Thread about Rising Stars train wreck before it happens

Isn't Matsikenyeri the RS coach?

Yes

Then they'll definitely get a SUb 60 score!

Matsi could actually turn out to be one of the better coaches in the country I feel, as he knows his own shortcomings at the highest level. He was a supremely talented kid, who could not achieve what was expected of him, so there are lessons to be passed on I guess. Liam Roche, for one, has come out of his tutelage for example...

So now you want to make this stupid decision about Matsi?

Someone remind me again why the Southern Rocks were culled?

Has India B/C toured this year? Will they tour next year? And thbyear after that?(To this day CSA is broke becuase they upset India by appointing Haroon Lorgat) How will ZC afford these inflated long-term salaries for players who are weaker than some top international talent on much lesser wages; as well as continue to pay these "Rising" "Stars"? By qualifying for a CWC it will be "understandable" if they fail to qualify for???

Assemble 15 top youngsters and put them into the FC competition then replenish them with u19s who can't beat Pupua New Guinea or some Indian villages! About the dumbest idea to come out of ZC!!!

So what must the ICC/MCC do if the Goats crush this team by a record margin? Allow it to stand?

How are Cremer's stats against RS any different from the Logan Cup stats of years past when the likes of Dabengwa were ripping through sides? If I remember correctly, many here in this very forum still don't acceptthise stats. So why accept Cremer's 10WM for next to no runs? Because you love Cremer's hairdo, and think RS is a brilliant idea that will bear fruit in the future?

Absolutely nonsensical!!!

In fact this Rising Stars - Logan Cup idea really ticks me off, probably far more than anything I've ever come across regarding Zimbabwe cricket. This is my last comment on this subject.

HHm wants the good old days of OB & PC running the game when we played no matches and players never got paid.

With the new regime Zimbabwe has fixtures, quality players and a future

But now its "Pakis" who know what they are doing in charge, instead of blacks who's only interest in cricket is pocketing as much money as possible whilst simaltaneously not having any knowledge of either management or the game.

Thank the Lord !!!!!!

What fixtures?

A domestic cricket calendar that starts this late, and is filled with non-FC fixtures?

Hosting loss-making SL(because India C won't come down to spank you), something the "old ZC" used to reject for financial sense?

Plenty of matches against Namibia, Canada, Netherlands etc? Tours to Scotland and Netherlands?

Being humiliated by an SA Emerging side which happens to be the strongest side ZIM have faced, arguably stronger than even the SL who came down?

Unbelievable!

So now you want to make this stupid decision about Matsi?

Who wants Matsi to replace Hondo as the Zimbabwe A coach...
