essentially just stirring the forum and doing a good job of trolling and riling up the fan base
No trolling, riling or stirring anywhere here. Read the posts, and see just how many of your colleague conveniently agreed with me in my absence. Many have given up arguing factually because there's nowhere to turn. Their stats will inevitably prove mine.
Some thought they wouldn't get their wish, but they did - "those players" were dropped in abundance - and it's become a nightmare. Instead they are now in denial of the shocking depths to which Zimbabwe have plummeted as a result. Can't even celebrate the SL series win properly because Hami, Mire and Tari did it pretty much all on their own.
I predicted all of this, the same way I predict Taylor & Jarvis won't make a difference to Zimbabwe. They will remain the whipping boys of Afghanistan.
We should be asking how much Ireland are paying Joyce and Rankin, and what luxuries they have.
I'd definitely be more concerned about the Chinese.
There are way more Chinese in SA than there will ever be in ZIM. Chinese are virtually underground here. You'll never see a Chinese wedding, funeral, birth, police case etc. They are invincible and prefer to keep things that way. You'll almost never bump into a Chinese after 7pm in 95% of the places in SA. I'm big on Chinese food once every 2 weeks at worst, and have it mostly at their restaurants. I never bump into those guys anywhere else.
