Western Australia’s extremely popular Governor possesses a great love and knowledge of sport.We are always very pleased when their commitments permit that His Excellency and Mrs Sanderson are able to attend WACA matches and functions. His Excellency again strongly supported the Governor’s XI vs WACA President’s XI cricket match played at the WACA Ground in March of this year. The Governor’s XI played with great distinction, soundly defeating the WACA President’s XI and thus restoring some parity to results of recent years in this prestigious annual fixture.

While there were some excellent performances from our State cricketers giving cause for late season celebrations and for future optimism, our financial results were concerning. The results were adversely affected by an early Test match against Zimbabwe which severely impacted match attendance and in turn, traditional revenue sources particularly Membership; reduced seasonal distributions from Cricket Australia and an alleged fraud, the amount of which now appears will be fully covered by the Association’s insurance. We already have advice of a much improved programme for the coming season, interest in Membership has picked up considerably and Cricket Australia have advised of substantially increased distribution for the WACA in 2004-2005. Despite our difficult year, I am confident that we will handle our current borrowing in the same prudent manner as we did when we borrowed $15 million for the last major WACA Ground redevelopment in the late 1980’s, which we repaid over a 15 year time-frame. At the beginning of the season the WACA secured the sponsorship of Western Australia's largest electrical retailer Retravision. The Western Warriors became known as the Retravision Warriors as part of a sponsorship arrangement supported by a substantial cash and leveraging contribution. The sponsorship was been a great success and is a tribute to Retravision, to our players and to our management team. We look forward to further mutually beneficial achievements. The Test Match staged very early in the season, was a great challenge.The WACA witnessed history yet again with Matthew Hayden’s world record 380 and Hayden and Adam Gilchrist each scoring a century in a session adding 207 runs between lunch and tea on the second day. In another significant day for the Ground we farewelled the Waugh brothers in front of 17,000 fans in their final ING Cup appearance in Perth. We acknowledge and pay tribute to Steve Waugh for his outstanding contribution as Captain of Australia. He has led a truly great team by example and he leaves a great legacy. 6 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r We congratulate Ricky Ponting on his appointment as Australian Captain and note the seamless and successful transition that has taken place. We acknowledge our own Adam Gilchrist, Justin Langer, Damien Martyn, Brad Hogg and Brad Williams for their Test selection and performances and our other national team member Mike Hussey. It was great to welcome Wayne Clark back into the fold as State Coach after successfully coaching Yorkshire in English County Cricket. Wayne has enjoyed immediate success with the team in his first season back and we are pleased that his contract has been extended for another two seasons. After a slow start to the season the Retravision Warriors stormed home to win the ING Cup in amazing circumstances. We will long remember Kade Harvey and Darren Wates needing 50 runs from the last 30 balls and bringing off a memorable victory. In the four day competition, the team finished their Pura Cup campaign only one victory short of making the final. I acknowledge the outstanding career of Jo Angel who has retired as WA’s greatest ever wicket taker and second only to the immortal Clarrie Grimmett in Sheffield Shield and Pura Cup records. Jo is the epitome of a Retravision Warrior and we thank him for his contribution to WA cricket and for the exemplary manner in which he has played the game. During the year Members approved a new constitution after an enormous amount of hard work by a lot of people. I thank them all for their time and efforts from which the Association will derive great benefit. I pay tribute to former Chief Executive Kath White for her achievements during her three years at the helm. Former Australian Test player Tony Dodemaide has joined us as the new WACA CEO after a distinguished career at the Melbourne Cricket Club and the MCC at Lords. We wish him and his team every success. Our substantial commitment to redevelop the WACA Ground in 2002 has commenced to bear fruit. We staged several concerts this year with more scheduled in 2004-2005. Strategically we will endeavour to secure more of these and encourage other leading sports to use the WACA Ground with the aim of producing winter fixtures and additional revenue opportunities for the Association. That revenue is redirected into cricket and enables us to continue to fulfil our century old constitutional objectives to develop and promote cricket in all areas of the State. We are very proud of the contribution that this Association and cricket make to the community of Western Australia as it has done so for more than a century. However it is becoming increasingly more difficult for us to maintain the level of financial contribution from our own resources that we direct to grass roots cricket. It is a message that we need to have understood more fully in the public arena. We remain very grateful for the ongoing support of our Members who via that affinity have been loyal contributors to the development of Western Australian cricket throughout our distinguished history. I urge Members to encourage their family, friends and associates to become Members of the WACA to assist further with that development. Thank you to our management and staff for all of their efforts over the past year and to my fellow Board members, including retired colleagues Frank O’Driscoll and Paul Sullivan and all who served on our committees, for giving of their time and expertise. We are all very conscious of the need for proper planning and good financial management and will continue to work closely with management to ensure the financial health of the Association. Thank you also to our valued sponsors and the many individuals, group and corporate clients who continue to support the WACA and to Cricket Australia and the media who play such an important role in Australian cricket. On behalf of the WACA I acknowledge the work of the many volunteers from grass roots cricket, to all the Associations in both metropolitan and country areas and to our WACA affiliated clubs who all work unstintingly for the well being of this great game. I am confident that with your help, cricket will continue to remain strong and prosper in Western Australia.

From that date constitutional reference to ‘Executive’ became ‘Board’. T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 7 From The Chief Executive Tony Dodemaide, WACA Chief Executive Officer Members will have no doubt read of the challenges that confront the Association and cricket in Western Australia. These challenges are both commercial and cricket related as we seek to return this Association to its normally accepted position as a cricket and sport leader. The management of the Association and its assets is a demanding and complex administration challenge for the person entrusted with that responsibility. As our constitution confers among other responsibilities to the Association and its elected Board, the role of ‘keeper of the code’ or ‘custodian of the game’ in Western Australia, the CEO needs to place a strong emphasis on ensuring that cricket at all levels is administered effectively.This requires both financial and physical resources to be prudently directed to produce not only high quality individual and team performances and achievements at the elite level, but equally importantly effective development programs that produce those players via junior, school, district, community, regional, women’s and indigenous cricket programs. The cricket elements of the WACA have fine leadership through Retravision Warriors Coach Wayne Clark, Captain Justin Langer (when Test commitments to Australia preclude Justin’s availability, by his deputy Michael Hussey) and administratively supported by Cricket Operations headed up by General Manager Rob Langer. Balanced with our responsibilities to cricket in this State, is maximising the commercial advantages and opportunities accruing from ownership of the WACA Ground, the Association’s other significant asset. The Ground and its operations assist in producing revenue that enables our many and varied commitments to be met and to sustain the referred to cricket programs. General Manager Ground Operations Wayne Howells astutely manages the Assets and Events inherent with the WACA Ground ownership, a role that has evolved considerable complexities following the diversification into some of our non core business of past eras.The successful staging of international standard concert acts at our venue 8 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r during the past six months is a prime example of such diversification. The business services and constitutional elements of our operations continue to be guided by experienced and committed personnel in Chief Financial Officer Roger Nelson and Association Secretary Geoff Havercroft. Both gentlemen have been required to rise to special challenges lately and have performed with distinction. I offer thanks to Geoff for his safe custodianship of the CEO chair in the interim period before my arrival in May, and commend Roger for his efforts in shouldering an even greater load as a result of the recent unfortunate defalcation. Considerable time and planning had been undertaken by Kath White during the period of her tenure as CEO to create a management structure that could best achieve the twin objectives of ensuring the Association’s interests are prudently managed for the ultimate benefit of the Association and cricket in WA. In refining that framework, with the benefit of ongoing experience and some new personnel with slightly different skill and talent sets, we can express confidence that such a structure is in place to usher in a new period of on field success and positive commercial outcomes for the Association. The 2003-2004 administrative achievements included a major review of the Association’s constitution. While it also served us well for an extended post war period, it had become increasingly unrelated in key areas of the evolution of cricket, the business of the WACA and its relationship with District Clubs and Cricket Australia. This report acknowledges with grateful thanks the democratic processes enacted to produce forums that refined the documents into a successful passage through a Special General Meeting of Members on January 29 2004. The Members’ assent also paved the way for far more cohesive regulation of any amendment that may be required in respect to routine Membership By Laws, the introduction of Standard Charters and Code of Conduct for Board Members in the conduct of their duties and responsibilities to Members, frame work that also identifies areas of major transgressions from those duties and responsibilities and suitable disciplinary procedures in such an event. In another significant constitutional and management achievement, we are delighted to report that Women’s Cricket in Western Australia has been integrated into the WACA structure and now reflects a consistency with national initiatives in this regard. Women’s cricket will benefit from more cohesive administration as well as physical and financial resources.Already a committed band of administrators have made terrific progress for women’s cricket through the Women’s Cricket Advisory Board Chaired by Mark Weinman and reporting their issues and needs through the WACA State Cricket Committee. One of the more substantial commercial challenges for the year was to identify and consummate into a mutually beneficial agreement, a commercial partner to sponsor the Western Warriors following the necessary change of direction for Western Power foreshadowed in the 2002-2003 edition of The Western Cricketer. Such a partnership was entered into with Retravision, the highly respected and instantly recognisable electrical retailer brand, not only in this State but in other parts of Australia and New Zealand.This Annual Report is a very appropriate medium to acknowledge our grateful thanks to Lester Gamble and Bill Harries, respectively the Managing Director and Chairman of the Board of Retravision, for not only accepting the invitation to be the sponsor of the State team but for the manner in which they embraced the commitment to the sponsorship and their relationship with the team, the players, the WACA Board and Management.The substantial role in these negotiations by recently departed General Manager Business Development, Darren Beazley was also greatly appreciated. I take the opportunity to welcome Peter Loveridge as new head of the Marketing & Commercial department.We wish him every success in his important role. Retravision’s investment in the WACA and to cricket is considerable. It is most heartening therefore, to identify by independent market survey near the end of the season that the Retravision brand through the renamed Retravision Warriors have produced a huge awareness factor within the market place. It was also fitting that the Retravision Warriors responded magnificently on the playing field producing a character laden victory in the final of the ING Cup and a barnstorming finish to their Pura Cup program, suggesting that success in the longer form of the game is also not far away. It is an escapable fact that the WACA and cricket would struggle to meet its commitments without the extensive sponsorship that we receive in so many different forms.In this era,business corporations are subjected to numerous requests, particularly from sport, for sponsorship dollars.We are indebted to all sponsors who respond to the needs of the WACA and cricket in this State.Acknowledgements are more extensively covered elsewhere in this edition of The Western Cricketer. This report also acknowledges with untold admiration, the huge number of voluntary administrators who are the lifeblood of cricket and without whom the game would surely flounder. It is difficult to provide the sort of recognition that they individually and collectively deserve but please be aware that volunteer recognition is a significant plank in the WACA‘s Strategic Plan. The respective CEO’s over the past year pay tribute to the whole hearted commitment of your Board to the welfare of the Association, cricket in Western Australia and to its Members. Chaired by Charles Fear, your elected Board give selflessly of their time and expertise and provide direction to management to enact the objectives and aspirations of the Association. Thanks are extended to our Members for their long term loyalty and forebearance. In all of the foregoing words there are the ingredients for a better era in store for Members. In the season under review, the WACA was presented with a most difficult set of fixtures and timing to generate interest and enthusiasm.That we were comfortably able to exceed the SCG attendance for their allocated Test match against Zimbabwe speaks volumes for the loyalty and passion of our Members and indeed the West Australian cricket loving public. The coming summer will provide Members with a terrific international programme including for the first time in Perth three women’s cricket ODI’s between Australia and New Zealand with key fixtures being programmed for the most appealing times of the year.Additionally your Board and management are focussed on restoring and enhancing the value and benefits of your Membership. While this will not happen overnight, in your renewal invitation which you would have received by now I hope you will identify the product of the early stages of that commitment. It has been my privilege and honour to be appointed CEO of the Association. Already I am able to identify with the passion and commitment that has made the WACA and its representative teams the measuring stick for so much on field and commercial success in the past four decades, something that until May of this year, I was only able to view with admiration from a distance in my playing and commercial career. Now that I have been accorded the responsibilities to carry the baton and achieve even more success for the WACA, Members can be assured that my commitment and passion towards those objectives will be unwavering. I look forward to working with you.

By Paul Wilson, former Test fast-bowler and Retravision Warrior Wates and Harvey rejoice in their miraculous victory. BEING part of the “Modern Miracle Match” at the Gabba in February was a remarkable finish to my very unconventional career. My cricket journey had brought me to Perth in July 2002 via Newcastle, the AIS Cricket Academy, Sydney and Adelaide.The major reason behind my shift to WA was the chance to win an ING or Pura Cup before I retired. Having tasted defeat in two previous ING Cup Finals (including the devastating loss to New South Wales at the WACA Ground in 2002-03), I knew that this was going to be my last chance to fill the final chapter in my personal scrapbook. The lead up to the final in Brisbane was relatively low key for the team but the guys were very focused, very determined and as game time approached, hell bent on spoiling the Queensland Bulls celebrations which had been going on before a ball had been bowled! To this day, I still can’t believe I played in a game in which the opposition previously scored over 400 in their 50 overs (two weeks before the final). So you can imagine the thoughts going through our respective minds when QLD were 0-100 after 12! However, in stepped the Pharmacist, Kade Harvey. Whatever prescription he served up to the Bulls sure worked, it was magic. With the help of the rookie, Aaron Heal, we were able to reel back the home team to a respectable total to be chased. 12 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r If anyone had offered us a total of under 250 to chase in a final, you would take it every time.The run chase was a blur to me, Scott Meuleman showed the whole country what he could do with the willow while Chris Rogers played an underrated support role at the top of the order. From there on wickets fell and nerves became frayed. We got on top then lost our way, then got on top again but when Ryan Campbell departed things did not look good. It was at this moment I decided to join our team’s heart and soul, Neil Tyndall downstairs in the dressing room to avoid watching our ‘death’ from the stands. What transpired over the last five overs will stay with me forever. It was as if it was meant to be.We had ‘lost’ this game three to four times over the space of the afternoon but we were not going to be denied this time. When Darren Wates hit ‘that six’ and the cameras showed me acting like a 10-year-old, it was the first time I had been up to the viewing area for an hour but I know a winner when I see one! The dressing room atmosphere afterwards was one of stunned euphoria.We were shocked not only by the win but also how we won, this game will be the cornerstone of many future wins for the Retravision Warriors. To add to the emotion of the night, a few friends and relatives of the players were invited down to celebrate after the official presentations. Family and friends are your support network at all times and to be able to share this moment with my father, Gary and my brother, Anthony was extra special to me. I left Newcastle when I was 19 and at that stage Anthony was seven years old, so anytime the Wilson men get together it is great. I played in more talented teams than this one, especially in South Australia, but I would not have had it any other way. Determination, perseverance and passion are values I swear by and this side had them all.This was backed up by the other members of the squad and our wonderful coaching and support staff. I played my first and last First-Class games against Queensland and ironically, I also played my first and last One-day games against Queensland. The Bulls gave me a lot of headaches over the years but victory in this last one was the sweetest feeling. Zimbabweans Roar at Lilac Hill By Shaun Taylor, WACA Communications Manager Heath Streak sends one down to Geoff Marsh with nine men in the slips cordon. WITH the likes of Gilchrist, Langer, Martyn, Hogg and Williams playing in the annual Lilac Hill Festival match you could understand the massive crowd streaming into the picturesque ground was buzzing with excitement. The Zimbabweans fronted up for their first Lilac Hill experience and they were expected to struggle against a powerhouse Cricket Australia Chairman’s XI. Former WA great and Zimbabwean Coach Geoff Marsh played for the Chairman’s XI and in a brilliant move the old met the new generation when Marsh’s son and Retravision Warrior Shaun was included in the team. Former Test off-spinner and eccentric personality Colin Miller also pulled on the creams for the home team. The Chairman’s XI batted first and the crowd roared when Gilchrist strode to the crease with Martyn. A batting exhibition was anticipated but indomitable Zimbabwe Captain Heath Streak rained on the expected parade of talent. Heath bowled Gilchrist with the fifth ball of the first over and signalled his team’s serious intentions. Martyn had the crowd on their feet when he took 30 runs from the second over of the innings. The mercurial right-hander smashed a hapless Sean Ervine for three sixes and three fours in one unforgettable over. He was out one run later. From there the home teams innings ebbed and flowed with wickets falling regularly as Streak (4-33) and Andy Blignaut (3-47) put the brakes on the innings. The much anticipated partnership of Shaun Marsh and his father never eventuated as Shaun fell for a duck with Geoff next in. Ryan Campbell’s 65 took the Chairman’s XI to 240. The visitors were in trouble early at 2-26 but from there they were never in danger of losing as Mark Vermeulen (61), Stuart Carlisle (89 not out) and Craig Wishart (63 not out) coasted to victory with eight overs to spare. The Lilac Hill Festival match was again a fantastic success and holds a unique place in the Australian cricket calendar.The overwhelming corporate and public patron support each year helps to cement WA’s hold on this prized fixture which exclusively benefits grassroots cricket and the local community. CAC XI 240 (Campbell 65, Hogg 39, Streak 4-33, Blignaut 3-47) lost to Zimbabwe 3-241 (Carlisle 89*,Wishart 63*) Ryan Campbell takes to the Zimbabwean attack as Tatenda Taibu looks on. T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 13 Veterans Lead the Charge By Shaun Taylor, WACA Communications Manager MURRAY Goodwin and Kade Harvey enjoyed career-best seasons in 2003-04 and the veteran Warriors put their feats down to renewed determination and a resolution to lead a young squad from the front. Goodwin enjoyed a record-breaking 200304 and capped it with his first Laurie Sawle Medal as WA’s most outstanding player in domestic cricket and said Goodwin led Sussex to an English his success came from County Championship before playing a pivotal role in the Warriors victorious putting himself under ING Cup campaign. pressure to perform. “I put a lot of pressure on myself at the beginning of the season,” he said. “I feel I stepped up to that pressure and performed. I had my most enjoyable year of cricket for the Warriors. I had fun with my cricket last season and that is a recipe for success.” Goodwin had his most dominant and prolific summer for the Retravision Warriors and was WA’s leading scorer in the Pura Cup with 1183 runs at an average of 65.72 with three hundreds and a double-century. This beat Simon Katich’s state record of 1145 runs in a season set during 2000-01. The middle-order run machine was also the second most prolific scorer in the elite Pura Cup, regarded as the strongest domestic competition in world cricket. Only Victorian Matthew Elliot (1381) could make more runs than the 31-year-old former Zimbabwean Test player. Goodwin felt that it was time for him to step up to the challenge and be a leader in a young West Australian team. “I feel that I am now an experienced player,” he said. “I need to lead from the front. I am still learning the game and I’m young at heart. You use your experience but still stay youthful. I am really enjoying playing for WA with such exciting young talent in the squad. This is such a good group of guys.With all the young players coming in it keeps you on your toes.” 14 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r Kade Harvey was a match-winner all season (17 ING Cup wickets at 22.35 apiece) but he immortalised himself into the folklore of Western Australian cricket when he engineered the Warriors miraculous ING Cup Final victory over Queensland at the Gabba Ground. After taking 4-28 with his skidding medium pacers in Queensland’s innings he swung lustily and formed the critical 75 run partnership with Darren Wates that snatched victory from the jaws of defeat. This was the highlight of Harvey’s colourful career that began a decade ago. “The ING Cup is pretty tough to beat,” he said. “It was a pretty big game up there and just to win the game let alone play a role was a highlight because we weren’t expected to do that well. I’ve been part of three winning sides and this one was by far the best.” Harvey’s success came from taking the opposite approach to Goodwin. Rather then put more pressure on himself Harvey relaxed his approach to cricket. “I’ve got a pretty balanced life and took the pressure off myself a little bit to just go out there and enjoy playing Kade Harvey has been the Warriors most One-day wicket taker for the cricket without any consistent past decade. expectations,” he said. Harvey and wife Jo welcomed their first child into the world in April. Harvey said Emma’s arrival will not impact on his cricket as he has always separated his personal life from his cricket profession. “Cricket’s always been something I have enjoyed but it’s never been something I have wanted to do full-time,” he said. “I enjoy my six months away from cricket and I enjoy my business side of things. I don’t think my cricket benefits from being a full-time cricketer.” Harvey is not looking forward to the prospect of leaving the newest addition to his family at home when the season begins. “The first road trip is going to be tough but people all over the world and other cricketers deal with leaving their kids at home so it’s just a matter of adjusting to that while you are away.” The Coach’s Review By Wayne Clark, State Coach WELL, it was a bit of a mixture of a season for the Retravision Warriors, especially in the Pura Cup. A very slow start saw us with only two points at Christmas time, and our chances of qualifying for the Final all but gone. Our batting was solid, but our ability to contain and then dismiss a team was a huge problem. Different combinations were tried and it is credit to all the guys, for the way they stuck to their tasks. Those efforts were rewarded after Christmas where we turned our season around, and there was at one time even a thought of actually getting into the Pura Final. As stated, our batters did an excellent job. Consistency was the key, with all of our top six scoring freely during the year. Murray Goodwin was the stand-out with 1183 runs, with Rogers, North, Hussey, Langer and Campbell excelling at different times. Our bowlers didn’t fair quite as well - no Williams, Clark and Casson (for most of the season) left a hole in the attack, but the arrival of Ben Edmondson was a bonus. In a fairytale couple of months, Ben went from unknown Queenslander, who gambled on upping stakes and travelling to Perth to try his luck, to a name recognised in first class ranks taking 28 wickets in his 7 games for his new State. All the bowlers battled manfully and should be complimented on our results after Christmas but we can’t afford to give other States the start we did.There is plenty of work to do in this area. The ING Cup competition was the obvious highlight of our season. We played extremely consistently, with our batters performing superbly. The climax of course was the final in Brisbane. What a game – one of the most memorable and emotional games I have been involved in. It showed the maturity the Warriors developed all year. The belief and refusal to panic was so evident right to the end. The efforts of Kade Harvey and Darren Wates were outstanding but I can assure you it was a tremendous show of commitment, belief and intense team spirit by all players and staff that was the difference. Something I’m sure will hold us in good stead for next season in both forms of the game. A sad note for the year was the retirement of Jo Angel during the season, and then Paul Wilson at the end of the season. Both tremendous players over many years, we wish both the best in their retirement. Jo of course was a living legend in WA cricket for many years – a great character,consummate team man and in general a ‘bloody good bloke’. Thanks Jo. Ben Edmondson in full flight for his adopted Warriors.

