Brendon & Gareth

15 year old Tatts 2nd XI players Brendan Ward and Gareth Chalmers had a big day out last Saturday at Gately Field against Commercials. Ward completed every young cricketers dream to score his first hundred in senior cricket with a fine effort to bat through the Tatts innings to bring up his hundred with a two off the last ball of the allocated 45 overs. Gareth Chalmers showed improvement with his fast medium pacers to also return his first 5 wicket haul to claim 5/25 from 6 overs to destroy the Commercials top order.

Tatts 1st Grade Captain Rodney Kirk with the Premiership Shield won by Tatts in the 2001/2002 Grand Final. This was Tatts 4th successive win and Rodney's 3rd as captain.

Captain Kirk
slips2.jpg (123587 bytes) The Tatts Sunday team of the late 80's and early 90's was well known for its' ability to dominate the competition all year until the semi-finals, when they would promptly powder. At one stage they lost 15 consecutive semi-finals, until finally breaking through for a well-deserved Grand Final win in 1993-94. They were also well known for the size of their slips cordon. The combined talents(?) of 'The Egg', 'Con', 'Hoo Haa', 'Butch' and 'Digger' meant that their slips field took up most of the off-side of the field. The simultaneous cries of 'yours' as balls flew past the slips echoed around the cricket grounds in Narrabri. Needless to say their lack of agility in the field was more than compensated by their ability to hit the cover off the ball and intimidate the opposition! Many of their pre-game rituals were also inspired by 1st Grade Captain of the time 'Burko', whose warm up usually consisted of getting blind the night before!
