Randwick’s 1909-10 season was notable for reasons other than cricket. The 2nd Grade team ran foul of the NSW Cricket Association’s Grade Committee with damaging results. In an incident which strangely is not mentioned in any way in the club’s annual report of that season, an umpire reported adversely on the behaviour of certain unnamed players in the side.

It was reported in The Sydney Morning Herald of 22 February 1910 that umpire Mr. Newman, who stood in the match Randwick v North Sydney on 11 and 18 December 1909, was the subject of “insinuating remarks” and continued “harping” from the whole of the Randwick team (except the captain Charles Patrick) during the remainder of the match after he had given a batsman out.