Also claimed a record sixth CUB Gold Cup. At the height of his powers as a mercurial batsman in long and short forms of the game and continues to amaze with his dazzling wicketkeeping skills. BRAD HOGG Continued his renaissance as one of Australia’s most versatile allrounders.Took his first five wicket haul for Australia in a One-day International against Sri Lanka and was rewarded with a Cricket Australia contract for 2004-05. Question marks appeared after some circumspect form early in 2003-04 but the right-hander’s ability was never in doubt. Showed maturity and class to make match-winning centuries on Australia’s arduous tour of Sri Lanka. Still a key part of Australia’s Test and One-day top order. JUSTIN LANGER 16 ADAM GILCHRIST Realised a lifelong dream when he was named Western Australian Captain before the season started. Had a brilliant season for country and State and is now the highest Western Australian run scorer in Test cricket. T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r DAMIEN MARTYN Made his Test debut this season against Zimbabwe in Sydney. After years on the verge of national selection Williams broke through this summer to become a critical part of Australia’s Test and One-day International success. MARCUS NORTH Marcus North had his most successful season of his career with 984 Pura Cup runs and 387 ING Cup runs at an average of 96.75 in 2003-04. This led to selection in the Australia A limitedovers team that played Zimbabwe in two matches. In the second one-day clash in Adelaide in January the lefthanded middle-order batsman starred in Australia A's 119 run victory. He belted 115 from 109 balls with 14 boundaries and two sixes in Australia A's total of 6-327. Finally donned the Australian colours when he made his One-day International debut against India at the WACA Ground where he helped the Aussies to a comfortable victory. Returned to his best form for the Warriors and had his most prolific season in four years. CHRIS ROGERS BRAD WILLIAMS MICHAEL HUSSEY Continued to improve and a near thousand run Pura Cup season led to the left-hander being selected for Australia A for a three-day match against India. Showed his international potential with 70 in the first innings of that match. T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 17 Justin’s Medal of Honour By Shaun Taylor, WACA Communications Manager “When everyone starts out they think the greatest honour would be to be Captain of Australia. The reality is that it’s not going to happen for me but this has to be the second best prize,” Langer said. “Until you’ve actually been in the Australian team you wouldn’t understand the significance of winning a Test match and singing the team song. “To be asked to lead the team song was without doubt one of the huge highlights of my career. I just know how important it is to Australian cricketers, it’s something that has become quite sacred really and it’s a massive honour for me.” Another of Langer’s dreams to come true in 2003-2004 was his elevation to WA Captain. Langer admitted Justin Langer ever watchful, ever determined. Justin Langer and Ricky Ponting proud and resplendent in their ‘Baggy Greens’. THERE has never been a person more passionate about playing Test cricket for Australia than Justin Langer. Such is Langer’s love and passion for the Baggy Green that you can see the sense of duty in his eyes and hear his voice crack as he tries to express the emotions inside him as he describes what it is like to don a tattered piece of Albion cloth. Langer wears his Baggy Green like a Medal of Honour. For him it is a suit of armour, he is invincible, he is a giant, he is a member of the most exclusive of clubs and a keeper of a code held most sacred. The Baggy Green instils in him the courage to face the world’s fastest bowlers and the will to stand up when he is knocked down time and time again. Langer has been dropped from the Australian team on several occasions but is now firmly ensconced at the top of the order. Langer’s passion for the team and his standing in the eyes of his team mates was confirmed after Steve Waugh retired and new Captain Ricky Ponting entrusted Langer with the sacred duty of leading the team song ‘Under the Southern Cross’ after each Test victory. Ponting held the duty but relinquished it as a Captain has never been responsible for leading the team in Australia’s most famous team victory anthem. 18 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r that he thought the chance may have been past him but now his photo takes a pride of place by the Captain’s Wall in the Lillee-Marsh Stand. “It was a huge honour for me”, Langer said. “The opportunity seemed destined to come a lot sooner and maybe earlier in my career it became too much of a focus. Captaincy is something you earn. Maybe early in my career I just held on a bit tight to wanting it. “To get your photo up on the wall with so many great leaders of Western Australian cricket was huge and I was very excited about it. I’ve got a real confidence in what is going to happen in the next four or five years in West Australian cricket.There are a lot of very good young players.We have some really good young characters in there, they are really solid citizens.” It was in the West Indies in 2003 Langer became the highest Test run scorer in Western Australian cricket history. Langer passed self-confessed boyhood idol Kim Hughes when he made his 4416th Test run. By the end of season 2003-2004 Langer had competed in 74 Test matches, made 5278 runs at an average of 44.72 and compiled 18 centuries. His highest score of 250 made against England during the 2002 Boxing Day Test match is the highest Test score by a West Australian. “There’s no doubt he (Hughes) was my hero as a kid and you have got to put it all into perspective,” Langer said. “I probably won’t realise what a good career its been until after I’ve retired.When you are playing you don’t get a chance to look back, you are always looking to your next contest so there is little time for reflection. Some time down the track I will look at it and think ‘Gee what a great career’.” Now that Langer is considered one of the elder statesmen in Australian cricket he feels a duty to bring the best out of the young players he sees coming through the ranks. “To me the most important role of a Captain is to bring the best out in your players. If you can bring the best out in individuals you are going to have team success,” he said. “Hopefully they will learn from my example and I can learn from them. I learnt a lot from the young guys last year in my first year as Captain. I learnt how to treat people differently and to let them blossom and not force things upon them. “People do things their own way. I’ve had to battle a lot in my career and hopefully that will give me some good perspective to help the young guys. Langer leaves the field of battle with his brother-in-arms, Matthew Hayden. Langer has played 13 seasons of first-class cricket. Yet the renowned fitness fanatic shows no signs of shelving his trusty Kookaburra blade just yet. The fire still burns in Langer’s belly and even though he forms the ‘foundation’ of the Aussie team with Matt Hayden he will not rest on his laurels. “I don’t think you can ever get comfortable in the team,” the 33-year-old said. “The day I’ll retire from the game is that day I don’t think I can get any better. It’s nice to get the rewards and the results and that is just a product of me working harder and harder to get better and better all the time. “I still think I can get better and that is quite a motivating thing. While this was a good summer and there were some centuries I still think I can get more consistent and I can improve as a player both technically and mentally.” “If I get to a point where I feel that I can’t improve or that I don’t have the motivation to keep improving then that will be the time to call it a day. For me it’s not so much the fitness it’s more the desire and the motivation,” he said. “I remember when Cathy Freeman retired her comment was that she didn’t have the hunger to keep making the small sacrifices and a lot of people wouldn’t have understood what she really meant but I understood 100 per cent what she meant.” “The day I don’t have the hunger or the motivation to improve and to make the small sacrifices I guess that will the day that I call it quits.” With such a passion for the Baggy Green and such a love of playing the game that has made him a household name around the world Langer may well be wearing his creams into his forties. T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 19 Pura Cup 2003 - 2004 Retravision Warriors Season Review By Charlie Bull, WACA Statistician Match 1 WA v SA in Perth W.A. won the toss and sent South Australia in to bat, and the visitors were in early trouble at 4 for 50 before Greg Blewett (85) and Mick Miller (79) put on 165 for the fifth wicket to stem the tide. Jo Angel and Peter Worthington each claimed three wickets in the visitors first innings total of 327. In reply Western Australia was bundled out for 178, with Murray Goodwin playing a lone hand for 89. Shaun Tait and Paul Rofe shared the bowling honours with 4 for 61 and 3 for 31 respectively. Peter Worthington completed a good double with 6 for 59 in the South Australian second innings of 221, but Paul Rofe put paid to any hope of a WA victory, taking 5 for 89 in 26.2 overs and South Australia won by 56 runs. Match 2 – WA v NSW in Sydney In a match highlighted by an undefeated double century and three not out centuries, New South Wales won in the closing stages on the fourth day. WA batting first, compiled a total of 376 with Murray Goodwin leading the way with 201 not out which included 33 fours. Simon Katich held the New South Wales first innings together with 182 not out and in association with Nathan Pilon who contributed 78 in a sixth wicket partnership of 158, the total reached 436.

Andrew McDonald was the main wicket taker with 4 for 35 from 16 overs. Murray Goodwin cuts on his way to a record-breaking career-best season. 20 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r Victoria replied with 9 for 355 declared.

Tasmania made steady progress towards a first innings total, and a seventh wicket partnership of 116 between Sean Clingeleffer (79) and Damien Wright (65) helped considerably in its total of 380. Brad Williams finished with four wickets, and Callum Thorp took 3 for 59 from 22 overs. A second wicket partnership of 141 in 92 minutes between Chris Rogers (120) and Murray Goodwin(104 not out) gave WA the opportunity to declare at 5 for 329. In an exciting finish to the match, a fifth wicket partnership from Daniel Marsh (111 not out) and Michael Dighton (88) almost stole the show, but the game ended in a draw with the Tasmanian innings 7 for 386 at the close of play, a tantalising one run short of victory. Match 5 – WA v VIC in Perth In a disappointing first innings,WA collapsed to be dismissed for 151 before tea on day one, with Scott Meuleman (53) and Marcus North (31) offering some resistance with a third wicket partnership of 74. The Victorian batsmen then went on a run scoring spree. Matthew Elliott opened with 182, and Jon Moss (172 not out) and David Hussey (160 not out) shared an unfinished partnership of 309 in a total of 3 for 613 declared. Scott Meuleman completed a good double with 106, but the Victorian attack was not to be denied. Andrew McDonald took 6 for 67 from 16 overs and Victoria won by an innings and 158 runs. Match 6 – WA v QLD in Perth WA won the toss and elected to bat and after the loss of two early wickets, Chris Rogers (94) and Murray Goodwin (156) put on 147 for the third wicket.

NSW chasing 387 on the final day lost wickets at regular intervals and were dismissed for 260 to give WA an outright win by 126 runs. Match 8 – WA v TAS in Hobart WA relished the opportunity to bat first on the placid pitch at Bellerive to post an innings of 6 for 562 declared. Marcus North (118) and Murray Goodwin (77) put on 148 for the fourth wicket. Ryan Campbell followed with 134, and Kade Harvey with his maiden first class century of 100 not out shared a sixth wicket partnership of 189. In reply,Tasmania were also among the runs, with Shane Watson (139) and Michael Dighton (101) putting on 194 for the fourth wicket before the declaration at 5 for 384. T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 21 Justin Langer (84) and Marcus North (87) were the main scorers in the WA second innings of 6 for 270 declared. The prospect of an outright win for the Warriors was in sight, but some determined batting from Scott Mason (126) and Shane Watson (92) saw Tasmania hold on for a draw at 9 for 396. Match 9 – WA v QLD in Brisbane WA won the toss and put Queensland in to bat, and with some useful scores from Jimmy Maher (92) James Hopes (71) and Craig Phillipson (63) the total reached a respectable 362. John Taylor claimed 3 for 99, and Darren Wates and Kade Harvey each finished with two wickets. In another solid batting display Marcus North (130) Ryan Campbell (91) Chris Rogers (73) and Scott Meuleman (50) were prominent in the WA total of 523. Nathan Hauritz 4 for 95 and Andy Bichel 3 for 124 were the main wicket takers. Clint Perren (141) and Stuart Law (203) put on a record second wicket partnership of 369 and Queensland declared at 8 for 445. Darren Wates took the bowling honours with 4 for 77. Requiring 287 for victory,WA took up the challenge with Chris Rogers (119 not out) and Murray Goodwin (119) putting 234 for the third wicket to steer WA to an outright win by seven wickets in 201 minutes. Match 10 – WA v SA in Adelaide Marcus North made his third century of the season with 130 not out to take his tally for the season past 900 runs, and with support from Murray Goodwin (55) and Aaron Heal (33) the innings total reached 335. A maiden first class century from youthful Mark Cosgrove of 144 and 51 from Shane Deitz formed the backbone of the SA innings of 300. Brad Hogg claimed 3 for 66 and Marcus North finished with 2 for 17. The WA second innings was bolstered by an eighth wicket partnership of 119 between Brad Hogg (75) and Darren Wates who was unfortunately run out for 99 in the final total of 302. The SA innings was on target for outright victory when Ben Cameron (81) and Mark Cosgrove (88) put on 136 for the second wicket to take the total to 2 for 178, but a fine bowling spell from Ben Edmondson who claimed five wickets in his final seven overs to finish with 5 for 90 helped dismiss SA for 250, and WA won by 87 runs. Veteran all-rounder Kade Harvey was a constant thorn in the side of WA’s opposition whether he had the bat or the ball in his hand. 22 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r Behind every great team is a great sponsor.

