The only negative thing I can say is that Flower knew he was signing off and Olonga had little idea of the repercussions. He looks fit, fat and flourishing though. Great bloke.

I once walked on the pitch late at night after a game at HSC and there was sawdust in Henry's prints on his run up.
Eveey one of his strides was literally a long jump for me, he was an unbelievable athlete, as was his brother Victor, who played Zim rugby.

That household must have had a very interesting dynamic. Whilst Henry generally liked white folk, or the guys that were decent to him, Victor was hugely anti- the exact polar opposite of his brother. :lol:

He did mention that his fiancé was related to Mugabe too

Jeez people really love to dig out Raza. It's so weird.
It’s un fathomable really. He’s been our best player this game, as always.

Tsiga looks like a good bat. Hope he sticks around with BB.

Zim fans are amazing!

Zimbabwe deserve more matches in England, NZ, SA and Australia. Even the USA. Huge zimbo population there
