    Could be a good S9 curtain raiser after the \_/

    EDIT: Beaten by Farny's edit :p Ye but its not just a short period of form, he's been pretty good over a few seasons too... don't know much about Davis' form though.

    Yeh me too. SoO is the big one and we aren't ever gonna get a chance. Which is why this'd be class!

    Hayes is criminally under-rated due to his low postcount, dire OD batting and poor form this season.

    First Class Cricket
    MR Hayes - 9019 runs @ 47.72
    RST Downpipes - 12,319 runs @ 44.31

    It wasn't that long ago people were comparing him to Gemmell. The argument for Rusty would be, I guess, that he has a better Origin record, which is fair enough I suppose, but Hayes cops fair too much random criticism. Quality bat.

    Vago's been a bit of a failure at rep level. His record for Queensland against New South Wales is poor. His overall Queensland record is actually decentish now as he bashed Victoria's bowlers but he's always struggled against good attacks at the highest level.

    Yeah. Unless GB miraculously get to an awesome standard.
     
  6. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    We will make GB the fiercest province in cricsim one day :p
     
  7. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    Hmm.. but surely if your going on averages alone Luffman should be there :p


    Aw well that would explain Vagos emission.

    We actually played a few Tests against New Zealand. It was a bit confusing though because people failed to comprehend the difference between New Zealand the CricSim province and New Zealand the Test team... particularly once Peaches decided he was going to discard his CricSim eligibility and play for New Zealand.

    First Test
    Second Test
    Third Test

    Luffers hasn't done it over a long enough period of time.. or we'd put Dafter and Freely in. :p
     
  10. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    Ye I was joking.
     
  11. Luffers JRE Luffman

    The fact he is completely inactive may have something to do with it. I'd like to see a side who are compeltely active as our representative's for the whole of Cricsim.

    I would consider an active person ahead of him ITBT.

    Equally I understand why he's in the side same as Bullpitt.
     
  12. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Even so, it'd just give us four good teams rather than a true best against the best type thing.
     
  13. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    Ye it does involve making stats for all the RL players though.
     
  14. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    TBF Bullpitt has been more active now though.
     
  15. Luffers JRE Luffman

    Yeh I would have to average 50+ for at least another season.
     
  16. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    Need to have 2 selectors who draft a squad 1 pick at a time to do it perfectly fairly....
     
  17. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    I would make love to you if you did :p

    Personally I'd like to see a Test Series take place during the season like in Real Life.

    It'll mean teams who have all the best players for various reasons would have to have some depth and competition in their sides. Plus it'd be extremely cool and give SoO Pc and STPC some meaning.

    In my mind it would make Cricsim ultra realistic and enjoyable. Some people might moan about "ohh all our good players are gone for too long" but you could just make a 3 Test matches= last 1 full Round (BS HC ALC HP) that's fairly realistic, without being to much of a burden.

    It'd create more work for you Cribb but it would be so awesome I can hardly describe it!
     
  19. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Nah, then you'd just be playing for something completely random.

    If we're to have anything like this, it'll be what I suggested in the first post. Lots of people already moan about how much rep cricket and OD cricket there is these days though so it's not looking likely at this stage. :p
     
  20. Farny AP Farnsworth

    Haha, that would be cool....A Cribb Select XI vs an (insert name here) Select XI, taking turns with picks. Pointless, but cool.
