Western Australia Cricket Association20-Sep-2002WA Cricket Association members will tonight be invited to award Life Membership to two of the state’s finest servants, at the Association’s Annual General Meeting.Former Test and state cricketer and reigning Australian Cricket Board director Mr Wally Edwards and current Association Vice-President Mr Bill Bryant have diligently served the game for more than 40 years.Mr Edwards said today that being awarded WACA Life Membership was the finest achievement of a career that included playing three Ashes Tests in 1974."It is recognition of efforts through all facets of our sport over a very long period of time," said Mr Edwards."It’s a great honour, of which I’m sure anyone would be extremely proud."Mr Edwards represented Western Australia 22 times and played district cricket over three decades at three clubs. He commenced his career as a 15-year-old at Midland-Guildford in the late 1960s before he transferred to University. He concluded an illustrious club career with North Perth, leading the club to a premiership in 1977-78.Mr Edwards has been a WACA Executive Committee member since 1987. He is currently chairman on the important International and Interstate committee.He has actively served on four WACA club committees, through his playing days with Midland-Guildford, University and North Perth and is currently actively involved with Subiaco-Floreat where his son Phillip is an emerging young player.Mr Bryant was first elected to the Executive as Members’ Representative 21 years ago. He has served as Association Vice-President since 1995.He played club cricket with University and Mt Lawley and extends a long family history of outstanding service to cricket. He is a past Chairman of the Ground and Finance sub-committee and Chairman of the Ground Development sub-committee.Mr Bryant has also served as Chairman of the WACA Appeal Board and Chairman of the WACA Membership sub-committee.Mr Bryant’s father Richard was awarded Life Membership in 1956. His uncle Frank had the honour bestowed upon him in 1972, capping distinguished playing and administrational careers with the Association."This is a great honour for me to follow in my father and uncle’s footsteps. It is extremely gratifying to be involved with such a wonderful organisation as the WACA," Mr Bryant said."To be involved with cricket over the last 20 years, when we have seen such enormous development within our ground and such a powerful continuance of a production line of top class players to the Test team is extremely rewarding."Another of Mr Bryant’s uncles, also Mr Bill Bryant, played first-class cricket for Western Australia as well.The WACA Player’s Dining Room is named "The Bryant Room" in recognition of such powerful service from the family.

Derby County have been dealt a major blow in their bid to keep Lee Buchanan at Pride Park this summer.

What’s the talk?

That’s according to a claim made by Alan Nixon, with The Sun journalist revealing in a post on Twitter that Nottingham Forest have made a fresh bid for the Derby County left-back, although Wayne Rooney’s side are thought to have rejected the proposal.

It was reported by The Athletic earlier this week that the 20-year-old is top of Chirs Hughton’s list of transfer targets this summer, with the Reds having already seen one offer knocked back for the defender by their rivals.

However, it is not only Forest thought to be interested in a move for the Rams youngster, with Arsenal and Celtic both reported to be keeping a close eye on the situation of the England U21 international.

Although, it would very much appear as if Hughton’s side are leading the race Buchanan, with Nixon stating: “Forest. New and improved bid for Lee Buchanan. Derby said no. Latest package definitely better, but not yet enough.”

Morris must not sell

While Nixon does not mention the amount of money Forest have offered for Buchanan, it would be naive to think that Mel Morris is not considering the idea of cashing in on the left-back this summer.

Indeed, the Rams are in the midst of what could well be the club’s biggest financial crisis in their history, while the £2.25m-rated defender is just about to enter the final year of his current contract at Pride Park.

However, despite these facts, Morris must ensure that he resists all temptation to sanction the sale of the 20-year-old this summer, not only as the youngster will have a major role to play in Wayne Rooney’s side next season – with the 35-year-old desperately lacking depth all over the pitch – but also because selling one of the club’s most promising talents to their fiercest of rivals would be seen as an unforgivable act by the Derby faithful.

As such, while the argument could be made that, should Arsenal or Celtic come in with an offer that the club’s owner simply cannot refuse, Buchanan’s departure could actually help sustain the club in the long term, if it is Forest who have an offer accepted for the Englishman this summer – no matter how good it may be for the club’s financial health – Morris will have made a grave error, and one that would quite rightly leave their fans fuming.

Many Everton fans have been left fuming as a transfer update emerged on James Rodriguez.

