Farewell Dinner for Richard and Holly Planned Thursday November 16


Richard and Holly are off to Adelaide next month.

Whenever I go to the Grove to buy a lasagne I always seem to bump into Richard and Holly.

Sadly, the last time I bumped into them Richard asked for the Warriors to give him a clearance to play baseball in Adelaide.

It seems that his all round baseball skills have been noticed interstate; negotiations have been completed and the transfer signed for an undisclosed sum.

As a player Richard was always available, never complained, even when put out in the boon docks. He's got a great swing that is the envy of many players in the club. Pity the pitchers had so much trouble hitting the centre of it.

I'd like to thank you both for the pleasure of your company this season. You have supported every event we held this season and we really apreciate it.

Therefore, on Thursday Novemeber 16 at 6pm I would like to ask you both to come along to the Sporties where the Warriors will be able to have a $6 steak or schnitzel, a bit of a drink, and for us all to wish you all the best in person. All Warriors are invited.

Thanks Richard, thanks Holly; "Played hard, done good!!!" May you catch all the flys hit your way.

There is no truth in the rumour that a perpetual "Richard 'Babe' Ruth" award will be created for the most K's during the season. Or is there?

Anybody wishing to leave a message for them can post a comment.

Adelaide... I guess flying down to Adelaide was option two. The way babe was swinging this year, option one was to go there in order to retrieve one of the balls he wanted to hit that far... wooosh....
Come on Richard - whats wrong with commuting to play for us?
