Q: The Manly Warringah Waratahs finished the 1976-77 2nd grade regular season as high-flying minor-Premiers, but were unable to take out the final against North Sydney. Still, it was a memorable season.
See below Captains Ian Howell’s summary in our 1976-77 Annual Report.
Season 1976/77 was an unforgettable one for the Second Eleven. Manly "Streaked" the opposition in the Minor Premiership Stakes, only to go down after a gallant fight to North Sydney in the Final.

Q: In the 2005/06 season, the Manly Warringah Waratahs staged our 2nd ever day-night match. It came after the success of the previous years match against North Sydney.
What a night it was. With 3,000 people in attendance at Manly Oval, Manly were able to get over the top of Parramatta with ease.
Manly 2-136 (Merchant 73*, Atkinson 35*) defeated Parramatta 135 (Sullivan 6-31, Todd 2-16).

Q: We love the old articles from the Manly Daily, our local rag that was able to provide our story to the Northern Beach public for over 100 years.
We managed to dig this one up from 2003-04 about a 198-run partnership between Scott Patterson and Jack Ritchie in the U15 Weblin shield competition.

question
Q: Captained by Sam Mesite in his last playing year, this 2nd Grade side did remarkably well, finishing 4th on the table with 50 points from 2 Outright wins, 5 first innings wins, 4 losses and 4 draws.
Their Semi Final was the first for 2nd Grade since Ian Howell's die in 1975/76. Unfortunately, rain played a big part in the Semi Final, with 10 hours of play lost before we were able to get on the field. With the team needing to win to advance to the final, we declared at 6/98. However, Minor Premiers Parramatta overhauled our total with ease, finishing at 3/101.

Q: Manly Warringah first-grade side in 2011-12 finished 5th over-all in Time Cruickshank's first season as First-Grade captain. They had 11 wins, 5 losses and 3 draws across their 19 regular season matches.
Unfortunately, we went down to Sydney University in the Quarter Final, but it was a successful season after a number of senior departures from the season before
Cameron Merchant had a magic summer, hitting 727 runs at an average of 51.9

question
Q: Excitement ran high among Manly cricket followers when, in September 1923, it was learnt that the great test all-rounder Jack Gregory would be joining the Club. Young members may not know much about Gregory, but it should suffice to say that he stood 6 feet 4 inches tall, was probably the fastest bowler in the world at the time, batted left-handed in the Gary Gilmour fashion, and was an acrobatic slip fielder who rates as one of Australia's finest in this position.

question
Q: Glenn Evans "Trunk" One of the greatest characters in our Club's history.
More stories have been told about Trunk than any other cricketer in the last 40 years. From falling asleep at Gully, to finishing the KFC in his bag that had been there since the end of last season, to his tricks on the field and at the bar, Trunk was special.
He could also play. A left-arm wrist spinner who hit the ball hard, Trunk took 394 wickets for the club between 1983 and 2002 and sits 17th on our all-time wicket takers list.
He was also a dynamic, if inconsistent, left-hand batter. Having said that, his 135 against Mosman in Round 1 of 1994/95 will still go down as one of the most gritty innings seen at Manly.
He and brother Warren are the only set of brothers to have taken 300 wickets for the club.

question
Q: On the 5th of December 1965, Australian greats Ray Lindwall, Arthur Morris and Keith Miller appeared in a testimonial, single wicket match at Manly Oval.
The day also included Richie Benaud, Doug Walters and Jim Burke. It was won by Manly all-rounder Terry Lee who defeated St George Batsman Billy Watson 32 to 10 in the final.
Lindwall, who flew down from Brisbane for the match, broke down after only 4 balls, and had to be helped off Manly Oval. The Daily Telegraph ran this unfortunate article, which made things look a little worse than what it was. The perceived 'blood' on Lindwall's shirt is actually mud.
We have not got the bottom of the exact format, but it looks to have been a 3 over match-up between individual players, with the player who loses each match-up eliminated at that time, and the winner progressing to the next round.
An estimated crowd of 1,500 people were on-hand to watch the event.

question
Q: In April 1905, the NSW Cricket Association promoted the club to the first-grade competition. However, in doing so it was decided that Manly Cricket Club, as it was called at the time, would be combined with Mosman and took a new name - the Middle Harbour Cricket Club. The Association decided, however, that the Club's boundaries would remain within the Municipality of Manly, and that the territory within the adjoining Municipality of Mosman would be neutral territory.
The decision was hotly protested for some years by the Club's committee who felt strongly that as the district was part of the Electorate of Middle Harbour, it should have been included in the Club's boundaries, and that players resident in Mosman should be compelled to play with the new Club.

question
Q: After a successful 1957-58 season, Bruce Cook led a powerful side into the first-grade final at the Sydney Cricket Ground against an experienced Western Suburbs side captained by Stan Simsey.
Wests won the toss and batted, but their side collapsed in the face of persistent Manly attack. Tom Brooks got us off to a great start with 3 wickets in his opening spell, aided by 2 fine slip catches by seventeen year old Terry Lee, and the good work was carried on by the naggingly accurate Ross Taylor and by Peter Philpott who kept a good length and turned his wrong 'ún sharply to end up with 4 wickets. Eddie Robinson chipped in with an important wicket, and Wests were all out for 145.

