Can't overstate how brilliant Cribb has been this season. So many years in the wilderness, struggling to establish a decent career in FC or OD cricket, and his hard work has now paid off. Five hundreds! Top class. Shame the bowling hasn't come along though.
Thanks for the wrap. I thought I'd do better with the ball this season after being given more of a chance there, especially given how much I dominated in that department in Grade cricket last season. It hasn't really happened at all, but I've been amazingly (and very pleasantly, obviously) surprised with my batting this season. I've really stepped up.

Had a pretty horrible season with the bat, really. OD bowling has been very nice, but I have no idea where my batting form from the off-season with Tasmania went.

Lucky we've had Young step up again, as well as guys like Cribb.

good luck everyone in the next one day match!!!

Everyone, be roaring to go for the final FC match v Black on our turf. Massive game for us, and for Black. We need to be on the top of our game to finish on top. Nothing short of 130%, please.

Had a pretty dismal season myself, think I'm physically incapable of taking more than three wickets in an innings. Nothing to speak of OD-wise obviously. Hopefully I can overcome my wicket phobia in the next FC game though.

Congratulations to everyone over the season! Now to the FC final! ..... Also, hope we make the OD final! That would be doubley swell!

Cheers Zac.

Great stuff this season guys, I can't say I was that optimistic at the start of the season, but we've played some top cricket throughout, and well, we've got ourselves at the top of the table. Now to win the final.

Yes, most excellent lads.

Guys like, Pete, Thamba and Cribby have had most awseome years with the bat!

Also, personally, I think if I take 7 wickets in the final i'll break 100 wickets for the season :D

Quality season from everyone involved, final game was a must-perform and we did and this is reward for a pretty consistent season. Pity OD has tailed off a little but FC was always more important to me. :)

Nope. We haven't won a FC title since Season IX. We did, however, win the Manuel Ramprakash Challenge Trophy in Season X.

This FC Title breaks CW Black's run. They'd won the last two and were going for the three-peat. Now we've surpassed them as having won the title more than any other Dev League team - 3 times to their 2.

Jack Ullungura will not play in the final, unless he can prove he is active before then. Instead, either Ben Wilshere or Rob Bowen will take his place, batting at three as well.

Bowen isn't active anymore either - he's moved and doesn't have access to a computer at present and probably won't for a while.

Bummer. He was a top batsman. I hope I can do well enough to fill his shoes, assuming I get picked of course.
