Re: Who's got the higher ceiling..Nick Welch, Bennett or Matty Welch?

I think Clive is good. Is there a keeper in that lineup?

Re: Antum Naqvi

Secret, the point is not to find another person who has a more tenuous link to play national cricket for their country. You win! Not that it matters. The point I am trying to make is that international cricket isn't like it used to be and residency rules are used as are "blood" of relatives. You may...

Re: Antum Naqvi

Yeah that Tom Cooper. He is only playing for them because he cannot play for Aussie. I am not going to argue about how passionately he feels about being Dutch because neither you or I know that. My point was more about that the days of 11 test cricketers being 11 native born people are long gone. I ...

Re: Antum Naqvi

They do have a birthright..I just don't think they are particularly Dutch and I am sure you guys don't when we play them.

Re: Antum Naqvi

PJ was a bad example. So I retract that. I know he played cricket in Ireland for three years. If we are cross because he isn't Zimbabwean, then I was more making the pont I don't think PJ is Irish and he can play for Ireland. But yes bad example. I see no difference between him and Tom Cooper who pl...

Re: Antum Naqvi

So fuck. If he wants to play for Zim.good for him l (and us if he is good). International cricket representative rules are a joke. Look at the Dutch team. Or Ireland. Or England! Honestly, I don't see the difference between him and, say, PJ. I don't care where his Granny is from he is also as Irish ...

Re: Where to from here?

Who was the third? Us, WI and ..? Again hindsight but agree wholeheartedly. We were two batters short. Larry was a gamble that didn't come off and again not sure whose decision that was and Welly just gets penned in. It's easy to criticise from the side lines and after the fact, but it did seem rat...

Re: Where to from here?

Look I hate the board but by their own pigmy limbo contest bar, they have done well of late. Cleared the debt. Got back Ballance (not their fault he fucked up). Employed Dave. I am not sure they are to blame. I mean they are always to blame but not for this. And the players didn't choke. That is suc...

Re: Where to from here?

Team for four years hence

Gumbie
Kaia
Bennett
Wes
Welch
Burl
Madande
Mavuta
Evans
Richard
Blessing

That assumes Welch comes back. It looks a lot weaker than this one.
