 and Dale 55 as the guys go 7 and a draw and move 2 games clear of 3rd spot.
Another side that could have really put a gap on the field was the 2nds. A Top 2 spot could have really been cemented with a win on Saturday, however a mid order batting collapse turned the game dramatically. Bowling first, if the guys thought a repeat of last weekend was on the cards, they were sadly wrong. Highton raced out to 0/75 off just 12 overs before skipper Grant Armistead inserted himself into the game. Grant has been fairly unselfish when it comes to his bowlers this year but on Saturday he took it upon himself to bring the guys back into the game. Ajay Mada picked up a big scalp as Grant grabbed another 2 wickets to drag the boys back into the contest. When Hangers was on a hat trick the boys were back on top. Hangers picked up 1 more as Highton finished 7/199. With the bat Casey's 37 looked to set up the win. Brissle continued his nice run of form with 51 but once they both fell the middle orders lack of centre wicket batting was on show as we lost 7/46 and the game was all but done. Grant fought hard at the end to get the guys within reach requiring 4 to win off 7 balls but it wasn't to be as Mang fell lbw, leaving Grant stranded.
The 3rd XI went down in a close game as well, making their run for a finals birth extremely difficult now. Bowling first, Hightons openers threw everything they had at our attack. Lachy Hayes bended his back and even his best wasn't enough to begin with. Highton raced to 60 before Lachy finally got a breakthrough, when Braden Szponar grabbed 2 wickets the game was back on even playing field and our boys kept searching for a way in. All the bowlers continued to pepper the Highton bats and Birchy was best rewarded as he picked up 3 late wickets to restrict Highton to all out for 185. Sometimes things click with the bat and sometimes they don't, Smithy's 50 last week looks like its finally got him going this season. He turned his 50 into 76 this week although none of his top order could bat with him. Lachy Hayes batting at 8 had the chance to win the guys the game but the task was too much and the guys fell 18 runs short.
The 4ths continue to go from strength to strength with their 3rd consecutive win in a row. Jonny Kelly was the star with both bat and ball, the 18 year old made his first senior 100 with a really mature knock. Batting first our guys started roughly and at 4/38 were staring down at an early day. Jonny and young Harvey set about rebuilding the innings. Jonny played the senior role well and carved up the Highton attack as the pair put on exactly 100 before Harvs fell. Jonny continued on and brought up his 3 figures as we finished all out for 182. Like the last few weeks its taken the entire bowling line up to complete the job for the boys, all bowlers once again chipped in to help with Jonny Kelly backing up his efforts with the bat to grab 2 wickets whilst Col also grabbed 2 and Darcy O'Brien 3. Highton had no answers to the 3 pronged spin attack as they were all out for 135.
The 5ths boys were hunting 2 wins in a row hosting Highton. It was a tight game last time we played them and this game appeared to be no different. Batting first our top order struggled and it wasn't until Teddie and Robbo came together, that the score started ticking over. Robbo brought up his best score with 21 before Automan did the same. Jordan has been a mainstay in the 5ths this year and it's good to see him getting rewarded for his efforts. His 33 top scored in our score of 9/142. Wickets were hard to come by early but Teddie Sherwin backed up his batting with the ball and claimed 3 wickets to drag the boys back into the contest. Wardy bowled tight and the game was going down to the wire. At 8/106 we were definitely in control with only 2 wickets required, however the break through never came and the Highton tailed wagged themselves to victory with 8 balls to spare.
On Sunday it was a Super day for the girls on and off the park. For the first time ever we had all 3 girls grades playing at home. The A Grade girls, out on the turf, did their thing and did it well. Chloe Smith lead the way with bat in hand as she made a brilliant 58. She was desperately running out of partners as no other girl made it to double figures. Eventually Chloe would be the last bat dismissed as our girls made 131 from 28.5 overs. The game was quickly put to bed with opening bowlers Jordyn Stewart and Brodie Mitchell on target early. The girls ran thru the Ocean Grove top order and with very little resilience from the Ocean Grove bats they were soon bowled out for just 47 runs, Jordyn top wicket taker with 3/13 from 4.2 overs.
