Just wondering though whats going to happen with Kenty, Russ and Craig? Have been very handy bowlers over the years, will they get pushed aside for Jimmy, Feltus, Stama and Bomber and will they be happy with not getting as much of a run. Its all very well to bring in talent but if the existing players get agro it can quickly bring a club down.
Lastly, Catchit and Jimmy, sign long term deals? 2,3 or even 4 year deal?
i dont quite know who Brahma and OTH have recruited, there has not been a whole heap of talk on here about it. but just because there might not be the sheer volume of recruitment like R&C, dus not mean that they have not picked up a couple of quality players. we already see both teams have strength in depth, coz both teams i believe have had their B grade sides promoted to div 2 which is goin to help players moving up and down the grades no ends... if these teams pick up 1 or 2 players in addition to keeping last seasons players, with the development of their lower grades... never write them off. we have seen the success off SW over the last however many years, not just because of the quality of their A grade, but because of their depth and strength in their Bs... Brahma and OTH could follow a similar suit... what grade are RCs Bs in??? if u add a couple of injuries (like a broken leg for Stama

) would the players coming into the side be able to fill the void created. OTH and Brahma may just reap the rewards of consistency because of quantity of quality, rather than quality in their first XI alone
