That’s what Court House captain Farran Lamb believes his players will have to produce if they are to beat Albion in this weekend’s Gunnedah District Cricket Association first grade two-day final.

“It will be a tough slog, they're good all around the park,” Lamb said of Albion.

“Their opening bowlers Jenko [Brad Jenkinson] and Luke Ryan are good. They keep it really tight.

“With the bat, Andy’s probably the key but they’ve got a good middle and lower order too.

“We have to be switched on all over the park and put in a complete performance to win.”

Albion aren’t taking anything for granted either.

Albion’s James Mack said it was all or nothing come the weekend.

“They’re good week in week out,” Mack said of Court House.

“Grand finals are a different kettle of fish and we can’t rely too much on what happened during the year.”

Court House will be without all-rounder Anthony Daniels after Brad Gander confirmed he would miss the final with a knee injury.

However, Ben Irwin was a chance to play after picking up a hamstring injury in last week’s semi-final against Kookaburras.

“Tony is definitely out but Ben's reasonably confident,” Gander said.

“We’re going to have to manage the injury pretty well – he’s a key player being one of our opening bowlers.”

Gander said Court House would need to tighten a few things up from the Kookaburras game.

“We’re pumped. We’re ready to go. Hopefully we can score a few more runs and tidy up our fielding from last week,” he said.

This weekend will mark the seventh grand final in a row Albion has competed in.

It was something Mack said the side was proud of.

“Definitely, and I’ve said it before. It hasn’t been the same side either,” Mack said.

“There’s maybe four or five that were playing in that very first one, guys have come and gone, but we found a way to make it.”

Mack said the feeling around the group was good heading into the final.

“We’re excited, keen. There’s a few guys playing their first first grade grand final for Albion,” Mack said.

While Court House won’t be at full strength, Mack said Albion had a full roster to choose from.

“Andy’s had to make a couple of decisions on who will and won’t play but we’re as strong as we’ve been all year,” Mack said.

This weekend’s final will be the third in a row that’s seen Albion and Court House face off with each side having a win each.
