We all have days that we never forget. For me, it was mostly team-related and I treasure being lucky enough to be part of a first-grade premiership in 1998/99 season with the Balmain, (now known as Sydney Cricket Club). A great group of tigers who played for each other.
There is one day that does stand out, personally. It was the day of the official opening of the new grandstand at our home ground, Drummoyne Oval. To celebrate the occasion Balmain put on a big lunch and many dignitaries from Cricket NSW were in attendance.
One the day Balmain were playing St George. One of the great clubs in grade cricket history and a long-standing rivalry. Saints were one of the strongest clubs in the 90s.
