"We thought the rules were very clear", says David O'Neil, "and that after the rounds we'd play the semi- final. But the Association disagreed, and so we sued on a point of principle." Western Suburbs took the matter to the Supreme Court, seeking an injunction to prevent the semi-finals from being played until the ambiguity in the rules was resolved by the Court.

Corey Rocchiccioli is pushing to be Australia's next Test spinner having been the leading spin-bowler in Sheffield Shield cricket the past two seasons. It's not been a straight forward journey to become Western Australia's first-choice spinner though.

At 18, 'Roc' was playing 4th grade and after changing grade clubs, he was the 7th choice spinner at University CC. But through "being naive", a sheer love of cricket, curiosity and, an incredible work ethic, Rocchiccioli has been instrumental in Western Australia's back to back to back Sheffield Shield victories and is well and truly on the radar of the Aussie selectors.

I've been fortunate to have some amazing guests on The Cricket Mentoring Podcast. Corey Rocchiccioli isn't the biggest name we've had but this was the longest and most in depth and insightful chat we've ever had.

This podcast, broken into 2 episodes, is full of value and so many practical tips anyone can implement into their sport or life.

It's an inspiring story and one that has so much to still come. I hope you enjoy listening to/watching it as much as I did.

I am counting down what I believe are the five greatest Douglas Cup Finals. This match is the fifth on the list.

No.5 – 1930/31 – Northbourne v Ainslie – The match which went on forever!

The 1930/31 Final was held between Northbourne and Ainslie and started at Manuka Oval. Northbourne were the Minor Premiers by one point from Queanbeyan and Ainslie finished third after the home and away series. This Final was the first to be held at Manuka Oval, previous finals had been held Northbourne Oval and the Acton Sports Ground.

After finishing on top through the pool rounds, the boys earnt a home Grand Final hosting Charlestown at Waratah Oval.

Charlestown won the toss and had a bat. We didn't have to wait long for the first action, with Irfan Ali picking up wickets in consecutive balls to have them 2/0 in the third over. Robert Hill then picked up the 3rd wicket, bowling a tight opening spell to put the pressure on.

Jono Twomey (4/10 off came on first change and was near unplayable, with his spell having Charlestown reeling at 7/37 halfway through their innings. Charlestown had a bit of a fightback for the 8th wicket with Winpenny (29) pushing the total up, with Jacob Hill (2/19) cleaning up the tail after a strong spell to have them all out for 80.

Olivier Koehn (40*) and Toby Chillingworth got us off to a fantastic start in the chase, and skipper Josh Brackenbury (36* off 28) got it finished quickly. A 9 wicket win with 19 overs to spare sums up a dominant performance from the Tahs.
