Q: My best grade team - Paul Stenhouse 1986 to 2000
Here's my go of the best players I've been in the sheds with at Easts/Easts-Redlands from 1986 to 2000.
In batting order:
1. Jimmy Maher
2. Shane Watson
3. Stuart Law
4. Dirk Wellham (Captain)
5. Greg Ritchie
6. Mal Freeman
7. Steve Storey
8. Peter Anderson (Wicket Keeper)
9. Paul Hutchison
10. Craig Jesberg
11. Damien MacKenzie
Daniel Paine (12th) (batsman)
Standby Players:
Stephen Hood (bowler)
Michael Warden (bowler)
Ben Edmondson (bowler)
Michael Hayward (batsman)
Ian Stenhouse (batsman)
Team Manager - Room Assistance
Evan Bancroft - unlucky not to be considered higher, if only he had an outswinger.
Some controversy over my selection of Captain I'd say, given the abundance of choices. I think all of the top six were outstanding options.
I found Dirk to be the smartest cricketer I have played with. Not a lot said, but wow, when he did, it was worth listening too. Others may have been stronger leaders, but tactically, I think he was the best student of the game whilst I played.
The batsman nearly picked themselves, Ando with the gloves is still the best I've ever played with or against, bar none.
Would love to take that bowling attack onto the Gabba or Peter Burge when it's hard and fast.
11 of the 12 played First Class cricket, and Mal Freeman certainly didn't give anything away to the other blokes. Tough as nails too.
Lots of great memories looking back at the names listed, and many more great fellas who were members of the legendary Crab Pot or the brilliant Redlands club house.
Enjoy.