The fiery farewell, replayed at the 1999-2000 Gold Cup dinner, brought down the house because it seemed so out of character for the normally genial figure. It was Jo Angel, of course, and it was blazingly clear that his passion for his team was bursting forth from every pore. But now Angel has ended his days in the black and gold after more than a decade sweating and straining in WA's cause. Not since Barry Shepherd, who in his later days would break into his trademark ditty lauding West Australians at every public appearance, has a WA player been so clearly identified as the bedrock of the State team. Angel maintained that spirit over 12 seasons, bringing him record-breaking hauls in interstate cricket, a brief Test career in a very strong era and the respect of teammates and opponents. He has retired to coaching, an everyday job and a full family life after WA's strong victory over NSW on Australia Day completed the circle of his career. It was against the Blues, who had Steve and Mark Waugh in that match at the WACA Ground as they were for the last time, that the gangling Hills youngster began his journey. Steve Waugh, who was standing at the non-striker's end when Angel got one past Mark Taylor with the first ball of his career, recalled a player who gave his all without stinting. “I really enjoyed playing with and against him,” Waugh said. “He was one of the favourite guys to play against. He gave 100 per cent every ball and, as an opposition player,you always heard him geeing up his teammates. He was always there.” Angel retired as WA's leading first-class wickettaker (485 at 25.10), the second highest in the interstate competition (419 at 24.86) and highest in domestic one-day games (94 at 26.85). L-R: Murray Goodwin, Justin Langer, Marcus North and Jo Angel enjoy a beer in the rooms after Jo’s final day. Angel played four Tests, having West Indian opener Desmond Haynes dropped in his first over, and took 10 wickets with a best of 3-54 in an Ashes Test at home in 1994-95. He was one of three batsmen run out in that match as Steve Waugh was stranded on 99 not out. “He was coming back for two but it was into the breeze and the big fella didn't quite get there,” Waugh said. Angel had an outstanding career based on an unbreakable will to succeed and unstinting ability to work without complaint. “I have always been a competitor,”Angel explained. “I didn't have any grand ideas about my personal ability but just tried to outlast. That's the game. It is not always the best player that wins. Steve Waugh is a testament to that. He is a good player but he has an iron will. “That is something I have always tried to do when I have had the ball in my hand - just outlast the opposition no matter what comes.” Confirming that bowling had little in common with rocket science, Angel said his success was based on thumping ball after ball at the top of off stump and worrying little about the distractions brought by captains, selectors or umpires. WA captain Justin Langer said he had always valued character over cover drives and it was the first trait that set Angel apart. Angel revealed that the highlights of his career, T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 31 Jo Angel is cheered off the WACA Ground for the final time during WA’s victory over NSW in January 2004. typically, were team oriented.They included WA's victory over Queensland in the Sheffield Shield final in Brisbane five years ago as well as the hard-fought win over NSW in his first season. “I didn't fully appreciate how hard it was to win one,” he recalled. “Justin and I jumped around like lunatics on the old table in the rooms and Terry Alderman, who was sitting on an old chair knackered at the end of the game, asked us: 'How many games have you buggers played?'. “Repaying the favour to Queensland (in 1998-99) after they had stuffed us here two years earlier was very satisfying and really stands out.” Angel said Victorian opener Matthew Elliott and Tasmanian Ricky Ponting, who plundered WA attacks several times before turning his sights on Test teams in recent years, were the toughest batsmen to bowl to. He also suffered a little disappointment when he ran out of partners after getting to 84 not out at the SCG 10 years ago. “Over the years people have pencilled me as a WACA only player so it was quite funny for about 10 years I had my best bowling and batting figures at the SCG,” he said. “It would have been nice to get a hundred but I did pretty well. It was Stuey MacGill's first game and Warren Wishart batted for a long while and we put on about 200 for the last three wickets anyway. We did pretty well.” 32 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r MacGill who roomed with Angel in that match, as he did each of the five times he was 12th man for WA, said he was a pillar of support. “He had a good, calm head on his shoulders and that has seen him through all the phases of his career,” MacGill said. “I couldn't think of a better player in a team to bring on the young blokes.” Jo Angel with the name plate that appeared on the famous WACA Ground scoreboard. Jo’s teammates signed the plate and presented it to him after his final match. ING Cup Results 2003 - 2004 By Charlie Bull, WACA Statistician WA v SA, Perth, 24 October 2004 Western Australia won the toss and elected to bat and made the most of the opportunity in compiling 5 for 293 from its 50 overs. Michael Hussey (67) and Murray Goodwin (58) shared a fourth wicket partnership of 118, and other useful scores came from Ryan Campbell (42) and Chris Rogers (40). Apart from a century partnership for the third wicket of 102 between Shane Deitz (60) and Andy Flower (54), the WA attack retained control. Beau Casson, 4 for 31 from 10 overs, and newcomer Michael Thistle with 3 for 32 shared the bowling honours in the South Australian total of 194. WA v NSW, North Sydney, 2 November 2003 A third wicket partnership of 157 between Chris Rogers (75) and Michael Hussey (106) in 90 minutes was the highlight of the WA innings. Maintaining the run rate WA was able to reach 5 for 280 in 196 minutes. The only multiple wicket taker was Matthew Nicholson with 2 for 62 from his 10 overs. In the New South Wales innings, rain interrupted play on two occasions and under the revised target of 246 from 41 overs, Steve Waugh with 101 not out steered NSW to a four wicket win from 38.3 overs. WA v SA Adelaide, 9 November 2003 Western Australia won the toss and put South Australia in to bat with the home side making steady progress towards a competitive score. Andy Flower (74), Mark Cosgrove (50) and Greg Blewett (49) were the main contributors in the final total of 7 for 262, while Kade Harvey claimed 3 for 39 from his 10 overs. Following the early dismissal of Ryan Campbell from the first ball of the innings, the WA batting took charge. Justin Langer (31) and Marcus North (63) put on 87 for the second wicket and an unfinished partnership of 153 from Michael Hussey (84 not out) with Murray Goodwin (80 not out) steered the Warriors to a comfortable victory with three overs to spare. Michael Hussey, a stunning 106 in ninety minutes against New South Wales. 34 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r WA v Tasmania, Perth, 5 December 2003 Tasmania won the toss and elected to bat, and were in early trouble, losing four wickets for 38, with John Taylor claiming 2 for 13 in his first four overs. Shane Watson and Sean Clingeleffer came to the rescue with 63 and 48 respectively to help take the final score to 9 for 193. Kade Harvey finished with 3 for 49 in the closing stages, after rain had stopped play for 45 minutes. Western Australia made an aggressive start to the run chase with Ryan Campbell contributing 42 from 42 balls in 58 minutes. Marcus North followed with a sound innings of 75 not out, after a slump in the middle order and WA won by three wickets to gain a bonus point in 36.2 overs. WA v Victoria, Perth, 18 December 2003 The Victorian attack made early inroads into the strong WA batting line-up, claiming three wickets for 19 before Justin Langer (115) and Murray Goodwin (39) steadied the innings with a fourth wicket partnership of 104. Marcus North, who finished on 84 not out and Langer combined to take the score to 209 and Kade Harvey added 21 not out in the final total of 5 for 270. Apart from Matthew Elliott (59) and a late rally by Andrew McDonald with 55 not out, the WA attack held sway. John Taylor, Peter Worthington and Brad Hogg each claimed three wickets in dismissing Victoria for 169 in 44.2 overs. WA v Queensland, Perth, 9 January 2004 Queensland won the toss and made a promising start with a first wicket partnership of 75 between Jimmy Maher (35) and Stuart Law (39) in 60 minutes. Martin Love followed with an innings of 110 not out in 142 minutes and James Hopes contributed 46 to the final total of 5 for 297 in 203 minutes. After the early loss of two wickets, Chris Rogers and Justin Langer combined in a whirlwind partnership of 160 in 83 minutes to take the initiative. Rogers finished on 117 not out and WA won by 7 wickets with 3.4 overs to spare. WA v NSW, Perth, 21 January 2004 New South Wales won the toss and elected to bowl and were rewarded with two early wickets for 24. John Taylor, promoted to bat at number three and Mike Hussey with 34 and 69 respectively then shared a partnership of 44, and with some useful scorers in the lower order WA finished with a competitive total of 237 from 49.1 overs. Stuart MacGill claimed 3 for 46 from his 10 overs. The WA bowlers made early inroads into the New South Wales innings, taking 3 for 31 in the first 40 minutes. Steve Waugh (42) and Aaron O’Brien, who finished on 62 not out, added some respectability to the score. Wickets fell steadily as NSW were finally dismissed for 214. Darren Wates returned the best figures to take 2 for 23 from his 10 overs. WA v Tasmania, Launceston, 1 February 2004 After an opening partnership of 79 in 73 minutes between Michael Dighton (48) and Michael Di Venuto (25) the WA bowling contingent maintained control. Michael Clark, Aaron Heal and Marcus North each claimed two wickets and the total was restricted to 8 for 215 from 48 overs including a rain delay. The WA innings was curtailed by persistent rain and only 9 minutes play was possible before the match was abandoned. WA v Queensland, Brisbane, 13 February 2004 An opening partnership of 194 in 99 minutes between Jimmy Maher and Stuart Law set the standard for a record score in the Australian domestic One-Day Competition. Maher (187) and Law (95) supported by Andy Bichel (41) and Martin Love (38) combined to record a total of 4 for 405 in 207 minutes from 50 overs. Michael Hussey (66) and Kade Harvey (43) made useful contributions but faced with such a mammoth total,WA was dismissed for 198. WA v Victoria, Melbourne, 21 February 2004 Victoria won the toss and elected to bowl, and the decision was quickly justified when WA was in early trouble, losing 4 for 47. Murray Goodwin (64) and Marcus North who finished on 54 not out offered some resistance to help carry the total to 8 for 251. The Victorian innings got away to a solid start with an opening partnership of 141 in 84 minutes between Jon Moss (54) and Matthew Elliott (72) and Brad Hodge followed with 52 before Peter Worthington claimed three wickets in his final three overs to finish with 3 for 45 from 7 overs. Kade Harvey claimed 2 for 32 but Victoria won with 8 for 252 from 40 overs. T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 35 THE SHEIK OF SPEAK. Cometti talks cricket. Nine News 6.00pm weeknights.

Kade Harvey then took a hand in proceedings to claim both openers in the space of two overs. The WA attack then steadied to slow the scoring rate, and when Marcus North’s off-spin removed the dangerous Clint Perren for 57, wickets began to fall at regular intervals. Harvey finished with 4 for 28 and with support from Paul Wilson (2 for 39) and Marcus North (2 for 17), Queensland was dismissed for 244, the last seven wickets falling for 104. The WA innings started on a bright note with an opening partnership of 67, with Scott Meuleman leading the way on 71, while Marcus North followed with 32. In a middle order collapse WA lost 4 for 47 and the run rate required climbed to alarming proportions. Kade Harvey was joined by Darren Wates out in the middle and despite the rising run rate they made steady progress to the point where Andy Bichel and James Hopes were unable to bowl in the last few overs, suffering from cramp. Clint Perren took over from Hopes and in the space of 9 deliveries conceded 22 runs to give WA an exciting win with three balls to spare. Man of the match Kade Harvey finished on 53 not out and Wates who struck a huge six and a four off Perren’s final over to clinch victory shared an unbroken partnership of 75. Marcus North prepares to embrace Darren Wates after his last over heroics.

Zimbabwe used the three-day match as a tune up for the October Test match at the WACA Ground. Zimbabwe batted first and WA had them on the ropes early at 5-89 thanks to veterans Jo Angel and Paul Wilson. Craig Wishart made an even 100 before Captain Heath Streak (45) and Andy Blignaut (57) dragged the visitors up to 330.With only three days to force an outright result the Warriors declared early at 6-207. Zimbabwe crawled along to 6-146 from 49.4 overs before declaring and leaving the Warriors a target of 270 in just 38 overs. The WA batsmen were in the game at 1-160 in the 26th over.The Warriors never gave up the chase but were four runs short when the final ball was bowled. Zimbabwe took the first class RE/MAX Cup as they were ahead on first innings points. The limited overs RE/MAX Cup clash in January was a more one-sided affair as WA batted first in the 50-over per side game. Scott Meuleman continued his excellent season with 67 from 79 balls. Murray Goodwin (77) was at his best in the middle overs and Brad Hogg (48) led WA to a sizeable 9-286. Wickets fell at regular intervals for the Zimbabweans as they struggled to come to terms with the disciplined WA attack. The wickets were shared and Paul Wilson was particularly effective. Only Mark Vermeulen (55) put up any real resistance and the result was never in doubt. Zimbabwe were all out for 216 handing WA victory by 70 runs.This also meant WA won the limited-overs RE/MAX Cup for the first time. ZIM 330 (Wishart 100,Wilson 4-41) and 4 dec for 146 drew with WA 6 dec for 207 (North 59) and 4-266 (Hussey 79) WA 9/286 (Goodwin 77, Meuleman 67) defeated Zimbabwe 216 (Vermeulen 55, Ervine 5-56) Play Cricket in England for Money, without the hassle!!

The visitors, sent into bat, were seemingly over-awed by the occasion, and were dismissed for 97. The Australian fast attack wreaked havoc, with Glenn McGrath 3 for 20 and Brett Lee 3 for 23 the main wicket takers. Darren Lehmann (110), Steve Waugh (100 not out) and 71 from opener Justin Langer ensured Australia posted a big score with a declaration being made at 7 for 407. Waugh’s innings further enhanced his reputation in completing the unique of having scored a century against each Test playing nation. Mashrafe Mortaza showed some potential in taking 3 for 74 from 23 overs. Bangladesh made a better showing in the second innings. Bashar (54), Al-Shahriar (36) and Sarkar (35) were the main scorers in the total of 178. Stuart McGill finished with 5 for 65 as Australia coasted to an outright win. Second Test – Cairns Another first for Australian cricket with Cairns hosting the second Test. Bangladesh was again asked to bat, and showed further improvement to reach a total of 295. Sarkar (76), Bashar (46), Hossain (46) and Mashud (44) were the main contributors. Stuart MacGill was again among the wickets with 5 for 77. Jason Gillespie bowled with great pace to claim 3 for 57. Australia then went on the rampage posting 4 for 556 declared in 566 minutes. Matthew Hayden and Ricky Ponting posted half centuries before Darren Lehman led the charge with 177 and Steve Waugh 156 not out and Martin Love 100 not out contributed an unfinished partnership of 184 in the final total. In their second innings, Bangladesh collapsed to be dismissed for 163, with the only innings of note to come from Sarkar. His 55 gave him two half centuries for the match. Stuart MacGill completed a ten wicket haul with 5 for 56. Gillespie was again a handful and cleaned up the tail to finish with 4 for 38. 44 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r The Bangladeshi attack was no match for a fired-up Darren Lehmann who belted a century in each Test.

Following the dismissal of Justin Langer, with the score on 43, Matthew Hayden continued to share partnerships including the fourth wicket 207 with Steve Waugh (78) and the sixth wicket 233 in 140 minutes with Adam Gilchrist (113 not out). Hayden went on to create his own piece of history in recording the highest individual test score, breaking the record previously held by Brian Lara. The West Indian reclaimed the record when he belted 400 against England later that season. In 622 minutes Hayden scored 380 runs with 38 fours and 11 sixes.Australia declared at 6 for 735, with Sean Ervine the most successful bowler taking 4 for 146. Zimbabwe was then dismissed for 239, with Brett Lee and Jason Gillespie each taking three wickets. In the follow on, the visitors lost 7 for 126 before the tail offered some-resistance to take the total to 321. Heath Streak finished with 71 not out, and Andy Bichel claimed 4 for 63 from 28.2 overs. Second Test – Sydney Zimbabwe won the toss and elected to bat and after losing three early wickets, Stuart Carlisle came to the rescue with a timely century (118 in 298 minutes). Andy Blignaut remained on 30 not out in the final total of 308.The Australian bowling attack was shared by Andy Bichel (4 for 66) and Brett Lee, Brad Williams and Brad Hogg each claiming two wickets. Ricky Ponting was the mainstay of the Australian inning with 169, while Steve Waugh (61) and Simon Katich (52) added support in the total of 403. Ray Price claimed 6 for 121 from 41.3 overs and Andy Blignaut lent support with 3 for 83. Katich completed a good double by taking 6 for 65 from 25.5 overs in the Zimbabwe modest total of 266 in the second inning. Australia reached the target of 172 with the loss of only one wicket. Matthew Hayden ( 101 not out) and Ricky Ponting (53 not out) shared a second wicket partnership of 151. Matthew Hayden celebrates his historic innings against Zimbabwe at the WACA Ground in October 2004. His 380 was a Test record until reclaimed by Brian Lara months later.

It experiences mild summers and is not accustomed to cyclonic conditions. Yet a tempest arrived hot on the heals of Adam Gilchrist in game four of the 2003-2004 VB Series and Zimbabwe’s bowlers were caught in a whirlwind of unimaginable proportions. Gilchrist’s whirlwind innings of 172 had Heath Streak’s men running for cover and looking for the nearest storm proof structure. His innings lasted 126 balls, included 13 fours and three sixes and was a stunning reminder of Gilchrist’s ability to win matches off his own bat. Astoundingly Gilchrist sees himself as a wicketkeeper first, and batsman second. He feels that he is in the Australian Test and One-day team as a keeper so that is where he focuses the majority of his energy. “I personally think that the ‘keeping’ is my most important aspect as I’m the only wicket-keeper in the team,” Gilchrist said. “I have to try and uphold the standard that has been set prior to me coming in. Ian Healy set a pretty high standard. It’s an 80/20 split towards keeping, that’s the training time I put into those skills and honing them. “I don’t think I am an overly natural wicket-keeper. I’m a bit taller than the average wicket-keeper. I’ve had to work harder at that than I’ve had to work at my batting and that’s not to say that my batting is neglected or that I am so naturally gifted that I don’t need to work at that. “That’s the balance that I have found gives me the best opportunity to perform to the best of my ability.” Gilchrist was recognised as the Australian One-day Cricketer of 2003 at the Alan Border Medal Dinner earlier this year.The 32-year-old made 1098 runs in 2003 at an average of 38. Gilchrist won the award for the second year in a row and was also the 2003 Allan Border Medallist. He then won a record sixth CUB Gold Cup as Western Australia’s top player of season 2003-2004. Gilchrist has won more Gold Cup’s then any other player. “It felt strange to be standing up their receiving the award considering I only played one match for the Warriors during the season,” he said. 50 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r Gilchrist’s trademark hook caused headaches for the Indians during the VB Series. “But hopefully in the years to come I will be able to play more cricket for WA.” Gilchrist believes his body is holding up to the rigours of playing both forms of the game and that retirement is still a while away. “My hands are pretty good and I’ve never broken a finger,” Gilchrist said. “My body is in pretty good condition. About five or six years ago my knees were giving me a bit of grief and I thought I might have to have surgery to correct any deficiencies there. “A good maintenance program devised by the team management has got me working really well and changed a few things in my training that I was doing. My knees are still fine and basically fingers crossed it stays that way. “Hopefully I will be able to make a decision on when to finish playing not on how the body’s going but when I have had enough and accomplished the things I want to. “I feel as if I’ve got a few more years of cricket but your mind moves forward to what you are going to be doing. I’m past the half-way point of my career so you have to start thinking about the future.” Gilchrist never set out with the lofty ambitions of playing cricket for Australia. He just wanted to play cricket for a living. “When you have to go out and have a week of work experience at school I never did it,” he said. KOOKABURRA www.kooka.com.au Get Geton onboard boardthe thewinning winningteam team “They didn’t take my application to go on tour with the Australian cricket team for a week! That’s all I wanted to do really. All I wanted to do was play cricket. I just had this dream of playing cricket for a job and playing to the best of my ability and getting as far as I could.” Gilchrist has witnessed first-hand the biggest change in Australian cricket in the past 20 years, the Captaincy of Steve Waugh and his subsequent retirement. Waugh took principles from One-day cricket and transplanted them in the Test arena. Gilchrist led the way in Waugh’s ultra-attacking ethos and has made numerous run-a-ball hundreds in Test and One-day cricket. Now Gilchrist is deputy to apprentice Captain Ricky Ponting and he believes that the Tasmanian has what it takes to build on Waugh’s legacy. “I think Ricky’s style of captaincy in general has come through in one-day cricket,” he said. “He is very similar to Steven in his principles in regards to the team and the standards that he sets. I think tactically in Test cricket Ricky has learnt so much about being positive and aggressive in his captaincy from Steven. I think what he has learnt is there are times when you need to be a bit more defensive. Sw ord Diab lo Kahuna Belta KOOKABURRA KOOKABURRA SPORT SPORT “It is just not in Steve Waugh’s nature to go on the defence, he attacks at all costs. Steven would keep going for the jugular and Ricky was happy to bide his time and realise that you can win a Test match in the last hour of day five whereas Steven would like to get in there and dust it off as Gilchrist celebrates a wicket on Australia’s quick as possible.” gruelling tour of Sri Lanka. Gilchrist is the most marketable cricketer in Australia and the most lucrative opportunities lie on the east coast. Yet Gilchrist and his wife Melinda are firmly ensconced in their leafy Perth surrounds and would be reticent to move once Gilchrist decides to hang up his gloves. “Mel and I would love to stay in WA, we really enjoy it here. We love it we’re set up here so we would be really keen to stay,” he said. T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 51 Openers Maul Tourists in VB Series By Shaun Taylor, WACA Communications Manager THE flashing blades of Adam Gilchrist and Matthew Hayden combined to smash nearly 1000 runs in Australia’s victorious VB series campaign in early 2004. The dashing left-handers were the dominant players in the series leaving the Indian and Zimbabwean bowlers powerless against their might in the limitedovers matches. The Gilchrist-Matthew Hayden combination produced 923 runs with three centuries and four fifties between them. Gilchrist’s highest score of 172 against Zimbabwe in Hobart is the highest individual One-day international score ever made in Australia. Australia’s only loss in the qualifying matches was to India in Brisbane. Zimbabwe was out of its depth against two of the super powers in world cricket. They went winless in the series but unearthed a potential star in Sean Ervine. The left-handed 21year-old made 265 runs at an average of 44.16 including his maiden One-day international century against India in Adelaide. To prove his all-round worth Ervine also took 12 wickets at 30.08 apiece with his right-arm medium pace. Zimbabwe captain Heath Steak was at his indomitable best with 15 wickets at an average of 52 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 22.53. He was the third highest wicket-taker in the series behind Brad Williams (16 at 16.66) and Indian teenage left-arm paceman Irfan Pathan (16 at 31.06). Williams took a career-best 5-22 against Zimbabwe in Sydney and heralded his confirmation as a top line international fast-bowler. Australia met India in a lop-sided best-of-three finals series. Game one at the MCG saw India’s batsmen struggle with the loss of Sachin Tendulkar,VVS Laxman and Rahul Dravid before the score had reached 50. The powerful Aussie line-up coasted to India’s total of 222 with seven wickets in hand and 10 overs to spare. Game two was even more of a whitewash as the home team posted a record 5-359 with Hayden (126 from 122 balls ) and Andrew Symonds (66 from 39) decimating the Indians. Symonds confirmed his reputation as arguably the cleanest striker of the ball in world cricket. The Aussie quicks had India on the ropes early and they were never in with a chance.They were dismissed for 151 giving Australia victory by 208 runs.

