What took you so long Steve?

This week Steve Webley plays his 150th senior game for CATS - 33 years after making his A Grade debut against Traralgon West at Stoddart on the 16th October 1993. His two seasons yielded 12 runs/14 wickets and 329 runs/20 wickets before the great man went on a cricketing tour of other clubs before returning back home to the Cattery 19 years later.

Did we celebrate his return like the Gospel story of the Prodigal Son? No, we bloody well licked our lips together because in those 19 missing years he found love and returned to the club with Rita, and we know what that means ….. Rita’s Sausage Rolls!

Cam’s Stats chart for Steve, just like Marty’s, again indicates what an unique player he has been over the 14 playing seasons he has played. By batting order, Steve has been so prolific as an opening bat while his height and control make his once quick bowling so difficult to handle. Throw in his massive, ever reliable big paws at gully - you have a captain’s dream player.

But for us the highlight isn’t his stats chart, and not even Rita’s Sausage Rolls. Steve’s generosity of spirit just oozes from every limb of the big man, and more recently his greatest contribution to the club has been the way that he has thrown his time, energy and intellect into curating the Cattery. John Black Oval is always presented to such a high standard when Steve has his fingerprints on it and we cannot thank him enough for the countless hours of time, and the many hours of analysis and thought that go into the management of the wickets.

As we prepare this week’s matches, it comes as no surprise that the two milestone men are down at the club rolling, owing, and curating the ground.

So raise your glass, tap Webs on the back to thank him for everything he does for us, and if you have time sit and enjoy a conversation with one of the great conversationalists at the club.

Congrats Webs, wishing you a terrific match. Fingers crossed you hit up run number 4000 in Game 150.

Marty Moves to 250 Games!

This weekend we get to celebrate one of the club’s greatest gentlemen, Marty Anthofer. We congratulate Marty on not only this milestone but we also thank him for what he has done for the club and many of us individually. The ultimate team mate, and for many seasons, a fair and encouraging captain, Marty has always taken much more joy from the achievements of his mates than in his remarkably consistent performances.

The newly created statistical profiles created in the off-season by Cam McDonald are just amazing, so it is an absolute pleasure to be able to share this resource so early in the season as we spotlight Marty. A quick scan of Marty’s profile clearly shows his consistent performances of the years, a deeper look reveals just what an important player he has been to us on the field.

Debuting for the club, as Player #275, on the 9th February 2008 against Churchill Marty showed us he had a bit of talent with the ball snaring 3/17 against Churchill in the C’s at Gaskin #2 though only scoring a modest 9 would have frustrated him. Marty didn’t last long in the C’s, in fact he has only played a further three games in C Grade before adding 210 in his customary B Grade and 35 in the A’s, including game 249 last week.

The stats profile created by our club historian tells us Marty has almost clicked over 4000 club runs and almost taken 150 scalps - We would love to see a solid knock in game 250 of 64+ runs ….. no pressure mate!

Across twenty seasons we have seen Marty take out many individual batting and bowling awards at both club and association level, but of course the career highlight would be the B Grade Premiership won alongside so many of his long time team mates in 2023/24.

We offer our heartfelt thanks for all you continue to do for us Marty, both on and off the field. We love playing alongside you and wish you all the best for a terrific game this week

May your pockets be always full of jellybeans!

Best of luck to all three sides! Be sure to get back to club to join us for the first ever Caktober fest!!

Go Cats!! 🐈🐈