The B Grade didn't have it all their own way but similar to the A Grade, they fought and fought until they found a way to win. Norz lead the way with bat in hand as she was well supported by Georgia Brajkovic. Normally opening, Georgia found herself down the order this week and still played the team game before being run out for 22. Their score of 127 looked alright, but they needed to bowl well and bowl well they did. Tash Millard had a few breakout games last year but none bigger than this one, her 6 overs going conceding just 19 runs as she picked up 3 wickets along the way. Heidi Windt's stump to stump bowling saw her pick up 2 wickets to all but end Highton chances of victory.
The E Grade took just over an hour to wrap up their last game of the season before finals. Bowling first they stretched Banno to what must be close to a record low. Melrod and Haylea both picked up 2 wickets. The score of 14 was easy to chase, and our girls did it in just 4 overs with 13 extras to boot. The girls now line up in their first round of finals in a few weeks time with their opposition unknown at this point.
So, with only 5 club championship points banked this week, it opens things up for a big few weeks, starting with Grovedale next week. Speaking of Grovedale, we played them in our 1st T20 game last Tuesday Night, bowling first Alistair stood in as skipper and did a fine job with leading the side and with ball in hand. We restricted Grovedale to 7/113 a score that we struggled with. Similar to Grovey we were in trouble early at 3/8. Alistair Blake and Hangers all chipped in and got the chase back on track however a few unnecessary wickets left the job up to Hayesy and Webby. Webster played with a cool head and Hayes hit the straight gaps nicely. Webby fell leaving us 9 runs still required which Hayes and Bagga snuck us home with 4 balls to spare and sending us into the 2nd round to play against Geelong City next Tuesday Night.
This Sunday is our Major Raffle for the year, it's been 3 years since we've held one due to Covid so hopefully this one will be huge for the club. Following that we have our Team of the 2000s Night which also looms as a big night for the club. Not quite finished there as Ladies Day follows that on Feb 18 and to round things out we've got our past players and supporters day on March 4th. A massive month coming up for the club!!!

Cricket returned for the first time in 2023 and the club got off to the best possible start winning 6 out of 7 games of senior cricket over the weekend, including 5 huge wins over Lara.
The 1s have gone a game and percentage clear on top with a huge win over Lara. Batting first our guys raced to 70 before losing Ned. Sam was at his best clearing the fence on 4 occasions and brought up his 50 off just 25 balls. He tried to clear the fence one too many times and was dismissed for 63. Things didn't stop there tho as Curtly continued on his stellar form, his 65 backboned the innings before a late 54 run partnership from Tom and Appsy seen our score tick over 8/283, Tom finishing 48 not out.
Appsy continued to impress on debut, this time in his usual habitat with ball in hand, the opening bowler looked right at home as he ripped through the Lara top order. He was well supported by Dale at the other end as Lara were floored at 4/18. That soon became 5/22 when Tom played his role. His 4 overs going for 0 runs whilst picking up the 1 wicket. From there it was over to the slowies to finish the game off as Bagga picked up 2 wickets and Alistair 1 along with a run out. Lara were all out for 67.
67 wasn't the lowest score of the weekend as Tom Webster and the 2s boys really put on a show for Mango's 300th game. Winning the toss and bowling first, Skipper Grant smelt blood in the water and Webby delivered early. The big quick wripped through Lara with 6 quick wickets. He was well supported at the other end by Ajay who picked up 3 as Lara were in deep strife at 9/27. In his 300th game it would be cruel for Mang not to get a bowl so he was introduced with immediate impact as he picked up the last wicket and Lara were all out for 30. Our guys didnt muck around in the chase taking just 24 balls to knock off the tally. Casey Meehan finishing 18 not out.
The 3s hopped back onto the winners list with a comprehensive win similar to the 1s. Batting first the top order got the job done with skipper Smithy finding himself back at the top. His 51 set the tone for the innings before his partner Will Hall found his groove. He was well supported by Sam Mellington as he too brought up a half century. Will would fall for 79 as the guys raced past 200. Nearing the end of the innings, Fred Lucas played the perfect Cameo role and even took the last over for 24 runs to finish unbeaten on 47 and the score to 7/291. Similar to other grades, early wickets were a feature with Az Beecroft and Hayesy starting the innings well. Birchy and Will Hall chipped in but it wasn't until Benny Demasi had the ball that the game advanced really quickly. Benny picked up 4/9 in 4.2 overs to run thru the Lara lower order and have them all out for 76.