Flashback Headline - 4 March 2003: Hussey dropped from WA team to play Victoria Latest Headline - 1 February 2004: Hussey replaces Bevan for clash against India at WACA Ground Mike Hussey can reflect with pride and admiration on not only the success he achieved with the bat during season 2003-04, but also the maturity and courage he showed in conquering the biggest challenge of his career so far. After being dropped from the WA team for the final Pura Cup match of 2002-03, it was no secret and quite obvious that Hussey was being put on notice by the WA selectors and strategically placed at the cross-roads of his career. Although 2002-03 had been a disappointing season by the prolific left-hander’s lofty standards, with just 336 Pura Cup runs at an average of 33.60, it was a far from disgraceful performance. However, by placing him in the cold, the WA selectors gave Hussey plenty to think about during the winter. Instead of freezing them out and spitting the dummy, the then 27 year old chose self reflection as his preferred method of recovery. Hussey moved on from the disappointment faster than any one of the many quick singles that he’s scampered while at the batting crease for WA. 62 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r “It was a confusing time for me being dropped from the WA team then being selected to play for Australia A not long after it”, Hussey said. “Although there was speculation around that I was considering leaving WA, I never seriously considered it because I wasn’t playing that well and in a way deserved to be dropped. “Instead of blaming other people for my situation the best thing for me was to look at what I was doing - so that’s what I did.” As the dust settled on a turbulent season in WA cricket, Hussey left the controversy behind to join Northamptonshire and play a third consecutive season on the county circuit. With the time away came objectivity and time to reach the realisation that he was playing out of his natural mould in an effort to become something other than what his natural instincts told him to be. “I was desperate to play for Australia and tried imitating the batting of the guys who were already in the Australian team,” he said. “I thought that if I was going to play at the next level, then I needed to bat like Gilchrist, Hayden, Martyn, Ponting or even Justin Langer who was belting the bowling at the top of the order. “Everyone was batting so well and scoring at an incredible rate I thought that’s what I should be doing too. “It sounded good in theory but each time I tried to deliberately accelerate the scoring rate, I ended up getting myself out and because of that frustration built. “After the season ended I thought long and hard about what I was doing wrong and how to improve things, then spoke to Allan Border about some of my conclusions. “Allan really listened and when I told him I was going to start batting like Mike Hussey again, he told me it was the most intelligent thing he’d ever heard me say.” Hussey’s conscious decision to embrace his natural instincts led to improved performances in both the Pura and ING Cup competitions. While far from being stodgy at the crease, Hussey’s role in the WA team and the key to his success had always been his ability to concentrate and bat for long periods of time. When Hussey employed those skills, he became the rock around which the WA team batted and, as he dug in and ground out a solid start, his more flamboyant team-mates used the foundation to launch from. As Hussey returned to his batting roots, it was no coincidence that WA again experienced team success in season 2003-04. With the team able to grow around him,mutual success prospered as the Wayne Clark philosophy re-guided the Warrior’s team and their individual directions. WA’s victory in the ING Cup was an incredible feat of determination and self-belief of which Hussey played a critical role with not only the bat, but also as Captain in the back-from-the-dead final. Hussey was WA’s leading run scorer in the ING Cup competition last season, with 426 runs at an average of 60.85 from 8 innings at a strike rate of 90.44 and a highest score of 106 against NSW at the WACA Ground. In a show of his true all-round ability Hussey even kept wicket occasionally and chipped in with his seamers to claim seven wickets off 27.3 overs. He also scored 752 Pura cup runs at an average of 41.77 and played a Captain’s knock and a season high score of 138 against Tasmania at the WACA Ground.That was his first century at the ground in two years. By being himself Hussey improved his performances and with that naturally attracted the much wanted attention he was previously seeking from the national selectors. It was ironic that an injury to Michael Bevan led to Hussey’s selection in the Australian team for the VB series clash against India at the WACA Ground on 1 February. During the season many critics had responded to both Hussey’s amazing one-day form and to Bevan’s decline in form with suggestions that the veteran New South Welshman should move on and make way for the talented West Australian. Either way, Hussey earned his opportunity and was left wanting more after experiencing the thrill of a life-time playing for Australia on debut in front of a pro-Hussey crowd. “The crowd were right behind me and the atmosphere was amazing, in fact the whole experience was awesome”, Hussey said. “When I batted the team was in a good position so there was not too much pressure to absorb. Michael Hussey raises hit bat in triumph after posting a century against NSW in Sydney in November 2003. “I had plenty of time to get the runs and to top it off Simon Katich batted with me at the other end so really it couldn’t have been any better.” To cap off his spectacular season and reversal in fortunes, Hussey was awarded a Cricket Australia contract for 2004-05, earning recognition that again hints of higher honours. Having re-discovered himself as a cricketer and passed through the dangerous crossroads that often claim the careers of those less equipped to deal with the challenge, Mike Hussey is now on the right pathway and in the midst of a career destined for greater heights. T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 63 Second XI Season Wrap By Ben Oliver THE next generation of Western Australian cricketers continued to be nurtured in the Cricket Australia Cup, with several young guns getting their first taste of the domestic competition. Despite WA not having a great deal of success, the number of players rotated through the system gave WA selectors a wide net from which to draw talent from in coming years, with 29 cricketers pulling on the WA Second XI creams. In game one against Victoria, WA lost on the first innings and narrowly avoided an outright loss in a close encounter at Richardson Park in October. WA then hosted Tasmania at the WACA Ground in October and won its first points of the season, before coming within a whisker of losing outright. Two half-centuries by Kade Harvey and a sevenwicket haul for Callum Thorp was insufficient to stop a rampaging Queensland side pluck six points in their 136-run victory at the Gabba in November. With game four against New South Wales a wash-out, WA travelled to Adelaide to take on South Australia. A superlative batting display from Scott Meuleman in that match was not enough to earn the WA Second XI six points in that match. It took all summer, but the Western Australian Second XI side finally secured its first outright victory in the Cricket Australia Cup by blitzing the ACT Second XI in just three days. After posting 8-424 in their first innings, WA required just over a day to dismiss the ACT for 167 and 168 to complete an exhilarating innings and 89-run outright victory. Adam Voges continued his brilliant Vodafone Cup form to compile a steady 124 and together with fellow Retravision Warriors teammate Shaun Marsh (54) produced a match winning 103-run 4th wicket stand. Following WA’s batting blitzkrieg, Subiaco-Floreat quick Sam Howman wasted no time, taking a wicket in his first over and finishing with 6-36. Former ACT cricketer and now Warrior rookie Andrew James relished the chance to bowl at his old comrades, claiming 3-33. The ACT fared little better in their second innings, compiling one solitary run to their first innings total of 167. James was again a model of consistency taking 3-23. Brilliant form from Scott Meuleman in the Cricket Australia Cup led to a berth in WA’s victorious ING Cup winning team.

Highlighted by outstanding batting, close catching, and steady bowling efforts, the team finished in a very creditable third (3rd) position. A number of top order batsmen celebrated with aggregates of over 300 runs including opener Rhys May (376 at 75), Captain Theo Doropoulos (352 at 59) and aggressive Luke Pomersbach (324 at 54). Subsequently Doropoulos was selected in the Australian Under-19 side for the Youth World Cup in Bangladesh. 37 catches were held, many of which were behind or close to the wicket. Keeper Brad Spark (14) and slippers Doropoulos (6) and Matt Johnston (4) set a very high standard. The bowlers worked well as a unit and with a little more attention to economy in one day cricket may have recorded even better figures. Paceman Sam Hogg (10 wickets at 24) and Corry Verco (9 at 17) combined well. But, it was the free scoring batsmen that captured the eyes of onlookers and most pleasing were their appetites for big individual totals. Of the four (4) centuries scored, all were in excess of 147 – May 162 & 161 in successive matches, Doropoulos (163) and Pomersbach (147) in one day matches. The big test and confirmation of exactly where WA sits in youth cricket looms next season with two day matches scheduled against New South Wales, South Australia and Victoria.

WA began the Championship in Pool B with Tasmania, the ACT and the Northern Territory. After a good victory against Tasmania, a rain affected loss against the ACT and a draw against Northern Territory attempting to chase 340 in the 60 available overs,WA were ranked 3rd in their pool. This meant that a victory was required against the Northern Territory in the semi-final to earn a place in a final to determine the 3rd place-getter in the championship and seal an elevation into the top pool for next season. Batting first, Tom Barratt and Rob Fairchild steered WA to a very solid start, which culminated in a total of 293. In reply the Northern Territory was dismissed for 185 resulting in a convincing victory, due mainly to excellent bowling by Tom Whitlock and Chris Hansberry. WA’s final match for 3rd place in the Championship was at Adelaide Oval No 2 against South Australia. Due to the pooling system, South Australia would only require a draw to retain their place in the top pool.Western Australia batted first and posted a competitive 253 with an outstanding innings of 92 from Greg Beresi. In reply, South Australia could only manage 210, with the highlight of this innings a match winning 5 wicket haul by Hansberry.This victory has now secured WA a place in the top pool for next season.

W.A. State Government A constructive dialogue has been maintained by your Board and management with the Premier of Western Australia, the Hon Dr Geoff Gallop MLA and successive Ministers’ for Sport and Recreation, Mr Alan Carpenter MLA and Mr Bob Kucera MLA to represent the interests of the WACA and cricket whenever the opportunity has arisen during the past twelve months. Dr Gallop has a keen knowledge and interest in cricket and it was very much appreciated when he entertained and acknowledged the Retravision Warriors ING Cup winning team at a special function in the Premier’s office in March. It has also been a pleasure to make welcome the Premier and Mrs Gallop, along with other State Government Ministers at WACA Dinners or fixtures whenever their schedule of Parliamentary or Community commitments permitted. Sport and Recreation WA The WACA continues to enjoy very much appreciated financial support from the Department of Sport and Recreation through its various funding mechanisms that assist in many of our community cricket programs. Management and the Board have also engaged the Department in many discussions on facilities needs for the WACA and these discussions led to the creation of a formal funding support application lodged with DSR, consistent with the State Sporting Facilities Funding program.That same arm of DSR is also very proactive in forming a working party to examine the future needs of the entire cricket community in Western Australia. We maintain an extremely cordial relationship with the Director of the Department of Sport and Recreation, Ron Alexander and his senior staff including Greg McLennan, Rob Didcoe, Steve Mason and Steve Humphreys, and we are very appreciative of their collective support and assistance. East Perth Redevelopment Authority The planning responsibility vested to the East Perth Redevelopment Authority by the State Government provides their jurisdiction within our immediate precinct, requires the WACA to have constant interaction with the Executive and staff of EPRA. They have always been forthcoming with advice and assistance as and when needed, something that is becoming more and more important as the WACA Ground continues to realise much of its commercial potential as a consequence of its strategic location and versatility. Our appreciation is extended to EPRA CEO Tony Morgan for his leadership in these matters and to his support staff and Board. EPRA also regulate the master planning of the Eastern Gateway of which the WACA is an integral component. The masterplan has undergone an extensive period of public consultation and is due for release shortly. This is likely to foreshadow some major changes in our immediate proximity in the future, all of which renders the continuity of this harmonious relationship an extremely strategic one for the WACA. City of Perth One of the Association’s most valued long term relationships has been with the City of Perth. The year under review again had many instances where the WACA has cause to express appreciation to the City of Perth. In addition to advice and planning for major cricket fixtures in the context of parking, traffic movement and health approvals, the WACA has frequently needed the advice and support of various officers and departments within the City of Perth as we ensured our compliance with community standards and ordinances in the conduct of concerts during the year. We extend our thanks to City of Perth CEO Frank Edwards for his leadership and guidance in these issues as well as that of his Board, individual Councillors and staff when they have been required to reach approval decisions within very limited time frames. Transperth WACA Ground patrons continued to use public transport in increasing numbers when attending major cricket matches during the 2003-2004 cricket season. This pleasing trend is very much attributable to the planning by the WACA and Transperth for Test and One Day Internationals, enabling match patrons to enjoy free public transport to and from T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 71 the WACA Ground in conjunction with their ground entry ticket. The WACA is also grateful for the extra transport services provided by Transperth on all major match or event days at the WACA Ground and for the spirit of co-operation in which their management react to a whole range of WACA related requests. The Lord’s Taverners WA Lord’s Taverners WA is one of the strongest Australian chapters of this highly respected institution. It possesses a strongly committed and well credentialled Executive Committee aligned to a loyal and supportive Membership. The WACA extend thanks and appreciation to Lord’s Taverners WA Executive who have responded so positively to the many requests made of them by the WACA during the year under review. This has included an extremely generous contribution of $25 000 towards an urgently needed refurbishment of the Lord’s Taverners Indoor Cricket Centre. Long serving Chairman Barrie Hudson and Secretary Harry Sorensen AO MBE relinquished their posts at the 2004 Annual General Meeting in favour of very capable replacements of Leo Crohan and Mike Snell respectively. We are pleased to relate that Harry’s influence and support still remains within Lords Taverners WA as does that of highly respected President John Moody AM. Lord’s Taverners various programs assist disadvantaged and deserving young cricketers, many of whom reside and play in remote areas of WA. Their financial contributions and recognition provide indigenous and physically handicapped youngsters with a better opportunity to achieve career dreams and ambitions. The Junior Lord’s Taverners, Lord’s Taverners Vintage Cricketer and The Lord’s Taverner Spirit of Cricket Awards are all now prestigious traditions much revered by the annual recipients. The Carbine Club of WA The Carbine Club is a nationally constituted body with similar aims and objectives to that of the Lord’s Taverners. As a result of the Club’s annual grant to the WACA, we were able to provide an opportunity for six talented youngsters identified from the 2004 Junior Country Week competition to attend a week long Justin Langer live-in Coaching Clinic earlier this year. We also thank The Carbine Club of WA for the conduct of the Carbine Club of WA Annual Cricket Luncheon held Friday March 26 2004. 72 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r This splendid cricket occasion paid tribute to the 25th anniversary of the formation of World Series Cricket with special guests Dennis Lillee, Graham McKenzie and Rob Langer entertaining and enlightening some 250 guests with anecdotes from that ground breaking era. The Carbine Club Luncheon also showcases District Cricket and further acknowledged through Carbine Club of WA trophies, the Olly Cooley Medal Winner and The Carbine Club of WA /Allan Edwards Annual Award. The WACA convey thanks to successive Carbine Club of WA Presidents Garry Cossill and John Baguley along with long term Secretary Lloyd Meredith for their Club’s support of cricket Western Australian Trotting Association The WACA continues to enjoy the much valued long term friendship and support of the WATA. Their willingness to assist our patrons with parking resources on match days is greatly appreciated. Our thanks are extended to CEO Rob Bovell, Operations Manager Frank Coleman, President Gary Scott and the WATA Executive Committee for their ongoing co operation. Management of the WACA and the WATA attended several planning forums under the facilitation of EPRA and Trinity College during the year. Because of our respective locations, history and Membership structure, it was helpful to exchange information of common interest with them particularly in regard to the East Perth Gateway Precinct master planning consultation processes that continue to evolve. Trinity College The splendid relationship that the WACA has been fortunate to enjoy with Trinity College over many years was again very much appreciated during the year under review. We are extremely grateful to Trinity College for making their sports oval available for patron parking and for television outside broadcast vans and attendant infrastructure during the Test and One Day International matches. After a long and distinguished period of tenure as headmaster of Trinity, Tony Curtis retired at the conclusion of the 2003 school year. Already the WACA have established a positive relationship with his successor Peter Botha wherein synergies have been identified that can continue to benefit each of our institutions.This report also acknowledges the support and assistance of Mike Burgess the Bursar at Trinity College. A State symbol of first-class play. And work. The rejuvenated WACA Ground continues to be the home of the highest cricket ideals, and our team is delighted to have helped develop the bright future the facility now represents.

