  1. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    When he wasn't crazy....He is crazy though.
     
  2. Incey BC Jacobs

    "Was" - Keyword.
     
  3. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    He still is.
     
  4. Incey BC Jacobs

    Was referring to that Boob.
     
  5. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    Ah fair enough.


    Anywho, I rate Tunza CC as the best side.
     
  6. Speirz DG Speirs

    Pot. Kettle. Black.
     
  7. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    My statement can't be proven incorrect at this point, just opinion at the mo.
     
  8. Julian BJ Taylor

    It will be though.
     
  9. Incey BC Jacobs

    Lol there is no way Tunza is the best side. Lolz.

    I'd like to know why you rate the Lighthouses so low, Julian?
    Is it just the bowling attack, and if so, does the signature of Andra Adams change this view?
     
  11. Julian BJ Taylor

    Ah.

    Link me to that post and I'll tell you :p

    I have a feeling it was mid draft and you hadn't bolstered your bowling yet.
     
  12. Julian BJ Taylor

    Yes. But unlike 90% of his games at county level he will be playing against the World's best in most games. Test records will figure heavily I reckon. He won't be terrible, but he won't average mid to low twenties with the ball, just as Hall won't for me.
     
  13. Ged GEC King

    Yeah. Like the second post in the thread. Hence the question does andre Adams change it. I'm really undecided on my team. My batting is littered with quality first class performers who have either never been given an opportunity in test cricket, or have had a very limited one. My bowling, on the other hand, is almost the opposite with my three frontliners all being current test players in the infancy of their careers averaging slightly above their fc average. The one thing in my team's favour is the lack of retired past it players but Ashwell Prince is pretty mcuh the only experienced, well performed, current test player in the squad. Sharma and Mendis are on their way as is Watson, you would think.
     
  14. Julian BJ Taylor

    Who was your 13th player Ged?

    A spinner?
     
  15. Ged GEC King

    Nah. Went for a reserve batsman in Mark Butcher. Probably a shit selection but I wanted a bloke that's been a captain before and had experience.
     
  16. Julian BJ Taylor

    I do like your team now I've looked at it. Your batting will be more than fine considering you'll have Hopes at 8 and Adams/Taylor at 9.

    The only reason i think you might struggle a touch (in real life anyway) is because besides Sharma you don't seem to have a genuine strike seamer. Taylor, Adams, Hopes and Watson, are IMO, stock bowlers. But they are good ones. You'll be one of the contenders in this though, because your bat picks were smart. For instance Hussey, Rogers and Watson will not be failures in this, you would think.
     
  17. Julian BJ Taylor

    Nah you'll be sweet. You'll be like me though IMO and be consistent with bat and ball rather than bowl ****s out for 150 all the time.

    There will be a lot of draws in this as people are purposely batting really low.
     
  18. Sultan Pepper HG Emm

    I rate the teams as being equally gay.
     
  19. Incey BC Jacobs

    Julian to make a new list of the teams IMO>
     
  20. Ged GEC King

    I leant a bit more towards stock bowlers for the simple reason that I think that Mendis will be very erratic in this. So I wanted consistent performers after making my first two selections of Mendis and Sharma.
