Last game of the season on Saturday, which I missed because of other commitments…work.
Sara was in attendance to watch the lads soundly beat the oppo who apparently had a concentration problem. Maybe straight out of the local ADHD school?
Joe took a wicket and bowled well it appears. I put it down to sound discussion of bowling techniques with Dad prior to the off.
The game played in mixed weather conditions, after the Friday was gorgeous 28C and wall to wall sunshine.
Final season figures;33 overs, 5 maidens, 7 for 119, with average of 17 and economy of 3.6, plus his 3 wickets in Hastings tournament.
batting: balls 124, runs 5o, average 6.25, at 40/100 balls. Catches 3.
So to Sunday with first meet up and practice run for his rugby team. There were quite a few familiar faces, and familiar lack of fitness. They were soundly beaten by another Western Suburbs team. So apparently there is plenty to work on during trasining this week. Joe also has scrummaging training this week! They are allowed to push this year, but only 0.5 metres.
Joe will be in intensive fitness and skills training around the streets of Khandallah before the official start of the season.