Our objective is to develop business relationships to such a point that they become true ‘partnerships’, not merely business transactions. The beauty of being associated with sport, especially our number one summer sport of cricket, is that it immediately lends the company positive associations in the public eye. A number of new partnerships have developed this season, most notably the major sponsorship of the Warriors by Retravision. PLATINUM PARTNERS Retravision Public recognition of the new partnership with Retravision in its first year was phenomenal, with an independent survey revealing 85% of respondents were aware of Retravision’s association with our State team. We are pleased that Retravision was able to enjoy an extremely successful first year of association with the newly named Retravision Warriors. Retravision have been tremendously supportive of the team, its individual players and the Association and reacted very positively to leveraging opportunities, including a sponsored promotion of the ING Cup against New South Wales on January 21. Dubbed ‘Waugh at the WACA’ in honour of Steven and Mark Waugh’s last playing appearance at our venue, the day attracted nearly 18,000 cricket lovers, 16 of whom went home with a DVD player, courtesy of Retravision’s game day promotion. We are very grateful to Retravision and their senior management for their substantial contribution and commitment to cricket in Western Australia via their sponsorship and we look forward to continuing to build on this important partnership and to further mutual successes. Carlton & United Beverages This was the third year of the Carlton & United Breweries partnership with the WACA as a Platinum Level sponsor. By promoting the Carlton Mid Strength brand actively at the WACA Ground and throughout the Association via pourage rights at all WACA affiliated District Cricket Clubs, CUB are achieving significant market recognition with cricket in Western Australia.This fact emphatically confirmed in the aforementioned market survey. The historic WACA scoreboard is now branded with the Carlton Mid image, and when aligned with a considerable investment in signage around the ground and in various bar facilities, are all complementary to that strategy and outcomes.The WACA express appreciation to Graeme Wood and CUB management for their substantial involvement in and contribution to Western Australian cricket. DIAMOND PARTNERS Healthway promoting SunSmart Our partnership with Healthway promoting the SunSmart message traversed the second year of a three year agreement. Special focus on the SunSmart junior cricket program in Season 2003-04 saw some great results achieved by our Cricket Development Officers in the delivery of the SunSmart message. Through a concerted effort, significant improvements in participation rates, comprehension rates and message retention has been achieved, meeting Heathway’s core sponsorship objective of spreading the SunSmart message and promoting SunSmart behaviour. The creation of the SunSmart Junior Club Policy will encourage cricket clubs to adopt a ‘Healthy Club Policy’ and be officially recognized as a ‘SunSmart Club’.The WACA appreciates the support of the Western Australian Government via the Healthway sponsorship programme and this Association is pleased to play its part in delivering and promoting at all times, this important community health message. T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 75 Bronze Partners Ford Motor Company of Australia The Ford Motor Company of Australia were again strongly aligned with the WACA and Australian cricket in 2003-04 via the Dennis Lillee Fast Bowling Academy (Co-Major Sponsor), and as the national vehicle sponsor of Cricket Australia and State Associations. Significant market exposure was enjoyed by Ford at the One Day International match between Australia and India when promoting their new vehicle, the Ford Territory (endorsed by Australian cricketer Matthew Hayden). Ford further leveraged their association with the WACA by hosting players and WACA representatives at the V8 Supercars Series at Barbagello Raceway in June. Retravision Warriors Captain, and Australian Test opening batsman, Justin Langer, was a celebrity passenger in a ‘hot lap’ with Ford Racing driver Steven Johnson (son of Australian Ford motorsport champion, Dick Johnson). Gold Partners Mercury Partners Silver Partners Thank you to all the WACA’s Corporate Partners for their ongoing involvement and support of Western Austalian Cricket. 76 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r WACA District Cricket 2003 - 2004 By David Clear, Manager Competitions & Community Cricket MELVILLE buried their reputation as bridesmaids of the WACA’s first grade competition after holding off a rampaging Bayswater-Morley in a pulsating Vodafone Cup grand-final at the WACA Ground. Needing a win to claim the title, BayswaterMorley batted first and despite making a shaky start, recovered sufficiently to declare late on day one at 7-284. And with Melville seven wickets down at tea on the second day the Bears appeared to have at least one hand on the cup, before Shawn Gillies and Steve Russell wrestled it back with a magnificent unbroken partnership of 101, to draw the match and help seal Melville’s first premiership title since 1979-80. The captivating grand final was the culmination of an exciting finals series, showcased over three weeks at the WACA Ground. WACA Head Curator Richard Winter and his ground staff of Rohan Matthews, Andrew Dalby, Scott Burke and Jack Lewis were congratulated by the clubs for producing tremendous cricket conditions, particularly considering the short time available to prepare the venue after the Fleetwood Mac concert prior to the Elimination Final. The Sunday League Don’t Drink and Drive Shield grand final was also held at the WACA Ground, under lights in February. In an even closer tussle, a youthful Joondalup side made a late rally to defeat short priced favourites Scarborough off the last ball of the match. Chasing Scarborough’s 270, Joondalup’s number-11 batsman Aubrey Steyn clubbed a four to spark wild celebrations amid the Centurions remarkable victory. Another Don’t Drink and Drive Shield match was held under lights at the WACA Ground last season when the Metropolitan XI clashed with MidlandGuildford in the qualifying rounds. The match provided players from the Metropolitan Affiliates and Grade Clubs with a tremendous opportunity to access and play cricket on the WACA Ground. The additional cost of hosting the match under lights was provided through sponsorship generously arranged by Bruce Stark of the Perth Cricket Association, Tom Pivac of Kookaburra Agencies, Rebel Sports headed by Ken Jordan and Professional Cricket Coach Neil Holder. To add to the spectacle,WACA Senior Community Cricket Officer Mark Sanders arranged an on-ground demonstration at the dinner break. Over 100 junior Bayswater-Morley batsman Rhys May strikes a boundary during his crisp innings of 55 but it was not enough to take the Bears to victory over Melville. cricketers played on the ground to cap a wonderful opportunity for the provision of community access to WA’s elite cricket facility. Relative newcomers to the competition Rockingham-Mandurah achieved an important milestone in their brief history when local players Craig Simmons and Aaron Heal made their first-class debuts for Western Australia. Spinner Heal was selected late in the season when regular Beau Casson suffered a broken finger and Heal became a key member of WA’s victorious ING Cup team. Scarborough also enjoyed a stellar season losing just one match to finish as Minor Premiers and claim the Kevin Sullivan Silver Cup in the first grade competition, reaching the Don’t Drink and Drive Shield grand final and winning the prestigious Club Championship award. The provision of suitable quality facilities for Grade Cricket continued its increase as an issue of high priority for WA cricket. Local Government has been a tremendous supporter of cricket over the years, however contemporary business practice has seen Councils review their arrangements for the maintenance of turf wicket facilities. Productive discussions have taken place with the Department of Sport & Recreation regarding the development of a State Facility Plan for cricket, with the intention of involving stakeholders in the consultation process as part of developing the plan. Despite generally good pitch ratings in the competition, the odd match produced low pitch ratings.WACA Curator Richard Winter visited several clubs to provide advice on pitch conditions. Richard has also held discussions with Challenger TAFE to develop a training course for curators in Western Australia. T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 77 On a positive note Gosnells was granted approval for an extension to the existing clubrooms at Sutherlands Park which will see additional change rooms and a viewing area in the clubroom overlooking a paved verandah. Congratulations again go to Perth Cricket Club’s Curator Darren Lyons for winning another Roy Abbott Better-Wicket Award for best pitch in the competition. Vince Clarke, in his first year as Curator at Wanneroo Cricket Club, won the Most-Improved Wicket Award. On-field behaviour was generally good with only 11 players reported in separate incidents, mainly of a dissenting nature. Willetton is also to be congratulated for winning the Lord’s Taverners Spirit of Cricket Award for scoring the most points for upholding the Spirit of Cricket across all four senior grades. Cricket Australia introduced a national award for the Spirit of Cricket for which WA provided six nominations. Promotion of the WACA’s District competition benefited greatly from the valued support of Perth’s media. In particular, the following Media outlets are acknowledged: Colin Minson, Graham Stafford,Colin Bettles, Ian Hale, Chris Leitch, Ken Casellas, Jason D’Tillo Radio Sport 90.5FM Iain Cameron & various reporters Community Newspapers Group Sam Pepe - The Sunday Times John Townsend - The West Australian Tracey Lewis & Matt Somerford Cricket WA Magazine District Cricket’s level of radio coverage, as provided by 90.5 Sport FM reached a new high last season and proved extremely popular.The sport specialist station provided an “around the grounds” service each Saturday and Sunday throughout the season and a “ball-by-ball” description of the Don’t Drink and Drive Final and the three weekends of finals in the Vodafone Cup. Another popular and successful program that commenced this season was the Saturday morning District Cricket Show, hosted by former SubiacoFloreat coach and player Graham Stafford, and former Cricket Week Editor Colin Bettles. Many thanks go to Colin Minson for his leadership in this important area of cricket promotion, and to Ian Hale and Jason D’Tillo for taking calls in the studio each weekend. The Sunday Times continued to provide a score service and editorial coverage each week. This 78 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r continued commitment to the highest quality cricket competition in the State is appreciated by the thousands that read it each week. Thanks go to Sporting Editor Craig Nitschke and reporter Sam Pepe for their support. Cricket WA Magazine was produced for the fifth year by publishers Wright Media with assistance from the WACA.The magazine was delivered free of charge to all senior Cricket Associations in the State including Indoor Cricket Centres. Special thanks again go to Editor Tracey Lewis and writer Matt Somerford for their dedicated contributions. In the sponsorship area, the WACA was delighted to have Carlton & United Breweries (CUB), the Office of Road Safety, Kookaburra and the Sullivan Family as major sponsors of the competition. It was the 31st year of its association with the Sullivan family and its representative Paul Sullivan through the Kevin Sullivan Cup. Prize money for the Minor Premiers was generously increased this season to $3,000 and will continue next season. The Cricket Council warmly thanks Sullivan’s Real Estate for their long-term support. The Vodafone presentation dinner was held at the WACA ground on the 8th of April to commemorate in particular, the feats of the Melville Cricket Club.A most enjoyable evening was had by all and for the first time also included trophy presentations for Women’s cricket. The function was expertly and professionally compéred by Channel Nine personality Dixie Marshall. During the function, a special presentation was made to Fremantle’s Grant Edgar for the Club Administrator of the Year. Grant has served on the Fremantle Committee for many years and he also played his 400th match of grade cricket this season, a rare feat in any level of cricket. A presentation was also made to ClaremontNedland’s Jim Allenby (accepted by Captain Michael Edwards) and Scarborough’s David Bandy, who were jointly adjudged the Champion Club Cricketer of the season. The award is made in conjunction with the Olly Cooley Medal, and is based upon umpire’s votes from each qualifying round match for the fairest and best first-grade cricketer. The Club Cricket Council and its various subcommittees have worked hard again to provide relevant and quality competitions.The contribution of many hours to the operations of the Council by Peter Murphy (Chairman) and John Rogers (Deputy Chairman) is recognised in this Annual Report. Appreciation is also expressed to Terry Prue (Umpires Appointment), John Brown (Junior Cricket Council), Ron Dalton (Junior Cricket Council Deputy Chair), and Tony Claydon (Appeal Board) for Chairing these SubCommittees. Issues requiring ongoing attention include the outcomes of the Club Cricket Summit, the cost of insurance premiums for clubs and the publicising of the completed report,“Safety in Nets” commissioned by the WA Senior Club Cricket Board. Metropolitan Club Cricket Officer Colin Bettles deserves special mention for his efforts for cricket during the season in his job of handling the day-to-day administrative tasks of the competition.Troy Starcevich and Ruth Prenter’s efforts are also appreciated. Finally, appreciation goes out to all the volunteers associated with the WACA District competition. Club administrators and those serving on WACA committees who are all to be congratulated on their untiring work to further the health of Western Australian cricket. 2003-04 Vodafone Cup Final WACA Ground, 27-28 March 2004 Match Drawn.

Captain Adam Voges (863 runs at 66.38) and Ben Lillis (850 runs at 55.00) took the Vodafone Cup by storm, with the pair finishing first and second in the league batting aggregates. Lillis also came fourth in the batting averages. Dimitri Mascarenhas (688 runs at 38.22 and 22 wickets) was unable to repeat his 51-wicket effort from last season, but made five half-centuries during the season and saw Melville into the Vodafone Cup final with a blazing 160 against South Perth. All-rounder Steve Russell didn’t experience much joy with the bat, but took 25 wickets at 16.88 to take Melville’s bowling award. A testament to the old axiom that a champion team will always beat a team of champions, Bayswater-Morley almost pulled off a fairytale finale to the season before forcing a brave draw to lose the Vodafone Cup to Melville. Claims that the departure of 2002-03 Olly Cooley medalist Chris Mason and the retirement of Peter Rogers would result in a difficult year for the Bears were put to rest early, with Michael Thistle claiming 5-19 to headline a 50-run victory over Scarborough in round two. Baywater-Morley’s team mentality was most notably highlighted in the finals with excellent team wins over top-sides Scarborough and Subiaco-Floreat. The Bears will need improved potency from its batsmen if it is to take the next step in 2004-05. No batsmen could average above thirty and addressing batting consistency will be Bayswater-Morley’s focus in the off-season. Scarborough South Perth 2002-03: Fifth 2003-04: Third Leading run getter: David Bandy – 652 runs at 32.60 Leading wicket taker: David Bandy – 41 wickets at 11.02 2002-03: Tenth 2003-04: Fourth Leading run getter: Gavin Wates – 618 runs at 51.50 Leading wicket taker: Gavin Wates – 34 wickets at 25.12 As was the case last season, Scarborough produced a star of the future in the form of David Bandy. Bandy was the joint winner of the Olly Cooley Medal along with James Allenby from Claremont-Nedlands. In addition Bandy won Scarborough’s batting and bowling awards. He was also selected for one WA Second XI game in which he took 3/38 from 14 overs. Scarborough quick Justin Coetzee stood up to pre-season expectations, the left-armer claimed 36 wickets at 17.40 – almost double his tally from last season. Youngster Liam Davis (614 runs at 32.32) and Clint Heron (542 runs at 28.53) formed a rock-solid opening lineup, with four centuries and five half-centuries between them. With plenty of emerging talent still to harnessed, Scarborough will remain a force on the Vodafone Cup for many years to come. South Perth came full circle this season following last years fall from grace. Their season started by recording a memorable victory over Joondalup in round one and went undefeated for the first half of the season, before coming unstuck against a rampant Scarborough in round eight. Gavin Wates dominated the batting and bowling departments for the second year in a row, with 34 wickets at 25.12 and 618 runs at 51.50. Hugh Brown (731 runs at 48.73) scored his second firstgrade century and almost made another, falling one run short in round two against University. Justin Meuleman was the other South Perth batsman to pass 500 runs for the season (539 runs at 35.93). With the retirement of Jo Angel and Paul Wilson from the Warriors ranks, South Perth’s bowling may struggle next season if Darren Wates and Ben Edmondson are increasingly absent with Warrior duties. T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 83 Subiaco-Floreat 2002-03: Premiers 2003-04: Fifth Leading run getter: Steven Glew – 678 runs at 39.88 Leading wicket taker: Sam Howman – 56 wickets at 18.20 The ‘Lions’ fought back well in the second half of the season. Their situation looked precarious after seven rounds when they were out of the top six. Although Steven Glew didn’t quite reach the heights of last season, the Lions captain produced another outstanding year to finish with 678 runs at just over 39.88. Sadly, the talented right-hand batsman was left without support by his batting brethren, with Glew being the only player to average above 30. Swing bowler Sam Howman was the Vodafone Cup’s most destructive bowler, with the speedster’s 56 wickets at an average of 18.20 earning him a WA Second XI birth. Fremantle 2002-03: Seventh 2003-04: Seventh Leading run getter: Michael Brown – 744 runs at 37.20 Leading wicket taker: Brett Dorey – 48 wickets at 11.46 The ‘Portsiders’ just missed out on a Vodafone Cup finals berth after Bayswater-Morley upset Scarborough in Round 13 to pinch the final place. Fremantle are banging on the finals door, but still lacked consistency in another roller-coaster season. Michael Brown’s 190 not out against Joondalup in round seven and giant paceman Brett Dorey’s demolition of Perth in round 12 – where he claimed 7/22 to help dismiss Perth for a paltry 67 – were the season highlights for Fremantle. Dorey and Mark Woodhead formed the league’s most destructive opening pair, taking 89 wickets between them to finish second and fourth in the league respectively for wickets taken. 84 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r University 2002-03: Fourteenth 2003-04: Sixth Leading run getter: Geoff Cullen – 629 runs at 52.42 Leading wicket taker: Mathew Healy – 34 wickets at 19.76 A new Coach, a new Captain and a new team ethos contributed to produce the Vodafone Cup’s biggest improver. After leading the Vodafone Cup race early in the season, the Academics went through a mid-season form slump, before winning three of its last four games. University’s greatest asset was its batting, with the addition of Geoff Cullen and Ian Bell (337 runs at 42.13) giving University added depth. Andrew Nicholls (603 runs at 40.20) and Nathan Blight (598 runs at 42.71) also enjoyed outstanding seasons. Fledging pace pair Mathew Healy and Andrew James (32 wickets at 24.97) were the bane of many opposition sides. Midland-Guildford 2002-03: Ninth 2003-04: Eight Leading run getter: Chris Pivac – 693 runs at 46.20 Leading wicket taker: Nick De Grys – 42 wickets at 20.10 Former Kent Street all-rounder Nick De Grys and Captain Chris Pivac performed heroically for Midland-Guildford, however the team stumbled in the last five rounds to finish just out of finals contention. De Grys, who took five wickets in an innings on three occasions, finished 2nd in the league for wickets taken and was given apt support from Justin Perks (34 wickets at 19.79) and Daniel Turkich (24 wickets at 27.04). Pivac, along with Warrior Peter Worthington (530 runs at 48.18), were the mainstays of the batting. All the pieces are in place for next season and injuries notwithstanding, Midland-Guildford can look forward to a more successful era. Perth 2002-03: Sixteenth 2003-04: Ninth Leading run getter: Luke Ronchi – 659 runs at 43.93 Leading wicket taker: Paul Keenan – 40 wickets at 23.20 With limited opportunities to turn out in Warriors colours this season, Luke Ronchi made the most of his time in first-grade with two centuries and four half-centuries in an outstanding year. Garth Nottle (645 runs at 43.00) enjoyed an extremely consistent season, scoring six half-centuries in 17 innings. However like so many clubs languishing in the bottom half of the Vodafone Cup, Perth didn’t have enough batsmen who stepped up at crucial times. A round 10 victory over Midland-Guildford highlighted Perth’s potential. But Perth’s pace men will need to offer Paul Keenan greater support next season. The performances of Stuart Walters (372 runs at 31), Francois Grobler (370 runs at 26.43) and Simon Allison (315 runs at 28.64) give Perth plenty of reason for optimism next season. Claremont-Nedlands 2002-03: Sixth 2003-04: Eleventh Leading run getter: Jim Allenby – 805 runs at 50.31 Leading wicket taker: Tim McDonald – 41 wickets at 18.07 After being last year’s big improvers, ClaremontNedlands showed signs of further progress this season by winning its first three games in style, before losing the next eight on the trot. Joint Olly Cooley Medal winner Jim Allenby (805 runs at 50.31) became the first player in WACA history to take 40 wickets and score more than 800 runs in a season. Campbell Robertson (590 runs at 39.33) backed up his last impressive season with another steady year. However the two cut a solitary figure at the top of the Tigers batting tree. Claremont-Nedlands new-ball combination was the second deadliest in the league, with Allenby and Tim McDonald taking more than 80 wickets between them. Claremont-Nedlands can focus on a solid pre-season and the Tigers roar may yet roar again in 2004-05. Willetton 2002-03: Eighth 2003-04: Tenth Leading run getter: Daniel Waters – 363 runs at 27.92 Leading wicket taker: Chas Keogh – 33 wickets at 26.55 After missing the finals last year,Willetton slid further in 2003-04 in another rebuilding year. Although the ‘Dragons’ missed retired seamer Sean Cary, the addition of Chas Keogh brought welcome relief, with the former Melville bowler relishing his increased new-ball opportunities to take Willetton’s bowling award. After taking 12 wickets in the first two games, exVictorian firebrand John Taylor would take only six more, with Warriors commitment taking Taylor away for much of the season. A haul of 7-42 and 52 for Taylor against Wanneroo in round one would remain one of the Vodafone Cup’s most brilliant all-round performances in 2003-04. As was the case last year, the ‘Dragons’ lacked a potent batting weapon, with Daniel Waters the only batsman to score more than 300 runs, while youngster Shane Lavender scored his maiden century. Rockingham-Mandurah 2002-03: Thirteenth 2003-04: Twelfth Leading run getter: Craig Simmons – 679 runs at 45.27 Leading wicket taker: Joe Sarsero – 37 wickets at 20.54 After winning two of its first three games, Rockingham-Mandurah fortunes faltered as the season progressed but still showed signs of genuine improvement. The ‘Mariners’ youthful side continued its development with Craig Simmons sustained success paying off this season with his first-class debut for the Retravision Warriors. Youngsters Daniel Whiting (293 runs at 41.86) and Ben Wright (265 runs at 37.86) also showed plenty of potential. Joe Sarsero enjoyed a fine season, however he was required to carry more than the lion’s share of the bowling workload with Warrior Aaron Heal the only other bowler to take 20 wickets. While Rockingham-Mandurah showed its can mix it with the best, it will need greater consistency against the power-house clubs next year. T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 85 Mount Lawley 2002-03: Twelfth 2003-04: Thirteenth Leading run getter: Robert White – 496 runs at 33.07 Leading wicket taker: Garrick Yandle – 34 wickets at 16.97 Wins over the powerful Bayswater-Morley and University clubs gave the Mt Lawley faithful reason for optimism. However their season was beset by a lack of reliability. Garrick Yandle finished the season as the most successful bowler and also proved to be an able batsman, scoring a century against Bayswater-Morley in round seven. Opening batsman Robert White (496 runs at 33.07) and David Lindsay (458 runs at 41.64) batted with aplomb, but the rest of Mt Lawley’s top order often failing to perform when the pressure was on. A disappointing year for Mt Lawley.While not lacking ability, have a long way to go to return to the glory of past eras. Joondalup 2002-03: Eleventh 2003-04: Fifteenth Leading run getter: Julian Russell – 571 runs at 35.69 Leading wicket taker: James Boyland – 25 wickets at 31.00 Despite its first limited overs Shield for 22 years, when winning its first Drink and Drive Shield, Joondalup was unable to translate that form into the Vodafone Cup. Some positive signs came in round five and six with sound victories over Wanneroo and Willetton, however the Centurions would win just one more fixture – a round 10 mauling of Gosnells. With strike bowler Steven Jacques nursing shin soreness all season and bowling partner James Boyland not reaching his peak, the Centurions struggled to bowl sides out consistently, Travis Crook (24 wickets) was the only other bowler apart from Boyland to take more than 20 wickets. Opening batsmen Julian Russell received good support from Mat Schenke (343 runs at 31.18) and Paul Swart (457 runs at 30.46) and with greater experience, Joondalup can look forward to a more productive batting department next season. 86 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r Wanneroo 2002-03: Fourth 2003-04: Fourteenth Leading run getter: Mike Hussey – 360 runs at 90.00 Leading wicket taker: Callum Thorp – 30 wickets at 14.40 Mike Hussey, despite only having played seven games, led Wanneroo’s batting again this season with 360 runs at a remarkable 90.00.A blistering 182 from Hussey in the Roo’s victory over Mt Lawley in round nine was a season’s highlight. However the Warriors Vice-captain struck a lonely figure at the top, with no other batsmen to average more than 30. Callum Thorp was once again at his run-restricting wicket-taking best,with 30 wickets at an average of 14.4. While the performances of Vince Clark (26 wickets at 27.88), Gary Atkinson (25 wickets at 27.12) and Brett Mathers (24 wickets at 22.13) were commendable, they will need to offer Thorp greater support next season for Wanneroo to get back into the top six. Gosnells 2002-03: Fifteenth 2003-04: Sixteenth Leading run getter: Luke Pomersbach – 582 runs at 30.63 Leading wicket taker: Guy Hoskin – 38 wickets at 22.05 New coach Peter Rogers set things in motion at Sutherlands Park. However a first innings victory over Bayswater-Morley in round three was the sole highlight for the ‘Hawks’ in an otherwise difficult season. WA Under-19’s representative Luke Pomersbach once again impressed with a century and three half centuries while Daniel Bennett was the only other batsman to score a century. Guy Hoskin finished 9th in the league for wickets taken, with Rick Vredenbregt and Shane Beaumont chipping in with 29 wickets apiece. While not lacking potential, Gosnells will need to enlist a high quality batsman in the off-season if it is to climb out of the doldrums in 2004-05. Allenby and Bandy Share Olly Cooley Medal By Ben Oliver EXCEPTIONAL seasons from young guns Jim Allenby and David Bandy were rewarded when the pair were proclaimed joint winners of the Olly Cooley Medal at the WACA Ground in March. Allenby is the first Claremont-Nedlands player to win the medal since the Olly Cooley Medal’s inauguration, while Bandy in now in the elite company of two-times medal winner and Scarborough captain Kade Harvey, who last won the medal four years ago. In only the third time the award has been shared, Allenby and Bandy tied on 15 votes apiece. They were two votes clear of a four-way tie for second between Brett Dory (Fremantle), Adam Voges (Meville), Nick de Grys (Midland-Guildford) and Garrick Yandle (Mount Lawley). Past winner Peter Worthington (Midland-Guildford) and Nathan Blight (University) completed a crowded leader board with 12 votes each to finish equal third. In one of the closest Medal counts in years, Gosnells youngster Luke Pommersbach and RockinghamMandurah batsman Craig Simmons led the voting early, before University’s Andrew James and Melville’s Adam Voges shared joint leadership at the half-way mark. After the votes for round 10 had been counted, five players were tied at ten votes apiece, before Bandy and Allenby rocketed home in the later games to jointly claim the coveted award. It was a breakthrough year for the 21-year old Allenby.The former WA Under-19’s player finished the Vodafone Cup season first for batting aggregates (805 runs) and fifth for averages (50.31). The medium-fast bowler was sixth in the bowling aggregates with 40 wickets at 17.70 apiece. The exciting all-rounder is also the first player in WACA Pennant history to pass 800 runs and take 40 wickets in a season. Meanwhile Bandy was the accurate assassin of the Vodafone Cup. His controlled swing bowling netted him 40 wickets at an average of 10.42 and he scored 626 runs at an average of 34.78. In Second Grade, dual honour’s were shared by Joel Charles (Wanneroo) and Brett Hugo (Scarborough) for the J.P. Robbins Medal, with both players polling 11 votes each. Gosnell’s Martin Sharp won the Albert Richings Medal for best player in Third grade with 17 votes. Julian Murphy from Melville was victorious in 4th grade, claiming 15 votes to win the Allan Mackley medal. In the inaugural year of the award, Mick Martell won the Best first year umpire.