Q: M.A. Noble Lecture
To help foster the game in the local Manly Warringah District, the club's 1922/23 Committee arranged for Monty Noble, at the time one of the countries most decorated cricketers, to deliver one of his popular lectures on cricket at the Victoria Hall on 23rd March 1923. The Mayor MC'd the night, and over 200 lovers of the game attended, and were well repaid for their attendance as Noble’s talk and illustrations proved both instructive and interesting.

Standing: Louie Anderson, Ash Virdi, Jarrod Rawlings, Mitchell Pugh, Toby Poole, Tom Kaye, Ryan Farrell, Dave Farrell
Kneeling: James Boyer, Matt Butcher, Cameron Ashe, James Ritchie
In 2010/11 the club won its first ever 5th grade Premiership. Led by the inspirational Dave Farrell, it was a fantastic outright victory against Minor Premiers Eastern Suburbs, but not before a few heart palpitations.
After bowling out Easts or 111 thanks to 3 wickets each to Matt Butcher and Ash Virdi, the Tahs then pilled on 274 runs thanks to half centuries to James Boyer (60) and James Ritchie (52*), as well as 48 from Jarrod Rawlings. Victory seemed secured.
However, Easts came out swinging, hitting 7 for 300, setting us 140 runs to win or 38 overs to bat it out. And bat it out we did….. but only just, finishing the 38 overs on 7 or 108, James Ritchie against standing out with 28*.

In 2010/11 the club won its first ever 5th grade Premiership. Led by the inspirational Dave Farrell, it was a fantastic outright victory against Minor Premiers Eastern Suburbs, but not before a few heart palpitations.

Q: February 16th, 1992 was the date and Manly Oval was the scene, for the World Cup warm up match between the touring Sri Lankans and an elite Manly President's XI. After many months of negotiations between our Club, the Australian Cricket Board and the Sri Lankan Cricket Board, the all clear was given only three weeks before the scheduled match date.

Q: Waratahs in History – Matt Cranney
This fortnight Howzat Building Waratahs in History Q & A is with Matt Cranney. Matt (“Son of Errol”/Loose) played 19 seasons for the Tahs from 1992/1993 to 2011/2012. A local junior who started his career at the club when he was only 14. In the clubs 146-year history Matt sits in the top 20 of the highest run scorers for the club with over 6000 runs.

How did your love of cricket come about as a child?
Simple, my Dad Errol. We were always a cricketing family. My two older brothers and I would play backyard cricket all year round. We had a great backyard for cricket and would have friends over for backyard competitions. Future club legends like David Gainsford, Geoff Tucker and Dave Gardiner who were my eldest brothers age would terrorise me with a half-taped tennis ball, but this put me in good stead for when I came down to grade as a 14-yo and would face them in the old Grahams reserve nets.

Q: Cameron Lawes is this week’s Manly Rentals Waratah in History. A white line fever fast bowler, Cameron was a big part of our club in the late 90’s and early 2000’s until his move up to greener pastures in Newcastle.
The man affectionately known as “Lawson” (Cameron Lawson, pad up) bowled quick and batted strong, and if not for injury could have played a lot higher level cricket.
Cameron had a great passion for our club, and was one of the leaders who helped set the club on its way around the turn of the century.
Take a read through Cameron’s time at the club.

Q: Tahs move into Xmas break with dominant performances – Weekend Wrap 23rd December 2023
Saturday saw the Men conclude the first half of their season with a dominant showing against Campbelltown-Camden across the grades, the Tahs taking 4 wins from the 5 clashes with the Ghosts.
M1s bounced back strongly from an agonising defeat last start, with an important away victory. Losing the toss, a decent start from Joel Foster (21) was halted by a few quick wickets to have the Tahs 4/59, before Ryan Farrell (51) and Ned Hole (38) combined for a crucial 79 run partnership to shift the momentum, Faz anchoring the Tahs’ innings while Ned took the attack to the Ghosts’ bowlers. Late cameos from Lachlan Coyte (27) and Ryan Hadley (19*) pushing the score to a competitive 222. Early breakthroughs to Hadley and Tom Kaye kicked off the bowling innings, until the Ghosts consolidated to have the game in the balance. Both set batters were soon gone though as Bertie Foreman picked up the first before being involved again shortly after with a ripping catch off the bowling of Josh Seward. From there, a consistent flow of wickets including poles to Foreman and Joel Foster kept the Tahs on top, but it was Seward who starred picking up his maiden 1st Grade five-wicket haul in a classy display of fast bowling. The Tahs victorious by 51 runs as the Ghosts were bowled out for 171.