The 4ths made it 2 in a row on the back of a strong batting performance. Openers Jeff and Dave Murphy got the boys off to the ideal start reaching 109 without loss, unfortunately they both fell in quick succession after that however the platform was laid. Jeff fell for 66 whilst Murph made 37 before a middle order collapse. Mitch Elliott kept things ticking over as the guys passed 200. Mitch, Col and Darcy O'Brien ended the innings well as the boys finished with 8/228. Josh Rhodes and Aarav Jain made sure the score was enough as both openers picked up wickets early. Like other grades Lara were 4/19 and staring down at a low score and just like the other grades that happened, as support bowlers Jonny Kelly, Darcy O'Brien and Will Demasi didn't let Lara back in the game. Jonny would finish with 3 late wickets as Lara were all out for just 72.
The 5ths made it 5 from 5 for the weekend and picked up their first win along the way. The blue print for the weekend was to bat first and put on a big score and they did just that with Danny Tielens, Bivy and Ethan Cook all bringing up 50s. Not only did the 3 guys all retire but they had plenty of support from other bats including Jordan Automan Bews with 31, Carree retiring hurt with 25 and Kobie Milsome also getting 25. The side made 6/290 before a team bowling effort seen them reduce Lara to just 82 with the bat. Rylie Ward picked up 2 wickets whilst all other bowlers grabbed 1 to get the guys their first win of the year.
The A grade girls continued on where the men left off Saturday with a commanding victory against South Barwon. We owed South Barwon one after they got the better of us earlier in the year and the girls did it in style. Batting first openers Sophie Walker and Chloe Smith did it alone, batting the entire 20 overs, compiling 0/90, Chloe 41 and Sophie 31. In reply Brodie Mitchell didn't allow South to make any inroads on the total with her stump to stump bowling. She picked up 3 early wickets before Chelsea Reid and Maggie Schaller put the clamps on. Chelsea picked up the incredible figures of 1/1 from her 4 overs as the girls ran out winners by 38 runs setting up a big game against Ocean Grove next Sunday Afternoon.
Sadly the only loss this weekend came in the E Grade albeit after our girls put a competitive score on the board. Batting first our girls made 5/87 thanks to a smashing 30 from Melrod. With 88 to win our girls would have thought they were well and truly in the contest, however Armstrong Creek had other plans and passed our total only losing the 1 wicket. Kirralee Lewis was the sole wicket taker as the girls only have 1 home and away game remaining before finals start.
So 10 massive points jumps into our club championship tally as we continue to sit on top. Next week we take on the bottom placed Highton as we look to repeat this weekend all over again. Before that, Tuesday Night we look to finally get our first T20 game underway, after 4 cancellations and restarts, Tuesday albeit looks hot but it looks set to go ahead. The side to take on Grovedale for that game is T.Mathieson (c), A.McCann (vc) N.Cooper, B.Troy, C.Balshaw, D.Kerr, C.Hangan, T.Webster, P.Visentin (wk) L.Hayes, T.Bagg. Bar will be open and BBQ will be firing, come support the boys.
The Social Calendar is choc a block now with a huge run to the end of the season. Next Sunday we have our women's Super Sunday with all 3 female sides playing at home. The following Sunday sees the return of our Reverse Raffle and that then leads into a huge February where we have The Team of the 2000s and then Ladies Day as well. Stay tuned to the socials for all the advertising around these big days/nights.

The site is ready for an E-organisation with industry knowledge to take over and develop the earning potential the site was originally set up for. I currently don’t have the time to check over the site for updates or the knowledge to introduce the site to the e-trading/advertising world.
If you’re into the IT market then this site could be for you. The site comes with 3 active Facebook pages being https://www.facebook.com/sportingscribecom-123129801204567/, https://www.facebook.com/Sporting-Scribe-Muscle-540044642763490/?ref=hl, https://www.facebook.com/sportingscribe/, an active YouTube account https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFVflUoG8qE90HOnhisZ6Wg as well as registered Twitter and Instagram accounts. There is also a Quick Sports check box, a Regional Sports News checkbox as well as a Facebook news service. A Women in Sport stand-alone section is also included on the site with provision for signing up sporting clubs, advertising on the site and an online shop provided.
All the hard work is done with the site ready for an expert to develop the earning potential.