Joondalup Win Don’t Drink and Drive Shield By Ben Oliver A GRITTY half-century from Joondalup batsman Mick Swart was enough to deliver an unexpected victory to the Centurion’s in a pulsating Don’t Drink and Drive Shield Final. The Don’t Drink and Drive Shield is the premier limited-overs cricket competition in WA. Chasing Scarborough’s imposing total of 270 under lights at the WACA Ground, Joondalup looked done at 8-194, with Retravision Warrior Ryan Campbell (26), Julian Russell (24) and Matt Schenke (55) all spectators as the circling Gulls looked set to clinch back-to-back titles. Travis Crook’s ill-timed run-out – a hesitant push and equally uncertain trundle down the pitch that saw the young fast bowler caught short of his ground by Scarborough captain Kade Harvey – seemingly sealed the match at 9-236. However if news had spread of Scarborough’s imminent victory, no one bothered to tell Mick Swart. The young right-hander spilt the webbing in his hand during Scarborough’s innings, an injury that required six stitches Swart then played with vast maturity to compile 63 not out and together with number 11 batsman Aubrey Steyn brought the equation down to a simple sum – eight runs required from the last over. While Swart was undoubtedly Joondalup’s saviour, it was Steyn who sealed victory.The right-hander smashed David Bandy’s final delivery on the last ball for four to get the two runs required and Joondalup’s first one-day crown in 22 years. Earlier, Scarborough’s second tier stars led the charge, as Man-of-the-Match Liam Davis and Clint Heron got Scarborough’s title defence off to a barnstorming start with a magnificent century opening partnership. Davis, who prior to the final had scored 197 runs in the entire Don’t Drink and Drive Shield competition, made a sparkling 126 not out and was the centrepiece of the Seagulls total, with Heron chipping in with a near run-a-ball 77. Bowler Sam Hogg’s reputation for lower-order striking was done no harm with a quick-fire 22 off 18 balls. Warriors Captain Justin Langer failed to score and first-grade marauder Kade Harvey compiled a modest 18. Campbell’s wily part-time off-spinners snagged three wickets, while veteran spinner Roshan Jurangpathy was the best of the bowlers, taking 3-54 including Langer’s vital scalp. In an interesting footnote Campbell kept for the first five overs of Scarborough’s innings with no wicket-keeping pads.They were still at the airport as he had only returned to Perth an hour before the match started. Campbell along with Harvey and Langer had competed in an ING Cup match against Victoria at the MCG the previous day. Ryan Campbell (front row, 4th from left) led Joondalup to a nail biting victory and surprisingly was more effective with his part-time off-spin than his dynamic batting.

A new Orientation Course has been developed which provides an introduction to coaching and is ideal for the first time coach. This course is a lead into the Level 1 Course (Development Coach), which is now a combination of on-line and practical modules.The WACA are the first state to trial this new system, with results to date being very successful. The WACA conducted several Orientation Coaching courses during 2003-04. Courses were delivered in both metropolitan and regional areas of WA, with a total of 90 participants being certified. (L-R) Fast bowling legend Dennis Lillee with Doug Harris and Damien Fleming at the WACA Ground during a Pace Australia Coaching Clinic. Level 1 (Development Coach) courses were conducted by Zone Coaching Officers within the four metropolitan zones and 76 candidates completed the new course. Coaching & Game Development In 2003, a review of the WACA Cricket Operations concluded that more resources needed to be made available for the development of our young talented cricketers. After consultation and research, Cricket Operations at the WACA underwent a restructure to ensure the identification and development of youth cricketers was improved. The key changes were as follows: • The appointment of four Coaching Officers to work with WACA district clubs in the areas of coaching and identification of players. Secondly, to expand the WACA development programs for talented youth to ensure the WACA is at the forefront in developing youth cricketers. • A clear and concise pathway which all players T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 93 have access to. This pathway caters for entry level or participation focused players, through to representative level programs. • To increase development opportunities for youth players (12-19 yrs). Cricket Operations now has two distinct areas, both vital to the future of WA cricket. GAME DEVELOPMENT Four Community Cricket Officers have the role of ensuring participation at the grassroots level grows, including girls cricket.They work specifically with community clubs and schools. COACHING Four Coaching Officers have the role of enhancing the development of players through the education of coaches, and the identification and development of talent.They work predominantly with the district clubs. Regional Cricket Officers Six Regional Cricket Officers, based in Bunbury, Northam, Kalgoorlie, Albany, Narrogin and Geraldton work six months of the year in cricket. Their role is to ensure both the development and coaching areas of their regions thrive.The north-west of the state (Pilbara/Kimberley) is serviced frequently by WACA Coaching and Community Cricket Officers.This has taken place since the late 1980’s. District Clubs With the introduction of the four Zone Coaching Officers, the WACA district clubs were delivered a level of service and assistance never received before. This included a Talent Development Program, aimed at the most talented players from U-13 to U-17 level in each zone.The U-14, U-15 and U-16 Zone Carnivals were held at Midland, Joondalup and Christchurch Grammar respectively and all were very successful and highlighted the talent that is playing at district club junior level. Further to this, the Coaching Officers made regular visits to their zone clubs to provide coaching assistance to players (both junior and senior) as well as working with the coaches to ensure talented players have the best opportunity to progress their cricket. A number of Advanced Coaching Workshops were held at the WACA for district coaches. These included workshops delivered by State Coach Wayne Clark, former AFL Coach Ken Judge and Cricket Australia fielding consultant Mike Young. Through the National Pace Bowling Program, the WACA conducted clinics with specialist coaches Dennis Lillee and Damien Fleming. A spin clinic was delivered by Bob Paulsen and Peter Philpott for the young talented spin bowlers from district clubs. 94 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r SunSmart State 16s Carnival 2004 The SunSmart State U-16 Cricket Carnival was held at the picturesque Christ Church Grammar playing fields, the four day carnival was played among the four Metro zones and two teams representing Country WA. The NW Metro Zone (Players from Scarborough, Wanneroo, Joondalup and Subiaco-Floreat District Cricket Clubs) won three games. Country Black won three games also. NE and SE Metro won two games each, while SW Metro won one game. The Carnival allows players to play at the highest possible level for their age. At the end of the 2004 season, a preliminary U-17 State squad will be selected. Player's performances for their respective clubs and carnival performances will be taken into account.

Umpiring Development By Ric Evans, WACA Umpiring Manager National Umpiring Accreditation Scheme In the winter of 2003 Cricket Australia launched Level 2 of its new National Umpiring Accreditation Scheme. Level 2 is designed for umpires officiating in senior club cricket competitions. Other levels including 1 – aimed at junior competition umpires and 3 and 4 – for First Class and international competitions, are still to be published. Interest in the new scheme was high and 125 people (47 were new to umpiring) registered for the Level 2 course. Peter Hanlon, Cricket Australia’s Education and Training Manager, introduced the course to all participants on 25th June 2003. It provided a much broader and more detailed curriculum in umpire training. Such matters covered included the role of the umpire, coping with the umpiring environment, people management, sledging and intimidation, performance enhancement, legal responsibilities, risk management, health and safety principles, as well as an intensive study of the laws of cricket this insured participants received a comprehensive education. Inherent in the course is the requirement for on-field competency to be demonstrated. The Umpires Appointment Board (UAB) set as policy that all umpires registered with the WACA for the senior district cricket competition must participate in the course for Level 2 Accreditation. UAB members for season 2003-2004 were Terry Prue (Chairman), Ric Evans (Umpiring Manager), Graeme Bibby, Barry Rennie and Keith Rinaldi. All members have First Class umpiring experience. District Cricket 91 umpires officiated in the WACA District Competitions in season 2003-2004 - 78 in the seniors and 13 in the juniors. Milestones reached: • 400 WACA matches Doug Frame • 150 WACA matches John Kavanagh,Todd Rann • 100 WACA matches Graham Capper, Michael Edmonds Mick Martell, a former first grade player with Bayswater-Morley and Wanneroo, was the recipient of the WACUA’s Peter McConnell Medal as the best first-year umpire. Mick commenced the season umpiring in third grade, progressed to second grade after two rounds and made his first grade debut in the last qualifying round match. Representative Matches Western Australia retained its four umpires contracted by Cricket Australia; Ian Lock, (promoted to the National Panel), Andrew Craig, (Supplementary Panel) and Bruce Bennett and Jeff Brookes, (Development/State Panel). Richard Pease and Peter Fogarty were named as “standby” umpires. Ian Lock enjoyed an outstanding season, umpiring matches involving Zimbabwe, Australia A, Retravision Warriors and the CA Chairman’s XI, eight Pura Cup and two ING Cup matches and was emergency umpire for the Test Match and two One Day Internationals held in Perth.Andrew Craig (four Pura Cup and two ING Cup), Bruce Bennett (RE/MAX Cup, three ING Cup and two CA Cup), Jeff Brookes (RE/MAX Cup and CA Chairman’s XI, three ING Cup and one CA Cup), Richard Pease (National U/19 Youth Championship and three CA Cup) and Peter Fogarty (National U/17 Championship) all performed with distinction. In the Women’s National League all of the abovementioned together with Craig Allen, Fred Davis and Todd Rann umpired matches played by the Western Fury against New South Wales and South Australia. Regional Cricket In a challenging initiative, the Carnarvon Cricket Association decided to form a panel of umpires to be paid by the Association to umpire all of its matches in season 2003-2004, thus doing away with players having to umpire their own games. The Association advertised locally for interested people and WACA Umpiring Manager, Ric Evans, was invited to Carnarvon. Ric conducted a weekend seminar and introduced the National Umpiring Accreditation Scheme Level 2 to those who had responded to the advertisement. This seminar proved to be a highly successful pilot project and is available to all country Associations seeking accreditation for umpires. The appointment of independent umpires was well received by all teams in the Carnarvon Association and will be continued in future seasons.

By Harry Sorrenson AO. MBE. OFFICE BEARERS 2003-2004 President: John Moody AM Chairman: Leo Crohan Secretary: Mike Snell Committee : Peter Davies, Mal Gammon, Lou Giglia, Peter Howard, Barrie Hudson, Arthur Lodge, Mandy Loton, Greg Oldfield, Darryl Smalley, Harry Sorensen, Peter Wann and Kevin Watson. Objectives The basic objective of Lord’s Taverners is to encourage and promote the playing and enjoyment of cricket by young people but in particular those disadvantaged physically or mentally, socially, financially or by distance or other circumstances. Lord’s Taverners continues its close association with the WACA, particularly in the development of junior cricket in this State, and especially with youngsters in the remote regions. Project Funding Now Exceeds Half Million Over $500,000 has now been funded by Lord’s Taverners in WA on a wide range of programs since a Branch was established in February 1983. Programs have included West Kimberley Development Program, AUSRAPID National Indoor Cricket Championships for players with an intellectual disability, Kent and John Forrest Senior High Schools’ Cricket Courses, Winter Coaching Program in Regional WA, Girls Cricket Talent Development and specially designed programs for Aboriginal youngsters in regions centred on Broome and Bunbury. Lord’s Taverners WA has a strong commitment to give the young, particularly the disadvantaged, a sporting chance. Leo Crohan New WA Chairman Western Australia’s recently appointed Chairman of Lord’s Taverners, Leo Crohan, says he is theoretically a hard hitting left-hand bat who bowls the occasional gentle RH off-cutter, has never troubled National, State or even first-grade selectors, but has enjoyed a great deal of pleasure from his years of cricket. Forty-three year old Leo Crohan was born and raised in Melbourne. At age 27 his employment took him to Singapore and he, with his trusty cricket bat, subsequently spent thirteen years in Asia and the Middle-East. Wherever he worked he would always look for a game of cricket. In Jakarta, he and fellow WA Taverner, Mike Snell, were team-mates who enjoyed premiership success in a local cricket competition. That was only one of seven premiership teams, involving Leo, that have provided him with lots of happy memories. With only an occasional game these days Leo is finding the time to put his energies into building on the strong base and reputation Lord’s Taverners enjoys in WA, thanks to the fine work of his predecessors, Peter Firkins, Peter Dunn and, for the past eight years, that affable Yorkshireman, Barrie Hudson. Leo Crohan is a Company Director and part owner of the Perth based engineering firm, The Binder Group, a company which is the Asia Pacific region’s largest manufacturer of propriety and custom built pipe suspension solutions. Junior Taverner Awards Western Australia’s Junior Taverner Awards for 2004 went to Holly Hyder and Greg Beresi.These Awards are now recognised among the most prestigious in Western Australian cricket. Quite a number of past awardees have gone on to represent their State in both forms of cricket – and 1989 Awardee Damien Martyn has distinguished himself at an International level. Great hopes are held for these latest Awardees as they join this exclusive band of high achievers. Holly Hyder, the 2004 Junior Taverner, is a 16 year old from the country town of Bunbury and has had an outstanding 2003-04 season having represented WA in both U-17 and U-19 State teams. Holly was WA’s best bowler in both the U-17 and U-19 National Championships and won selection in the U-17 Honour Team and the 2004 Australian U-17 Development Squad. Given that Holly is not metropolitan based her determination to play at the highest level has only been possible because of great sacrifices on her part and from the Hyder family. Greg Beresi (16), the other 2004 Awardee, is described as a gritty RH top order bat with the ability to score runs and adapt his game to the situation. He represented WA in the 2004 U-17 Championships in Adelaide and was his State’s T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 99 leading run scorer – 209 runs at 41.8. During the 2003-04 season Greg, in all games, in many different grades, had a run aggregate of 936 runs at 40.7. The highlight of his season, undoubtedly, was his selection as a WA representative for the Imparja Cup held in Alice Springs. In this competition he averaged 31.00 and was honoured with selection in the National ATSIC XI. WA Members’ Functions Attract Top Speakers An attractive program of Members’functions,featuring interesting speakers, is a sure formula for keeping membership interested and supportive and is an excellent vehicle for attracting new members. During the past twelve months Lord’s Taverners WA has held three Members’ functions featuring ABC’s top cricket broadcaster, Jim Maxwell, the ‘West Australian’ specialist cricket writer John Townsend and former WA and Australian cricketer, now TV presenter, Brendon Julian. ‘Spirit of Cricket’ Award Extended to Country Week Competition WA Country Cricket Board decided that this year it would introduce a ‘Spirit of Cricket’ award as part of Landmark Senior Country Week 2004. This decision was made in keeping with recent trends in Australian Cricket and following the example set by the WACA through their introduction of the Lord’s Taverners Spirit of Cricket Award in the metropolitan based Vodafone Cup District Pennant Cricket competition. Lord’s Taverners WA was delighted to extend its involvement with this program to include Country Week Cricket. At the conclusion of the Country Week Competition Lord’s Taverners Spirit of Cricket Awards were presenterd to those adjudged best performers in each of the competition’s five separate sections. The Award recipients for 2004 were teams representing North Midlands (A), Williams (B), Bunbury (C), East Kimberley (D) and Nor-West and Murchison (E). Australian Team Selection Honours Lord’s Taverners WA has provided sponsorship support during the past year in a number of areas. Sponsorship support for Ausrapid, the Imparja Cup and the Deaf Cricket Ashes series,has enabled a number of Western Australians to attain National honours: Ausrapid, through the Australian Indoor Cricket Federation, conducts a national event for indoor cricketers with an intellectual disability. Although semi-final losers in the 2003 Championships the WA team provided the ‘Player of the Series’, Greg Leahy, and two representatives in the 2003 Lord’s Taverners All Star Team – Greg Leahy and Travis 100 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r Southerland. The achievements of Greg and Travis were acknowledged by Lord’s Taverners in having the two young men as VIP guests at its Test Match Breakfast in October last. The Imparja Cup has become a highly successful annual event providing opportunity for indigenous cricketers to display their range of skills. Two Western Australians who impressed the National Selectors were Clinton Dann and Greg Beresi. Clinton and Greg were named in the ATSIC XI. Sixteen year-old Greg Beresi’s 2004 achievements have been further recognized in that he is also Lord’s Taverners Junior Cricketer for 2004. The Deaf Cricket Ashes Series, Australia v England, was played out between 26 January and 15 February 2004. Australia won all three Test Matches but lost the One Day Internationals 1:4. Western Australia’s sole representative was profoundly deaf Tim Regan and both WACA and Lord’s Taverners provided financial assistance to enable him to participate in this series. Tim had an outstanding series that won him a number of accolades – best bowling average in Test Matches; equal third for most number of wickets; and, in ODI’s the equal top wicket taker. Obituary Peter Dunn (1921-2004) Peter Dunn, the Chairman of WA Branch of Lord’s Taverners from 1987 to 1996, died in Perth on 6 February this year after a long illness. Peter presided over an important stage in the development of Lord’s Taverners in WA and was committed to ensuring that sponsorship funding was directed to the most deserving programs, particularly in regional Western Australia. He enjoyed much personal success, both in business and on the playing fields.At the time of his retirement from business in 1982 he was deputy State Manager of the Reserve Bank. His sporting endeavours extended well beyond cricket to include hockey (State representative), golf, tennis and table tennis. As a cricketer Peter was a left-arm bowler with a classical action. He played in 15 Sheffield Shield matches with a best return of 6-26 against South Australia. From his second ball in first-class cricket he had NSW and Australian opener Arthur Morris dropped at second slip. Morris went on to score a match-winning 160. Peter was a prolific club wicket taker for Claremont Cottesloe. His club record of 558 wickets ranks him among the WACA’s highest. Peter Dunn was appointed by the Australian Cricket Board as WA’s first Commissioner for the players’ code of behaviour.

