Pic 10 – January 2021 – “Bathurst Boys”
St George would like to say a big thank you to the Iconic Australian Town of Bathurst.
Firstly for Brian Booth and others who have graced the playing surface of Hurstville Oval for St George DCC.
Last Saturday Nick Shurmer (right) in making his 1st Grade debut became St George 1st Grade player No.456 and joined another Bathurst boy in the lineup, Trent Copeland.
More on Nick, he started with the Saints in the season of 2010 - 11 and over 11 loyal seasons worked his way from 5th grade to 1st Grade scoring 3775 runs along the way with a top score of 133. He has represented St George now in 155 grade games and he recently passed 4000 runs for the club including PG games. More so he volunteers his time back to the club as a member of the Communications team. Great Clubman. Thank you Bathurst.
Then there's the bloke on his left. Good keeper / bat but we've heard enough of that tale. Good day to chat about Trent Copeland. After all, it's 11 years to the day he made his Sheffield Shield debut and claimed a very cheeky 8-92. This feat will permanently remain as one of the great NSW debuts. 11 years on and he is now the 4th highest wicket taking Blue Bagger.
He arrived from Bathurst at the end of the 2003-04 season. Since then he has scored 4319 runs and taken 431 wickets and won countless premierships for the Saints.
What can we say, thank you once again Bathurst.
