Office Bearers

As foreshadowed in the Chairman’s Report last year, Tim Considine stepped down as Chairman of the Fitzroy Doncaster Cricket

Club at the Annual General Meeting held in July 2013. Tim set a new vision for the Fitzroy Doncaster Cricket Club, particularly

with respect to a regional alliance plan. It is a privilege to replace Tim in the role of Club President, and I would like to thank him

for his support and guidance during the hand over period.

Cricket

Firstly, I would like to acknowledge the

coaching staff and playing group for their

achievements. It was very satisfying to end

the season with both our Second and Fourth

XI teams in finals. The Fourth XI players

acquitted themselves well in a drawn quarter

final that we had to win against Hawthorn

Monash, the eventual premiers. They all

learnt much from the experience. The

Second XI, well what can be said, to win

three knock out finals against Richmond,

Carlton and Dandenong to win the

premiership was simply outstanding and will

long be remembered.

Congratulations to all the other Premiers in men’s and women’s Premier Cricket this season and to the St Kilda Cricket Club on

winning the Club Championship.

For Lloyd Mash, I am sure this success for the Club was a proud moment in his fourth season as Senior Coach. I would like to say

thank you to Lloyd on behalf of all the Committee, members and players on the effort and achievements over his four year

tenure. Lloyd will be taking time out next season. We wish him and his family well, and trust that in the future we will see Lloyd

around the Club in some capacity.

I would also like to extend thanks to Assistant Coach Stuart Clarke and Development Coach John Hayes who both provided

excellent support to Lloyd and provided a large contribution around the Club over several seasons.

Plans are well underway for the coming season. Everyone is now aware that Michael O’Sullivan has been appointed as Senior

Coach for two years. I cannot over emphasise firstly, how fortunate we are to have gained the services of Michael, and secondly

how well this places our Club to leverage off the existing players’ capabilities. We look forward to more success.

I am also very pleased to confirm that we have retained the services of Sean Pietersz as Assistant Coach, which we were very

keen to achieve, and Steve Cashen as batting coach. The Cricket Committee are still finalising the other coaching roles but I

would like to express my thanks to Jeff Harvey, Leigh Watts, and particularly Ben Waterman who worked tirelessly to put in

place the new coaching structure.

President’s Report

Finance

Despite a very strong focus on cost control throughout the season, it is disappointing to report again this season that the Club

recorded a financial loss. Fortunately, the loss was less than last season, and although small in cash terms, it was, however

completely unsatisfactory.

The primary cause of the loss was the pre-season decision by the Committee to include the cost of player clothing in the fees for

2013/14, which ultimately we could not offset with anticipated increases to fundraising.

To improve our financial management, we purchased a new finance system at the start of the season to record accurately all

financial transactions, and the Committee now has access to improved reporting. Together with other controls implemented by

Alex, our new Treasurer, we have improved our budgeting to manage our financial position.

To address the financial situation, the Committee has remained active since the end of season. The key focus has been the

identification of potential sponsors and preparation of sponsor packages that will leverage off our outstanding social media

capability.

Operations

At a Special General Meeting held in September, we adopted a new constitution based on the Consumer Affairs Victoria Model

Rules. In doing so, we reverted to the more traditional terms of Committee and President, rather than Board and Chairman.

This season the Cricket Committee continued working to improve our facilities with Manningham Council, particularly around

our goals and requirements for the turf wickets and ovals. This effort saw our ground ranking improve to a level where we were

eligible to host the Men’s Fourth XI Grand Final.

Thanks largely to the effort of Wayne Stewart in his first season as Game Day Manager, we hosted a number of other significant

games for Cricket Victoria. Including the Women’s, First and Second XI Grand Finals, and two ‘All – abilities’ games, the first of

which was attended by the Minister for Sport and Recreation, the Honourable Hugh Delahunty and Tony Dodemaide, CEO of

Cricket Victoria.