Museum and Memorabilia Sub-Committee By Brian Brosnan, WACA Museum Co-ordinator The infamous ‘Under-Arm Ball’ that Trevor Chappell delivered to New Zealand is housed in the WACA Ground Museum. 2003-04 will be remembered as a progressive and historic period for the Museum. The Museum underwent a business rationalisation with the introduction of new strategies to maximise income and attract greater patronage.An agreement was signed with the Western Australian Tourism Commission to promote museum and ground tours to the numerous tourists that visit their premises and website. The WACA Museum was a supporter of the Perth Hoteliers concierge association awards, “Les Clef Door”. The Museum seeks to work closely with leading hotels informing them of the services we offer so they can confidently recommend us to their patrons. The pursuit of media coverage resulted in newspaper, radio and national television coverage of the Museum collection and tours.The highlight of this promotional campaign was the WACA Museum being featured by Ernie Dingo in a story on “The Great Outdoors” With the support of the Museum Volunteers the number of ground tours was doubled. These steps all contributed to a jump in museum attendance to 7000. After a comprehensive survey of other Australian Test cricket venues entry fees were adjusted. On the field the WACA Ground was the venue for several high profile and historic matches. Mathew Hayden set a world record individual Test score in the October Test Match against Zimbabwe. In co-operation with the WACA Curator Richard Winter the Museum created the “WACA Rare Earth” memorabilia piece featuring a soil sample from the pitch used for the Australia v Zimbabwe Test Match.These were highly sought after. In January the WACA Museum celebrated the final appearance of the Waugh brothers with the “Waugh at the WACA” commemorative tee shirts. These proved very popular. Congratulations are offered to our Retravision Warriors current ING one day Champions, following their victory at the GABBA on 29 February 2004.The Waterford Crystal trophy worth an estimated $100,000 will be on display in the WACA Museum until the next ING Cup Final. The Museum held its inaugural Christmas Family Day on 12 December 2003. The entry fee went to Charity Link. With the support of sponsors Coca Cola and Four and Twenty we were able to offer free drinks and pies to patrons on the day. The event was supported by 11 Museum Volunteers and the Community Cricket Officers and Membership Department. On behalf of the Museum and “Charity Link” thanks are extended to all. Dennis Lillee continued his generous support as the Museum’s Honorary Patron. Dennis attended a morning tea organised to introduce the volunteers to new WACA CEO Tony Dodemaide. Tony and Dennis addressed the group and reinforced their strong backing and belief in the importance of the Museum.The Museum is grateful for their support. Memorabilia Sub-Committee Under the Chairmanship of Frank O’Driscoll, with the support of his deputy Rob O’Connor QC, the Committee continues to address the many issues of commemorating the WACA’s pre-eminent position in Western Australian sport. Other Members of the Sub Committee were Gary Thomas, Justin Shepherd, Allen Nicholls, Allan Edwards and Norm Smith Items reviewed this year include: appropriate naming of the rooms in the new Players Pavilion,development of appropriate memorabilia displays, relocation of memorabilia to the Southern Side, upgrading of Honour Boards, the considerations for a “Concourse of Champions” concept,‘period’ décor and photos included in a redecorated WACA President’s Room. T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 101 Western Australian Women’s Cricket Association 2003-2004 Season Review By Angele Gray, Women’s Cricket Administration Co-ordinator Left-arm orthodox spinner Dawn Holden was a key member of the Western Fury attack in 2003-04. Integration into WACA Structure Cricket for women and girls in Western Australia has entered new and exciting times. On 1st December 2003, Women’s Cricket was integrated into the WACA structure. The WACA will provide an operational platform through which the game for girls and women can realise its true potential. With the integration, the position of Administrative Co-ordinator – Women’s Cricket was established. Western Fury player Angele Gray was appointed to the position, responsible for overseeing the development of all levels of the game for women and girls in WA. 102 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r To ensure the women’s fraternity continues to have input into the future development of the game and programs for women and girls, two new committees have been established. The Women’s Cricket Advisory Committee will provide strategic support and guidance to the operations, while the Women’s Cricket Council will be responsible for overseeing the senior women’s competition. Established in 1930, the Women’s Cricket Association has had a long and successful history. Since the first Australian Team tour in 1934-35, WA has produced 28 players that have represented Australia and has produced a number of fine State senior representatives. It is anticipated that the integration will further the opportunity for women and girls to enjoy the great game of cricket in WA.

Coralie started her cricket career in the 1952-53 season for the Subiaco Women’s Cricket Club. She later became one of the founding members of the South Perth Women’s Cricket Club. An outstanding medium pace bowler, Coralie represented Western Australia in just her first season of cricket.

She was also President of the WA Women’s Cricket Association from 1990-1993. Representative Cricket Western Fury 2003-04 Season 2003-04 was a season of improvement and optimism as the Western Fury got back on the winners board and blooded some young talent. In the first game of the season WA went down to NSW at the WACA Ground by 82 runs. In match two the result was no different with NSW easily taking the points. Travelling to Princess Park in Victoria resulted in another loss as WA could only manage 193 in reply to Victoria’s 265. Match two was a day of high emotion for the Fury with former Australian off-spinner Avril Fahey rushed to hospital, later diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes.Victoria could only manage 142 in their innings and thanks to Lauren Stammers (39) the Fury passed the Victorians score in the final over of the match. Confidence high, the Fury travelled to Queensland to play the winless Fire. Julia Price (54), Melissa Bulow (42) and Trish Brown (33*) led the Fire to a competitive total of 197. Fury bowlers Wong, Kross, Stammers and Renee Chappell took one wicket each. The Fury leadership team Elwyn Campbell (93) and Zoe Goss (67) placed the Fury in a winning position with an opening partnership of 149. Despite a slight middle order collapse the Fury were able to post their second win of the season. Match two was a day of changing weather patterns. In bright sunshine, the Fire batted first and made 178. Julia Price (44) was the leading scorer for the Fire. The Fury’s opening bowlers, Connie Wong (2-22) and Cindy Kross (3-27) were outstanding and were well supported by the remainder of the attack, with all bowlers taking wickets. With rain falling during the lunch break, the Fury started their innings in vastly different conditions. Goss (31) and Holden (24) kept the Fury above the required Duckworth/Lewis run rate. With play stopped in the 31st over the match was declared a no result, due to a competition rule that states that there cannot be a difference of more than 15 overs faced by either team. Following a three-week break, the Fury faced the South Australian Scorpions, with Julie Woerner (45) T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 103 and Australian vice-captain Karen Rolton (102) the main stays in the Scorpions total of 225. Eighteen year old Lauren Stammers stood tall for the Fury with 70 runs from 86 balls, however her efforts would be in vain as the Fury folded at 9-185. Match two saw a much closer tussle. Fury opener Elwyn Campbell demonstrated her superb technique, reaching 69 in the Fury’s 167. The Scorpions scored slowly, thanks to a sensational effort from come back bowler Avril Fahey (1-24). Despite a valiant effort in the field, the Scorpions reached the total with two overs to spare. WACA Community Cricket Officer, Mark Sanders, took over the Fury team after the first round and was extremely pleased with the support received from the players. “The senior players were responsible for the changing success of the team, they stood up and provided a front for the group,” said Mark. Sanders played a key role in uniting the team and changing the focus of the group. Under Coach Sanders leadership, the Fury focused on playing a more accountable style of cricket, with honesty of effort and centering on the game plan, key principles for the players. Major contributors to the Fury team in 2003-04 were the support staff, which included no less than a Physiotherapist, Sports Trainer, Fitness Advisor, 104 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r Psychologist, Podiatrist and Nutritionist. Fitness Advisor, Rob Duffield, and Psychologist Barbara Dearden, have worked intensely with the group over the past 2 seasons. Both were given the opportunity to travel with the side over the 2003-04 season, providing skilled support and greatly contributing to the good feel of the group. The players were extremely appreciative of the support provided by all personnel and look forward to their continued involvement. National League Rankings 1.

Queensland Konica Fire Western Fury Player of the Year Former English international Dawn Holden was named the Western Fury Player of the Year. The left-arm orthodox spinner bowled with terrific economy and batted with a steady head, scoring her runs at an average of 30. The award was presented at the CUB Gold Cup Dinner, as part of the integration of women’s cricket into the WACA. Western Fury Captain Zoe Goss goes on the attack in the WNCL. Fury Young Guns The Western Fury blooded some young and exciting talent in 2003-04 and with ongoing support and opportunity, will form an important nucleus of the Fury for years to come. Lauren Stammers, Lauren Shave and Patrice Berthold were regular members of the Fury team throughout the Women’s National Cricket League and they featured strongly in the highlights of the season. With 8 matches in the 2002-03 season under her belt, Lauren Stammers settled her position as an all-rounder in the Fury. Lauren demonstrated great maturity and desire in her performances, scoring a hard fought 39 against Victoria and 70 runs against South Australia were highlights of Lauren’s season. The Australian selectors recognised Lauren’s exciting talents with her selection in the Australian Youth Team – Shooting Stars. Playing just three matches for the Fury in 2002-03, Patrice Berthold was determined to overcome injury troubles and cement her position in the team in 2003-04. The tall right-arm medium-fast bowler played six of the eight WNCL matches. At seventeen year of age, Lauren Shave is a name of the future. The right-arm pace bowler has developed into a consistent line and length bowler, her economy (3.71) was a feature of her bowling performances in 2003-04. Combined with her terrific debut year for the Fury, Lauren was an outstanding performer for WA at the Australian Under-19 Championships and has been selected in the 2004 Australian Youth Squad. Renee Chappell and Lauren Stammers join Lauren in the Youth Squad. Western Australian Under-19 Women’s Team For the first time in the history of the Championships,Tasmania hosted the 2003-04 carnival. After a poor start, Western Australia finished strongly to place fourth overall. WA faced eventual runner-up Queensland to push for a place in the Final. Queensland dominated the match scoring 225 and restricting WA to just 82. The first time Captaincy of 17-year-old Lauren Shave was outstanding. She performed the role with great maturity. Off-spin bowler Caroline Brough took some outstanding hauls, with 6-17 against Tasmania and 4-23 against South Australia. With just three days rest between the Australian Under-17 and Under-19 Championships, the efforts of Holly Hyder, Nicole Ayres and Melanie Chappell, who represented WA in both age groups, were outstanding.

T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 105 Country Cricket Report 2003-2004 By Troy Starcevich, WACA Regional Cricket Coordinator Lyle Jones (second from right) at the launch of the CBH sports sponsorship program in Narrogin. With Lyle are, from left,Terry Waldron, Dale Wansborough and Mick McGinniss Season 2003-04 proved to be significant for the administration of country cricket for two important reasons. First, was the creation by the WACA of a full-time country cricket administration position. This new position, which oversees all country cricket programs run by the WACA, will help to improve the efficiency of country cricket administration on a State-wide basis. The second significant event was the resignation of long-serving country cricket administrator, Lyle Jones. Lyle served on the WA Country Cricket Board, first as the Central Districts delegate and later as Chairman, for a total of 16 years. Through his strong relationships with the farming and sporting communities in rural WA, Lyle forged some important partnerships that have seen country cricket in WA prosper over the last decade into the sound position it is currently in today. Lyle has made an outstanding contribution to cricket in Western Australia. His friendly disposition and passion for the game will be sorely missed by all at the WACA. Western Power Regional Junior Cricket Program Western Power has sponsored the Regional Junior Cricket Program since 1997-98. With their support the WACA employs six regional cricket officers in the country regions. These officers are employed to assist the development of cricket with particular 106 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r emphasis on participation, coach education and talent identification. The six Western Power regional cricket officers employed by the WACA in 2003-04 were: Dale Ballantyne – Great Southern Mark Winnett – Goldfields Glen Collins – Wheatbelt Aaron Sheldon – Mid West Charlie Burke/Nathaniel Kett – Central Districts Ross Stephen – South West Highlights of the Western Power Regional Junior Cricket Program for 2003-04 included: • Program launch in Narrogin on 23rd October featuring approximately 200 local school students and appearances from Retravision Warriors players Brett Jones and Steven Jacques. • Western Power Junior Cricket Challenge on the WACA ground during the lunch break on Day 3 of the Perth Test which featured over 140 junior country cricketers. • The Western Power Junior Cricketer of the Year awards presented to six young cricketers during the lunch break of the Pura Cup Match between the Retravision Warriors and the NSW Speedblitz Blues on 25th January. • An overall increase in junior country cricket participation of 4% and an increase in Have-A-Go and Kanga cricket participation of 28%. • Approximately 4,500 boys and girls involved in school cricket carnivals. • A record number of 39 teams participated in Landmark Junior Country Week in Perth in January, representing an increase of 34% from last season. • The Lord’s Taverners winter training program was run in each region to provide specialist, one-on-one coaching for talented young cricketers. Landmark Senior Country Week Landmark Senior Country Week 2004 was held in Perth from Sunday 18th January to Saturday 24th January 2003. Fifty-four teams participated in Senior Country Week 2004, including an Indigenous XI team.

Landmark Junior Country Week A record number of 39 teams participated in Landmark Junior Country Week 2004 which was held in Perth from Monday 5th to Friday 9th January 2004. The winners of each section were as follows: A Section – Bunbury 1 B Section – Geraldton 1 C Section - Collie D Section – Bunbury 3 E Section – Bunbury 4 F Section – Peel 3 During Junior Country Week, two country teams are chosen to play against the best young players in the city at the SunSmart Under-16 State Carnival. This provides young country cricketers with the opportunity to be considered for selection in the State Under-17 team for the following season. AWB Country Cup The AWB Country Cup for season 2003-04 was contested between 22 of the WACA’s affiliated Country Associations. The competition culminated in a final between Geraldton and Upper Great Southern played at the WACA ground on Sunday 8th February. Details of the final were as follows: Geraldton 8-229 (Shayne Bidwell 61, Bruce Gillingham 45; Todd Dowling 2-35) def Upper Great Southern 148 All Out (Brett Blechynden 53; Brad Annison 3-12, John Faichney 3-22). CBH Country XI The CBH Country XI set off for the Australian Country Cricket Championship in Mt Gambier during January 2004 with strong hopes of defending the title they had won in Bundaberg the previous year. Lyle Jones retired in April 2004 after 10 years as Country Cricket Board Chairman. Jones first joined the Board in 1988 and spent 16 years serving country cricket in WA. Their title defence got away to a thrilling start against Queensland Country in a rain-shortened match. Set a modest 144 to win off 55 overs, the WA CBH Country XI seemed to be cruising to victory with just 10 runs required, four wickets in hand and plenty of balls to spare. But a hat-trick suddenly turned the match in Queensland’s favour and WA was bowled out soon after with the scores level. After this result, the team won only one of its remaining 4 games. This was against tournament new-comers East Asia Pacific in the final round. Despite a disappointing team performance at the Championship, three WA players were selected in the Australian Country team. They were batsmen Kris Elliot and Leigh Burns and keeper Brendan King. The CBH Country XI continued their recent success in the WACA Don’t Drink and Drive Shield competition. After losing the first game of the season to Subiaco-Floreat in Perth, the CBH Country XI recorded a stirring victory against Fremantle in round two and then comprehensively defeated Gosnells in Brookton to secure a place in the finals for the fourth consecutive season. In the quarter-final match against University at James Oval, young Wyalkatchem batsmen Kris Elliot scored a century to set up the CBH Country XI victory with just 2 balls to spare. The semi-final against Joondalup at Settlers Hills proved to be a tight, low scoring affair. After a shaky start, young Geraldton batsmen Anthony Easton (45) and Chris D’Mello (66) consolidated the middle order to see the Country XI reach 9 for 173 at the completion of its 50 overs. )43¬!"/54¬'2/74( )43¬!"/54¬9/5 7ERE¬HELPING¬RURAL¬7ESTERN¬!USTRALIA¬GROW¬AND¬WE¬SHOW¬IT¬4HATS¬WHY¬WE¬ARE¬SUPPORTING¬YOUR¬COMMUNITY¬BY¬SPONSORING¬LOCAL¬ SPORT¬7E¬ARE¬PROUD¬OF¬OUR¬LONG¬HISTORY¬OF¬WORKING¬TOGETHER¬WITH¬7!¬GROWERS¬AND¬WE¬UNDERSTAND¬RURAL¬7ESTERN¬!USTRALIA¬AND¬ ITS¬PEOPLE¬AT¬WORK¬OR¬AT¬PLAY¬¬4HE¬#"(¬'ROUP¬¬PROUDLY¬SUPPORTING¬COUNTRY¬SPORT P ro u d S p o n s o r s o f C o u n t r y We e k C r i c k e t Marketforce WDD0477 Doug Ellis continued his success over dashing Warriors batsman Ryan Campbell by having him caught behind without scoring. Despite this early set back, Joondalup won the match by three wickets and eventually went on to defeat Scarborough in the final two weeks later. CBH Country Colts The CBH Country Colts again kicked off their season with a pre-season tour, this time taking in the sights of the WA Wheatbelt, stopping along the way in Merredin and Wyalkatchem to conduct coaching sessions and trial games. The colts preseason tour is now entrenched as an integral part of the colts season. With Max Crook at the helm for his final season as coach, the CBH Country Colts failed to fulfil their potential during a winless season 2003-04. Despite this, there were some very positive signs to emerge. Young Geraldton quick Matt Craig has genuine pace and Mandurah all-rounder Craig White is a promising player who performed admirably when promoted to the Country XI. The WACA and the WA Country Cricket Board acknowledge the support of CBH for their sponsorship of the CBH Country XI and Country Colts programs. CBH Regional U-19 Carnival The CBH Regional Under-19 carnival was held for the second time in 2003-04 following the success of the original carnival the previous year. The purpose of the carnival is to provide those players who are too old for junior country week and who miss out on selection in senior country week with the opportunity to play against their peers. Four teams from six of the WACA’s regional zones took part in the carnival which was held at McGillivray Sportsgrounds during mid-January.

Any omission in failing to acknowledge the passing of a valued Member is sincerely regretted. Ms B. Anthony Mr R.P. Cox Mr N.F. Culloton Mr M.G. De Mamiel Mr F.V. Dunham Mrs M.R. Eaton Mr J.

