Friends
Way back in 1989, James Makin, Craig Hutchinson & Michael Banner played together in C1 Grade.
Fast forward 25 years and the boys are now joined by the next generation – Todd & Jack Hutchinson + Oliver Makin.
How about this for a pedigree. James has scored 6,531 runs, taken 371 wickets, is our most successful A1 Captain (4 Premierships) and is our most capped Grand Final participant (20 Grand Final for 12 wins). Michael Banner has scored 6,805 runs, taken 39 wickets and played in 10 Grand Finals (7 wins) and Hutchy has scored 2,358 runs & taken 237 wickets. So.....a combined 15,694 runs, 647 wickets and played in 30 Grand Finals. If only we knew then what we know now
