Get into Grade cricket as soon as possible. Ask if you can go down and train, or otherwise you might have to work your way up the ranks of a sub-grade (we call it sub-district in Vic), then once you have impressed try out with a grade club. If that is where you want to go, that's how you have to...
Re: Test XI Selection Thread - NZ Tour
I think your problem is you never explicitly label your point. Every time you come close to it you start going off on unexplainable tangents. Excise me as I'm extremely drunk right now, but why are you saying that "his true colours will shine through...
Re: Test XI Selection Thread - NZ Tour
I'd put a guy who averaged 70 with the bat this year at number 6. It doesn't matter "if his true colours shine through", because what if they never do? Would you maybe take into your flawed logic that Smith can actually be a very good player of both, he...
Re: Test XI Selection Thread - NZ Tour
Does he have to be anything? Can't he just be an all rounder. He knows what he is, now stop making petty excuses for your dislike of the decision and back up your argument with some real evidence or at least some bold statements rather than being...
Re: NMCA Juniors 09/10
I think he's trying to say there's a difference in the way they go about it, that they cross certain lines, but it's not a great time to bring it up, they've just won a GF.
Re: NMCA Juniors 09/10
I'm the first to admit the airport west kids talk a lot of crap out on the field, but most teams have a few guys from other comps.
Re: NMCA Juniors 09/10
Was a great match to watch.
142 vs. 142, Socials rocked Rivergum early but they recovered, there was a tad too much excessive appealing IMO, but a thrilling match, bad luck to the Socials, they gave it a big shake.
Re: West Indies in Australia
I don't mean to sound overly judgemental but how do you know this? All we see is the end result. Many hours of hard work have been put in, and wil continue to be put in by Warner to get better. Of these hours, I think he would practise batting defensively, all we...
Re: West Indies in Australia
Why? He has a clear plan, executes it and does it well. Something needed in all forms of cricket. He has also shown he can outthink the bowlers.
Re: Who will win the Allan Border Medal?
LTD you're missing the point. We're not saying that he's no good and shouldn't have been picked, well at least I'm not. We're saying that batsmen who have out performed him domestically had a right to be pissed off when he was selected to tour ahead of them.
Re: Who will win the Allan Border Medal?
And that is the way sides should be picked. After all Matthew Hayden was one of the best talents in the world but was edged out of the team because he wasn't making runs and others were.
Re: NMCA Juniors 09/10
Rivergum will still be sitting pretty on top of the ladder, but if they lose it shows they can be beaten. Socials need to not get complacent, we saw what happened when Baseballers rolled Rivergum and still lost.
Re: Who will win the Allan Border Medal?
Watson is possibly my favourite player in the side, but to say that he is a far better batsman than Jaques and Rogers is ridiculous, despite how good Watson is now, if he wasn't making the runs, he wasn't a good batsman.
I don't care how you look like...