Q: Men go 4 from 5 to return to winning ways – Weekend Wrap 14th/15th October 2023
The tables turned across the weekend with a very different series of results compared to last round, as the men went 4 from 5 to return to winning ways while the women had a frustrating weekend despite a phenomenal run chase victory in W3s.
M1’s bounced back superbly from last week’s nail-biting defeat, with a bonus point victory against UNSW. Winning the toss and bowling, Josh Seward (2/34) struck early, before it was the spin duo of Bertie Foreman (4/28) and Joel Davies (2/22) who bowled brilliantly in tandem to turn the game in the Tahs’ favour. UNSW all out for 172 inside 42 overs. The Tahs’ run chase was off to the perfect start courtesy of some clean hitting early from Matt Brewster (53) and Joel Foster (34). With the bonus point in sight, the Davies brothers then combined to seal a bonus point victory for the Tahs, Ollie finishing 52no and Joel 17no.
The tables turned across the weekend with a very different series of results compared to last round, as the men went 4 from 5 to return to winning ways while the women had a frustrating weekend despite a phenomenal run chase victory in W3s.

Q: The Weekly Wicket is back for another week with Sam Hole interviewing one of, if not the, greatest ever contributors to our club, current President Andrew Fraser.
Frase takes us through all the high’s and lows of his involvement with the club, his biggest highlights (which will surprise some) and what he thinks the future holds for both our club and NSW Premier Cricket.
Frase is known by many as the fun loving, always quick with a comment character, but his love for our club is greater than anyone could ever know across a 45 year span.

Q: Our latest Howzat Building Waratahs in History Q&A we speak with Sam Mesite, a club member for over 50 years and still contributing as a member of our coaching staff. Sammy has performed almost every role across the club during his time and has a unique and long term perspective on both the club and Premier Cricket as a whole.

Q: We are pleased to have Craig Glassock as our first Howzat Building Waratah in History for the 2023/24 season.
Craig captained 1st grade for 5 years, starting in 1996/1997 season and continued through to the 2000/01 season. He captained 1st Grade to a premiership in the Limited overs competition in 2000/01 and was a big part of our club in the late 80’s, 90’s and early 2000’s.
Craig returned to play 2nd grade in 2001/02 after suffering from a bout of chronic fatigue syndrome. He came back strong and that year in the semi-final at Manly Oval he scored his highest ever grade score of 261 breaking several club records along the way. Unfortunately, a 2nd grade premiership did not eventuate in a tight final battle!

Q: NSW Breakers star Ebony Hoskin joins Waratahs
The Mounties Manly Warringah Waratahs are pleased to confirm that NSW Breakers star Ebony Hoskin will join the club for the 2023/24 season.

She has joined the NSW Breakers squad this year on a permanent basis.
Ebony has plied her trade with Campbelltown over the last few seasons but comes to Manly keen to make her mark.
“I’m very excited about joining the club, I’ve had some great conversations with the coaching staff so far and believe the club is moving in the right direction”.
“The Women’s program is still relatively new but the club clearly has big plans to become a real force.
“I also like the whole-of-club-attitude that seems to be a central part of the culture. Really looking forward to getting involved”.
We are looking forward to Ebony playing a big part of our 1st Grade side this season.

question
Q: Stephen O’Keefe has informed the club that he will return to his junior club Hawkesbury for the upcoming 2023/24 season.
The man known as ‘SOK’ has been an extremely valuable member of our club since his arrival in 2009/10. His influence on our senior playing group has been immense, especially over the last few seasons.
He has helped game day warm up of our lower grade teams at Grahams Reserve when injured, contributed to training and coaching, and always been a willing helper.
He will be sorely missed.
However, as a cricket loving club, we applaud the move.
There’s no denying that the Hawks have had their on and off field challenges over the last few years. Their entire playing grounds and facilities being metres under water, not once but twice, was upsetting to see.
Now SOK wants to return to his junior club and help.
While we don’t know all the details, what we can tell you is that SOK has always put himself last. In-fact he has taken no money over the years from us, preferring to give anything on offer to others.
So, we are confident that this move is one of love. In what will probably be his last year of playing some cricket, a local junior done good returns to his roots. There’s nothing but respect there.
Across 88 matches, SOK took 155 wickets for the Waratahs at an average of 17.35. He took a career best of 9/54 against Campbelltown in 2016/17.
He hit 1,332 runs at 28.95 with a top score of 158 in 2009/10. He hit 2 centuries and 6 half centuries.
Best of luck SOK in what will likely be your final year, and we look forward to seeing him at Manly Oval soon.
