“The Cricketer”

Wake up at 4.30am, travel 800km from Melbourne to Adelaide for a Golden Duck, yet have a great day? Here is the story of game 3 of my adventure at the Payneham Cricket Club.

 

Special shout out to Almanac legend Malcolm ‘Rulebook’ Ashwood, who was instrumental in making the day a success. The great man sets the standard on how to move a raffle ticket!

    A pleasure to meet you and a privilege to help I admit I was nervous how the day would go re numbers
    pleasantly surprised on arriving at Payneham how many past players were in attendance rushing back to
    Devitt to grab the raffle books a tad nervous asking after hearing re your batting.The night was a outstanding success showing in that how quiet the room was during the interview of your good self.A great cause which will hopefully continue to grow legs thanks,Craig
