Just heard tonight Brendan Hall has signed on as Collendinas new coach for this season, should be interesting to see how he goes!

Didn't see Stuey Clark pulling up many trees at 21. Give the kid a chance!

Spot on. You can tell if a kid has the basics to become a top bowler by the time they're 19 or so. It then (usually) takes time to learn the craft to actually become a top bowler...

Haha Dag's Riches loves it!

He has done some tremendous jobs for the tigers, really good listnener who i'm sure will learn more as he gets older.
Was probably asked to do to much really because we were short of numbers thru injury and availability, hopefully get a few more around him this season.

Still learning the craft as a 21year old.
Get him and Joffa Bosworth fired up and working in tandem for us, things are looking promising.

And yes can hit a big ball when he gets a hold of it, just ask him ;)

If he's 21 and hasn't learnt where to pitch the ball by know then, either the coaches down there are no good or he ain't gunna get it all.

what game are you talking about swing king?
he took alot of wickets, bowled alot of overs last season and went at less than 3 and over.

i've played with Anderton, Castle, Hucker and they all bowl the occasional bad one but are regarded as some of the best the GCA has seen in recent years, i'm sure even harper, hornett and muzza get hit for 4 everynow and then. we can't all be clint foord's and go for one an over everyweek!

:confused: surely a fast bowler is allowed to bowl a bad one every so often?[/QUOTE]

Try telling that to old Bushy Thompson one day and see how u go:D

No offence to the kid but Richies and top bowlers shouldn't be spoken in the same breath.

i don't mind a bit of criticism here and there but to say that a 21 year old is never going to be anygood because he bowls the occasional bad ball is a load of trollop.
ask ross aylmer how much he has learnt since he was 21.

Mate please dont bring up Ross Aylmer in this, Richies is a O.K div2 bowler and I'm being jenerous there. Ross was averaging 40 in GCA div1 1st by 21.

Take it easy buddy, we'll see if you blokes ever get up to div1 if he's leading your attack then??

his not the best bowler in division 2 i agree with you on that one, i never said he was. his probably the 3rd best seamer we have when we have a full-fit squad available, as i said earlier he was asked to do too much last season because for whatever reason, injury or availability.
for you to say that he won't ever be any good cos his 21 and cant put the ball in the right area is ridiculous.
i only bought up ross aylmer because i was arguing that over a long period of time you acquire knowledge of the game and your ability and what your strengths and weaknesses are, i'm sure he knows more about his game now than what he did in 1988.

And who would be your top 2 then?

The phantom man Bosworth who's always injured? who else? and don't say Castle coz he hasn't been playing 1s for a while now.

how old do you have to be to realise where to bowl it? 31? 41? 51?

I said his 3rd pick when we have a full-squad to choose from.
Joffa is injured alot yes agreed.
Castle works alot so can't train.

He knows where to bowl it, just obviously had a bad day the day Mr Swing King saw him bowl. Everyone has them, i'm sure even you Mr Wrong 'Un have been out of form once or twice in your career?

Look I got no problem with his bowling seen him maybe twice and seemed honest enough, but don't think he should be named in the top 10 in the comp, thats all.

You Thomson blokes take it to heart, maybe stop worring about whats said on here and show us on the field instead of dropping names and telling us how goos youse are.
