question
Q: 1999-2000, the year of the Bulldogs
I was fortunate to start my 1st grade career on Australia Day in 1994 with Fairfield-Liverpool after Corey Doyle (RIP) was selected in the Australian Under 19 team. I went on to play three seasons with Western Suburbs (1996-1999) and then for Bankstown (including the 1999/2000 premiership) until 2005. I finished with a season back at Fairfield-Liverpool playing in the 2006 Grand Final against Bankstown.
To celebrate the mighty Bankstown Bulldogs winning the 1st grade Premiership in 1999-2000, I want to acknowledge my great Bankstown team-mates (see below) and in the absence of singling any out in ‘my best grade team’, I thought I would select a Sydney Grade Cricket XI based on the performances of our opposition in our 1999/2000 premiership season!
1. Brett van Deinsen (St George) – what a talent, but anyone who witnessed VD taking on Wayne Holdsworth in the Final
