Has Jack Maddocks similarly succumbed to that curse, or he is doing his best not to tempt fate with the Jinx Fairies by staying well clear of that position.
Have just heard Maddocks was playing 1st Grade cricket on Saturday.

The Brumbies u20s had a hit out against Gungahlin Eagles. They got up 5 tries to 4. I believe they are playing the rebels in a trial at Albury on the weekend. This will be a better measure of form than the game V Tasmania for the Vics.
Another of the flyhalf's in this age group, Dave Smerdon (NSW Schools 2014) also withdrew from the initial squad selected due to a planned off season shoulder reconstruction.
Is this going to be the thread for the Super 20s? Ive been working with the Force team for this comp, some real talents in there.
I understand that Dave Smerdon has moved from Gordon to Warringah to join some ex Barker College mates there including Tyson Davis and Harry Jones. I think that he plans to play grade in 2016. Not sure when he will resume playing but I did hear that he has been at pre-season trainings.Hope his shoulder mends in time for this year. Will he be having a run with the Highlanders colts or grade this year?
Thor played last weekend for the QLD u 20 against West Prem's and ran riot with the defense.Taniela Tupou will be available for QLD U20's, Reds FB account alluded that the matches would be streamed.
Anyone got any info on the Brumbies U20s v Rebels U20s game? Did it happen?
Sure did mate. Rebels won out in the end.
I wasn't there, but my sources tell me it was a quality game with the Brumbies having the upper hand in the set piece. Scrums were apparently a solid attacking weapon for the Brumbs.
Rebels counter attack and backline proved the difference, although they did pick up a couple of injuries to some of their guys. It's great for these games to be brought out to the regional centres.
Sorry I don't have any mail on individual performances, I'll be there for the Rebels v Uni hitout this weekend and will update the Rebels thread on how I see that game.
Can't say I've seen or heard Clifton Setu being in or around the Qld u20's. Anyone know if he has moved on?QLD - Taniela Tupou, Josh Webb, Nick Jeffries, Dylan Riley, Clifton Setu will all go close.
