question
Q: Sutherland defeated Sydney University in the final under lights at the SCG to win the T20 premiership. This is the report that was posted on the club website the following day:
Our boys played great cricket to carry off the Kingsgrove Sports T20 Cup at the SCG last night – the only competition that we had not previously won. Disciplined bowling and fielding ensured that we strangled the opposition batting in both matches, thus enabling comfortable run chases both times.

Q: Sutherland District Cricket Club - 4th Grade Premiers in inaugural season 1965-66
In the Club’s first season 1965-66, the youthful 4th Grade team, well led by experienced off-spinner Ross Longbottom, won the premiership in an incredible final at Sutherland Oval. The star of the final was 15-year-old pace bowler Paul Lennon, who took 9-19 off 10.3 overs, as Central Cumberland were routed for just 43. Sutherland replied with 6/67 before the match was called off with Sutherland premiers. It was a fourth consecutive 4th Grade premiership for 46-year-old Longbottom, who had captained St.George to premierships in 1962-63, 1963-64 & 1964-65.

Q: Steve Edmonds is best known for playing 113 first grade matches for Cronulla-Sutherland between 1972 and 1981, mostly as a winger, including the 1978 grand final and grand final replay against Manly-Warringah. One of his best matches was at the SCG in 1977 when he scored 3 tries on the wing in a 37-10 win against Newtown..
As a junior cricketer, Steve accumulated an outstanding record as a pace bowler for Sutherland, taking 234 wickets in 81 matches between 1966-67 and 1970-71, when he stopped playing cricket to concentrate on his rugby league career.

Q: In the winter of 2015, Daniel Rixon broke his thumb playing Aussie Rules for St.George. As a result, he missed the start of the 2015-16 season as he waited for the injury to recover. In order to prove his fitness to resume in 1st Grade, he came back through 2nd Grade in Round 6 vs Hawkesbury at Owen Earle Oval. At the time, he had played 261 matches for Sutherland, including 221 in 1sts, with a highest score of 95, made in 1sts the previous season.
He certainly proved that he had fully recovered from his thumb injury, opening the batting and smashing a club record score for 2nd Grade with 272 off 248 balls

question
Q: Sam Konstas has completed a remarkable double in the current Sheffield Shield match against South Australia at Cricket Central. After recording his maiden first class century in the first innings with 152 (241 balls, 13 fours & 4 sixes), he scored his second century for the match in the second innings. In scoring 105 (225 balls, 7 fours & 1 six) at the age of 19 years 8 days, he became the youngest Australian player since Ricky Ponting to score a century in each innings of a Sheffield Shield match. Ponting did it at the age of 18 years 85 days in 1992-93. The only other player younger than Sam to score a century in each innings of a Sheffield Shield match was Archie Jackson, aged 18 years 124 days, in 1927-28. One other Australian player has scored a century in each innings of any first class match – Arthur Morris at the age of 18 years 344 days in his first class debut in 1940-41.
Sam has now scored 22 centuries in Sheffield Shield, Australian & NSW Under 19 matches and Premier Cricket. This includes centuries in 1st to 5th Grades, 1st Grade Limited Overs, Poidevin-Gray Shield & AW Green Shield – believed to be the only player to have achieved this feat.

Q: Julia Coote, Sutherland's long-standing first grade scorer, passed away on Thursday morning. Club historian Tom Iceton posted this obituary on the Sutherland website last night:
It is with a very heavy heart that I write these words from the other side of the world. It is my very sad duty to advise that Julia Coote passed away peacefully this morning after a battle with cancer. It is now over 10 months since we were advised of Jules’ diagnosis, which we passed on to the SDCC community at that time. Jules carried on her life over the last 10 months with a stoic attitude and cheerful disposition, accepting of her fate but not consumed by it.

Q: Shane Watson played a quite extraordinary innings at Allan Border Oval in the Sixers Conference T20 semi-final today. Chasing Mosman’s 8/150 off 20 overs, Sutherland cruised to victory with 22 balls to spare, as they made 2/156 off 16.2 overs. Shane spearheaded the run-chase with 114 not out off 53 balls, with a remarkable 16 sixes and one four – 100 runs in boundaries. He shared a first wicket partnership of 149 with Jarryd Biviano, who was unluckily out for 36 off 35 balls with only two runs needed for victory. Shane hit the first ball of the innings for four and was 4 runs off his first 7 balls. He then scored 110 runs off his next 46 balls, including the 16 sixes, meaning he averaged a six every three balls!

