I'm allowed to post whatever crap I want in this forum, as long as its kinda creative and funny, right?
Hopefully that doesn't rule this thread out and people actually contribute. It takes like 3 minutes and everyone knows how to use paint! :thumbsu:

[The Dice Man]

When I was in under 15s I took this massive speccy on the shoulders of 2 opponents. Had the perfect launch, great height and bought the ball down all the way.

Was right in front of where both teams coaches and fans where so no-one missed it. And that mark alone got me Man of The Match and some flowers to take home to mum.

I think this picture represents the occasion perfectly(except we didnt wear Richmond jumpers, but I couldnt bring myself to paint myself in Poo and Wee colors)

My brother is actually AK-47.

[Captain Sensible]

I took the greatest mark of my life at the Whitten Oval when I was a teenager playing kick to kick with my mates. I jumped, got a sit on the front of someones shoulders, rode that and then threw myself over the pack to take the speccy. While I was laying on the ground recovering I heard clapping and looked over to see Royce Hart standing there with a look of disbelief clapping his hands. He told me it was one of the best marks he'd ever seen.

[AK-47]

My brother is actually AK-47.
You knew I wasn't very good at cricket, brah. Not something to brag about.

I took a speccy in the goal square in under 15's, in our grandfinal, kicked the goal after the siren and we beat a team that hadn't lost a game in 3 years.

I won the b&f for the club that year, was strange because i dont remember doing anything else all year.

This was the wet winter's day when I scored a hat trick of tries against Agen while playing juniors for Toulouse in 1996.

You can see me here crossing for my 3rd, an intercept try against the run of play.

I am terrible at paint.

But one time i was at the TFL wtih my brother and mother. Clarence V North Hobart. Great top of the table match :thumbsu:

Anyway at one stage Peter Ricci (i think) took a great contested grab in the goalsquare. AT THAT VERY MOMENT, the goal umpire collapsed to the ground, clutching at his chest, clearly in a lot of trouble. He was in really bad nick, we all assumed he was having a heart attack.

As someone was arranging to get him stretchered off and into an ambulance, Peter Ricci (or whoever it was) noticed that there was an ABC cameraman filming the poor goal ump from over the fence. So he walked over right in front of the camera, looked it in the lense and pretended he was lining up for goal. he took a couple of steps into his runup then started laughing.

At the time i thought it was funny too, but in hindsight, that was a prick of a thing to do, a bloke is lying dying right next to him and he's there cracking jokes.

Got a cheapy whilst cheating out the back of a pack in the last couple of minutes of the vets GF back in 97. I took off with 3 blokes chasing me and as I hit the goal square, I turned arounf and flipped the bird at them then kicked the goal. They were fucking spewing.....one of them kept running at me and was going to clean me up after the kick but I just stopped and he missed I laughed at him which didn't help his demeanour LOL

It is art. Not like the kind of things you scrawl on the back of the toilet block with your 'mate'. Culture (get some).

[Mancey]

1998, Melville oval playing for Marist Newman Old boys 5th grade against Melville.

Came in at 11 with us still needing 8 runs to win, and some wiley prick ex grade cricketer bowling at the death, swinging them around everywhere. After surviving a couple of shouts i managed to nick a run here and there until it came down to us needing 3 to win.

Old wiley bastard comes in off the long run, the nut looks a like nice wide one that i might be able to jag a 4 off. But the ball swings away a touch, as i look to the sky, trying to pull off a poor imitation of a Ricky Ponting cover drive to win the game in a blaze of glory.

In horror i feel the ball snick the edge, i wheel around expecting to see the slip cordon snaffle it and begin the celebrations, and for my skipper to start drilling me about what a stupid prick i was.

The ball flies straight between 1st and second. No third man on account of me being an absolute crab, and Melville bringing the field in trying to keep me on strike.

The pace on the ball makes it fly to the boundary and i whoop it up running to the other end with bat raised to the boys on the boundary.

Many of the 90's toff private schoolboy beer of choice, the crownie, follow.

Good times

Just a observation, shouldn't the red spot be on the other edge of the bat if you were going for a drive :p

That's clearly an old cherry.

Hey Crackers, did you end up winning the Grand Final?

[beef tea]

nice story mancey. was herman playing for melville that day? :):thumbsu:

[Chrisrocks53]

This story isnt as dramatic as Mancey's great knock, but this is my greatest achievement.

I'd be what you call an all rounder that can't bat or bowl and therefore dont have many achievements.

The scene:

our opening bowlers had been spanked around by a batsmen that plays for a university side. This triggers my coach to make a move from left field: give Goolies a bowl.

I'm amazed, certainly that couldnt be true.

It was and I had to start my over.

Wide, No-Ball, Wide, Dot, Wide, Dot, Dot, No-Ball

I could hardly land one.

Then I rip one down legside, tempts the guy to dance down the pitch, beats him and my keepers knocks the bails out of the stumps.

Gone: Melbourne Uni Keeper

Hunter: Me

No one could believe it, I had made the breakthrough what the opening bowlers couldnt.

