NO LONGER THE BRIDESMAID

A RECOUNT OF THE HISTORIC 2021-22 SEASON- WRITTEN BY JOHN HISCOX

As the oldest club member still active, now as a spectator, I have been around for over 75 years of our first-grade history of 101 seasons. Of course, we had 13 years of sub-district cricket (2nd and 3rd grades) before that until we were given full status.

When we entered the first-grade era in 1921/22 we care cond, not a bad start, and since then we won four premierships in the 1930s before finds are introduced le, first past the post. Then, minor premiers twice and beaten in the find lowed by three other finals but not succeeding to annex the Cup. As recompense we wold hie Limited Overs 50 final in 2008/9.

So how was the vibe as we commenced 2021/22 with basically the same players as the previous year when we came 14th. There is a proverb that says “bowlers win matches” and to some extent this may be the reason for this year’s success. Although Jake Turner and Elijah plaved a few games last season they both suffered with injury problems, but this year playing nearly all games they combined to take 33 wickets each. And Matt Moran and Dean Crawford should not be overlooked with 30 and 29 respectively.

Come the big day. Northern District were minor premiers and had beaten us during the season, putting us into second place. We batted first with a rain delayed start but ending the day at 8/190. Not very promising but at least Lachie was still in and Craw knew how to hang around and hit the loose ball. The partnership flourished until Craw succumbed for 46 leaving Jake to hang in there with Lachie. Jake did this for a valuable 2, but was stranded there as Lachie was dismissed for 144. The score was exactly 300, but was it enough as ND had a strong batting lineup.

Day 2 ended with ND being 4/120, Jake having two of the wickets and adding another immediately the next day; 5/131 so game on. I will leave first grade temporarily because we mustn’t forget the seconds, who played yesterday.

Their 50 over final was against Sutherland and at the end of our allotted 50 overs the score Was 9/217 – Ash Doolan 49 and Hugo Farquharson 45 – not a big total. Sutherland started reasonably, but at 2/115 they lost 3 for 3 to put us back in the game. Then a partnership off put them back in contention, but they ran out of steam at 9/212. A win is a win, if only buS runs. Second grade can now boast of winning 6 premierships.
Back to Bankstown Ova where NDs is digging in. There doesn’t seem to be an effort to wind and? wil give them the premiership. As an example, leyden Park bowled 51 overs orSSio and ? wickets After another 60 odd runs, another wicket, with runs coming slowly and id wicket here and there. With the score at 9/279 and about 5 overs to go till stumps, the in form batsman tries to keep the strike and fails, so it’s all over. Premiers.

Now a quick look at the season. I divided my time between firsts and seconds as I couldn’t be bothered running around Sydney anymore and so took up permanent residence at Allan Border Oval (nee Mosman Oval). The grandstand was down and huts were used for dressing sheds, scorers’ accommodation and toilets, and as it was a very wet season the ground around these structures was mud. If I can call lan Finlay an oldie, then he Bob Guthrie and I were the principal supporters, as well as players’ relatives of course.

It’s hard to make comparisons from one year to the next, but there were some very lopsided results in firsts, with many of our players not getting a bat in the days before Xmas. I well remember, not so many moons ago, some officials of newer clubs calling for our demise as the demographics of the population was moving westward and that some of the inner-city clubs were becoming redundant. So, season 2021/22 saw Campbelltown, Fairfield, Penrith, Blacktown and Hawkesbury, 5 of the newer clubs and all in the outer suburbs filling the last 5 places in the club championship and 4 of them also doing so in first grade. As a contrast, ND, Manly and us filled the top 3 spots in the club championship and in 2nd and 5th grades four of the top six were northsiders. How the worm turns!

Let’s hope next season will not be a letdown and that we can be up there again.

Finally, the person who took the most wickets and made the most runs for the season was Toni Lorraine.