Q: In the Club’s early seasons, we fielded teams in the “A” and “B” Grade competitions of what was known as the Municipal & Shires competition (now Shires). On 3 February 1968, the “B” Shires team played Ryde at Sutherland Oval in a one-day match. Captain Max Silva won the toss and sent Ryde in to bat. Young tearaway pace bowler Paul McCann was making his debut for the club and had a strong southerly at his back. However, it was the gentle medium pace of Geoff Glover that bamboozled the Ryde batsmen. Hooping his inswingers into the strong breeze, he was nearly unplayable as he took 8-6 off 4.7 overs.

Q: The third player to achieve scoring a century and taking five wickets in an innings in the same match was Sutherland’s Ted Cotton, in the Round 13 versus Western Suburbs at Caringbah Oval on 7th & 14th February 1970, finishing the match aged 40 years & 190 days. It was a match that was significant for more than just Ted’s all-round performance – in the Wests innings on day two, former Australian captain Bob Simpson made the highest score ever made at Caringbah/Glenn McGrath Oval.

Q: Vale Alan Griffiths
It is with great regret that we advise that Alan Griffiths, 1st Grade player #40, passed away on 5th December 2023 after a battle with cancer. He was aged 75. Alan played six seasons for the Club, being a foundation player in 1965-66. He played 97 matches between 1965-66 and 1970-71, scoring 3071 runs at an average of 24.2, with four centuries. He also took 69 catches. In first grade, he scored 820 runs in 31 matches at an average of 21.0, with a highest score of 102. His century was scored opening the batting against Bankstown, whose opening bowlers were Jeff Thomson and Len Pascoe! He was a member of the 4th Grade premiership team in 1967-68 and the 1st Grade Rothmans Limited Overs Knockout premiership team in 1969-70. Some comments in annual reports about Alan included:
1965-66 “B” Shires (6th Grade):
“Outstanding features of the season’s play included the aggressive right-handed batting of Alan Griffiths, who scored 392 runs” (including his highest score for the Club of 146no).
1967-68 4th Grade:
“Alan Griffiths’ aggregate of 431 runs was a fitting reward for consistent batting, while his energy and anticipation in the field saved many runs.”
1968-69 3rd Grade:
“Alan Griffiths, who scored a fine century, showed much improved technique and earned promotion.”
1969-70 1st Grade:
“Opener Alan Griffiths showed determination of high order and was a most consistent runmaker in his first season in the major grade. He was also an inspiration in the field with superb exhibitions at times.”
Alan was an outstanding sportsman. He finished his career with SDCC at the age of 22 to pursue his soccer career. He played for Sutherland and then Marconi in the National Soccer League. His three sons, Adam, Joel & Ryan, all played for the Socceroos.
We extend our sincere condolences to his wife Leonie, his sons Adam, Joel & Ryan and daughter Ranae, and their families.

Q: David Niu joined Sutherland Districted Cricket Club from St George and made his first grade debut for the club on 29 September 1984. He is the proud owner of first grade playing number 125.
An all-round cricket with immense talent David had represented NSW Under 16s and 19s. He was a tremendously gifted rugby union and league player and for many years David’s contribution to sport especially in the USA in significant.
Who was the best wicket keeper you’ve seen firsthand playing with or against?
Andrew Millican was our wicket keeper through all our junior and state age grade teams. We were St George team mates until Green Shield, when David Moore got the nod, and Spike ended up going to Randwick. Both were great glovemen. I think Spike had the edge with the bat and the odd cheeky comment from behind the stumps. Dave went on to play for NSW.

question
Q: Tim Freeburn made his first grade debut for Sutherland District Cricket Club on 25 September 2004 and the proud owner of first grade playing number 208.
He played grade cricket for Parramatta, Sutherland and Bankstown and is now the co-founder and Managing Director of Sesión Tequila
Who are the two players you admired most in terms of skills and competitive spirit in the competitions you played?
Phil Jaques - there’s not a bloke who worked harder or put in the hours Jaquesy did and still does with his coaching.
Nic Madinson - was one of the most skilful players I got to play with. He’s still going well and will be back in the Australian team this year.

Q: Mosman defeated Sutherland in the 1985-86 4th Grade final at Kensington Oval, played on Easter Saturday & Easter Monday 1986.
In the lead-up to the final, the late David Fordham (one of the Mosman players who was then working at Channel 10) contacted Sutherland captain Tom Iceton about getting an off-duty Channel 10 cameraman to film the whole match if each team agreed to pay half the cost. He would then edit the footage into a highlights package for all the players in the match.