Speaking on El Chiringuito TV, sports journalist Edu Aguirre has claimed that Rafa Benitez has told the Colombia international that he ‘doesn’t count on him’, and added that Rodriguez ‘wants to play’ and is ‘looking for a away out’.

The former Real Madrid star was such a key player for the Merseyside club in the 2020/21 term, scoring six goals and making a further nine assists in 26 games in total over all competitions (Transfermarkt).

His creativity in the final third of the pitch may be vital for their hopes of achieving European qualification next season, but it seems as if the 30-year-old may be forced out of the Toffees after just one campaign.

Thus, it is not a surprise at all to see so many Blues supporters fuming after hearing the news.

According to Italian newspaper La Repubblica, via Calciomercato, Tottenham Hotspur have already made their first offer to sign Sampdoria sensation Mikkel Damsgaard.

The Lowdown: Spurs eyeing Damsgaard…

As per The Evening Standard, managing director Fabio Paratici now has his eyes firmly on strengthening the creative positions in Tottenham’s team after sealing Cristian Romero from Atalanta.

Damsgaard is one of the targets on Spurs’ agenda alongside former academy player Noni Madueke, according to that report, with La Repubblica (via Calciomercato) now bringing a further development.

The Latest: Spurs have already made Damsgaard offer…

As per the newspaper from Italy, Tottenham have actually already made their first offer to sign the 21-year-old rising star this summer.

[web_stories_embed url=”https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/web-stories/tottenham-latest-gossip/” title=”Tottenham latest gossip!” poster=”” width=”360″ height=”600″ align=”none”]

They claim the bid is ‘higher than €20 million (£17.04 million)’ but nowhere near Sampdoria’s €40m (£34.02m) asking price, which club president Massimo Ferrero is demanding for his services.

Spurs’ first offer looks unlikely to be accepted as a result but a ‘good starting point’ for negotiations could be a figure in and around the €30 million (£25.5m) mark.

The Verdict: Perfect for Spurs…

Signing Damsgaard, in our opinion, would be the cherry on top of an already impressive window so far for Tottenham.

Paratici has undergone an extensive Lilywhites rebuild with the departures of Toby Alderweireld, Joe Hart, Erik Lamela, Juan Foyth, Danny Rose and Paulo Gazzaniga – shifting deadwood and making space for marquee arrivals.

The Lilywhites have already secured most of their main targets but adding Damsgaard into the mix would really be a masterstroke by Tottenham’s new managing director.

He is arguably one of the most exciting youngsters in world football with there already being a ‘gigantic buzz’ around him in Denmark, according to his former youth coach Kasper Kurland (inews.co.uk).

The starlet’s sensational free-kick against England in their Euro 2020 semi-final at Wembley could only be a glimpse into his ability, especially considering he has drawn comparisons with former Spurs favourite Christian Eriksen.

Eliminado no Campeonato Gaúcho, o Grêmio não joga neste fim de semana e, por isso, reservou a manhã deste sábado para aprimorar-se para o jogo contra o Deportes Iquique, no Chile, na próxima quarta-feira, pela quinta rodada da Libertadores. A novidade da partida que vale a classificação gremista pode ser o atacante Fernandinho.

Em fase final de recuperação de uma lesão, o atleta de 31 anos voltou a participar de uma atividade no CT Luz Carvalho após dez dias treinando separadamente. No penúltimo treino antes antes da viagem para o Chile, Renato Portaluppi promoveu um jogo-treino para os reservas com a equipe sub-20.

O atacante fez um dos três gols da vitória por 3 a 1. Lincoln e Everton também balançaram as redes. Já os titulares da partida do meio de semana fizeram um leve treino regenerativo.

Assim, Fernandinho pode ser mais uma opção para substituir Bolanõs, que deixou o jogo com os paraguaios com uma distensão e ficará fora por três semanas. No entanto, o comandante deve mantê-lo no banco, com Barrios no ataque e Luan jogando recuado.

O Grêmio deve ir a campo com Marcelo Grohe; Léo Moura, Geromel, Kannemann e Marcelo Oliveira; Jaílson, Arthur, Ramiro e Luan; Pedro Rocha e Barrios.