In addition, Schramms Reserve became the training venue for the Australian Women’s Cricket Team, the Southern Stars, before

leaving for their successful T20 campaign in Bangladesh.

These events at Schramms were important opportunities for us to showcase our facilities to Cricket Victoria. The Committee

believes Schramms Reserve is in a great location, with good facilities and easy access from the city, enabling it to be a key

cricketing venue in the City of Manningham. We will continue to work alongside the Council with the aim of developing the

facilities accordingly.

Community

In the community, our alliance with the Manningham Cricket Club, is an

important initiative for both of our Clubs and continues to develop. For

example, this season Manningham Cricket Club ran their ‘in2cricket’

program at Schramms on Saturday mornings. We have a role to assist in the

development of cricket within our region, particularly in junior cricket. It is

consistent with Cricket Victoria’s direction for Premier Cricket, and it

provides an opportunity for both clubs to fundraise jointly through much

larger events, such as the breakfast function held in February 2014.

In closing, I would like to acknowledge the hard work of everyone on the Committee and the Cricket Committee. I can assure

Members that we are determined to be a sustainably, successful club.

Special thanks to our volunteers, particularly Graeme, Ilva and Glenn Woolard, Roger Page and Les Allan, and the parents who

have helped on match days and Thursday nights.

The sad passing of our long standing volunteers, Don Patrick and Les Allan this season, gave us cause to reflect on how

important volunteers are to the fabric of clubs, and a great satisfaction in life is being able to give to others.

Finally, I would like to acknowledge Cricket Victoria whose support is invaluable.

Go Lions!

Graeme Cook

President

Independent Audit Report to Members



Scope

We have audited the accompanying financial report, being a special purpose financial report, of Fitzroy Doncaster Cricket Club

Inc., which comprises the statement of financial position as at 30 April 2014, the results of its operations for the period then

ended in accordance with the accounting policies described in Note 1 to the financial statements for the year then ended, notes

comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the declaration by the

committee of management.

Committee of management's responsibility for the financial report

The committee of management is responsible for the preparation of the financial report, and have determined that the basis of

preparation described in Note 1, is appropriate to meet the

requirements of the Associations Incorporation Act (Victoria) and is appropriate to meet the

needs of the members. The committee of management's responsibility also includes such internal control as the committee of

management determine is necessary to enable the preparation of a financial report that is free from material misstatement,

whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We have conducted our audit in accordance

with Australian Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit

engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial report is free from material

misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and

disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgement, including the assessment of the

risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor

considers internal control relevant to the association's preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view, in order

to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the

effectiveness of the association's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies

used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the officers, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the

financial report.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the financial report presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Fitzroy Doncaster Cricket

Club Inc. as at 30 April 2014 and its financial performance for the year then ended in accordance with the financial reporting

requirements of the Associations Incorporation Act (Victoria).

Club Coach: Season Review

Lloyd Mash

On the back of three teams (First, Second and Third XI’s) making the finals in 2012-13, this Season was one of high hopes. With

no notable departures or arrivals we were looking for continued improvement across the whole playing group.

One of our common problems in recent seasons was to have strong and experienced leaders across all grades. Peter Dickson,

Darren Motschall, John Hayes and Mark Sheedy fulfilled these positions adequately. From here, the young playing group

(which we currently have) was able to gain much needed feedback and advice on how to play cricket at this level.

Premier cricket can be challenging and this year was no exception. We play so much white ball cricket prior to Christmas it was

hard for players to get what they actually needed to improve their games by the weekend’s game. Although training allows you

so much time to improve, it is on match day where you can showcase your skills under pressure. The club as a whole needs

more work in shorter version cricket if we are to become a power house in the competition.

