What a return to local cricket by Dermott Brereton.

In his first innings since being on I’m A Celebrity ... Get Me Out Of Here! the Hawthorn football legend blasted 104 not out in Heatherhill’s fourths last Saturday.

Wielding his big Gray Nicolls bat, he brought up his century off the second last ball of the day as his side racked up 6-428 against Carrum Downs at Baxter Park.

While it was Brereton’s third ton, his young teammate Jobe Gardner scored his maiden century, 117.

Dermott Brereton said taking part in the 2019 series of I'm A Celebrity ... Get me Out Of Here! was one of the hardest things he’s done.

Brereton spent a month in the South African jungle and shed more than 11kg, describing the experience as one of the hardest things he’s done.

The five-time premiership player has his eye on another flag.

Bereton is captain of Heatherhill’s fourths, who are sitting on top of the ladder and shooting for back-to-back titles.

STILL at Heatherhill and all eyes will be on Sixths captain Roger “Reggie’’ Crew next week.

If he loses the toss against Baden Powell in the final round, it will mean he’s lost every toss of the season — unheard of in cricket.

Crew has lost 16 tosses in a row — it’s believed to be a world record. His streak started last season, when he lost the toss in the last four rounds, and he’s lost all 12 flips this season.