A high-scoring thriller which produced 412 runs finally went the way of Rajasthan Royals, as they edged Chennai Super Kings to record their tenth win of the IPL and further consolidate their position at the top of the table

A high-scoring thriller which produced 412 runs finally went the way of Rajasthan Royals, as they edged Chennai Super Kings to record their tenth win of the IPL and further consolidate their position at the top of the table. After Graeme Smith had powered Rajasthan to 211, Chennai put up a spirited run-chase, thanks largely to Albie Morkel’s 40-ball 71. In the end, though, his effort wasn’t enough, which means Chennai still have work to do to make it to the last four.Smith’s 51-ball 91, and his stunning 127-run opening-wicket stand with Swapnil Asnodkar, put Rajasthan firmly in control at the halfway stage, but Chennai mounted a remarkable reply, with three of their top four making significant contributions. Morkel, Parthiv Patel and Suresh Raina ensured they kept up with the asking rate throughout – 30 were needed off the last 15 balls, when Rajasthan tightened up their act with accurate bowling and spirited fielding, with Mohammad Kaif putting in an outstanding performance around the long-on and long-off boundaries.Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who came in at the fall of Parthiv’s wicket, chipped to long-off from Sohail Tanvir in the 18th, and after S Badrinath fell in the next over, Chennai were left with 15 from the last over. With Morkel still around, Chennai had a chance, but Tanvir was superb, pitching it full, on the stumps, and giving away just four runs. Eleven were needed off the last two, and when Morkel flicked one straight to short fine leg, Chennai had fallen short again. Unlike their previous run-chase, though, when they made a hash of a target of 127, there was no shame in losing this one.A target of 212 was a stiff one, but Chennai’s start suggested they were hardly intimidated. After Stephen Fleming’s early run-out, Raina and Parthiv carted the bowlers all around the MA Chidambaram Stadium in a 70-run stand that came off just 6.5 overs. Raina has struggled over the last few matches, but here he was unstoppable, driving and cutting fluently through the off side, and pulling Munaf Patel when he dropped it fractionally short.When Raina fell, miscuing Warne to midwicket, it didn’t hamper the run-chase at all, for out walked Morkel. While most batsmen preferred to move to leg and make room, Morkel’s chosen method was to stay still at the crease, and then hit straight through the line over long-on and long-off. To anything drifting on leg stump, he used the short-arm pull or the slog-sweep to excellent effect. A couple of huge sixes off Yusuf Pathan and Munaf got him on his way, and Warne wasn’t spared either, as a slog-sweep easily cleared midwicket.Parthiv wasn’t as explosive, but he played his part well, interspersing well-timed hits to the boundary – including a superb straight six off Warne – with clever nudges on both sides of the stumps to give the strike back to the more powerful strikers. He was clearly running out of steam, though, and his dismissal brought out Dhoni, who could have been the ideal man for the situation. As it turned out, though, Rajasthan had enough runs to the board to edge this one.The match produced 39 fours and 18 sixes, and that was largely due to a perfect batting strip: the pace was even, allowing batsmen to hit through the line, while there was no seam or swing movement for the bowlers. Add a super-quick outfield and sweltering heat to the equation, and there was little to cheer for the fielding team.With their team already in the semi-finals, Warne experimented with team strategy, choosing to bat first, and the move paid off immediately: the third ball, from Makhaya Ntini, was a no-ball, the free hit was promptly deposited over long-on by Asnodkar for six, and that signalled the start of the deluge. Both batsmen hit cleanly through the line of the ball, freeing their arms to crash boundaries through the off side or pull over midwicket. Manpreet Gony suffered early, as Asnodkar drove and pulled him for boundaries, and Smith soon joined in the fun, cutting and flicking Albie Morkel for fours. To make matters worse for Chennai, the hard pitch favoured the batsmen in more ways than one: when Smith played one off Ntini hard into the turf, it bounced so high over the fielder at point that Ntini could only smile in resignation.The first six overs produced nine fours and two sixes, and with the total reading 67, Rajasthan were on their way. Muttiah Muralitharan was brought into the attack in the seventh, but he couldn’t stop the bleeding either, as Smith lofted him over wide mid-on, and then slog-swept a mighty six. L Balaji was even more profligate, with Smith and Asnodkar creaming 20 in his second over.Of the first 12 overs, ten produced ten or more runs, as Rajasthan put together their third century stand for the first wicket. Asnodkar and Smith fell in quick succession, but the two wickets didn’t slow the run-fest, as Akmal quickly got into his stride, coming down the pitch and carting the third ball he faced into the long-on stands. His 26-ball half-century lifted Rajasthan to 211, and on a flat pitch, they needed all those runs to come out on top.
