🐊🔥 GIBBS AIR & REFRIGERATION CROCS – REDEMPTION TIME 🔥🐊

Porters Mitre 10 Under 20 T20 Smash | Australia Day Long Weekend

After finishing Runner-Up in 2024/25, the Gibbs Air & Refrigeration Crocs return hungry, driven and determined to go one step further this Australia Day long weekend. This is a side built for impact — blending proven match-winners with exciting young talent ready to explode onto the big stage. The team has a mix of local players and welcome players from Bowen, Boyne Island and Proserpine.

🔁 Key Retainees

The Crocs locked in a powerful core:

• Caleb Moss

• Etienne Pretorius

• Nate Jackson

⭐ Strike Weapon – Etienne Pretorius

The Porters Mitre 10 U19 T100 Smash Player of the Tournament, Etienne is a genuine game-changer. A devastating striker with the bat and a dangerous option with the ball, he remains one of the most exciting all-round threats in the competition.

🔥 First Pick – Marcus Sammut

With their first selection, the Crocs landed Walkerston young gun Marcus Sammut — and opposition teams have been put on notice. Marcus piled on 436 runs in the DBCT 2nd Grade Cup during the first half of the Mackay Cricket season. A hard-hitting batter who can take a game away in a heartbeat when he finds his zone.

🧠 Coach – Luke Jackson

The Crocs are extremely fortunate to be led by Luke Jackson, an Australian Over 40s World Cup winner, Walkerston CC stalwart and long-time contributor to the Mackay Whitsunday junior coaching pathway. His experience, leadership and cricket IQ will be invaluable across the tournament.