One thing over my journey as coach is that some players listen and some do not. At this level, basic fundamentals are crucial

whilst constant reinforcement will help gain success as a club, team and individual. The pleasing aspect of coaching is seeing

improvement from players. Players such as Ejaaz Alavi, Jacques Augustin, Liam Banthorpe, Jack Rudd, Josh White, Noah

Korkolis, Chris Moore and Tim Baker, all showed that if you train hard enough, listen and learn, you could become a great of

the club.

From individuals to teams there is no greater feeling than winning a premiership. Having tasted it as a player and now as a

coach in the Second XI, it’s addictive. You just want more of it. The last time we won a premiership in the Second XI, the

following year the First XI made it to the Semi’s with multiple players coming in from that team. I know there are players whom

played in this premiership who will have a major impact in this coming season and for future years to come. Huge

congratulations to all players who played throughout the year in the Second XI and to the final 12 members who now share a

special bond with each other.

I would to acknowledge and congratulate the following:

Glenn Maxwell for all his success in season 2013/14

Darren Motschall as Second XI Premiership Captain

Ejazz Alavi & Jack Rudd for Victorian U19’s Selection

Liam Banthorpe & Anthony Brolic for Victorian U17’s Selection

All Parents and Supporters

Volunteers – Sam Goodchap (Team Manager), Roger Page, Les Allan (Scorers), Graeme and Elva Woolard (Afternoon

This year will be remembered by the on field success of the Second XI. Off field however, we were all saddened by the passing

of a legend “Don Patrick”. So close to many people within the sporting community, it was a sad learning of Don’s passing. We

were all able to celebrate the life of Don and his multiple achievements. When I first walked into the doors at FDCC I was greet-

ed by the Coach and a very close second, Don! We will all miss him very much and his legacy will live on within the confines of

Schramms Reserve.

Finally I would like to thank my family for all their support over my career at the club and I wish everyone all the successes in

the future.

Harvey Watts Academy: Season Review

John Hayes

The Harvey-Watts Academy ran well during the lead up to the season with the first session, the information night, being held in

early July with good attendance from prospective players and their parents. The initial trial session was held at Maddocks

Sports in Blackburn on the 21st July and from this trial, 20 players aged between 13 and 18 years old were selected to be part of

the Academy Program.

2013-14 was a unique year for the Academy with the introduction of female players to the program through a partnership with

Box Hill Cricket Club. This initiative was successful, however, all three girls were only able to attend a handful of sessions due to

injury and illness.

The Academy Program ran for seven weeks with participants working through various game scenarios, with mental and skill

development an important part of their training program. During these training sessions numerous existing Fitzroy Doncaster

players assisted the Academy participants and joined in with training as mentors, along with having guest coaches such as

Lloyd Mash, Peter Dickson and Steven Duckworth.

The Academy program then moved into a ‘non training’ phase due to players club commitments and the Cricket Victoria

Pathway trials commencing. The Pathway process and State trials take priority over all Premier cricket club player development

work as the selection processes for each of the regions is quite intense and junior players need to juggle their school, family

and club cricket commitments.

We recommenced our program in February 2014 after the State Championships.

The following members of our Academy and Senior Squads were selected to play for the following teams in the State

Championships along with some club representation as coaches:

Inner East Emus - u18's Inner East Emus - u16s Inner East Emus - u14s

Josh White (senior listed) Seamus Bolton (academy listed) Nat Vardi (FDCC) as Coach

As you can see the club has a number of representatives (20 players and 3 coaches) across 4 regions which is a healthy sign for

the future and a credit to those involved in and around the club and who are involved in talent ID. This season Luke Joyce was

awarded the Development Player of the Year award on the back of a good season, an outstanding game in the Forth XI final

against Hawthorn Monash University and by showing he has plenty of talent, a real player for the future!

It is my belief that the club should continue to improve and develop in this area with the injection of some new coaches and

coaching philosophies, however list management of young players will become a key part of success in the future.

I wish to congratulate the Second XI on their Premiership, especially Darren Motschall for the way he led his young team; a

terrific effort.