(Wally) Langdon Born in Boulder in 1922, Wally Langdon was a schoolboy prodigy, excelling in most sports. He played Senior Country Week in 1937 as a 14 year old. He made his first Country Week century the following season. In five years in this competition he scored 1209 runs at 50.37 and took 68 wickets at 9.35 with his slow left arm deliveries. He was encouraged to come to Perth in November 1941 and made his pennant debut for Claremont with an impressive 152. An elegant left hand batsman he was only able to play nine clubs matches before war service in the RAAF claimed him. He was able to resume his club career in 1945-46, and made his State debut, against the MCC team the following season. Wally became an automatic choice from 1947-48 when WA entered the Sheffield Shield competition. His maiden first class hundred came at the end of season when the Australian team, “Bradman’s Invincibles”, passed through Perth. He so Mr G.F. Pegg Mr R. Pye Mr B.G. Rowe Mr D.W. Shand Mrs J.E. Siford Mr R.L. Southern Mr I.W. Steele Mrs M.J.Throssell Miss B.M.Willcock impressed the “Don” that he was invited, as the only WA player, to Bradman’s Testimonial match in December 1948. In 1949-50 he accepted an invitation to tour India with a Commonwealth team. He returned to the WA team the following year. He played State cricket for another three seasons before moving to England to play professional cricket for Burnley in the Lancashire League. Returning to Perth in 1955 he only played another two first class matches for WA before retiring to concentrate on a career and family. He had played only 29 matches for WA, scoring 1857 runs at 37.14 with 5 centuries, held 24 catches, and taken 23 wickets as an occasional bowler. Wally continued in club cricket until 1958-59 when he retired after 15 seasons. In all he played 126 matches, scored 6068 runs at 48.56 with 17 centuries, took 95 catches, and captured 192 wickets at 17.22. Beyond his retirement as a player Langdon later served the State as Selector and Coach. His combination with fellow selectors, Alan Edwards and Laurie Sawle, had stressed teamwork and a high standard of fielding. Their efforts set the tone for successful WA teams in the 1970’s. T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 113 Wally Langdon was also a highly respected media person as an extremely knowledgeable and erudite special comments broadcaster He passed away on 2 May 2004, aged 81. E.J. (Teddy) Martin The death occurred on 9 June 2004 of Australia’s, and WA’s, oldest first class cricketer, Edmund John Martin. In fact he was the only first class cricketer in Australia to reach a century in years. Born at Bendigo in Victoria in 1902, he came to WA in the early 1920’s so was a late starter in club cricket. An orthodox slow left-hander, he began with the Subiaco-Leederville club in first grade in 1927. In 1930-31 he had his best season, capturing 49 wickets at 15.61. His opportunity came for State representation in 1932-33 against Jardine’s MCC tourists. Martin captured three wickets in each innings,. His next match was for the Australian XI against the MCC. The Australian selectors brought in Richardson, Fingleton, Bradman and McCabe to bolster the local team. Tremendous crowds, nearly 20,000, attended this match on each of the three days. However, Martin did not take a wicket in the match. His performances in 1933-34 fell away and he was not selected for the WA tour to the east that season. So his only two first class matches produced 6 wickets at 48.50, and 3 runs from two innings. The Great Depression, job opportunities, and a young family allowed him to play only one more season of club cricket. So after 8 seasons he retired at the age of 33. He had taken 230 club wickets at 20.83 with 8-46 his best, scored 1441 runs at 15.01 with a top score of 84, and held 77 catches from his 99 matches. A very cheerful man, he lived in his own home until two years ago. He was 101 at the time of his death. 114 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r W.I. (Warren) Carter Warren Carter was a modest club player and coach for the Melville club before they gained first grade status. He turned to umpiring in the WACA district competition in 1958. He reached first grade level in three seasons. Carter’s knowledge of the game stood him in good stead. Thus he embarked on a first class career spanning nine seasons. In all he officiated in 24 Sheffield Shield games, 6 first class fixtures against international teams, and 4 limited overs games. He retired in 1976-77. In 1971 he was honoured with life membership of the WA Cricket Umpires Association. He retired in 1977 having stood in 288 pennant matches of which 184 were in first grade. He also guided his son, Warren, into pennant cricket umpiring. He passed away on 17 May, aged 82. Norma Foster (nee Connell) It is with sadness that we acknowledge the passing of Norma Foster on the 17th February 2004, at 81 years of age. In 1968 Norma was awarded a Life Membership by the WA Women’s Cricket Association, in acknowledgement of her years of service to the game. During her involvement in cricket she played for the Willows Women’s Cricket Club (based in Perth) and represented Western Australia at senior level from 1961-62 – 1967-68 (Captained WA 1963). Norma, a medium pace bowler, also held the positions of state selector and President of the Association in 1967-68.

(Association) for the year ended 30 June 2004 and the auditor's report thereon. Members of the Board The Members of the Board at any time during or since the end of the financial year are: Name of Member Position/Title CAC Fear PB Rakich WM Bryant FD O'Driscoll WJ Edwards AD Rule RG Paulsen PA Sullivan BG Marsh RK O'Connor QC WD Hill K Penter PL Murphy I Waite JA Worland J Rogers M Mascarenhas J Shepherd DH Foster RM McLean BT Thornton Chairman of the Board & Vice President President Vice President Vice President (Retired 30 June 2004) Vice President Honorary Treasurer Vice President (From 1 July 2004) Members' Representative (Retired 30 June 2004) Members' Representative (Retired 17 September 2003) Members' Representative (Retired 17 September 2003) Members' Representative Members' Representative Cricket Council Representative Cricket Council Representative Cricket Council Representative Cricket Council Representative (Retired 7 July 2003) Cricket Council Representative Members' Representative (From 17 September 2003) Members' Representative (From 17 September 2003) Members' Representative (From 1 July 2004) Members' Representative (From 1 July 2004) Review and result of operations During the year ended 30 June 2004 the Association recorded a disappointing reduction in operating surplus before interest and depreciation of $865,983 (2003: $1,506,828) a decrease of 43% compared with the previous year. Operating revenue decreased by approximately 6% due mainly to a reduction in revenue of $357,000 from lower than expected attendances at the Test and One Day Internationals (“ODI”) and a reduction in Membership Revenues of $264,000 as a result of decrease in membership numbers. There was a decrease in operating expenditure of 1% over the previous year due mainly to lower costs associated with the lower attendances at the Test and ODI’s, partially offset by increases in marketing and cricket operations expenditure. Depreciation of $1,249,165 (2003: $1,163,980) and borrowing costs of $959,911 (2003: $575,335) resulted in an operating deficit of $1,343,093 (2003: $232,487 deficit). This operating result was an aberration primarily due to the poor international program allocated to the Association by Cricket Australia.The 2004-05 program is more consistent with the typical program and should result in a substantial turnaround in the Association’s financial results.The Board has budgeted for a substantially improved result for the coming financial year. Events subsequent to balance date Since 30 June 2004, the Association discovered an alleged fraud by one of its employees. Further details are set out in Note 17.

T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 121 Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2004 1. Statement of significant accounting policies The significant policies which have been adopted in the preparation of this financial report are: (a) Basis of preparation The financial report is a general purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with Accounting Standards, Urgent Issues Group Consensus Views, other authoritative pronouncements and the Association Constitution in a form appropriate for a sporting association. It has been prepared on the basis of historical costs and except where stated, does not take into account changing money values or fair values of non-current assets. The accounting policies have been consistently applied and, except where there is a change in accounting policy, are consistent with those of the previous year. Liquidity The statement of financial position of the Association shows a shortfall between current assets and current liabilities of $2,072,987 (2003:$1,294,954). Details of the Association’s financing facilities are set out in Note 12. The facilities are of a long-term nature requiring principal reductions of $875,000 in the year to 30 June 2005, and $1,200,000 per annum thereafter. The interest cover covenant under the facility was not achieved for the year ended 30 June 2004. Commonwealth Bank of Australia (“CBA”) has advised that it will not exercise its rights relating to that breach.The Association has provided to CBA the budget for the year ending 2005, and will be providing a 5 year forecast. Based on the budget result for the year ending 30 June 2005, the Association will not be able to comply with the interest cover covenant set by CBA under the facility. Accordingly, the Association has formally requested a reduction of the interest cover covenant from CBA to ensure future compliance. Based on the budgeted result for the year to 30 June 2005, the Association believes that it will generate operating cash surpluses sufficient to meet the repayment obligations of its financing facilities with CBA. In addition, should the need arise,the Board is confident that the principal repayment schedule could be renegotiated with CBA. (b) Revenue recognition Revenues are recognised at fair value of the consideration received net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST) payable to the Australian Taxation Office (ATO). Exchanges of goods or services of the same nature and value without any cash consideration are not recognised as revenues. Marketing Marketing income is predominantly derived from sponsorship, signage and corporate box sales. All monies received from sponsorship relate principally to the cricket season. Signage and corporate box sales are recognised in accordance with the terms of the specific contract. Sale of goods Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised (net of returns, discounts and allowances) when control of the goods passes to the buyer. Sale of non-current assets The gross proceeds of non-current asset sales are included as revenue at the date control of the asset passes to the buyer, usually when an unconditional contract of sale is signed. The gain or loss on disposal is calculated as the difference between the carrying amount of the asset at the time of disposal and the net proceeds on disposal. Membership Membership revenue is derived through renewals, nomination and subscription fees. All membership income is recognised in the financial year in which it has been received to accurately match membership revenue with events held. Cricket Cricket income is generated via distributions from Cricket Australia (formerly the Australian Cricket Board) and other related grants. All grants and distributions received throughout the year are recognised in the period for which they specifically relate. Deferred income To the extent that funds have been received in advance of the Association meeting its obligations, that income is deferred to be recognised in the period to which it relates. Catering income Catering income is commission income received as agent of the caterer from the combination of functions and special events held throughout the year at the venue. Interest revenue Interest revenue is recognised as it accrues, taking into account the effective yield on the financial asset. 122 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2004 (c) Borrowing costs Borrowing costs include interest, amortisation of discounts or premiums relating to borrowings, amortisation of ancillary costs incurred in connection with arrangement of borrowings, including lease finance charges. Borrowing costs are expensed as incurred unless they relate to qualifying assets. Qualifying assets are assets which take more than 12 months to get ready for their intended use or sale. In these circumstances, borrowing costs are capitalised to the cost of the assets. Where funds are borrowed specifically for the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset, the amount of borrowing costs capitalised are those incurred in relation to that borrowing, net of any interest earned on those borrowings. (d) Goods and services tax Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the ATO. In these circumstances, the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included as a current asset or liability in the statement of financial position. Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are classified as operating cash flows. (e) Taxation The Association is exempt from the payment of income tax under the Income Tax Assessment Act. (f) Acquisitions of assets All assets acquired including property, plant and equipment are initially recorded at their cost of acquisition at the date of acquisition, being the fair value of the consideration provided plus incidental costs directly attributable to the acquisition. The costs of assets constructed include the cost of materials and direct labour. Directly attributable overheads and other incidental costs are also capitalised to the asset. Borrowing costs are capitalised to qualifying assets as set out in Note 1(c). (g) Cash assets and bank overdrafts Cash assets and bank overdrafts are carried at face value of the amounts deposited or drawn. (h) Receivables Trade debtors Trade debtors are generally settled within 30 days and are therefore carried at amounts due. In addition to a general provision of $10,000 being maintained against trade debtors outstanding, a specific provision is established at the time a debt is considered doubtful. (i) Inventories Inventory is carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value Net realisable value is determined on the basis of each inventory line's estimated selling price. (j) Leased plant and equipment Finance leases which effectively transfer to the Association substantially all of the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the leased item are capitalised at the present value of the minimum lease payments and disclosed as leased assets, with a corresponding liability included in the financial statements. Lease liabilities are reduced by repayment of principal.The interest components of the lease payments are expensed in the statement of financial performance. (k) Recoverable amount of non-current assets valued on cost basis The carrying amounts of non-current assets valued on the cost basis are reviewed to determine whether they are in excess of their recoverable amount at balance date. If the carrying amount of a non-current asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is written down to the lower amount. The write-down is recognised T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 123 Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2004 as an expense in the statement of financial performance in the reporting period in which it occurs. Where a group of assets working together supports the generation of cash inflows, recoverable amount is assessed in relation to that group of assets. In assessing recoverable amounts of non-current assets, the relevant cash flows have not been discounted to their present value. (l) Depreciation Useful lives All non-current assets have limited useful lives and are depreciated using the straight line method over their estimated useful lives. Assets are depreciated from the date of acquisition or, in respect of internally constructed assets, from the time an asset is completed and held ready for use. Depreciation rates and methods are reviewed annually for appropriateness. When changes are made, adjustments are reflected prospectively in current and future periods only. Depreciation is expensed. The depreciation rates used for each class of asset are as follows: 2004 2003 Land and buildings 2.5% 2.5% Plant and equipment 16.7% 16.7% Office furniture and equipment 16.7%-33.3% 16.7%-33.3% (m) Payables Liabilities are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods or services received. Trade accounts payable are normally settled within 60 days. (n) Interest bearing liabilities Bank bills are carried on the statement of financial position at their principal amount. Discount and usage fees (borrowing costs) are initially taken to prepayments before being amortised to the statement of financial performance over the term of the bills. (o) Employee entitlements Wages, salaries, annual leave and sick leave Liabilities for employee benefits for wages and salaries (including non-monetary benefits), annual leave and sick leave to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date represent present obligations resulting from employees’ services provided up to the reporting date, calculated at undiscounted amounts based on remuneration rates that the Association expects to pay including related on-costs. Long service leave The provision for employee benefits for long service leave represents the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made resulting from employees’ services provided up to reporting date. The provision is calculated using expected future increases in wage and salary rates including related on-costs and expected settlement dates based on turnover history and is discounted using the rates attaching to national government securities at balance date which most closely match the terms of maturity of the related liabilities. Superannuation plan The Association contributes to defined contribution employee superannuation plans. Contributions are charged against income as they are made (p) Financial instruments Net fair values of financial assets and liabilities Monetary financial assets and financial liabilities not readily traded in an organised financial market are determined by valuing them at the present value of the contractual future cash flows on amount due from customers (reduced for expected credit losses) or due to suppliers. The carrying amounts of bank term deposits, trade debtors, term debtors, other debtors, bank overdrafts, accounts payable, bank bills and employee benefits approximate net fair value. Credit risk The credit risk on financial assets of the Association which has been recognised on the statement of financial position, is the carrying amount, net of any provision for doubtful debts. 124 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2004 2004 $ 2. 3.

Although the bank overdraft is unsecured, the Association has agreed, as documented in a Deed of Negative Pledge, not to encumber any of its assets to other creditors without prior written consent of the Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA). Interest on the bank overdraft is charged at the CBA index rate less a margin of 2%. The weighted average interest rate at 30 June 2004 is 7.45% (2003:6.95%) (ii) Bank bill facility In February 2002 a bank bill facility was put in place with CBA specifically to finance the Association’s ground redevelopment work. The facility is unsecured and interest bearing at the CBA BBSY rate, determined at the time of drawdown, plus a margin. The weighted average interest rate at 30 June 2004 is 6.34% (2003:6.30%) 128 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2004 Arrangements were put in place to fix the interest rate on $11,000,000 of the total facility at 6.45% for a period of 5 years from 2 January 2003. Principal reductions commence from 4 January 2005 at the rate of $275,000 each quarter, until maturity on 2 October 2007.At that date, the residual face value of $7,700,000 is to revert to be aggregated with the residual face value of the variable rate bill facility. Principal reductions to the $1,700,000 variable rate facility commence on 4 January 2005 with $325,000 and then $50,000 each half year commencing 4 July 2005 until and including 2 July 2007. Thereafter, principal reductions shall be made at $325,000 on 2 January 2008 and then $600,000 each half year commencing 2 July 2008 with full clearance by 30 June 2014. Although the bank bill facility is unsecured, the Association has agreed, as documented in a Deed of Negative Pledge, not to encumber any of its assets to other creditors without prior written consent of the CBA. The interest cover covenant under the facility was not achieved for the year ended 30 June 2004. CBA has advised that it will not exercise its rights relating to that breach.The Association has provided to CBA the budget for the year ending 30 June 2005, and will be providing a 5 year forecast. Based on the budget result for the year ending 30 June 2005, the Association will not be able to comply with the interest cover covenant set by CBA. Accordingly, the Association has formally requested a reduction of the interest cover covenant from CBA to ensure future compliance. (iii) Leasing facilities In February 2002 a facility was put in place with the CBA for the acquisition of most types of depreciating business assets including, plant, machinery, motor vehicle and computer equipment by way of Hire Purchase or Lease Contracts. The facility is available subject to an annual review. (iv) CBA Business Credit Card In February 2002 a Bank Business Charge Card facility from the CBA was put in place.

Contingent asset Potential insurance recovery In July 2004 an alleged fraud over the last 4 years by an Association employee was discovered.The employee has since been charged with one count of fraud. A claim has been lodged with the Association's insurer and a forensic accountant has been appointed by the insurer to investigate and quantify the alleged fraud. The limit under the insurance policy is $200,000.The investigation and quantification is still ongoing but at the date of this report, the Association has identified a number of transactions totalling $139,897 that will form part of the claim against the insurance policy. The alleged fraud appears to have been perpetrated in relatively small amounts over a number of years as follows: • Year ended 30 June 2001 $500 • Year ended 30 June 2002 $50,420 • Year ended 30 June 2003 $22,074 • Year ended 30 June 2004 $66,903 The claim against the insurance policy may increase by the time the forensic investigation is completed but is limited to $200,000. The contingent asset, being the potential recovery under the insurance policy, has not been recognised as a receivable at 30 June 2004 as the amount of the claim has not yet been quantified in full nor has the insurer admitted the claim under the policy. 130 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2004 Note 2004 $ 2003 $ 18.

Related parties Members of the Board Members of the Board do not receive any remuneration or compensation for services rendered on any committees or the Board. During the 2004 financial year, specialist spin bowling coaching services were provided on normal terms by Members’ Representative, Mr RG Paulsen. Payments made during that year amounted to $150 (2003: $450). Apart from the details disclosed in this note, no Member of the Board has entered into a material contract with the Association since the end of the previous financial year and there were no material contracts involving Members' of the Board interests subsisting at year-end. 20. Segment reporting The Association operates wholly within one business segment being the promotion and development of cricket in Western Australia. T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 131 Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2004 21. International Financial Reporting Standards For reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2005, the Association must comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board. This financial report has been prepared in accordance with Australian accounting standards and other financial reporting requirements (Australian GAAP). The differences between Australian GAAP and IFRS identified to date as potentially having a significant effect on the Association's financial performance and financial position are summarised below. The summary should not be taken as an exhaustive list of all the differences between Australian GAAP and IFRS. No attempt has been made to identify all disclosure, presentation or classification differences that would affect the manner in which transactions or events are presented. The Association has not quantified the effects of the differences discussed below. Accordingly, there can be no assurances that the Association's financial performance and financial position as disclosed in this financial report would not be significantly different if determined in accordance with IFRS. Regulatory bodies that promulgate Australian GAAP and IFRS have significant ongoing projects that could affect the differences between Australian GAAP and IFRS described below and the impact of these differences relative to the Association's financial reports in the future. The potential impacts on the Association's financial performance and financial position of the adoption of IFRS, including system upgrades and other implementation costs which may be incurred, have not been quantified as at the transition date of 1 July 2004 due to the short timeframe between finalisation of the IFRS standards and the date of preparing this report.The impact on future years will depend on the particular circumstances prevailing in those years. The key potential implications of the conversion to IFRS on the Association are as follows: • financial instruments must be recognised in the statement of financial position and most financial assets must be carried at fair value. • impairments of assets will be determined on a discounted basis, with strict tests for determining whether cash-generating operations have been impaired • changes in accounting policies will be recognised by restating comparatives rather than making the current year adjustments with note disclosure of prior year effects. 22. Events subsequent to balance date Since 30 June 2004, the Association discovered an alleged fraud by one of its employees. Further details are set out in Note 17. Apart from the above, there has not arisen in the interval between the end of the financial year and the date of this report, any item, transaction or event of a material nature likely, in the opinion of the members of the Board of the Association, to affect materially the operations or state of affairs of the Association in future financial years. 132 T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r Board’s Declaration In the opinion of the Members of the Board of the Western Australian Cricket Association (Inc.): (a) the financial statements and notes, set out on pages 119 to 132: (i) present fairly the financial position of the Association as at 30 June 2004 and of its performance, as represented by the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended on that date; and (ii) comply with Accounting Standards in Australia and Association Constitution; and (b) as set out in note 1(a), there are reasonable grounds to believe that the Association will be able to pay its debts as and when they become due and payable.

T h e We s t e r n C r i c k e t e r 167 Sheffield Shield / Pura Cup Results History of Sheffield Shield/Pura Cup In 1891 Lord Sheffield, a patron of Sussex cricket and a President of Sussex C.C.C., financed a trip to Australia by an England team captained by W. Grace. His Lordship was so delighted with the reception he and the team received in Australia he gave the Australian Cricket Council the sum of 150 guineas for the benefit of cricket in the colonies. The Council, in its wisdom decided to purchase a shield for competition among the three colonies of New South Wales, Victoria and South Australia. The shield measures 122 cms by 76 cms and bears the Sheffield and Australian coat of arms. The first year of competition was 1892-93, and the competition has continued regularly ever since with the exception of the years of the two World Wars. The three original colonies (now states) have since been joined by Queensland (1926-27), Western Australia (1947-48) and Tasmania (1977-78). Western Australian has completed in 427 Shield matches and 50 Pura Cup matches. Pura Cup sponsorship was introduced in 1999-2000. Captains and Records Name Inverarity R.J. Wood G.M. Moody T.M.

In the early years of the competition it was played as a 40, eight-ball overs a side knock-out. New Zealand was successful in the first year, defeating Victoria in the final. They won three finals in the first six years before dropping out of the competition at the end of the 1974-75 season. Subsequent modifications to the rules saw the overs increased to 50, six-ball overs a side, in 1978-79.
