ON THIS DAY - 11th February
In 1984, Graham Frost (#333) was at his elegant best, scoring a century for 1st v YCW after a whirlwind opening partnership with Roger Sattler (#378) of 99, who departed soon after for a wedding. He then ran out Tim Muldoon (#296) for a duck and watched David Laurence (#455) go first ball soon after, before settling things down and steering Waratahs to the victory.

In 2nds, after Mark Huggins had taken a 6fa off a marathon spell on the first day, GRAHAM JOHNSON (#207) made St Peters suffer on the second, making half of Waratahs score and being there until just before the end in a 7 run victory.