Thank you to outgoing coach Lloyd Mash, a great inspiration and friend to us all.

Given I have resigned from my position as the Academy Coach and also from my role as Third XI captain, and retired as a play-

er, I would like to also thank all involved at the Fitzroy Doncaster Cricket Club, players, committee members, supporters and

parents for welcoming and providing me with the opportunity to be part of a truly great club.

1st XI: Season Review

Peter Dickson

The 2013/14 season was an indifferent year which had many highs and lows. Unfortunately this is a common theme for

the First XI where our best cricket can be very good but the gap between our best our worst is far too great.

With fantastic outright results against Northcote and Greenvale it put us in a strong position to have an assault on the

top eight. Unfortunately we lost a crucial game against Carlton which left us having to rely on results to go our way in the

final round. The last game of the year was a clear highlight for myself as captain, seeing the team put in a great all round

team performance and comprehensively beating Melbourne. Unfortunately results did not go our way and we were left

in ninth position narrowly missing the eight.

After a slow start to the year we were chasing our tails and had to fight extremely hard to get ourselves back into a posi-

tion to be able to play finals. This is something we managed to turn around and showed some real character throughout

the group during this period.

Jacques Augustin fought his way back into the team and had a real impact in the later part of the season; he also scored a

fine 100 against Prahran. Nat Vardi scoring his first 50 against strong opposition in Melbourne in tough circumstances and

Liam Banthorpe and Ejaaz Alaavi showing their class and consistency as young players was also a real standout. The two

key performers for the season were Tim Sheehan and Steven Duckworth who lead from the front with bat and ball

respectively. Both these players showed great skill and experience throughout the year and should be the bench mark for

young players.

I would like to congratulate the second eleven for the premiership win, this is a great building block for next season. So

many young players have now put their name forward and will start challenging for spots above. We have a great mix of

youth and experience at the club and in my mind have the skill and talent to achieve something similar in the first eleven.

To all the coaches and captains of the other grades, I would like to say thank you for your support and also well done on a

great year personally. To Lloyd Mash who has retired, I would like to make mention of what a great mentor he has been

for not just myself, but many people at the club over a long period. Hopefully we see Lloyd back at the Lions in years to

come.

Last but not least, to my mentor and great friend Don Patrick who passed away during the season, we will miss you very

much and I hope we can show you some premiership success again in the next few years.

Best Clubman: Doug Rumble Memorial Trophy

Doug Rumble was a wicketkeeper who played 187 games for Fitzroy and University. He was born in 1955 and played his first

game in 1970 at the age of 15, keeping to the likes of Eddie Illingworth and ‘Froggy’ Thompson, the most feared opening

bowling combination in district cricket. He made 1658 runs, took 286 catches and 25 stumping's throughout his career. After

two seasons at University, Doug returned to Fitzroy to become captain coach for the club for two years in the early 1980s.

Doug was tragically killed in a skiing accident in 1986, just before the commencement of the first season of the amalgamated

Fitzroy Doncaster Cricket Club. He left behind his wife Glenda and two young children, Jessica and Thomas. Fitzroy Doncaster

lost a great clubman. Such was the respect of both Fitzroy and University had for Doug, the clubs now play for the ‘Doug

Rumble Cup’ each time they meet. Doug earned this respect not only for the way he went about his cricket, but for the

qualities he possessed as a person. On the field, you knew that if the side was in trouble, he would be the one fighting back in

the lower order. Off the field, he was a great clubman, who was only too keen to help others. He was respected by both his

teammates and opposition alike, and was probably one of the most popular players in the game.

This trophy is not for the best wicketkeeper, it is for the player who has best demonstrated those qualities that Doug possessed

as a player, a clubman, a teammate and a friend. It is a very important trophy for the club to honour Doug’s memory, his

contribution, and to encourage those qualities in the current generation of players.

Vale

Don Patrick

Les Allan

24.02.1937—08.12.13

The 'Jag', a life member of the club and stalwart of Schramms Reserve, he

was the much loved team manager of our 1st XI for many years.

