If you haven’t seen the movie 1917, it is worth doing so, even if you wait till someone like Foxtel or Netflix show it on your TV. The movie is engrossing and extremely well shot with some of the most lifelike scenes ever shown of the First World War. Without giving the ending away, two…
Only 1st and 2nd Grades got a start on Saturday, but it’s hard to be really angry about the rain after such terribly dry conditions over the past few months. Nevertheless, two of our closest friends, Messrs Duckworth and Lewis had a busy time in both games. In 1st Grade, Wests’ aggressive batting before the…
Better late than never, the Gordon District Cricket Club would like to congratulate Nathan Doyle for his selection as the Bradman Scholar of 2019. The Bradman Scholarship is awarded to a cricketer who studies at university and involves financial assistance for 3 years, until the conclusion of their degree. Nathan has just finished his second…
A very disappointing first round back after Christmas, with only two wins out of five against UNSW. Seconds had a convincing bonus point win and Fifths chased well, but the other grades all let good opportunities slip away. The Colts played Easts on Sunday. Gordon bowled first in the top five grades but, in most…
Hi all After a disturbing period of having a compromised site, the GDCC website is back in action. You will note the last post was in late November, and we will start again hopefully with the wrap from this weekend’s matches against UNSW. Thanks to everyone for their patience.

Fortunately, the infrastructure wasn’t damaged except for sections of our new picket fence that will need replacing. The damage as shown by the…
First and Second Grades completed excellent wins. In Firsts, Charlie Stobo’s opening spell was fantastic and set the tone for a bonus point win, aided by a great opening stand by Axel Cahlin and Lachlan Barnsley. The highlight of the Seconds’ big win was a wonderful hat trick by Matt Wright, followed by a top…
Quite a solid round for the Stags. First Grade got back into the winners’ circle while 4ths, 5ths and Colts also got the points. 2nds needed a few more runs and 3rds couldn’t capitalise on a good start. The innings of the week came from Axel Cahlin, whose century in 1st Grade ensured their win.…
I have been dreading writing this tribute to Harry Evans after he announced his retirement last Saturday from playing with the Gordon District Cricket Club. Dreading it really only because I could no longer sit at Chatswood Oval and watch one of the best batsmen to ever play on our sacred ground. That�s is a…
