Putting an end to the club’s 48-year first-grade premiership drought. 

“Any time you win any competition is a good feeling,” Duncan said.

“But they haven’t won a first grade premiership since 1971, so if we could win the big one at the end of the year, that’s the major goal for us.”

Currently sitting second on the ladder, Wollongong can reaffirm their place inside the top four with a victory over Keira on Saturday.

A day of batting awaits, with Keira reaching 9/239 last weekend. 

For Duncan, the chance to play in the finals and deliver Wollongong a premiership were among the top reasons he decided to leave the Shoalhaven and join the club prior to the start of the 2017-18 season.

"It started through Kieran Gray, we all came up together last year," he said.

"There's a great ground here and what we'd seen in the past it seemed like a good club with a good culture. 

"The main thing we wanted to do was challenge ourselves and come to a club that hadn't quite had the success that other clubs we've played at have and try to bring a bit of a winning culture with us."

Duncan and Lachlan made the move a season ago, with Lachlan moving to Sydney after just one match.

Duncan's success at the club last year made it an easy decision for Lachlan to return to Wollongong and youngest brother Cooper to join the pair this season. 

Lachlan, a Shoalhaven and South Coast premiership winner, recognises this Wollongong team is in uncharted territory as they chase a title, however he's confident that lack of finals experience will act as a motivating factor in March.

"There's a few older guys who haven't really had success at the club yet," Lachlan said. 

"Then there's quite a lot of younger guys just starting their grade career.

"A title is obviously on top of everyone's list and I definitely think we have a team good enough to win.

"Everyone knows it too.

A lot of the other teams know it too.

"We've just got to keep training and playing well and at the end of the year if that happens, we can come out on top."

While 24-year-old Duncan and 22-year-old Lachlan have played plenty of cricket together, this year marks the first time Cooper has joined his older brothers in a first-grade team.

The 18-year-old concedes it has been a challenging year adjusting to Illawarra cricket, but he’s confident he’s started to find his groove at the right time of the season. 

"It has been really challenging," Cooper said.

"I haven't succeeded myself, I've watched my brothers and the rest of the team succeed more than I have.

"But that's the beauty of playing team sport, you can miss out yourself and still bring home a trophy. It really challenges me to do better.

"Now I'm more comfortable, hopefully I can finish off the season scoring a few more runs."

Bomaderry brother Zac and Kealen Blattner are also now part of the Wollongong Cricket Club.