In the early 1980s, Don was heavily involved in the amalgamation of the

Fitzroy Cricket Club and Doncaster Cricket Club. It has been noted, that

although the merger was tough, he was the fabric that held it together

and helped build a team worthy of a premiership.

"Make sure you give 100%, because if you don't give 100%, you're

wasting the greatest gift, and that's life."

We will miss him dearly, but will never forget him.

21.07.1937— 19.04.2014

Les joined Fitzroy Doncaster in 2006 and was integral to our successful

Second XI over his eight years with the club. His attention to detail was

second to none, and all players enjoyed his honesty and company during

this time.

Right up until the time of his death he was still completing scorecards for

our award winners – which are treasured by all who received them.

Saturday mornings before a game will never be the same for the Second

XI, but his impact on the team and club will not be forgotten.

Both Don and Les have left a significant mark on Fitzroy Doncaster Cricket Club and those associated with the club. Volunteers

are the lifeblood of a club; without them it is very difficult to run. We thank them both for the service they provided and we

will remember them forever—may they rest in peace.

Congratulations

Roger Page: 600 1st XI Matches

Round 6 saw Fitzroy Doncaster's

scorer, Roger Page, reach his 600th

game.

Roger's very long association with

the Club commenced back in Round

1 October 1976, when Fitzroy

played Richmond at the Punt Rd

Oval.

Bartercard Victorian Premier Cricket 2nd XI Premiers

Captain Darren Motschall won the toss and elected to bowl on a flat Albert Ground wicket against the Damien Bulakowski led

Dandenong outfit. Having defeated both the 1st placed Carlton and 3rd placed Monash in the preceding finals, the Lions faced

another tough challenge against the 2nd placed Panthers.

Having lost to them in their Round 3 ‘One Day’ encounter

earlier in the season, the Lions were determined to put that

result behind them as they fought for the ultimate bragging

rights.

Despite some early flair from both Dandenong openers,

Chris Moore (2-36) made the initial impact removing

Mathew Darvell (7) after he edged to 2nd slip where Steve

Villani gratefully accepted the catch. The dangerous Peter

Sweeney raced to 20 before Moore again found him

knicking to Villani in 2nd slip. With the game well and truly

in the balance at 2-58, Motschall (3-16) and Kamasen

Nayager (4-17) combined to decimate the Dandenong middle order to leave them reeling at 8-66 just after lunch. Bulakowski

(9*) and James Sheerin (5) provided a rear-guard action to frustrate the Lions bowlers until Josh White returned to clean up

Sheerin. Dandenong were finally dismissed for just 89 inside 47 overs.

The Lions got off to a horror start losing Nat Vardi (1) and Jacques Augustin (0) to Brett Fairbanks (3-39) in consecutive balls to

leave the challengers at 2-12 in the fourth over. Things were compounded when Steve Villani (5) then chipped to mid-wicket to

swing the game back in favour of the Panthers. Jack Rudd (23) joined opener Jack Blyth (33) to steady the ship and take the

score to 45 before the latter chipped a return catch to Bulakowski (2-42). Shane Findlay (14) made a quick contribution before

being castled and bringing Motschall (62) to the crease. The skipper was resolute with the bat and ensure the Lions scrapped a

first innings lead ten overs out from stumps on day one. Bright, coming in from three consecutive ducks remained on naught

overnight, but quickly turned things around on day two as he kept the Dandenong bowlers at bay and forced the score to 187.

In search of quick runs, the Panthers stumbled early losing Darvell (1) in the first over, and Peter Sweeney (0) shortly after to

Chris Moore (3-19). Matthew Sweeney (20) and Marcus Glenister (20) provided plenty of spark in their 2nd innings, but their

demise within 8 overs to 5-46 put the game beyond reach before the game was called off, sparking celebrations from the

elated Lions.