That wicket triggered a collapse and we rolled them for 130.

We ended up losing the game, but it will forever be remembered for me taking the first wicket.

I can hardly remember the guys on my team let alone the opposition mate:D

Tragic postscript to that story, i basically bowled shit that day, so my batting heroics didn't stop me getting dropped a grade the next week.

Got a few free beers that night tho:thumbsu:

[FG]

So you were playing sixth grade. What type of people play in sixth grade cricket?

[crackers57]

Shit yeah....the old boys sure hit the piss that night.....and day......and night :D

No wonder why he got out Chris, look at his head position.

[Mancey]

Was 8th's actually.:o But i was a pretty young bloke at the time.

Weird quirk of the Perth Suburban Turf competition. There's a elevation and relegation system, where they total up all your clubs results from the previous year.

The top half play 1st, 3rd, 5th, 8th and 10th grade, the bottom half play 2nd's, 4th's, 6th's, 7th's and 9th grade.

We were in the top tier, so if you were dropped from 5th's you played 8th's. You can only fit 11 blokes in each grade, and a heap of people play cricket in Perth, there was never any problem filling the sides.

TBH 5th's is quite a high standard of game. 8th's was mainly 40+ blokes who were quite good cricketers, who wanted to keep playing competitive cricket, and young blokes like myself

MNOB was a real boys club in every sense of the word, there was a real clique and it was hard to get a spot in the top teams unless you were part of it.

After a year i got sick of the pricks and went to play in the hills league...those boys love the piss, good times.

So fifth grade is pretty much Thirds.

Fair enough.

I remember sub fielding for the 2nds one day (Victorian Cricket), and this guy who'd started his innings the week before was on about 7.
First over, I was fielding at mid-on, and this guy got a perfect ball bowled to him, and as expected edged it straight to the slips.
The bloke standing in the slips was one of the guys that fields there because he's too fat to field anywhere else - a pinch hitter when he bats, ie either a dot or a boundary.

Anyway, the ball flies towards him, and hits him in the moob. So far, so good, as it rebounds pretty much straight into his hands.

Interestingly, he moved his hands and it just managed to get a little bit of air off the inside of his left hand, bobbled up and bounced off his chest again, onto the other hand, onto his shoulder, then through his outstretched hands and onto the turf.

Needless to say, the whole team was shattered, as they were pulling for a finals spot.

Fielding at mid-on, I watched the whole sordid affair, pissing myself laughing the whole while - soon turned to horror as the bloke made the most of his second chance, belting every second ball to the fence in an eventual double century.

None, it's your office - you can do what you want.
Unlawful imprisonment, rape.

[Chrisrocks53]

No wonder why he got out Chris, look at his head position.

If you ever saw how I bowled Trav, you couldn't question his attempts to heave it that high.:p

Plus, thats my new batting technique: hit out or get out.

I reckon I could seriously be the worst batsmen you have ever seen.

My high score of 5 reflects this. :o

Every year, without fail, I'll find a new way to get myself out.

So in summary, im the worst cricketer to have played 40+ games, at least I'm a handy fieldsmen at fine leg ;)

Lol well least you try :p

haha, I got an award at Grade 6 Graduation for that exact same thing

It was called the "Endeavour" Award, in the same ilk of the coaches award.

In simple interwebs terms, it was presented to the person that tried there hand at everything, but he wouldn't let epic failure hassle him and would move on to the next task = I was shit at everything, but I gave a red hot go.

I too won a lot of "most improved" and "coaches" awards...

The fact that one of our last junior games I was one of only 2 kids on the bench, yet won "most improved" showed my remarkable shitness...

[Dude Lebowski]

Grew up on the West Coast of Tasmania, during Winter it would piss down. 78 days in a row one year and if it wasn't raining, it was snowing or the Hydro would just seed the clouds to make it rain to fill the dams. Come halfway during the season, all the grounds were just mud or gravel in Queenstown's case. :p

This particular ground was built on an old rubbish tip and had a bike track around it, so the rain would run down this and wouldn't escape and be like a big bowl of water. It was that muddy that if you weren't playing, you needed knee high gumboots to walk on it.

This particular day playing in the Under 9's, I got tackled and fell face first into a big puddle. I tried to get up and couldn't, some chunky fuck was sitting on me and I was flailing around taking in mouth fulls of water. I remember thinking, that fucking ump better blow the whistle or I'm dead. So about 10secs later he blows the whistle and I get up choking and spitting out fuck knows what and he says 'yeeer right sonny'. No I wasn't alright and where's the free kick for attempted drowning.:thumbsu:

Same ground in Under 14's, I accidently clothes-lined someone and his knee-cap decided to go in the opposite direction to the rest of his leg. Remember picking up the ball to clear it away and hearing this banshee-esque squealing behind me. Went back to have a look and it wasn't a pretty sight.

Colours might look a bit off. I'm colour blind, so it can be a bitch looking at that palette trying to select the right colour. :confused: Plus I discovered I fucking suck at drawing.
