SUB-DISTRICT DROMANA will play Frankston YCW and Hastings will host Rosebud in the two MPCA Sub District semi finals this weekend. As predicted last week, despite Carrum Downs being a mathematical chance of playing finals leading into the final round, Rosebud was never going to lose to Skye and that proved to be the case. While the Buds won comfortably and finished in third place, the same can’t be said for the Blues. Hastings was beaten by top of the table Dromana, meaning it hasn’t beaten a top four team this season. Going into a sudden death final this week,…

DISTRICT HEATHERHILL and Seaford both blew their opportunities to sneak into the MPCA District top four on Saturday. In the final round of the season, Flinders, Seaford and the Hills were all equal on 72 points. Flinders seemed to have the easiest of tasks playing Seaford Tigers, while the Hills hosted Mt Martha and Seaford had the tough task of playing the best in the business in Red Hill.

SUB-DISTRICT THE MPCA Sub District ladder was put to rest last night after Frankston YCW staged a wonderful outright victory against Skye to lock in a place in the top four. Even more impressive was Rosebud’s reverse outright win performance against Hastings, giving them a valuable 12 points and locking them into fourth place. Hastings is a little wobbly right now and faces Dromana in a one day game this weekend. The Blues have won only one of its past three games, being beaten by Rosebud on the weekend and Frankston YCW – both finals teams. If the Blues lose…
DISTRICT BADEN Powell is in a world of pain in MPCA District cricket after losing its third match in a row on Saturday. After dominating the early part of the season, where they failed to lose a game before Christmas, the Braves are now on their knees, searching for ways to try and turn around their once blistering form. Despite the Braves poor form, their superb percentage of 1.60 is sure to hold them in the top bracket, even if they were to lose against Main Ridge in the final match of the season, a one-dayer. The Braves’ last victory…
