ON THIS DAY - 19th November
Armidale Waratahs (The Tahs) | November 19, 2025
In 1960, D BUCKNELL (#133) in A grade and KEITH McINTYRE (#129) in B grade took three catches in an innings and J BOUNDY (#118) did the hat trick as A-Res grade won outright by an innings against Teachers College.

In 1961, GEOFF MARSHALL (#156) took 9-64 for Waratahs against Easts in the Sunday comp. At that stage, Marshall was a young teen and it was noted in the Armidale Express that he bowled through the whole of Easts innings. The Sunday comp was a composite of all grades, played all day on a Sunday.

In 1966, TOM COOKE (#197) completed a disappointing match for A grade with grand figures of 11-51. Churches, with 7 former or future Waratahs players, routed Waratahs for just 52, with Don Foster and Brian Joice taking five wickets each.

In 1983, JACK TRESTRAIL (#303) and ANDREW DAVIS (#354) combined for a 2nd grade record partnership of 142 for the 5th wicket v TAS. Tressy went on to 111 but Waratahs 8-273 wasn't enough, as TAS chased them down despite a Victor Crew pfeiffer.

In 1988, that part time Irishman, MICHAEL MULDOON (#192) made his only Waratahs century, 135 unbeaten, as Waratahs ran up three hundred against an undermanned YCW. Allan Brettell (#509) took 5-33 in YCW's paltry first innings but it was Muldoon who took half of the wickets in the second as YCW's 8 players had a slog fest but didn't avoid the outright defeat.
