    Meet the new Vipers President


    When you think Vipers, you think Gaylor. Ryan Gee, the man who single handily helped the Vipers live once again. And if it wasn’t for all his hard work, the club would not be in the position it is now. Now with Gee stepping aside to take a more minor role at the Vipers, his replacement Tom Delonge is excited about the idea of being on top of the Vipers hierarchy for Season 11 and beyond.

    While he has been involved in board positions for quite some time now, he has always been destined to become the Vipers next President. One of his integral members at the Vipers, James Torres is arguably one of the best wingmen in the current CricSim set-up and Delonge is very lucky to have him on board leading into his “debut” season as President.

    With a First Class batting average of 41.95, Delonge is vital in the Vipers top order batting line-up as well and will hope to continue this form for the rest of this season and onto the next one. While his form hasn't been brilliant this season, just knowing his capabilities is enough to halt any doubt you may have over Delonge’s credentials (unless you were to look into his bowling statistics, my advice, don’t do it, it hurts your eyes).

    Vipers Media sat down with Delonge earlier this week to discuss all things Presidential and Season 10.

    Vipers Media: Tom, you are the new Vipers Season 11 President. Are you excited about this idea?

    Delonge: Of course I'm excited, who wouldn't be really. It has been a long time coming and just hoping I can take over where Gaylor left off and just continue the success of the past few seasons.

    Vipers Media: What will you look at bringing to the club? Any specific changes from Gee's rein?

    Delonge: Not really. Gaylor has done an awesome job in signing a bunch of loyal blokes that love being here, and with a couple of prospective signings and only one or two players looking at leaving, there isn't much I really need to do.

    Vipers Media: On to Season 10 and who do you feel have been the best players for the Vipers?

    Delonge:There's been a couple of stand outs. Luffman has been his usual self at the top of the order, averaging 66. Both myself and Torres have both been in form with the bat as well, both averaging over 50 in all First Class matches. Bowling has been a little disappointing with Blunder throwing down his usual “pies” and Eggman being a little off song, so I'd say our batting has been our strong point.

    Vipers Media: Is there anyone in particular you would like to see step-up in the lead-up to the finals?

    Delonge: Well I'd say DA Eggman getting back to his best would be an awesome prospect and make us very hard to beat. He tore through the Gamblers last match, so that's a very good sign hopefully.

    Just when you thought Delonge couldn’t get any better as a president, a player or a bloke. He jokingly added at the conclusion of his interview “just a shout-out to Samantha Turner, she is a babe”. We all know that Delonge’s taste in women is pretty much perfect. Afterall, who doesn’t like Tim’s Mum?
