Turf Wicket Report on Cobborac Turf at Wirringa
Gardener Goodman reports to the council that turf at Wirringa was prepared for play on 20 December 1930 with matches on 24 December and 7 February. The wicket showed minimal wear after 40 overs, weather interrupted later play, and the soil absorbed water well after rolling. He recommends stopping use of horse roller for topdressing and continues six weeks of testing to ensure suitability for future matches.
